Antigama: Stop the Chaos EP (Selfmadegod, 5/22/12)
“The Law”
[audio:https://alarm-magazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Antigama_The_Law.mp3|titles=Antigama: “The Law”]This EP from progressive grindcore act Antigama ends with a familiar swooshing sound that usually precedes the beginning of a new track. Listeners are thus left with the impression that there’s more to come, and that Stop the Chaos might actually be a teaser for a longer offering. (A relatively restrained ambient soundscape, the EP’s final track also lines up nicely if you have music of another genre cued up to play after it on your playlist.) Still, though Antigama deftly plays the leave-them-wanting-more card, the Polish quartet packs no small measure of substance into Stop the Chaos’ 15-minute run time.
