Liner notes. Mayan Records, MYNDD056.〕 The project's style has changed dramatically throughout the years venturing into post-metal, ambient, industrial metal and sometimes post-rock.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= 豆瓣 - Gigantic Brain World )〕 ==Biography== Gigantic Brain began as a one-man drum-machine powered electronic grindcore and post-metal project created by John Brown. It is noted for being vastly different from the majority of electronic grindcore bands. Gigantic Brain have very dense sound, often inspired by dark science fiction and futuristic concepts. In 2012 after a two year hiatus from the project, Gigantic Brain became a duo with the addition of producer and multi-instrumentalist Mastin Simmons. In 2003 Gigantic Brain released a split 10” with Umbrella on Crucificados Pelo Sistema. By the end of 2003, Gigantic Brain had recorded material for a full-length album which was to be titled "Our Bovine Destroyers". The album would never see its own formal release, but in 2004 Gigantic Brain released the massive 63 track “The Invasion Discography” on Razorback Records. "The Invasion Discography" cataloged all the band's material up until that point. The album received critical acclaim and was met with praise throughout the grindcore community. Two albums and one EP were released in 2009 (World, Betelgeuse EP, I Swallow 16 Red Planets), consisting of a different sound with ambient and minimalist influences yet still powerful with its grindcore roots. In 2010 the album ‘They Did This to Me’ was released. After a two year hiatus from the project the announcement of a new Gigantic Brain album was made. The album is being recorded by the duo form of the band featuring Brown and Simmons. The album is stated to be released sometime in 2013 or early 2014. Gigantic Brain announced that the album’s sound is to feature a “heavily updated” version of their production values and style. On November 7 2013, Gigantic Brain began releasing singles leading up to the release of their upcoming album. Thus far they have released 4 new songs on two individual singles. At one time all of the Gigantic Brain releases were available for free download on their website. In September 2011 the band's back catalog was re-released, and is currently available from, Grindcore Karaoke.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Grindcore Karaoke )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gigantic Brain」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
