The Great Liberation Through Hearing

Modder is a five-piece sludge & doom formation hailing from Ghent, Belgium. With riffs designed to make your neck break, supported by thundering basslines, grooving drums, industrialist samples and synths, they forge a unique sound in the sludge landscape. Modder is already making plans to continue to crush audiences with their sonic mayhem in 2024 and beyond. All this with one goal in mind: to obliterate every stage as they take their riff worship to the highest possible sound-level. Modder, among other sources, look towards 'The Bardo Thodol' (The Tibetan Book of the Dead) for inspiration, and have used it as one of the guides to complete "The Great Liberation Through Hearing'. This new record also saw all five members bringing their songwriting ideas to the table, and in doing so, taking the music of Modder to the so called 'next level'. The band has not been scared to implement an even wider variety of styles this time, ranging from grind- & thrash-metal to elements of psytrance/electronic music. Artwork and design for 'The Great Liberation Through Hearing' is delivered anew by the distinguished, UK based graphic-artist 'Throne' and came about after close collaboration with the band.
