The Kompressor Experiment premiere new live session of Liminal Space
Swiss Instrumental Post-Progressive Metallers The Kompressor Experiment released their third album “Ebb & Flow” on April 19 via Sunday Fog Records. Darker and more frantic than ever, the 7 tracks present a view of the history of mankind, its uncertain beginnings (‘Endure The Sky’, ‘Riss-Würm’), through its exponential development (‘Epigenesis’), its infinite violent cycles (‘Tooth & Nail’, ‘Castle Bravo I and II’) to end on a hope for resilience (‘Liminal Space’). Musically, the album draws from post-metal and prog-metal, with influences such as The Ocean, Leprous or Russian Circles while integrating elements from electronic music and offering a greater presence to synthesizers.
Today, the band is presenting a brand new live session for ‘Liminal Space’, the last song song on the album, exclusively here on The Progspace:
“As we were finishing the production of our latest album “Ebb & Flow”, we decided to put a professional live session together. We worked with our usual partners in crime (Ludovic Volper – sound, Tibère Reichler – Lights, Nils Martenet – video) and recorded a live performance of the whole album at Le Port Franc (Sion, Switzerland). The industrial setting of this venue inspired our choice for this location.
“Liminal Space” is the bittersweet conclusion of the album, therefore it’s the last track of this session. We decided to go full throttle here with warm colors, raging strobes and flashing neons. The lightshow oscillates between atmospheres and frantic syncopations, which perfectly fits the writing of this song.”
