|      | With 2017's Savage Sinusoid, Igorrr more than proved to be a truly   |
|      | unique musical force - and 2020's Spirituality And Distortion        |
|      | cements that well-earned reputation. Slamming together disparate     |
|      | musical styles ranging from death and black metal to breakcore,      |
|      | Balkan, baroque and classical music in a manner that is as           |
|      | unconventional and unpredictable as it is thrilling, Igorrr are      |
|      | unlike any other act, and Spirituality And Distortion displays just  |
|      | as broad a range of emotions as sounds. "Getting stuck in only one   |
|      | emotion is very boring to me; life is a wide range of emotions -     |
|      | sometimes you're happy, sometimes you're sad, angry, pissed off,     |
|      | nostalgic or blown away," states mastermind Gautier Serre. "Life is  |
|      | not only one color. These 14 tracks are a journey through different  |
|      | states of mind I've been through."                                   |
|      |                                                                      |
|      | Admitting that upon starting work on the record he lacked            |
|      | confidence in realizing it - "I was not sure at all of what I was    |
|      | doing, where it was gonna lead, or if I would be able to make an     |
|      | album with it or not, I was just following my instinct and seeing    |
|      | where it might reach" - one influence pushed through and is a        |
|      | prominent part of Spirituality And Distortion: traditional eastern   |
|      | music. "No idea where it comes from, but the colors of those sounds  |
|      | inspired me a lot. It's something I've been extremely attracted to.  |
|      | Those sounds have a real deepness in the emotional range, and        |
|      | combined with heavy music, it's something which took me very deep    |
|      | into myself, and which pushed me into doing tracks like 'Downgrade   |
|      | Desert', 'Camel Dancefloor', 'Himalaya Massive Ritual' or            |
|      | 'Overweight Poesy'." At no stage was there any plan, embracing the   |
|      | freedom offered in the wake of achieving Savage Sinusoid and going   |
|      | wherever ideas took him, embracing a small army of specialist        |
|      | musicians to help him attain his vision. Importantly, like its       |
|      | predecessor, this is not a predominantly electronic record. "The     |
|      | organization part has been more complicated as we had to fly         |
|      | traditional instrumentalists to our studio, so, lots of planes,      |
|      | trains and cars were involved to make it happen, but all the         |
|      | acoustic instruments have been recorded traditionally, with no help  |
|      | of the computer." These included violinist Timba Harris, bassist     |
|      | Mike Leon, pianist Matt Lebofsky, Oud player Mehdi Haddab,           |
|      | accordion player Pierre Mussi, Kanoun player Fotini Kokkala and      |
|      | harpsichordist Benjamin Bardiaux, among others. Vocally, the most    |
|      | prominent performer is Laure Le Prunenec, whose operatic strains     |
|      | are a longtime part of the Igorrr mix, while regular collaborator    |
|      | Laurent Lunoir also appears on a few tracks. Serre also invited      |
|      | Pierre Lacasa and Jasmine Barra back to the studio (known from       |
|      | their appearance on previous tracks like "Vegetable Soup" and        |
|      | "Cheval") to appear on "Kung-Fu ChΦvre" and got to realize a dream   |
|      | with one guest performer. "We had the honor to welcome my personal   |
|      | favorite musical hero on this album: George 'Corpsegrinder' Fisher   |
|      | of Cannibal Corpse. He screams on the track 'Parpaing', and his      |
|      | legendary voice brings the heaviness this track deserved. George is  |
|      | like the final boss of death metal. Like on a video game you have    |
|      | the final boss who is the strongest, George is the best in death     |
|      | metal singing. Due to the extreme heaviness and violence of his      |
|      | voice, I found it very much coherent to contrast it with a cheap     |
|      | tune of 8bit music which is the least heavy music on earth. The      |
|      | contrast is beautiful to my ears." However, lyrics are less          |
|      | important when he is creating, and often these are delivered in      |
|      | languages he does not even speak. "As with the previous albums, I'm  |
|      | entirely focused on the sound itself and how the sonorities of the   |
|      | voice speaks to the heart, not the intellectual meaning of the       |
|      | words."                                                              |
|      |                                                                      |
|      | Ever unconventional, the title for the record came from              |
|      | circumstances most musicians would never experience. "At the         |
|      | beginning, I chose to call one of the tracks 'Spirituality And       |
|      | Distortion' as on this track there were deep oriental sounds with    |
|      | heavy distorted guitars that I made by putting fire on the cabs of   |
|      | my amplifier. Doing that, I found the perfect split between the      |
|      | spirituality and the distortion, which are two perfectly opposite    |
|      | concepts, and later on, I noticed that it was the case with not      |
|      | only one, but many tracks of the album - the heavy distortion due    |
|      | to the settings and the actual fire, and the spiritual mood that     |
|      | the middle eastern instruments were giving to the soul. This title   |
|      | represents pretty well the split between two opposite feelings, and  |
|      | that is the same feeling you have after you listen to the album."    |
|      | Tracked at Improve Tone Studios in France, Serre employed the same   |
|      | technical crew as on Savage Sinusoid but chose again to work with    |
|      | no outside producers, uncomfortable with giving his "baby" to        |
|      | anyone else, and 100% confident in his own abilities to achieve      |
|      | that which he intends once in the studio environment and surrounded  |
|      | by his selected instrumentalists. He admits, however, that the       |
|      | sessions were very, very intensive this time around. "I got closed   |
|      | inside the studio for a very long time without having a break. The   |
|      | difference with 'Savage Sinusoid' is that I did the same amount of   |
|      | work but over a much longer period of time. The 'Spirituality And    |
|      | Distortion' sessions were much more intense in that I did it in a    |
|      | much shorter time; it was intensive work to push myself to the       |
|      | hardest limits I could endure. To be honest, I suffered pretty much  |
|      | in the process of creating this album, and I'm very happy, despite   |
|      | all the difficulties - technical and human - that I succeed to not   |
|      | let go even the smallest bit of the quality I wanted for this        |
|      | album. Also, if this new music was not better than the last record   |
|      | in my mind, I wouldn't release it."                                  |
|      |                                                                      |
