Giant Squid - the band and the brushes
There is a band from Northern California called “Giant Squid”. They describe their sound as “eclectic indie-metal” and this press release makes the following comparisons:
Any fan of artistically intelligent and organically heavy indie-rock music, in the vein of ISIS, SONIC YOUTH, PLEASURE FOREVER, BLACK HEART PROCESSION, TARANTULA HAWK, MY BLOODY VALENTINE, PELICAN, MOGWAI, ULVER, NEUROSIS, TARENTAL, HIGH ON FIRE, or classic rock and punk like BLACK SABBATH and the SUBHUMANS, should appreciate the band’s worship of guitar overdrive, somber interludes, and tide-like build ups.
If you are interested, there is more information and sample downloads on their website. Even if this sort of music isn’t your style it is still worth visiting their website to download the excellent Photoshop brush set. Well worth it if you use Photoshop and like painting with sea creatures.
