BIG|BRAVE’s music has been described as massive minimalism. Their fusillades of textural distortion and feedback emphasise their music’s frayed edges as much as its all-encompassing weight. The potency of the trio’s work is their singular artistry, combining elements of traditional folk techniques and a modern deconstruction of guitar music. Gain, feedback, and amplitude are essential to 2024’s A Chaos Of Flowers, an album that builds on their ferocious 2023 album Nature Morte.
Lyrically, the songs explore the most vulnerable of human experiences, how marginalisations manifest internally and externally, the inner struggles of isolation, and co-existence in nature. A Chaos of Flowers draws on catharsis and beauty as well as the quagmire of disorientation and othering. The album is a monument of simultaneous serenity and disquiet, a subtle maelstrom of internal life.
Later this year, they will release OST, their most naked and austere record to date, showcasing the trio’s preternatural instincts and deep musical intuition. Conceived as a score for an imagined film, the album was born from improvisation rather than composition.
