PINCER CONSORTIUM news:

We are presently working on the new Pincer Consortium material, tentatively titled ‘Tetrad Divination’, which is more ambitious in scope, and a further grand concept that will venture beyond the parameters of our previous endeavour, yet exist as a detailed parallel subplot within its universe, where each song, by way of Pete Dempsey’s labyrinthine lyrical stylings, describes the 4 fundamental forces of nature, relating to the unified field theory with a layer of dramatisation, telling how an unhinged researcher uses black magic and hallucinogenic substances to discover the secrets of the universe while risking his soul, by forcing an audience with the gods of knowledge, all of this intricately woven into the extraordinary strides of Maciek Pasinski’s hyper-progressive musical patterns.

Tetrad: a group or set of four.
Divination: the practice of using occult or supernatural means to gain insight into a situation or question.

In the meantime:
The Consortium has published the last layer of the Geminus Schism concept. A full-length video consisting of all episodes has been added to our YT channel. If you have an hour to spare and feel like indulging in a tar-gazing stupor - proceed through the portal.

PINCER CONSORTIUM "Geminus Schism".

MMXIX: after crossing underground paths in Belfast, Poland’s Maciek Pasinski (ex-Sirrah, TheMANcalledTEA, qip) and Ireland’s Pete Dempsey of ‘Scald’ agreed to join forces with a view to creating various extreme musical projects beginning with the now defunct Scald’s unreleased material with positive results. Following this, it was time to get down to a more intensive collaborative arrangement with the focus turning to the formation of a fresh endeavor, unconnected to their standing and previous bands. This new dark pact would soon come to be known as ‘Pincer Consortium’.

MMXXI: after weaving a complex black-worded lyrical tapestry in the style of a dualistic chronicle representing the phases of conflict between metaphorical, multi-level opposing forces, and with the duo designated its new two-pronged syndicate name, Dempsey presented this grand Odyssean tome to Pasinski who began work on bolstering the concept with a hard-forged, vast auditory repertoire in the mold of a hyper-progressive, industrial, death, black metal recital, sound-tracking a descending pyramid of critical existential stages, under the over-arching life, death and rebirth of the universe; the finished article now manifesting itself and is going to be released by Deformeathing Production as the ‘Geminus Schism’ album.

Three singles are available via pincerconsortium.bandcamp.com/
