Gigan

A Chicago-based extreme metal unit founded by left-handed lead guitarist and multi-instrumentalist Eric Hersemann, Gigan employ a lethal blend of technical death metal, grindcore, thrash, and psych rock. Formed in 2005 in Tampa, Florida, where Hersemann had been honing his skills in bands like <a href="spotify:artist:15GygzQHeg7bjfowjyLvyH">Diabolic</a> and <a href="spotify:artist:4Ru4H8nvpjbqHFStsJJcHV">Hate Eternal</a>, the group would eventually grow into a trio, with Hersemann handling songwriting duties as well as guitar, bass, theremin, synths, xylophone, and Otamatone; Nathan Cotton behind the kit; and Jerry Kavouriaris on vocals. The band's first two LPs, the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Napalm%22">Napalm</a>-issued Order of the False Eye and the <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Willowtip%22">Willowtip</a>-released Quasi-Hallucinogenic Sonic Landscapes, were released while the band was still operating out of Tampa. In 2013, Gigan relocated to the Windy City and released their critically acclaimed third studio long-player, Multi-Dimensional Fractal-Sorcery and Super Science, again via <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Willowtip%22">Willowtip</a>. In September 2017, the band issued its highly anticipated fourth full-length outing, Undulating Waves of Rainbiotic Iridescence. ~ James Christopher Monger, Rovi
