Their formative influences - the energy and expression of Queen; the raucous grunge noise of Nirvana and Melvins - remain, alongside their passion for visual art. Name-checking the painters Gerhard Richter and Francis Bacon as points of inspiration, they stepped back from their perfectionist leanings to embrace music at its most raw and powerful.\u003cbr\u003e Travelling to Los Angeles studio Hillside Manor, Ghinzu worked alongside the hugely experienced figure of Dave Sardy on this record, a crucial individual who became an additional member of the band.\u003cbr\u003e The results speak for themselves. ‘W.O.W.A’ is a terrific record, laced with raw pulsions and engineered tensions. The distillation of a decade’s worth of ideas, it finds Ghinzu revelling in creative maturity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Other Worlds Await \u003cbr\u003eSnow White \u003cbr\u003eOut of Control \u003cbr\u003eForever \u003cbr\u003eMorning Lights \u003cbr\u003eMathias is Gone \u003cbr\u003eApologies\u003cbr\u003eIt’s The Law\u003cbr\u003e#quietluxury \u003cbr\u003eFool \u003cbr\u003eDeath Race \u003cbr\u003eMaster Bluff \u003cbr\u003eBreathless\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Play It Again Sam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800645521564,"sku":"PIASR1642CD","price":11.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/cd_5c80854d-b8b6-4978-bc59-69d110df4068.jpg?v=1777835574","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/ghinzu-w-o-w-a-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
