Brooklyn, NY’s instrumental post-metal outfit Sannhet’s second full-length, Revisionist, is a dizzying concoction of math-metal intricacy, prismatic pop shimmer, and dense metallic crush, taking the metalgaze sound of like minded modern metal combos like Deafheaven or Alcest and adding more dynamic indie rockisms and churning noise rock crunch.  The nine-song album is set for release on March 3 via San Francisco’s Flenser Records.  
Sannhet was founded in late 2010 and released their debut LP Known Flood via Sacrament Records (St. Vitus Bar’s label) in February of 2013 to great critical acclaim. Pitchfork said the record “…welds the power of black metal, sludge metal, and grindcore to the structures and orders of post-rock and post-punk” and SteelForBrains called it”…an aural trek into the consciousness of all that is sacred to metal.  Percussion driven but never overwhelming – the album steers around audio samples, ominous sounds, and the undercurrent of a kind of seething introspection.”
Ghettoblaster recently caught up with AJ Annunziata and John Refano of Sannhet to discuss the 2014 albums that they loved. This is what made them dizzy.
