Closing a four-year gap since their acclaimed second album, Horrible Chamber,GNAW's Cutting Piecesdredges forth some of the outfit's most unnerving audio assaults yet. In addition to the traditional four-piece rock format and string and wind instruments, GNAW utilizes found sound, homemade instruments, tweaked oscillators, synthesis, and manipulated recordings. Joining returning assassins Alan Dubin (Khanate, OLD), Brian Beatrice, Carter Thornton (Enos Slaughter), Eric Neuser, and Jun Mizumachi (Ike Yard), the lineup now includes Dana Schechter (Insect Ark, ex-Angels Of Light) on lap steel guitar.
Cutting Pieces was written and recorded over two years at various studios and locales across New York City, mixed by the band's Brian Beatrice. and mastered by James Plotkin. The graphic and type design for the cover was done by returning French designer Sebastien Hayez. Cutting Pieces also features guest musicians Stefania Alos Pedretti of Italian noise rock act OvO contributing background vocals to the track "Septic," and Swiss saxophone player and sound artist Antoine Chessex (ex-Monno) contributing saxophone and amplifier to "Triptych."
