Filmmaker doesn’t let up, returning with yet another self-released album for 2024. He just got his 2022 and 2023 albums Latent Alters and Eidetic reissued on vinyl by Tartaurus and now, here comes Grim Encoders – another 9-track album further expanding the Filmmaker sound. This time you get some added guitars and vocals. Plenty of reverb adds to a dark post-punk atmosphere, with more focus on melody than perhaps ever before. ”Organ Trader” is perhaps the closest we’ve come to a pop song on a Filmmaker release so far?
