Paul Metzger is a virtuosic string player who has earned widespread acclaim from critics and peers alike for his boundary-pushing approach to composition. Gedanken Splitter, released in 2008 on the Roaratorio label, stands as what critics have called his most aggressive work yet — a ferocious and frantic record that is, as Signal To Noise's Bill Meyer put it, "entirely on-course."
Spanning three tracks, Gedanken Splitter showcases Metzger's ability to balance reckless intensity with deliberate, meditative depth. From the droning, thoughtful opener "Geshenk" to the album's avant-garde flourishes, this is a record that rewards careful listening and has drawn praise from publications like The Wire for its obsessive, boundary-defying compositions.
