Giant Squid are an American band that specializes in a highly experimental form of doom metal. They seem right at home on their label, The End, which caters to more eccentric heavy music and Giant Squid are pretty eccentric. Their debut album, Metridium Fields, true to the band's name, is themed to the deep sea. The songs give reference to creatures of the depths, such as Megaptera is the scientific name for whales, Ampullae Of Lorenzini which are organs common in sharks, and Metridium Fields themselves which are underwater fields littered with Metridium organisms. However, it is not just the song titles or lyrical references that gives this album its feel for the deep, it is in the mood of the songs. It is reminiscent of space rock, it is apparent that the band was going for something more terrestrial. The album gives off an aura of underwater despair and search, not at all unlike Jules Verne's classic novel, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. The short intro, Megaptera In The Delta, gives the impression of one plummeting to the deep sea and entering a different world. That world is that of Giant Squid.

Podpisali kontrakt z Translation Loss Records.

Christian McKenna (Translation Loss): "After floating around with Drew (TL) and Aaron in the Pacific right by Alcatraz collecting mollusks while avoiding sharks and paparazzi for several hours... the three of us decided it was a no brainer to work together. Giant Squid is completely unique to anything going on in heavy music nowadays and we couldn't be happier to be along for the ride."
