Clash Valian is the brainchild of Greg Merrell, an amalgamation of contemporary compositions, ethereal soundscapes, and garage-forged rock songs . Compiled over the course of the last 20 years, his songs have been written in between his time playing with Pokemon Dad, The Friendly Cannons, and $2,000 Puma. With Clash Valian’s upcoming release, Degrees of Freedom, Merrell has created a body of work ranging from edgy rock to spacey ethereal pop to laid back lounge. The album features over 20+ different instruments on 21 songs that are all self-written and recorded by Merrell himself. The album was mixed and co-produced by Tom Wade.
Clash Valian’s music has been exploring the ether driven auditory landscapes of the accessibly odd. From ethereal ballads to pulsating anthems, each composition showcases the project's commitment to pushing musical boundaries and challenging conventional norms. “Degrees of Freedom”, their latest release, is a journey that leaps and traverses human emotion. His lyrics eclectically explore a wide array of themes and topics.
…heartache in rough relationships, the mental impact of toxicity in corporate climates, running to get “high”, the existential mental load of a WWII allied pilot, … amongst other dark and light motifs about the human condition. There is a significant breadth to the ideas explored in “Degrees of Freedom”.
