A sampling of what you will find on the latest GNP LP, "Intensities : Sonics : Extremes". Released July 4th, 2011.

Defeated Once Again (Intensities : Sonics : Extremes - 2011)

Gross National Produkt (GNP) was born on the sun-scorched shores of Tampa, Florida from the unholy union of Riki Rezinunts and Martin Davis as an electro-industrial project back in 1997. What started off as a nameless yet definitive idea shared by the pair soon became the mission statement of the act: a desire to create electronic industrial music that always seeks to fuse itself with new elements, creating a constantly changing hybrid which strives to make each new track somewhat of a departure from the previous while still maintaining a signature sound paying homage to the roots of electro-industrial music. Though Martin was forced to leave GNP shortly after the project came kicking and screaming into the world, Riki was not discouraged from keeping it alive and further nurturing its development.

Since its formative years in the late 90s, GNP has given birth to six children of its own in the form of six full-length LPs, one double LP, one EP and has also spread its dark seed throughout several compilations; the most recent being "Replicator" a remix/cover comp EP from UCNX where GNP's remix of "The Innocent" first appeared. The remix was received rather well, receiving such praise as: "Gross National Produkt came out of their dark hole to deliver perhaps one of the darkest mixes the album has yet to see. They took The Innocent and made it not so innocent, working it over, chewing on it a bit, and then spitting out the bastard child they created through rigid terrains and the works. If you should gain anything from this ramble, it's probably that this is an awesome remix." -Steven Gullotta of Brutal Resonance.

On July 4th of 2011, about 4 years since the release of the Quaque EP, GNP released the full-length "Intensities : Sonics : Extremes" LP, an aggressive and stark collection of nihilistic machine anthems for the apocalyptic dance-floor. This LP was the first time since 1998 that GNP had more than one contributing member. Long time contributor and collaborator, Valen J. of experimental project CEO, joined the GNP fold.

The next couple of releases wouldn't appear until almost another 4 years. In November of 2014 the first in a series called the "RE:Produktion" series was released. This first volume of the series, entitled "RE:Mixed", contains remixes composed by GNP for other acts throughout the course of the bands history. The next release was unleashed on July 22nd of 2015. This double LP entitled "Progressions In Produktion" is a collection of b-sides and otherwise unreleased songs spanning the years of 1997 through 2012. This release is packed with 15 years, 27 tracks, and 146 minutes worth of unreleased material from GNP.

The latest release from GNP is incoming and should arrive January 16th of 2019, an EP entitled "Mōdraniht. The title track was written and recorded December 24th and 25th of 2018 and the remaining five tracks, already mostly finished, were completed in the days that followed. This EP includes no vocals, a first in a long time since GNP's formative years, and the vibe and feel of the album itself may bit of a departure from most GNP releases people have become used to hearing but, the ravor-sharp texturing, complex layering, ever-present breaks, and technical wizadry in general are still unquestionably GNP branded.

The next release which will be called "Noise" will be featuring a whole slew of guest vocalists and various collaborators from all over the world. This LP has been and will continue to be quite a laborous project involving many people and their busy lives so there is no telling when it will be ready for your ears unfortunately. It will come eventually... but only when it's done.
