The electrorock group known as Room 1985 consists of three gents by the name of Sam Stone, Chris Crysand, and John Hulse. While their debut album was released back in 2017 to critical acclaim, they have been busy working on a brand new follow-up album. The time for that to release is nigh. Homing in August 10th via Analoguetrash, we are proud to premiere the stream of their new album "The Bliss" in its entirety. But no more words; you can check that out directly below:



The Bliss concept album starting with a story that is based on the addiction to social media and the impact this has to a couple living together. They ignore each other in real life while claiming to be happy in the virtual world – a common situation here in 2018. The story takes a stark turn as aliens invade Earth, conquering the planet and changing the whole basis of human society using social media to view individual worth rather than people’s actual characteristics and personality. 

Musically the album sits comfortably between the darkwave atmosphere and sound of the 80s, 90s metal and our signature electronic sounds. There are hints of our prog backgrounds here and there too. -Room 1985

"The Bliss" can be pre-ordered HERE in both digital and limited edition cassette formats.

I've been writing for Brutal Resonance since November of 2012 and now serve as the editor-in-chief. I love the dark electronic underground and usually have too much to listen to at once but I love it. I am also an editor at Aggressive Deprivation, a digital/physical magazine since March of 2016. I support the scene as much as I can from my humble laptop.
