Death industrial, dark ambient, and metal combine on Somnolent's latest offering "The Infernal Expanse". Exploring the deconstruction of reality, the project has brought forth their most captivating take on music to date adding percussion, strings, violins, and crushing guitars into one hellish package. The take is not a blast of harsh noise or a vicious proclamation of bedroom producer noise, however; the end result is a texture-oriented escape into an otherworldly presence fueled by ritualistic tendencies and a horror-based mythology and fantasy.  With that in mind, I am proud to premiere the second track off of Somnolent's upcoming album below. Stream and find it below:


While respected within the death industrial and noisy dark ambient scene, Somnolent's discography has mostly been digital to this date. But that's changing with the partnership of both record labels Cyclic Law and Sentient Ruin. Cyclic Law will be hosting both the digital and limited edition CD versions of the album (pre-order HERE) while Sentient Ruin will be hosting the digital, vinyl, and cassette versions with test pressings also available (pre-order HERE).

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.
