nolongerhuman set to release "Withdrawal" in August
After his first two successful albums, in 2009 and 2012 respectively, nolongerhuman returns with Withdrawal on August 29th, 2014.
Trying to create an album that makes you ponder your own reality, 10 tracks will flesh out a soul-searching experience from the mind of Clint Robertson. In his own words:
"Withdrawal' is very personal in nature. It deals with my experiences the last few years, moving all over the country to find peace. Getting rid of my own addictions, and seeing life from a different perspective, standing up to challenges and overcoming them, instead of avoiding them or running from them. It's about fighting to become who and whatever one wants to be, without limits, and fighting anyone who would want you to change who you are.
The concept was simple. Sometimes to find yourself you have to withdrawal from everyone and everything and truly look in the mirror, decide if you like what you see, and if you don't, change it by any means necessary. I didn't pull any punches with the vocals, there is very little allegory, every track is directly related to a situation I experienced, or a person who was in my life. I guess, the sample in the first track says the concept the best, this is a new introduction for what people can expect from me, and I only plan on moving forward from here, or I will die trying. The overall thought process is in opposition to the culture of commercialism, blind faith, corporatism, and apathy, the idea is that the only real strength is in the integrity of the individual, and the only way to use that strength is to admit your own faults - to really know yourself, no matter how frightening that might be."

info@brutalresonance.comI'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.
