Experimental heavy artist ALN has announced that they will have a new album as Mizmor coming out on Gilead Media on January 22, 2022. The album will have only two tracks, “Wit’s End” and “Pareidolia” and is named for the former track, Wit’s End.
Check out the teaser below:
ALN explains that the album is a meditation on the self-destructive nature of consciousness, “an ode to all those who adopt superstitious and grandiose beliefs about mankind, its “spirit,” and its place within the cosmos” Stating further:
The idea is presented through the lens of our current struggles as a society. I’ve found myself utterly appalled by the increase in willingness and eagerness to accept misinformation, disinformation, alternative facts, conspiracy theorism, cultism, and religiosity in us as a people. I feel this as a depressing weight, having trekked the better part of ten years from Christianity to atheism. “Wit’s End” has multiple meanings here – masses of people have an exponentially decreasing sense of reason, I am at a loss for words witnessing it, and ultimately all understanding will come to an end anyway as we war against our natural fate.
