DOMKRAFT - Reveals First Single From Forthcoming Fourth Album

Swedish psychedelic doom act Domkraft has released the relentless new track, "Slowburner", as the first single from its forthcoming fourth album, Sonic Moon, scheduled for release on 8 September.

Domkraft's singer and bass player Martin Wegeland discusses the forthcoming album: "The theme of Sonic Moons is not as much space as the title might suggest, it is essentially all about escapism. To find that spot in your head and body where you can feel liberated and, if only briefly, escape the constant flood of burden that is life in the real world. Think of Sonic Moons as a pill blister pack, where each song has its own active ingredient. Or an imaginary solar system where each track is its own planet. A galaxy of tunes, with different gravity, and different temperatures. A riff- and rhythm-fueled exploration of inner and outer space. It's about longing, hope, frustration, relief, and some plain old mindfucking. All by means of heavy rock".

Domkraft elaborates about the single: "Of all the songs on the new album, 'Slowburner' is probably the most straightforward, as it revolves around a grinding yet kind of catchy riff", Martin Wegeland continues. "It's a straight-up heavy rock song about suddenly realizing that you're drifting into an expanding black hole, be it in a physical or spiritual sense. It could be a fragmented stream of thoughts from someone who is in and out of consciousness, adrift in a galactic escape pod, or it could be what keeps an insomniac earthling awake, given the state of everything."

On its fourth album, Sonic Moons, Sweden's Domkraft setss forth on a voyage into the inner cosmos, riding their fuzz-driven, psychedelic riff-doom through the galactic psyche and into alternate metaphysical realities, all in search of escape, respite, and release.

Domkraft generally stays true to its musical course on the new effort, but the Nordic trio has audibly matured and sharpened its writing. The trademark towering doom anthems remain but with an ever-so-slight shift toward heavy rock through small tweaks and nuances.

Now take your time for "Slowburner"... Link
