Brazilian dark metal outfit Litosth have revealed the second track, "Eclipse", from their upcoming fourth full‑length, Dreaming, slated to arrive on 24 July through Personal Records.
Some records arrive as answers. Dreaming is not one of them.
The fourth album from Litosth — the duo formed by multi‑instrumentalist Maicon Ristow and lyricist Wendel Siota — offers no comfort, no resolution, no redemption. Instead, it delivers something more unsettling, more necessary: the complete architecture of collapse. Eight tracks that do not describe the fall — they are the fall.
If 2024's self‑released Cesariana was a cry of revolt against the manufactured formula for happiness, Dreaming goes deeper — and deeper here is not metaphorical. It is literal. The album descends layer by layer through what remains when everything imposed is stripped away: faith, morality, purpose, and the illusion of ascent. What remains is not liberation. It is ashes, emptiness, and silence.
Sonically, Litosth continue to reject any label — brutality in dialogue with philosophical density, and arrangements shifting between the colossal and the surgical. Dreaming carries an even more suffocating cohesion than its predecessors. The eight tracks function as acts of a single ritual of dispossession: "Defy", "Ruin", "Eclipse", "Abyss", "Monolith", "Iconoclast", "Nadir", and "Gólgota" form a map of a collective sentence — one inherent to humankind as a species.
Dreaming is not a record about dreaming. It is about finally ceasing to do so. And it was never just music. Link
