NEOMANTRA Shed Their Skin In New EP Paranosis

Binding their ritualistic circle, Neomantra sets sorcery in motion on September 27 with their EP ‘Paranosis’, a grimdark doom metal tale in five acts produced & engineered by Chad Blondel (Foxhole Recording Studios) and mastered by Forrester Savell, with additional creative inputs from Drew Goddard (KARNIVOOL).

This EP closes the ouroboros that had begun with their previous EP Henosis, a masterpiece praised by the ravenous masses and began a new dark era, exploring the thoughts behind the mind and self.

Now, ‘Paranosis’ sets the storytelling cogs in motion for a delve into the functions of the universe and the great ascension. Each track is packed with gritty guitar, viking vocals, hardcore drums, and emotions that humans have not yet named.

'Consciousness' obre l'EP i juguen amb el cervell amb el seu nom repetit al llarg de la cançó i un batec hardcore, capbussant imbuït de guitarra eco i ones electròniques.

The midway point in the album is ‘Dualism II’, a long inhale with winding guitar melodies, slow drums and muffled vocals that grows with intensity until it becomes a muddied mental conversation.

‘Boltzmann Brain (Thought Experiment)’ blends demonic, screaming vocals with winding riffs of guitar fry. The ominous energy of the song looms heavy in the air, giving it the feeling of a horror movie.

La lenta construcció d'aquesta cançó és gairebé apocalíptica, ja que s'enfonsa en vocals cridants trencats i la decadència de la normalitat, qüestionant-ho tot i fregant l'auditor amb un breu ús més suau d'instruments que són ràpidament trencats pels seus omnipotents homòlegs metàl·lics.

Alongside the EP release, Neomantra are releasing the spiralling music video for the lead single 'Astral Prison', produced, directed and edited by Dominic Pearce.

Bare your teeth and get ready to thrash for the September 27 release of Neomantra’s 'Paranosis', a five-track dose of delicious deviance.
