UK battle doom legends CONAN announce the release of their anticipated seventh studio album “Violence Dimension” on Heavy Psych Sounds this April 25th and unleash an earth-shattering first track “Frozen Edges of the Wound” today.
“A song for anyone fighting, whether that be an external or internal foe.
Have strength for death comes to us all, just don’t make it an easy kill.”
n 2024, Conan signed to Heavy Psych Sounds as a recognized name and one of the foremost acts of their generation, wildly influential in their home country of the UK and well beyond; headliners in practice and theory alike. Their fifth LP, 2022’s ‘Evidence of Immortality,’ brought a dark ambience to coincide with its outright attack. With experiments in darkwave and synth adding breadth to the stated root purpose of aural force, it’s never been harder to guess where the next few years might take their sound, but whatever’s coming, Conan will make it kill. The better part of two decades later, their reliability remains unshakable. Which you want when your band is so heavy that the floor and your ribcage both start to vibrate.
About their new album “Violence Dimension”, the band comments: “Violence Dimension is our 7th full-length release. We have come quite a distance in time and space since we released Horseback in 2010. One thing that binds us all is violence, be that within a video game, or in a movie or on the daily news. Violence affects our daily life, perhaps more than love or kindness ever will. We are all bound by death, whether we like it or not. This release explores the hinterland between being scared to live and bring scared to die, and punches holes in the idea that we must live our life by one set of rules. We all live in the violence dimension, and there is no escape.”
“Violence Dimension” will be issued in various limited vinyl editions, classic vinyl edition, CD digipack and digital, with preorders available now from Heavy Psych Sounds.
