The Albany, California based project Bound Unto Root has released what the band calls a ‘narrative electro-horror’ album titled “Bludgeon”. We would say it’s very much dark ambient like with narrations going through it. It’s the second release for the project after the EP “Sufferer’s Skin” which was released in March.

As what the album is about, Dominic Francisco tells us this: “‘Bludgeon’ is a dark, guttural tale of descent, contrasting deluded imagery and textures with vulnerable moments as the world darkens. Our story begins with a man forever altering his life by purposely hitting a pedestrian with his car, and spiraling out of control from there.”

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
