about

"it slowly builds an experiential soundscape out of leftover emotions, increasingly textured atmospheres and the hard realities of industrialised beats. It reminds me of some of the more experimental indie releases from the late 90s/early 00s, mixed with an early Earache Records feel." - Wonderbox Metal.




This is the self-titled debut album from Dormansland, AKA James Parker, formerly of UK noise rockers Hey Colossus and lo-fi doom metallers Gorse.

The album's songs are the product of a jaundiced view of humanity’s recent social and political machinations, observed from a safe distance. This thread helps knit together what are a variety of styles, from subtle ambient ‘shoegaze’ and drone to a harder industrial edge, all overlaid with a doom-laden overall feel.

Subject matter includes ecological neglect, political irresponsibility and a future where society is ever more overlooked for profit. Melody and soul are not sacrificed however, contrasted against hazy atmospheres anchored by simple rhythms.
