MonastR Unleashes Bleak Sonic Devastation on New EP Of Dust and Bones
French
sludge/crust duo MonastR returns with Of Dust and Bones, a
harrowing two-track EP clocking in at nearly 20 minutes. Pressed on a one-sided
12" vinyl with a stunning silkscreened B-side, the release blends brooding
doom riffs, post-metal atmospheres, and harsh crust elements into a
slow-burning, apocalyptic soundscape.
Title track “Of Dust and Bones” opens with punishing riffs and despairing vocals, evoking the bleak poetry of Olaf Stapledon’s Last and First Men. “Millions” follows, beginning with eerie minimalism before erupting into crushing crescendos.
Released
via a network of DIY labels including Shove Records, Counteract
Recordings, Nothing to Harvest, and Insane Society, MonastR
delivers a sonic reckoning for the end times. Fans of Amenra, Fall of
Efrafa, and Neurosis will find familiar desolation here. Of Dust
and Bones is not just music—it’s a warning whispered from the ashes of a
dying world.
