Northwest Indiana-based space rock band Cloakroom have released a music video for the track ‘Doubts’, which can be viewed below.
Cloakroom issued third full-length studio album Dissolution Wave on January 28th, 2022 through Relapse Records.
Dissolution Wave is ‘a universe created by Cloakroom guitarist / vocalist Doyle Martin as a way of processing the last few years’ leading up to the album’s release, according to a press release. “We lost a couple of close friends over the course of writing this record,” he commented. “Dreaming up another world felt easier to digest than the real nitty-gritty we’re immersed in every day.”
According to the aforementioned press release, “within Cloakroom’s space western, an act of theoretical physics—the dissolution wave—wipes out all of humanity’s existing art and abstract thought. In order to keep the world spinning on its axis, songsmiths must fill the ether with their compositions. Meanwhile, the Spire and Ward of Song act as a filter for human imagination: Only the best material can pass through the filter and keep the world turning.”
Featuring lyrics based on an imagined cosmology, Dissolution Wave marks Cloakroom’s tenth anniversary as a band as well as their first outing with drummer Tim Remis – Remis joining Cloakroom’s ranks in 2019. Dissolution Wave was recorded at Earth Analog in Tolono, Illinois, with engineering and mixing from longtime soundman and childhood friend Zac Montez. Included are loops and piano on the track ‘Doubts’ by Matt Talbott, as well as exterior percussion on the song ‘Lost Meaning’ by Jason Gagovski.
