Post-Rock Solo Artist Figment Releases Debut Video For Borderline And Announces Details For Debut EP in 2023


This is title track of my eventual EP 'Borderline'. It is also the first track. EP 'Borderline' out on Trepanation Recordings 2023. Date TBA.

'Borderline' is purely me with a guitar, an amp and some pedals. No vocals, spoken word or further instrumentation.

The idea for the EP initially stemmed from my mental health diagnosis three years ago. It is about overcoming grief, battling forward, falling down again and pushing further forward.

Music recording - Harriet Denton (Figment)
Guitars, FX - Harriet Denton (Figment)

Full EP recording scheduled for December through The Arch Recording Studio. Full digital release by Trepanation Recordings in Spring 2023.

Witchy Atmospheric Doom Unit FRAYLE To Tour Europe This November

Hot off the heels of their latest release "Skin & Sorrow", Cleveland, Ohio’s atmospheric and gothic doom merchants FRAYLE have announced a European tour kicking off on November 1st, 2022. The tour will see the band playing shows and festivals in the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, UK, and Germany.

Heavy music media giants Revolver Magazine recently named Frayle as “one of the 5 bands you need to know”. They said, “Frayle takes a cinematic approach to doom, conjuring up witchy atmosphere, mesmerizing groove passages and hushed melodies that hypnotize the listener into their eerie spell - only to snap them out of it with crashing breaks of cascading distortion.”

FRAYLE was formed in 2017 by guitarist Sean Bilovecky (formerly of now-defunct Man's Ruin recording artists Disengage) and vocalist Gwyn Strang, a singer with an alluring voice and an equally compelling flair for imagery. Their “lullabies over chaos” approach to songwriting allows the group the freedom to explore what is possible with heavy music; its gorgeously ominous sound is a result of complex layering and tone stacking while simultaneously overseeing the perfectly delicate balance between heaving, heavy riffs, and haunting vocal melodies.
 
Says the band: “We look forward to seeing everyone again in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium as well as meeting new fans and friends in the UK, Denmark and Sweden. This album has been a long time in the making and we can’t wait to share these new songs with our fellow Heretics."

Their new album "Skin & Sorrow" is available now on Lay Bare Recordings. Watch their latest "Bright Eyes" video at this location.
