PRESS RELEASE:

Her Highness — Visions of a Lower Life (12/10/2021, addicted label)

(stoner doom, sludge, noise, Budapest)

• https://band.link/7pQkJ smart link •

Visions of a Lower Life offers six hymns of despondent sludge, laced with classic doom metal riffing, otherworldly psychedelia, additional noises and dissonant sickness. The carefully planned methods of recording allow the songs to bear multiple layers of instrumentation, resulting in an overwhelming wall of sound. As the band's other works, the album is also to be interpreted in its entirety, having most of the tracks merging into each other, causing a continuity of unpleasant journeys.

Liner-notes:

Possibilities in a Deviant Rebirth

An introduction to the monotonous psychosis that follows, a simple bass riff with tons of feedback and sound manipulation. A long existing idea which took its final form in the studio. The title was indirectly inspired by some parts of J.G. Ballard’s novel “Crash”, but it chillingly aligns with the band’s and the world’s current state as well.

Adversaries of Society

A new abomination born from a riff dating back to at least 2016, doom riffing feeding on strong Bongripper and Electric Wizard influences with ill twists.

The Burnt Offering

The oldest song on the album, resembling the material of the first demo. An ever-forming monotonous musical sacrifice to the nearing doomsday.

Acceptance and Annihilation

The aim is the greatest dissonance that could be achieved, the result is a eulogy to Jeff Vandermeer’s Southern Reach Trilogy.

Knocked Out on Heaven’s Floor

Extremes of the scale between Tartaros and Elysium in every aspect, the latter only to be revealed as a psychedelic illusion. The title is also an obvious mockery of a certain popular rock song, and, in fact, popular songs in general.

In Ceaseless Falling

The end which has no end. The same theme unfolding itself onwards to eternity.
