🚨 NEW RELEASE DAY: OMNEROD - PANSPERMIA! 🚨

Check it out at the

After last years triumphant The Amensal Rise release, Omnerod returns with a vicious reimagining of a deep cut from the band's back catalog. Panspermia is a track from the bands' debut album, re-interpreted by the current lineup and bended into dark, new shapes going beyond the original framework.

And along with it, the band has released an accompanying lyric video that both underlines the trippy and violent nature of the music on display. You can watch that video on YouTube now!

The band had the following to say about this new audio barrage:

"The small group of people who were already around when we released our first album Ivory Dune might recall a song called Panspermia. Those of us who were part of the band then were always quite fond of this song, even though it sounds like the incestual creative baby of 3 immature and intoxicated teenagers throwing dumb ideas around the rehearsal space (which it totally was).

To celebrate the 10 years of Ivory Dune, we have decided to completely revisit this 16-minute beast and give it the love (and hate) it deserves. We do feel like this is a direct continuation of The Amensal Rise, both musically and thematically, and we can't wait for you all to hear this!"

This new release is mixed by Julien Huyssens (A close friend of the band and great engineer), and mastered by the Tony Lindgren at Fascination Street Studios, Sweden.

🚨 New season of LAYERS is here! Starting with Omnerod! 🚨

Slow death metal with lots of kickdrums, music continuously speeding up, having 12 closing songs but no opening song? Yes, it's time to have a proper sitdown and talk again. LAYERS IS BACK!

In this new season, we start of with Romain Jenx from Omnerod who talks us through their 2023 album 'The Amensal Rise' in great detail! It was a conversation that pivotted between heavy subjects, stupid comedy and everything in between.

🚨 Omnerod unveil upcoming release: Panspermia! 🚨

On friday the 25th of October 2024 Omnerod will release their newest epic song Panspermia! A track in two parts divided as such:

1 - Above (6:07)
2 - Below (10:00)

What can we expect? The same maddening intensity that we already know from Omnerod of course, but also a combination of old and new!

Here's what the band had to say about it:

"The 7 people among you (hi mom!) who were already around when we released our first album Ivory Dune might recall a song called Panspermia. Those of us who were part of the band then were always quite fond of this song, even though it sounds like the incestual creative baby of 3 immature and intoxicated teenagers throwing dumb ideas around the rehearsal space (which it totally was).

To celebrate 10 years of Ivory Dune, we have decided to completely revisit this 16-minute beast and give it the love (and hate) it deserves. We do feel like this is a direct continuation of The Amensal Rise, both musically and thematically, and we can't wait for you all to hear this (both in its studio form, and in a live setting during our upcoming UK tour).

The song was mixed by our good friend Julien Huyssens, and mastered by the amazing Tony Lindgren, in Fascination Street Studios.

To those of you hoping for new material, don't you worry: This sounds NOTHING like the original, this is brand new Omnerod music.

To those of you who love the original, please be reassured: This is VERY CLOSE to the 2014 version, with just a few minor tweaks here and there."

Stay tuned and mark those calendars!

Find the albums on streaming here: https://linktr.ee/DisconnectedSouls

Disconnected Souls has released their debut album 'Fragments of Consciousness' today through Layered Reality Productions on CD format!

This release coincides with a brand new music video for the song 'Monachopsis (A Waltz at the End of the World)' and the release of the complete album in instrumental format!

Check out the album and video at the

The band members had the following to say about this release:

"Following the wonderful reception to Fragments of Consciousness, we're delighted to have partnered with our friends in Layered Reality Productions to bring the album to life in a physical medium! It's always been important to us to deliver a cohesive quality product and hopefully you'll enjoy the combination of music and beautiful artwork, as well as learning more about the album on the enclosed booklet.

We're also thrilled to share some additional content from the FOC world. Our new music videos for 'Symbiont' and 'Monachopsis' were filmed in the incredible setting of a historic Welsh estate and allow us to explore new imagery as we bring those tracks to life.

Our instrumental album release also allows our musical arrangements to be heard in a different light, and perhaps listeners will notice a few instruments or parts they haven't discovered previously! We are incredibly grateful for the support and love we have received with FOC, and we wanted to continue to celebrate it. FOC is part I of II, and it is time for us to begin telling the next chapters of this tale."

So, be sure to check out the records and watch those videos to share in this hype!

Disconnected Souls is dropping the physical CD version of their album "Fragments of Consciousness" tomorrow(!!!) along with a brand new music video and more!

Disconnected Souls signs with Layered Reality Productions!

The Chester-based progressive metal genre-benders Disconnected Souls have joined the Layered Reality Productions family!

After releasing their album "Fragments Of Consciousness" digitally earlier this year, it was clear to us at LRP that we wanted to work with this band. And the feeling was (fortunately) absolutely mutual!

Fletch (the bands' founder) had this to say:

"This project has evolved a lot since I originally conceptualised it, but the one thing that hasn't is my goal to work with the brightest and best to deliver quirky and chaotic music and this is exactly what we're going to continue to do!

I'm not one of those people who's always dreamed of being on a label, but having seen the hard work and talent behind the LRP, they couldn't be a better fit and it's going to be a pleasure and privilege to work closely with Tom and co moving forward! They're a talented group who are working tirelessly to support the progressive scene. I am very excited for the future of this partnership!"

Both LRP and the band are now working on a physical release of the debut album slated for the second half of 2024. More details about this will be shared when available!
