MORTAL REALM Invokes Digital Decay with New Single “ROT (And Decompose)” 💀

US industrial force MORTAL REALM returns with a corrosive new offering, releasing “ROT (And Decompose)” on December 5th via Negative Gain — a track that drags listeners deeper into the project’s expanding world of dread-soaked electronic ritual.

Mortal Realm

A Descent Into Beautiful Corruption 🖤

“ROT (And Decompose)” is a slow, shadow-breathing anthem of erosion and emotional collapse. Built on heavy mechanical pulses, haunted atmospheres, and MORTAL REALM’s signature sonic corrosion, the track feels like a living machine rotting from within — and inviting you to witness every moment of its decay.

The single’s design is intentionally claustrophobic, textured, and immersive, pulling from the raw power of industrial grit while weaving in melodic undertones that linger like ghosts in rusted hallways.

The Mind Behind the Machine: Adam V. Jones ⚙️

MORTAL REALM is the multi-genre, industrial-driven creation of Adam V. Jones, known for his impactful work in Haex and Sterling Silicon.

After carving open a new era of dark electronics with the 2024 debut album Stab in the Dark on Negative Gain Productions, the project has continued expanding its sonic palette — fusing heavy electronics, melodic textures, and esoteric atmospheres into a style that feels both ritualistic and futuristic.

“ROT (And Decompose)” marks one of two new singles arriving in Fall 2025, alongside the emotionally crushing “With a Heavy Heart,” signaling a new chapter of evolution in Jones’s expanding world of digital sorrow and industrial chaos.

Negative Gain’s Arsenal Grows Stronger ⚔️

With each release, MORTAL REALM becomes a sharper weapon in Negative Gain’s dark sonic arsenal. This new single is crafted for fans who crave immersive industrial soundscapes, post-apocalyptic electronics, and emotionally charged decay — a track meant to burrow under the skin and stay there.

🔥 Faderhead Unleashes New Single “This Is Not The End” + Mindset Hacks for High-Functioning Controlled Chaos 🧠💥

🎤 New Track Previewed Live in Germany

Kicking off March with explosive energy, Faderhead delivered a sold-out show in Oberhausen, Germany—where fans got a surprise taste of a brand-new track: “This Is Not The End.” Despite never having heard it before, the crowd went off.

The official music video will be filmed this Saturday in Hamburg, where the team hopes for an equally electric audience. The single is scheduled to drop mid-May, just in time to crank momentum before Wave-Gotik-Treffen.

💿 FH20 Album in the Works

In last month’s Patreon studio stream, Faderhead teased plans for a brand-new full-length album in early March 2026.

Why now?
2026 marks 20 years since the release of Faderhead’s debut album “FH1”, and what better way to celebrate than with an “FH20” release.

After a string of singles in 2024, it’s time for something more immersive. Faderhead is back in album mode.

🎛️ 1-Hour Rave Mix: Not Your Typical FH Vibe

March’s 1-hour Patreon-exclusive mix takes a rave-forward detour. Less darkwave, more full-on energy.

It’s rhythmic, pulsing, and designed to attract new listeners—so if you’re into high-octane beats, give it a spin.

💪 Mindset Hacks: Fuck Your Excuses, Use Microbursts Instead

Q1 is over. Are your New Year’s resolutions collecting dust? Let’s fix that.

We all make excuses—life’s busy, motivation’s low, the timing’s never right. But if you wait for perfect conditions, you’ll stay stuck forever.

⏱️ Microbursts: The 10-Minute Fix

Instead of aiming for a perfect hour-long work sprint, start with 5–15 minutes of focused action.
Set a timer. Do one task. When it dings, you’re done. Or keep going.

That’s the magic of microbursts—small momentum snowballs fast.

🗓️ Temporal Landmarks: Hit Reset on Command

Want a clean slate? Use temporal landmarks like Mondays, birthdays, or the 1st of the month to mentally reset.
Pick a hard start date and commit. No waiting for motivation. Just move.

🧠 Perfection Is a Lie. Progress Is Power

You don’t need the perfect hour or the perfect energy. You need movement.
Start with one push-up.
One sentence.
One small win.

Because motion beats perfection every time.

🚀 Take the Shot

Next time you’re tempted to delay:
Say “fuck that.”
Set a timer.
Start something.

Small wins build big momentum.
