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

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.

ESA Unleashes 3-Part Music Film “Pound of Flesh” — A Cinematic Descent Into Inner Demons 💀

British industrial/EBM visionary ESA has unveiled Pound of Flesh, a three-part music film drawn from his latest album, Sounds for Your Happiness, released July 5th via Negative Gain Productions.

🎬 Watch “Pound of Flesh” here: YouTube
💽 Order Sounds for Your Happiness: Bandcamp

🔥 A Vision of Darkness and Redemption
Filmed across Bangkok, Thailand, and Manchester, UK, Pound of Flesh marks ESA’s most ambitious visual journey yet. Starring Tan Toafa Maneepasopchock (Gotham, Oceans 10) and Panita Hutacharern, alongside a cast of Thai actors, the film weaves a story of torment, astral projection, and spiritual decay.

The narrative follows a soul plagued by inner demons who learns to leap between bodies through astral projection—only to discover that pain cannot be escaped, merely transferred. As madness spreads through each new vessel, the demons close in, leading to an explosive exorcism sequence that blurs the line between spiritual horror and industrial art.

🎞️ A Sonic and Visual Obsession
Blacker describes Pound of Flesh as both “a powerful narrative experience” and “a love letter to Thailand,” a country that has deeply influenced his creative evolution. The film’s haunting visuals pair perfectly with ESA’s grinding, genre-defying soundtrack—a fusion of EBM, industrial, black metal, dark ambient, punk, techno, and power noise.

As ESA declares:

“I’m moving into the place between the walls you made for me.”

⚡ About the Album — Sounds for Your Happiness
A ferocious blend of chaos and catharsis, Sounds for Your Happiness channels everything from Gesaffelstein to Godflesh, Ulver, and Pitchshifter, crafting a brutal electronic odyssey that’s both punishing and euphoric.

☔ ASTARI NITE Releases New Single “Ms. Rain On My Parade” via Negative Gain Productions

A moody synthwave anthem challenging validation, illusion, and emotional solitude

Miami-based darkwave romantics ASTARI NITE return with their haunting new single “Ms. Rain On My Parade”, out now via Negative Gain Productions. The track arrives hot on the heels of their recent success “Unisex Games”, further cementing their signature blend of cinematic melancholy and glittering post-punk noir.

🎧 Listen Now on Bandcamp

💔 A Song for the Misunderstood

Frontman Mychael reflects on the deeper meaning behind the track:

“Validation is not love, and some people are confused by the two. It’s unfortunate how many live their lives yearning for that certain approval by others. This world can be very dishonest if you allow it to be—and the longer you continue to dive into someone else’s sea of lies, you’ll always be alone, with your telephone, and all four walls of the room.”

“Ms. Rain On My Parade” paints a bittersweet portrait of isolation in the modern age—wrapped in shimmering synth textures, aching vocals, and infectious grooves that echo both vulnerability and defiance.

🖤 Dive into the storm. Dance in the rain. Lose yourself in the shadows.
