Canadian tech death metal act Sentiment Dissolve is poised to unleash their debut album, The Orwellian Dream, on 24 May via CDN Records.
Formed in 2021, Sentiment Dissolve may be a newcomer, but the members come with years of experience, with involvement in other projects/bands, including Aepoch, Kavara, and Hell is Other People. Fueled by a collective passion for the loud, extreme and absurd, the London, Ontario quartet takes influence from both classic and modern tech and prog death.
Despite having yet to release any new music, Sentiment Dissolve quickly gained a fanbase in their regional scene with their devastating live performances. Since their first show in the summer of 2022, the band has steadily played across Ontario, sharing the stage with both renowned local bands and international touring acts alike.
The Orwellian Dream, the debut album, delivers finger-twisting complexities with melodic sensibilities and relentless, rapid-fire aggressions, all topped off with a dose of colorful absurdities. Across its five tracks, the album delves into themes of surrealism, dystopia, and transcendence, delivered with conviction and contempt.
Track Listing:
1. Forced Birther
2. Totalitarian Doctrine
3. Transcending the Hierarchy of Knowledge
4. Omnipotent Panopticon
5. The Orwellian Dream
