Celebrant
ST5: Celebrant is a potent and intense journey that takes the listener on a spiritual mission through the hazy depths of the Earthly realm. Building on the sonic foundations laid by Machinic Impulses of the Hyperreal, Celebrant incorporates new elements that elevate Skin Tension's sound to even greater heights. The resulting sound is faster, tighter, and more dynamically varied while pushing the unflinching ferocity to new extremes. That being said, this is the most approachable Skin Tension album to date, but remember; This is Skin Tension. No compromises. ( Celebrant is Skin Tension's most composed album to date, featuring exclusively prewritten material; no completely improvised tracks. Minimal takes, minimal edits, minimal gear, maximum expression. ( Skin Tension: Joshua D. Byrd- drums, additional synthesizer on track 4 Edward Longo- guitar, vocals ( Recorded by Shibby Poole on 09/03-09/04/2022 at Nite Flight Studio, Nashville, TN Mixed by Simon Da Silva Alvarez Mastered by Colin Marston Cover art by Enzo Lederer-Morihisa
