Doom metal stoner atmosphere in a sludgy wasteland of distortion and rusty riffs.

Heavy distortion and a sense of impending doom is at the forefront of »Dustwalker«. This decayed cassette was found by the wastelands roads of I-5.

Using both retro and contemporary techniques, New Fallen Empire blends oldschool 70s sounds with gritty sci-fi. Processed using tape, vocoding, saturation, extreme pitch-shifting and anything else that can make it sound like biomechanical Wastelanders drifting through a decaying world and journaling their voyage.

“They chant in fear, they chant in hope, grasping chains like brittle rope!”

Written, produced and performed by Joe Diamond, Skids Toole, Akachi Oneel, Darol Simons and Goning Losus.
