Today, REZN release their new album »Cycles In The Infinite Dream«.

With their newest full-length offering, »Cycles In The Infinite Dream«, REZN masterfully harness the oppressive weight of their full sonic armory to celestial melodies and sublime synesthesia-inducing atmospherics in a manner so seamless it feels otherworldly, as if occupying a liminal space between two realities.

This record introduces a new tool in REZN’s trade: Spencer Ouellette’s lap steel guitar. The instrument conjures the extraterrestrial weightlessness of the pedal steel guitar featured on Brian Eno’s Apollo: atmospheres and soundtracks album, providing a similar bridge between cosmic ambience and the wide-open terrains of Western music. This is showcased on »Aerial Birth«, where Phil Cangelosi’s roiling basslines provide the counterweight to Ouellette’s helium-grade lap steel before thick slabs of distortion and Patrick Dunn’s rhythmic battery pull everything back to a gravitational center. Throughout, Rob McWilliams’ voice is as beguiling as ever.

REZN – the Chicago-based band of Rob McWilliams (vocals, guitar), Phil Cangelosi (bass), Patrick Dunn (drums), and Spencer Ouellette (synth, saxophone, lap steel) – have announced their new album, »Cycles In The Infinite Dream«, out July 24th via Sargent House, and released the lead single/video, Cloudfall.

Orders for vinyl, CDs, and merch are available at Hello Merch in North America and Evil Greed in Europe. Get »Cycles In The Infinite Dream« HERE.

“A sprawling, psychedelic opus filled with melody, melancholy and a dreamy, doom-soaked atmosphere.” – Decibel

“If 2024’s breakout album Burden sounded like an ominous transmission from the cosmic depths, then »Cycles In The Infinite Dream« trades outer space for inner space, recalibrating those hostile frequencies in favor of a heaviness that registers as more organic, more human.” – Bandcamp

“Shape-shifting psychedelic-doom that touches on everything they’ve done before – whilst delivering fresh riffs and stunning new vocal hooks, REZN keep innovating and colliding genres with »Cycles In The Infinite Dream«.” – Everything Is Noise
