New Usnea, new label, new song

Posted in Records on February 15, 2023

Newly signed to Translation Loss Records, Usnea has announced a new 6-song full-length album coming soon.

The band formed in 2011 in Portland, OR and has released material with Relapse Records and Orca Wolf Records.

The new collection will be called Bathed in Light, available on vinyl, cd, and digitally.

Justin Cory (guitar/vocals) shares insight into its making:

It has been a brutal 6 years making this record with one of our members developing a serious chronic illness, me breaking my wrist in a motorcycle wreck, and the impacts of a global pandemic. Our previous material was already inspired by the continued decline of our global society but that has only accelerated since our last record, 2017’s Portals Into Futility.

The band also shares a new song, "From Soot and Pyre," streaming at Decibel.

Track Listing: 

1. Bathed In Light
2. The Compleated Sage
