The Mourning – Hush 2024

Release date: Monday, June 24th 2024 A Unifying Prog Metal Journey of Reflection and Self-Discovery: The Mourning release first video single Chaos Machine from upcoming album Hush

If you think of the most magical reason for founding a band, it’s most certainly a common passion for music, a common aspiration to use the power of music to move people, to inspire and make an impact on their lives in the most positive way. It’s a special bond between people that know how music can give a sense of purpose and meaning in life. This is exactly where US based prog metal pioneers The Mourning draw their energy from. What started out as a simple recording project of vocalist and composer Johnny Ray and drummer Jason Berlin (son of famous bassist Jeff Berlin) in Tampa, Florida, in 2017, became a journey of self-discovery, soon attracting kindred spirits until the band was complete with all-rounder Alex Nasla (ex Witherfall, producer, vocalist and keyboardist), Italian musician and composer Francesco Pinter (guitar), lead vocalist Eliana Blanchard and guitarist Phillip Colacecchi.

After the release of their quite experimental EP Theosis in 2018, in which the band embarked on a journey to discover their true sound and a message of their own, The Mourning are now ready to present their first full-length album Hush, to be released on June 24, 2024. It shines thanks to a much heavier emphasis on guitars, including the use of slap guitar, grooving riffs, angelic classical guitar, face-melting guitar solos and much more in the band’s sound that was originally highly influenced by Opeth, Steven Wilson and Haken, as they underline: “On this album we also took the harmonies to the next level with the soulful vocals of Eliana Blanchard, giving the songs a much richer harmonic sound and unique sonic identity.” The striking energy between the contrasting voices elevates the experience beyond the one-dimensional atmosphere of the typical, inviting the listener to join the band on their turbulent voyage, on which they combine the cold precision of progressive metal with raw emotional energy: “We are trying to give listeners insight with the backdrop of a virtuous soundscape that opens the mind to new ideas, concepts, and inner growth. Some albums take your hand on its journey – Hush takes you on an introspective journey of your self.”

And one thing is absolutely clear: This is only the beginning of a grand journey for The Mourning.
