US heavy psych goldsmiths INSOMNIAC announce US spring tour with Howling Giant; debut album available on Blues Funeral Recordings!

Atlanta's Insomniac coalesce onto our plane like a third eye opening into the beyond. On their debut record "Om Moksha Ritam", they deliver a brooding, heavy, and psychedelic journey, both physical and abstract, towering and transcendent. Insomniac drifts between this world and the next, hovering at the periphery of consciousness. REZN, King Buffalo and Dead Meadow are names that arise if trying to fit them into familiar confines, though it’s clear that fitting within confines isn’t really what they do.

About the upcoming spring tour, Insomniac drummer Amos Rifkin comments: "After the early success of our debut record Om 'Moksha Ritam' and tours supporting it this fall, we're champing at the bit to hit the road again in the new year, and especially to be a part of the inaugural Mojave Experience festival in Joshua Tree. We're humbled and honored to support such a fantastic band like Howling Giant and can't wait to travel cross-country making beautiful music together!"

You’ve got it all wrong. The Insomniac isn’t unable to sleep, the Insomniac chooses to evade sleep. We all fall down at some point, but between the waking world and our dreams exists the surreal. In pursuit of that space between, some of history’s most prominent visionaries would hold a physical object, like a spoon or a ball, while sitting in a chair, and allow themselves to succumb to sleep. As they drifted off, the object would fall, and the sound would awaken them at the periphery of unconsciousness. Now more alert than ever, their work could begin.

Such is Insomniac. A band that exists between this world and the next. A bouncing ball on the sound and rhythm of the universe. An aural guide. Writing their songs in the frequency of the earth, the Atlanta-based quintet's sound casts light on the magic and strange beauty in the balance between unconsciousness and dreams. Their debut album “Om Moksha Ritam” is a concept album that guides the listener through an aural and spiritual journey across multiple extreme environments, testing their resolve, principles, and commitment to adhering to the path.

Debut album "Om Moksha Ritam" is available on Blues Funeral Recordings via their online store, Bandcamp and on all streaming services.
