Unconventional structures and dissonant tones also dominate the upcoming album Ein stumpfes Instrument (“A Blunt Instrument”), which will be released in 2026 via Revolvermann Records. Although the band’s roots in the melancholy and aggression of post-black metal remain recognizable, FARSON now unleashes their raw creative energy in a mixture of technical death metal, jazz fusion, and avant-garde madness. The album’s eight tracks oscillate between odd time signatures, dissonances, and memorable melodies, appearing at once uncompromising and conciliatory, cerebral and devastating. Thematically, Ein stumpfes Instrument moves between experiences of isolation and the search for harmony. It is a work that refuses to be confined, constantly blurring the boundaries between intellect and instinct. Between eruptive rage and quiet resignation, soundscapes emerge that continuously transform, condense, and disintegrate again. The lyrics, often fragmentary and marked by experiences of modern everyday life, anchor the music’s complexity in a tangible, human experience. The tension between the longing for reconciliation, completeness, and form, and the reality of the isolated individual that runs musically throughout the album is powerfully completed by the cover artwork, a painting by Till Schermer. As a result, the album feels less like a collection of songs and more like a single, multilayered organism that breathes, trembles, and writhes. FARSON continue their path with unwavering consistency, far from conventional structures, creating a work that resists easy classification. Ein stumpfes Instrument is not merely a statement but a provocation. And that is precisely where its power lies.
