ISON will be releasing their highly anticipated second album, UNISON in 4 weeks time. This is also to be accompanied by a music video from the new release.

ISON was born in autumn 2012 after a trip in the south of England, the period in which the comet with the same name was discovered. Alec and Daniele have created this experience by mixing the respective music peculiarities, finding a synthesis in the world of electronic music. Trip-hop, ethereal, ambient, darkwave and dream pop blend in mystic and dreamy atmospheres. Two voices in harmony merge with the soft and industrial sounds of the instrumental compositions: brass, strings and drums are geometrically tuned to the variety of synthetic noises.

Heilung have unleashed the first release from their upcoming album FUTHA.
The newly unveiled song, Norupo, is based on the poem known as “the Norwegian rune poem”.

The poem was preserved in a 17th-century copy of a now lost 13th-century manuscript. The Norwegian rune poem gives a complete description of all sixteen runes of the Younger Futhark, also commonly known as the “Viking runes”. These runes are also the foundation for the artwork of “Futha”.
Heilung is amplified history from early medieval northern Europe and should not be mistaken for a modern political or religious statement of any kind.
