| Prog-Rock supergroup DarWin today release a third track “Rising Distortion” off their upcoming new studio album, Distorted Mirror, out September 26 via OoS/Phantom Recordings. The album’s dramatic Instrumental opener, “Rising Distortion” is a dazzling display of high-impact virtuosity. “It’s a song that challenges us to consider the AI era that has arrived,” says DarWin (the group’s founding member). “As humans become more dependent on AI to do things, AI has more opportunities to shift our own understanding of the world, perhaps with its own intentions that aren’t entirely clear to us. That is the ‘Distortion’ of the ‘Mirror’ – that is, the reflection of us as humanity.” Stream / Share “Rising Distortion” HEREWatch the official music video HERE Distorted Mirror, which is co-produced by Simon Phillips and DarWin, is the follow up to last year’s hit release, Five Steps on the Sun, and picks up exactly where the last album left off, with original and creative rock songs that continue to break new ground. Distorted Mirror is a true journey, packed with intricate melodies, sledgehammer grooves and wall-to-wall virtuoso playing. DarWin is an ongoing musical exploration led by songwriter/guitarist DarWin and drumming legend Simon Phillips (Toto, Jeff Beck, The Who, Judas Priest, Tears for Fears). Since forming in 2015, the duo has collaborated with lead vocalist Matt Bissonette (Joe Satriani, Ringo Starr, Elton John), bass sensation Mohini Dey (Steve Vai, Willow Smith, Guthrie Govan), guitarist Greg Howe (Michael Jackson, Protocol, Justin Timberlake) as well as a hall of fame roster of musicians over the years, including Derek Sherinian, Julian Pollack (J3PO), Jesse Siebenberg, Andy Timmons, Billy Sheehan, Guthrie Govan, and many more. Earlier this year, DarWin released the song “Man vs. Machine“ to a chorus of praise and accolades. Reaching nearly 700k streams on YouTube to date, the official music video continues to attract new audiences around the globe. Watch the official music video HERE. |
