Midwest prog outfit Dissona have made big strides since forming in the late aughts, touring with Norwegian stalwarts Leprous and playing with a list of genre greats (Symphony X, Opeth, Dark Tranquility, Fate’s Warning, Cynic). All of that progress gets its chance to shine on Receptor, Dissona’s first full-length since 2016 (plus a Blade Runner-themed EP in 2023), which you can hear below.
“Receptor stands as the most distilled and fully realized expression of our music to date,” Dissona tell Decibel. “Every track carries the weight of years of dedication, care, and evolution, and it’s our deepest hope that listeners feel that commitment through the intensity and depth these songs deliver.”
If you’re a fan of the genre, there’s something for everyone on Receptor: chugging, down-tuned guitars and growled vocals, tasteful electronics and symphonics, operatic clean vocals and ripping lead guitar performances. The album is out tomorrow via the band.
