The atmospheric soundscapes of Spanish dark post-rock quintet Müntrails are set to captivate audiences worldwide as they proudly announce their signing with Wormholedeath Records. Their groundbreaking album, “The Cenobite Tapes,” is scheduled for release on May 2, 2025
Darklight music from distant planet Earth.
Formed in 2022, Müntrails—featuring Dibasson (vocals), Beszel (guitars, programming, backing vocals), Zennon (keyboards), BasLag (bass), and Shevek (drums)—has captivated audiences with their genre-blurring fusion of atmospheric post-rock, melancholy melodies, and raw, ritualistic energy. The band describes their journey as a quest to create deeply personal and timeless music, weaving their conceptual narratives through their recordings and electrifying live performances.
Having already made waves with their previous EPs (Venom To Come, Disorder Road, and Dance Divine), Müntrails has built an impressive foundation, with The Cenobite Tapes marking a new chapter in their sonic evolution.
In a statement reflecting their excitement, the band shared, “Müntrails is very pleased and proud to be part of the Wormholedeath records team and is fully convinced that there will be interesting events and outstanding successes working together. Hailzzzz!!”
A Journey Through Sound: “The Cenobite Tapes”
“The Cenobite Tapes” is not just an album; it’s an immersive experience that invites listeners to traverse a rich tapestry of sound and emotion. While not a concept album in the traditional sense, it weaves together diverse musical landscapes that resonate with a profound sense of melancholy and rebellion.
From the hauntingly dense passages of “Pathways” to the raw intensity of “Ancient Enemy” and “We Can Dance,” which feature powerful bass lines and ritualistic guitars, Müntrails showcases their ability to blend emotional depth with sonic ferocity. The album also explores more progressive and ambient territories in tracks like “Heretic Eyes” and “Erase My Name,” post-rock elements are intricately layered throughout, creating a nuanced listening experience.
Despite its lack of a defined concept, “The Cenobite Tapes” possesses a subtle common thread that emphasizes the band’s unique self-expression. This distinctive character makes the album both engaging and accessible, inviting listeners to become active participants in its emotional and dramatic journey. The result is a cohesive listening experience that feels like a living, breathing entity, where ambient musicality and vocal expression reign supreme.
