Following the success of first single 'Facing', the mirror masked collective Bonnacons of Doom have now released Signs' the title track from their forthcoming album.
Anonymous member of the band says this about the new single: "Trying to make sense of the world in the age of multiple meanings we see patterns emerging from the ether as a flicker of hope, only for them to disappear into dust. The most banal signifier can be a potent of the heaviest of times while we laugh off our impending destruction. Nagging digital echoes are buried by swathes of organic water only for new signs to emerge."
Watch the eye-popping visualiser for the track 'Signs' above – album 'Signs' is released on 27 October.

Building on the intimidating intensity of Bonnacons Of Doom’s self-titled debut, 'Signs' offers a sonic response to the tension between the urge to pursue continuity with our past and to adapt to our changing present. Hypnotic grooves and the monomaniacal intensity of the riff are fractured by digital interplay, electronics and the incantatory vocals of ceremonial leader Kate Smith, coalescing into a metaphysical force which stands defiant of easy categorisation.
Within these otherworldly manifestations on 'Signs' lurks solace in a place where the transcendent powers of heavy amplification, sonic explorations and forces darker and more unknowable can coalesce to cathartic and redeeming effect.
