Downfall of Gaia releases video for new single, « Ephemerol »
On November 11th, Downfall Of Gaia will release their fourth full-length, Atrophy, via Metal Blade Records. Recorded in June 2016 at Hidden Planet Studio Berlin with Jan Oberg, Atrophy was mixed and mastered by Jack Shirley at Atomic Garden Studio in San Francisco, CA, and is a record about the absurdity of life and human existence – an album about the constant dialog between life and death. For a preview of Atrophy, a video for the new single, « Ephemerol« , can be viewed at:
Downfall of Gaia comments: « We are pleased to share the second single of our upcoming record with you guys! ‘Ephemerol’ represents the centerpiece of the story told on ‘Atrophy’ and captures the overall mood of the album in a visual way!

Downfall of Gaia is a dark wall, moving forward relentlessly, enveloping the listener, absorbing one’s spirit to take one into the realm of the band’s potent sound. Founded in 2008 and having undergone several line-up changes, the quartet is now comprised of the two founding members Dominik Goncalves dos Reis (guitar and vocals) and Anton Lisovoj (bass and vocals), plus Marco Mazzola (guitar) and Michael Kadnar (drums), who are located respectively in Berlin, Hamburg, and New York City. Although the group’s roots lie within the DIY / crust scene, Downfall of Gaia has expanded their sound to incorporate elements of black, doom, and sludge metal. For their efforts, the band has earned many « album of the year » accolades – and with their upcoming release, Atrophy, they will surely earn praise from media and fans alike, once again.
