Psychedelic Stoner Rockers Hum Releases New Album "three" This Week!

German psychedelic stoner rock trio HUM releases new album three this Friday, December 12th on Tonzonen Records/ Cargo Records.

Three letters. Three musicians. Three instruments. Three years. Count von Count would have loved this album...

Founded in Frankfurt am Main, Germany in 2019 by three musicians with different musical backgrounds. The pull of slow, heavy grooves connects the trio consisting of Harri Gottschalk, Martin Krause, and Florian Schnaith. The unique sound they develop is profound and powerful.

After their debut album ONE (2022), HUM continue to explore their dark stoner soundscapes. three features both powerful post-rock songs and psychedelic sound experiments. Each track seems to pursue an idea; each one a 4-minute journey. The themes revolve around environmental destruction, social aberrations, and space trips.

three is the album for the apocalypse or for an evening in space. But there's no shortage of fun: the darkness is presented on fat, slow grooves. The pieces are compact and melodic. Catharsis is the goal: if you listen with open ears, you might feel better after the 11 tracks and 41 minutes...

"An exciting journey through musical soundscapes (surf, gothic/dark wave, krautrock, and prog rock) spanning several decades. HUM's signature heavy riffs (in the shadow of Godzilla) with complex rhythms and breaks are expanded with new elements such as surf guitar, synth sounds, and vocal experiments. The vocals, mostly distorted with effects, are used sparingly and purposefully, often with short text fragments that underscore the mood of the songs lyrically. In addition, there are three instrumental sound collages that serve as dark transitions between the songs. A certain common thread seems to run through the album thematically."
