There’s no audio on their website or Bandcamp — the latter has shirts if you find yourself digging the logo — but I managed to find a snippet of Insomniac music on their Instagram, included in a Reel plugging their tour with Dead Register that ended last week. It’s just a few seconds, teaser of a teaser, but better than nothing. And even from that, I think you can get a sense that space is important in their sound, and that there’s a melody/heft collusion happening in that open-feeling expanse. I’m not gonna tag them with a genre or anything based on eight-to-10 seconds of hearing them, but that post is below, or a link to it is below, or whatever I can’t embed shit anymore the internet is broken if I could abandon ship and jump off the planet I’d already be gone.

Of course, the reason I spent upwards of seven earth minutes actually looking for a thing — in this case an Insomniac song — was because the band’s newly signed to Blues Funeral Recordings and Jadd‘s on a roll for the post-pandemic 2020s. Will be looking forward to hearing this one when the time comes.

From social media, which, sadly, is where these kinds of things are still posted:

We rarely get the chance to sign bands in person, so our founder was immensely grateful to meet and witness the extraordinary INSOMNIAC perform here in the desert last week, and we’re tremendously stoked to welcome them to the label! 🗿🌙🌵

Atlanta’s INSOMNIAC blend mind-expanding psychedelia with cosmic atmospherics and drony post-metal in a way that’s utterly transporting. Featuring members of Zoroaster, Hank III and Deceased, INSOMNIAC will guide you on an aural trip through your mind’s peaks and valleys toward enlightenment. Fans of REZN, Dead Meadow, King Buffalo and Russian Circles, prepare to journey within and ascend toward enlightenment when Blues Funeral presents INSOMNIAC’s debut LP this year! 🤘

Insomniac:
Juan Garcia – Bass Guitar
Mike Morris – Guitar, Vocals
Van Bassman – Vocals
Amos Rifkin – Percussion, Vocals
Alex Avedissian – Guitar
