Humanist Release Their Self-Titled Album
Written by Johnson Stephen on November 8, 2019
Humanist release their self-titled album ‘Humanist’ February 7th 2020 via Ignition Records.
Humanist is a big, ambitious record, which showcases the songwriting and production of Rob Marshall (guitarist of Exit Calm and co-writer of Mark Lanegan’s celebrated “Gargoyle” album) who wrote, played and produced all the music: a swirling Niagara of fuzzed-out industrial melody and noise, flowing into darker, more brooding territories.
The inspiration for Humanist came after watching ‘The Living Room’ – a documentary about Gavin Clarke, a singer Rob had once shared a manager with. Waking the next day to find Gavin had sadly taken his own life, Rob was so moved by the situation, he sat d
own to write, quickly developing a piece that sparked an idea for a soaring, ambitious project that dealt with the deepest of themes – mortality, the ways we find meaning, the liberation of the human spirit.
