Danish alt-metal luminists MØL have released their third studio album DREAMCRUSH via Nuclear Blast Records and to celebrate have unveiled new single/video, 'Hud'.
The album follows a striking sequence of singles, from the brooding pull of 'Garland' and the urgent drive of 'Young' to the cathartic force of 'CRUSH', culminating today in the release of 'Hud', an immersive, shadow tinged track that plunges listeners into the record’s tense, otherworldly atmosphere. Across DREAMCRUSH, MØL sharpen their signature fusion of crushing heaviness and ethereal textures, delivering a sound that is at once unrelenting and eerily luminous.

Guitarist Nicolai Busse comments on the new single: "'Hud' was the first composition I started on after we released Diorama and after the birth of my daughter. Listening to the song always takes me back to sitting on our living room floor with a guitar in hand and plucking away while she would play. The track is seminal to me in that it not only helped me form ideas on how the record should sound, but also becoming a father."
Following the critically acclaimed Jord (2019) and Diorama (2021), MØL’s latest opus, DREAMCRUSH, sees the band's sound continue to evolve as they embrace new horizons, as a collective and as individuals. Drawing on influences from My Bloody Valentine, Cocteau Twins and Smashing Pumpkins, the album delves into recurring themes of belonging, resilience and finding a sense of home within oneself. By weaving melody into even their sharpest, most jagged moments, the band emerge with their most soul-stirring work to date.
DREAMCRUSH explores the precarious balance between hope and burden: dreams can sustain you, give you something to believe in - but the weight of expectation, the burden of reality can also mean that such dreams can become oppressive; they can just as easily shatter you. In amongst clouds of unfathomable loss and grief, the album offers rays of almost unbearable hope - a reminder that we can keep on dreaming despite ourselves.
MØL's latest offering delivers a record that is as merciless as it is tender, one that challenges, uplifts and lingers, a reminder that even in the heaviest darkness, there is a light worth chasing.
MØL now take DREAMCRUSH across Europe and the UK this February with support from Tayne and Cold Night For Alligators, as the band continue to push deeper into their own atmospheric and uncharted creative world.
