Argonauta Records and its (un)parallel label Octopus Rising are thrilled to welcome MoldEra to their growing roster of visionary heavy acts. To mark the signing, the Belgian post-sludge outfit unveils their brand new single and official video, “Falling Through the Ashes”. The track offers a powerful and immersive introduction to their upcoming second album “Colonize”, due out later this year.
MoldEra was born in 2018 from the fusion of four anthropomorphic mold spores thriving in the post-industrial wastelands of Liège. Drawn together by a passion for slow, heavy, deep and hypnotic sounds, rooted in stoner rock meadows and sludge-doom marshes, the band cultivated their first sonic experiments during the pandemic and released their debut album “Waste Pile Dunes” in 2022.
Now, after years of refining their live presence and expanding their musical palette, MoldEra return with “Colonize”, a conceptually rich and sonically massive exploration of ecological collapse, industrial ruin and societal decay. Their latest single “Falling Through the Ashes” sets the tone: meditative yet crushing. It is a soundtrack for a world teetering on the edge of self-destruction, and a tribute to the resilience of life in the ruins of late capitalism.
The video, available now on YouTube, captures the essence of MoldEra’s aesthetic. It is immersive, symbolic and unflinchingly raw. Fans of Sleep, Om, Yob, Elder, King Buffalo, Isis and The Melvins will find familiar textures, yet MoldEra’s voice remains uniquely their own: organic, conceptual and deeply rooted in the decay of our time.

![LȲKAA - Izome (visualizer) [Octopus Rising / Argonauta Records]
LȲKAA are a doomy heavy metal band from Saxony, Germany, formed during the pandemic winter of 2022 inside an old Cold War bunker.
Today, LȲKAA unveil “Izome”, the first single taken from their forthcoming debut album “Light Eater”, and the first release following their signing with Octopus Rising / Argonauta Records.
Combining dark heavy metal, doom-laden atmospheres and post-punk-infused melancholy, LȲKAA create music shaped by isolation, tension and the darker side of human experience.
No occult rituals. No theatrical imagery. Just suffocating fog, delay-drenched guitars and heavy songs about surviving a hostile world.
For fans of: DOOL, In Solitude, The Devils Blood.
