From the hallowed heights of power to the haunted halls of Hell, Sönus strides through… The Planes of Torment!
Following the critical acclaim of 2022's Doom Charts topping "Usurper of the Universe”, SÖNUS' multi-instrumental mastermind, David Wachsman, was riding a wave of momentum as his personal life sank to an all time low; Injuries, surgeries, financial woes, and heartbreak. Beaten down, but undeterred, he put his faith in Rock and assembled a powerful team of sonic sorcerers, determined to etch their names into the annals of Heavy Metal history.
With Wachsman on the pen, lead vocals, rhythm, and lead guitar; joining on bass, the lord of the low-end, Dave Reno. On drums: the bringer of thunder, Colin Drake Jaramillo. Joining them in the studio (and, for a time, on stage), the Titan from Tipperary, “Gory” Mike Gorman on rhythm guitar (and featuring special guest Will Harper on flute in the epic “Scorpio”) a fearsome band united to forge an infernal slab of Heavy Metal, “Planes of Torment.” This album is the culmination of more than 3 years of literal blood, sweat, and tears.
Recorded live in the studio to capture the raw, untamed power of their performances, it's a blistering, hell-bent journey through madness, heartbreak, and despair. Yet, within it burns the unrelenting will to survive, to fight, and to triumph with a sound that harkens back to the golden age of hard rock and the dawn of heavy metal. With a fully booked summer of California shows and music videos currently in production, The Planes of Torment await — May you find the strength to endure the apocalyptic storm that is SÖNUS!
