Melodic death metal quartet FALSIMONIAN have released their most experimental single offering, "Judgment" alongside a visualizer created by audio-visual artist Brian Pinke aka pinkenoise. The track delivers a sonic fusion of death metal, progressive metal, and jazz. FALSIMONIAN's forthcoming EP, For Survival, is scheduled to arrive independently on November 7, 2026.

FALSIMONIAN is pleased to announce an exciting collaboration with audio-visual artist Brian Pinke, out of South Carolina. Pinke performed multiple reactive takes to the track using a modular synthesizer connected to his custom video generating rig. He edited the takes to create the final version, resulting in a bespoke analog video experience.

Each video performance is unique and impossible to replicate, and the intricate analog circuitry creates glitch-like art that is both haunting and beautiful fusing retro and modern aesthetics.

"We are beyond excited to collaborate with Brian, this video aligns with our values of supporting human-made art, and we are honored to have a custom visualizer that was performed alongside our music"

The US and Mexico based melodic death metal band FALSIMONIAN infuse their dynamic heavy sound with influences from Mexican folk and Latin-American roots music, as well as progressive elements and jazz. Centered around a fictional, dystopian world, the upcoming EP considers the everyday impact onto individuals who are living under the threat and fear of a world-ending catastrophe.

For Survival was produced by Jesus Fuentes Valverde, with mixing and mastering by Gil Andrade. Drums engineering was undertaken by Ruben Sanchez at Urvn Studios, with guitars and keyboards recorded by Jesus Fuentes Valverde and vocals recorded by Erick Valverde. Guitar and vocal editing, and bass programming, was by Jesus Fuentes Valverde. Additional guitars on "Limitless", "Judgment" and "For Survival" were recorded and edited by Cesar Robles.

All artwork photography for the EP and single releases are from X-Rays Erick Valverde has taken over the last 10 years. The artworks utilize original photographs of a colorful sunset as the light source behind the X-Rays. These colors are commonly seen in the desert skies of the US/Mexico border. Ariadne Willis adjusted the photographs for the layout and design of the EP and single covers. Erick's accidents and health struggles have also indirectly influenced the overall theme of the EP. Additional photography by Rancho Creativo Studios.
