Human Impact, the laser-accurate noisy rock band of Unsane frontman Chris Spencer and Cop Shoot Cop frontman Jim Coleman, is releasing their second album, Gone Dark.
Gone Dark is not a cry out of the darkness, but a cry through the darkness - a powerful statement of resilience and confrontation in the face of the impending apocalypse.
With the addition of two noise-rock veterans - bassist Eric Cooper (Made Out of Babies, Bad Powers) and drummer John Syverson (Daughters) - Human Impact's arsenal is more formidable than ever.
Spencer worked out of a cabin in the woods in east Texas during Covid's 2020 isolation, but he came to Austin for an informal jam session with the pair in the bassist's garage.
A friendly performance of old Unsane material led to the rhythm section being fully integrated into Unsane and Human Impact for a 2022 European tour.
Recorded at Austin's Cedar Creek Studios with co-producer Andrew Schneider (Ken Mode, Cave In), Gone Dark features Human Impact's lingering grooves, bitter guitar overdubs, backwoods screams and dark clouds of noise, with a more intense and powerful sound.
