Watch the official video for Taurus - taken from Shane's new album Bridge To Resolution. Out 5th June on Dissonance Productions.

Shane said of the song: "The passing of my parents hit me hard as anyone would expect - my fathers passing I believe now channeled a surge in musical creativity within me which seems at times relentless as I still try to deal with the emotional fall out - but my mother passing really knocked me to the ground and opened up a lot of buried feelings and hidden wounds .. I felt like an orphan that life has changed and even now a few years after I struggle .. having a family now I have to dig in daily to feel and to learn and love and grow and be strong for them as they were for me."

Dissonance Productions announces the release of Bridge To Resolution, the debut solo album by legendary Napalm Death bassist and songwriter Shane Embury, issued on CD and vinyl on 5 June.

Written and recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic, Bridge To Resolution is a deeply personal work shaped by a period of reflection and upheaval in Embury’s life. With touring halted, the unexpected downtime forced the Napalm Death musician to confront questions about identity, family and creativity. Drawing inspiration from the psychological concept of “shadow integration” - the idea that self-discovery comes from confronting the darker parts of one’s personality - the album documents a journey from despair toward resolution.

The eight tracks that make up Bridge To Resolution reveal a very different side of Embury’s musical world. While best known for his work in extreme metal, the album draws on his long-standing love of atmospheric goth and post-punk, with influences including Cocteau Twins, Killing Joke and The Mission. The result is a contemplative and expansive set of songs built around Embury’s use of synthesizers, guitars, bass and layered vocals.

Joining Embury on the album is Carl Stokes (ex-Cancer, Groundhogs, Current 93) on drums, while production duties are handled by Simon Efemey, whose credits include work with Paradise Lost, Crowbar and Amorphis. Embury performs all guitar and bass parts himself, with the music reflecting the creative burst that emerged during a time of personal struggle and introspection.
