No Remedy is my latest album for Caustic Reverie. Check it out on Bandcamp, Spotify, and all the usual music spots starting Friday April 2nd. The first video comes from Haints, inspired by the Harrow County comic series by by Tyler Crook and Cullen Bunn.
I took part in the second big Shedrat Industries multi-band cover. We recorded a new version of the Children of Bodom classic Downfall, in memory of the passing of Alexi Laiho.
I tackled drums, vocals, and keyboards. Bass and mixing comes courtesy of Domo from Silura. Guitarists include Thomas from Seven Cities Dead, Wojo from Reality Crutch/Sumptus Ignis, and Austin nailed the solo. Full credits in the video link.
Children of Bodom’s first two albums came onto my radar near the end of high school and were really important in pushing the boundaries of heavy music in my formative period. RIP, Alexi.

“The Flooded Assembly” appeals to me more as a narrative of emotion rather than exposition – almost a mental snapshot of quarantined thought. Each song has a solid point, a theme to convey, but much like a person locked within their own thoughts, subtle shifts in the mind can cause one to lose focus, or to be suddenly overcome with strange emotions seeming unbidden; the human mind becomes accustomed to its confines, about to compartmentalize the isolation, thereby finding the time to briefly reason with other emotions and imagination.
The first single from The Flooded Assembly is out today, including an animated video I made with VSDC.
Mike from Avant Music News has published the first review of my upcoming Caustic Reverie album.
“The Flooded Assembly is a haunting and ominous offering, with stark drones, quiet passages, organ-like synth, and slowly evolving sounds. The textures are airy but dark, with Schurman carefully using space to set moods…”
