Dälek - Brilliance Of A Falling Moon

Experimental hip-hop legends dälek return with their latest album, Brilliance of a Falling Moon. Taking its name from a section of Erik Larson's 2011 novel, "In the Garden of Beasts," the album paints a passionate portrait of life and resistance in fascist America.

Conceived, composed, and produced by Will Brooks (aka MC dälek) and Mike Mare, Brilliance of a Falling Moon is a sprawling, uncompromising record that reflects the current political climate. Recorded at the group's Deadverse Studios between 2024 and 2025, the rhythms of Brilliance of a Falling Moon are driven by brutal, dusty drum breaks, enveloped in an ominous, otherworldly atmosphere. Taking aim at everything from state suppression of information to colonialism and Trump's demonization of immigrants, Brooks' rhymes practically burn with indignation at the current state of the world.
