DISCARDED SELF is Jarret Beach's (Destroy My Brains/Ashes of Yggdrasil) solo project, featuring local drummers from his area in Alberta, Canada. The material mainly focuses on topics such as pain, misery, the occult, rebellion, mind control, marginalization, torture, drug abuse and suicide, and can be described as blackened/sludge doom metal.
DISCARDED SELF has released "Orbitoclast", the first track from their eponymous debut album, due for release on Sarcophagus Recordings on April 30th.
Beach describes "Orbitoclast" thusly:
“The
song Orbitoclast is a collection of riffs and vocal ideas I actually started
this project with. It starts off slow, but gets straight down to it with a
thrashy section that has shredding vocals bleeding all over it. For those that
aren't aware, an Orbitoclast is the instrument that is hammered into a person's
brain, when they were the poor individual who received a lobotomy in the
late 40's early 50's. The song is of course about the horrifying practice of
lobotomy, but has an extra hidden meaning. It's a metaphor for giving your
trust to someone who doesn't have your best interests in mind, and only their
own personal interest, with no concern of who they damage along the way.”
