SHUMAUN posts drum playthrough by Marco Minnemann (The Aristocrats) for “Some Memories”

Shumaun, the internationally acclaimed progressive rock sensation known for their dynamic sound and introspective lyrics, is expanding their discography this year with their fourth album, “Opposing Mirrors,” set to release at the end of June 2024. Prior to this release, they will have a couple of singles to whet the palettes of rock fanatics around the world, the first being “Some Memories”, which was released earlier this May. The band is now sharing the drum playthrough for the track by guest drummer Marco Minnemann (The Aristocrats).

“”Some Memories” possesses a remarkably potent and dynamic sound. The guitars seamlessly transition between low and high tones, heavy and light textures, slow and fast tempos, and chords and notes, adding depth to the composition. There is incredible drumming throughout the song, by Marco Minnemann. The bass serves as an embellishment, enhancing the overall musical landscape. The vocals and synths are intricately layered atop the instrumentation to give the song its various shapes and colors.” adds guitarist Tyler Kim.

​

Initially conceived as a solo project by Farhad Hossain, Shumaun quickly evolved into a collaborative powerhouse with the addition of talented musicians. They believe the album is best experienced when played in sequence. While not a traditional concept album, it maintains a thematic coherence, much like their previous releases. “Opposing Mirrors” is recommended for fans of Rush, Porcupine Tree, and Fates Warning.

“Opposing Mirrors” is due out on June 28, 2024, and available for pre-order at https://shumaun.bandcamp.com​
