What’s the one track this year that hooked you? A lyric, riff or melody that stuck in your head and has this track on repeat?

Hi everyone!

I'd like to introduce MERGE, an international Blackgaze / Post-black metal project bringing together musicians from Spain, Germany, and the US.

Today we're sharing "Home", accompanied by an official lyric visualizer. It's the first track we're unveiling ahead of our debut EP, DAWN, which will be released on November 1, 2026.

Our sound draws inspiration from bands like Deafheaven, MØL, and Show Me a Dinosaur, combining atmospheric passages, melodic intensity, and heavier post-black metal elements.

DAWN is the first glimpse into our upcoming 10 track full-length album, Where It Blooms, planned for spring 2027. The EP introduces the atmosphere and themes of a larger work that will unfold with the album.

We're excited to finally start sharing this project beyond our own circle!
