Seven long years on from their sophomore release, Subterranean Disposition returns in 2023 with a new full-length work, Individuation.
Building on previous releases, a self-titled debut in 2012 and Contagiuum and the Landscapes of Failure in 2016, this third outing sees Dan Nahum return to the drum throne, as well as the addition of Justin Min, a live member of the group since 2018, on Bass. With a powerful rhythm section behind Terry’s compositions, the new music continues the Doom lineage of the group, albeit at times through Death metal, Black metal and Experimental Lenses to shape long songs moving through dynamically different musical landscapes with ease, prompting the listener lyrically to look to ones inner world for guidance, inspired by the work of Carl Jung.
Individuation was recorded in several locations over the course of two years and mixed and mastered by Adam Calaitzis at Toyland studios in Melbourne. The album cover art comes from the talented Dan Sealey at Atmoscreative.
Individuation will be released digitally on June 24! A week later, Subterranean Disposition will open for the mighty Esoteric in Melbourne. A CD version of the album, presented in a 4 panel digipack with a 12 page booklet will be released on August 25.

Shifting seamlessly from soul crushing doom metal to deeply atmospheric and sultry saxophone tones, opening track 'Arduous Becoming' - now available to stream on Bandcamp, Youtube, and Spotify - provides a nice taste of some of what you'll hear on 'Individuation'
