Dark and ominous, Runestompers haunting brand of industrial electronic music is as dreary and flooding as thy come by. The one man synthwave outfit from Salt Lake City crafts a hypnotically invigorating tune on “Ugly Truth” that seizes your attention and envelopes you in this cloud of darkness while showering you with synth sonic effects that flutter over and around you in this haze of distortion and dystopia that’s somehow so captivating that you can’t help but find yourself drawn into the maze of its soundscape.
It’s atmospheric in a way that’s inviting yet terrifying all at once. Wholly in his own lane, Runestomper’s brand of electronic synth music is far removed from the imitators. He’s an innovator paving his own lane with a sound that’s defiantly dark, creating this mesmerizingly melodic hellscape of a sonic environment for you to bask within.
