Amidst an already prolific and experimental period in his career, New York artist John Beckmann’s Mortal Prophets project has emerged as one of the most forward-thinking on the scene. Drawing from a vast and eclectic range of influences, Beckmann has consistently pushed boundaries, always aiming to offer something fresh and distinctive. And after following a wave of recognition for his recent work, he returns with his latest album 'ICNCLST/'.
Though Beckmann has often leaned into an art-rock aesthetic during his earlier projects, 'ICNCLST/' rekindles that earlier magic as it seeks to make this new collection one of his more progressive to date. Filled with rich, atmospheric textures that make each track feel more immersive and bolder than the last, this album embraces a tighter, more refined approach, offering up some of his most compelling work yet.
In what has been a remarkably creative period for Beckmann, 'ICNCLST/' stands out as a powerful addition to his expressive body of work. Delivering a brilliantly diverse array of efforts as it plays, Mortal Prophets continue to raise the bar in New York’s contemporary music scene.
