Celldweller returns with the meteoric new single, ‘My Disintegration,’ from the upcoming 5th studio album, “Satellites”. Electronic-rock mastermind composer/producer Klayton, returns with an aggressive, modern metal sound, juxtaposed by his signature synth programming and melodic vocals with progressive songwriting and arrangement. Combining elements of drum & bass, metal, and prog rock, the track showcases Celldweller’s expansive world-shattering sonic production over the course of 6 minutes. Continuing the Celldweller legacy of sci-fi inspired albums, lyrics, and artwork, ‘My Disintegration,’ follows 2017’s ‘Electric Eye’ as the 2nd release in a series of space-themed singles from the forthcoming album “Satellites.” 

The lyric video for ‘My Disintegration’ can be seen below.

Celldweller is a Detroit, Michigan-based Industrial music project by multi-musician Klayton. Klayton creates a hybrid fusion of digital and organic elements: designed soundscapes that take cues from electronic genres like drum and bass, electro, and dubstep, woven together with aggressive rock/metal and orchestral elements. Celldweller songs have been featured in many films, movie trailers, television shows and video games.

The name Celldweller was derived from a nickname his mother gave him when he was a teenager, dubbed “Cellar Dweller”, as he made all of his music in his parents’ cellar. Klayton had gained a devoted cult following in the mid 90s because of his industrial metal band Circle of Dust. After the dissolution of Circle of Dust, Klayton concurrently released both a posthumous collection of reworked Circle of Dust leftovers titled Disengage and an album for a new project, Angeldust, created in conjunction with illusionist Criss Angel. Both albums demonstrated Klayton‘s shift away from industrial metal and towards more electronic-modern industrial rock influences, incorporating richer electronic instrumentation and greater emphasis on melody. This change in style was a major step toward the sound that would come to define Celldweller‘s output. Klayton began creating songs for the Celldweller project in 1998/1999 and released a limited edition EP of three early Celldweller demos and two solo trance tracks, which quickly sold out. Klayton and Criss Angel parted ways in 2000 after three albums’ worth of material had been completed, allowing Klayton to devote all of his time to Celldweller.
