WILL OVER MATTER (Fin) – Ethnic Militias digipak CD out March 3rd 2026. YouTube song links and Record Shop X pre-order link below.

-Some WOM releases come together very quickly, others take considerably longer. This one spans nearly a decade from early conception to final release. Recorded between 2017 and 2020, the album was postponed multiple times - hence the early BeBu catalog number - and only assembled and finalized several years later. Musically, Ethnic Militias explores the full range of the project's output at this stage: structured power electronics and industrial tracks with rhythm and vocals sit alongside minimalist and free-form electronic pieces, covering a broad and eclectic spectrum. The thematic focus warrants a clear warning: depictions of tribal warfare and violent practices drawn from 20th-century African indigenous societies. Listeners sensitive to confrontational subject matter or extreme sound aesthetics may wish to look elsewhere.

01 Freedom War 4:29
02 Blade of the Circumciser 4:10
03 Cease-Fire 4:45
04 Rival Ethnic Militias 6:10
05 Kongo '64 13:22
