REZN have released *Cycles in the Infinite Dream* via Sargent House. The album features nine tracks and runs for 42 minutes. It was recorded in November 2025 at Electrical Audio in Chicago, produced by Greg Nor.

Whilst its predecessors, *Burden* and *Solace* (2024 and 2023), delved into cosmic depths and post-metal territory, *Cycles in the Infinite Dream* embraces a brighter, psychedelic sensibility. Shoegaze and ambient textures now carry just as much weight as distortion. The opener, ’Rites of Passage’, builds up to massive riffs, whilst ‘Cloudfall’ blends heavy Isis-style riffs with Western-style lap steel and meditative vocals. Ømkara Gil plays the cello on two of the closing tracks, and Spencer Ouellette contributes everything from saxophone to synthesiser. Rob McWilliams’ vocals have been given more prominence in the mix than before.
