Belgian psychedelic post-metal visionaries Psychonaut return with “Stargazer,” a breathtaking new single and video from their forthcoming album World Maker, out now via Pelagic Records. The track is a sweeping fusion of power and vulnerability, balancing delicate melody with crushing intensity as the band explores themes of fatherhood, grief, and transcendence.
Named after frontman Stefan De Graef’s son — born in the rare and poetic “stargazer” position — “Stargazer” marks a deeply personal turning point for Psychonaut. The trio, known for their towering riffs, intricate rhythms, and spiritual lyricism, channel that trademark energy inward this time, crafting a sound that feels both intimate and cosmic.
Propelled by hypnotic momentum, the song drifts between shimmering, folk-tinged guitars and seismic breakdowns that crash like tidal waves. Beneath the heaviness lies reflection — an inquiry into existence itself and the fragile beauty of creation. With “Stargazer,” Psychonaut prove that even within the heaviest moments, there’s room for light, wonder, and renewal.
As the second single from World Maker, the track offers a glimpse into a record shaped by life’s most profound dualities — new beginnings and devastating loss, chaos and calm, searching and surrender.
