- A journey past the edge of imagination

KUALA LUMPUR — John Will Handel officially announces the upcoming release of his highly anticipated full-length album 《BEYOND》, arriving April 1st, 2026 under the creative collective MONNARROW. This new project marks a striking evolution in his artistic journey, unveiling a world that merges music, storytelling, and visual art into one cohesive experience.

“Beyond” is the latest full-length album by Twelve Gates SHIERMEN, a bold and immersive project that marks a new chapter in the creative universe of John Will Handel. Created and written entirely under MONNARROW, and initiated by John Will himself, 《BEYOND》 features 16 meticulously crafted tracks that venture past familiar boundaries—sonically, emotionally, and narratively.

More than just a music album, 《BEYOND》 functions as a hidden gateway into John Will Handel’s upcoming novel “Marty W. Handel.” Listeners will uncover layered stories, symbolic details, and interconnected clues embedded throughout its soundscape. This release also begins to reveal deeper meanings behind John Will’s earlier albums, reframing them as pieces of a larger, long-form narrative he has been quietly building for years.

Musically, 《BEYOND》 pushes into fresh territory—embracing new styles, genres, and ideas. While it represents a fearless departure from convention, it still preserves the identity, emotional depth, and signature resonance that define John Will Handel’s work. Each track stands as its own experience, yet together they form a unified, cinematic journey meant to be explored, decoded, and felt on multiple levels.

The album’s visual identity is crafted with equal intentionality. The official album artwork is hand-designed by JR, a digital illustrator known for his expressive, human-driven aesthetic. With zero AI involvement, the artwork mirrors the album’s core values—authenticity, originality, and emotional truth.

《BEYOND》 is not just a listening experience.

It is an invitation—to look deeper, listen closer, and step into a world that has always been there, waiting to be revealed.
