2 piece powerviolence masters Iron Lung return with their first LP in 5 years, which seems like an eternity amongst others in the genre. Powerviolence bands are typically known for large outputs of new material, given the short song structures and production rate. Iron Lung has participated in many splits and even put out some EP’s in their hayday, but 5 years between full lengths is fairly hard to come by. Continue reading »

I have only recently gotten into experimental band Wreck And Reference. I have heard of the band in the past, but their latest album Content was the first time I actually sat down to check them out. After listening to the band’s two-song EP, I was blown away. Wreck And Reference aren’t a band you come across often. Their music is interesting and compelling and I cannot get enough.
After watching the band’s latest music video, I have nothing but questions about what is rattling around in the minds of Wreck And Reference. Continue reading »

The Fader have premiered the title track from Deafheaven’s upcoming album Sunbather, which is due out on June 11th. For this song’s ten minute duration, Deafheaven send you spiraling through tunnels of melodic atmosphere and ethereal beauty all with a harsh edge. The guitars’ razor sharp tremolos and the drums thunderous blast beats create a whirlwind of madness yet the melodic atmospheres seems to deafen the blow a bit. I am really excited to hear this album in full now. You can stream the song below as well as peep the dates for their upcoming tour with Marriages.

Canadian grind veterans Fuck The Facts are currently prepping the release of their new EP Amer which is set for release this Summer. Whenever I go into new Fuck The Facts, I expect perfection. I know these dudes (and lady) and I know they are capable of absolute awesomeness. Well, of course, I was right. This new track “L’enclume et le marteau,” which means “The Anvil and The Hammer,” is a fucking riot. Continue reading »

The avant-garde troupe Kayo Dot have released a thirteen minute teaser of unmastered audio from their upcoming album Hubardo, which is slated for a Fall release.

You can get a taste of the new album below and be sure to pre-order the album at this location.

I have fallen out of touch with Norway’s Blood Red Throne over the last few years. The last album I listened to by the band was their 2009 album Souls of Damnation, with their 2011 release Brutalitarian Regime completely flying by my radar. And now, after a bit of silence, Blood Red Throne has returned and are riding on the release of their latest album Blood Red Throne. The band has released a new music video for their track Primitive Killing Machine which you can check out below. Continue reading »

The Dillinger Escape Plan released their highly anticipated new album One of Us is the Killer yesterday to critical acclaim. Everyone seems to be digging it, even Shaun Lopez. Shaun Lopez of Far and Crosses fame has put together a pretty freaking catchy, club banging remix of the title track. You can stream the remix below but make sure your mother doesn’t walk in on you “twerking” it.

Mouth of the Architect have released another track from their upcoming album, Dawning, which will see a release through Translation Loss on June 25th. The track is entitled “How This Will End” and can be streamed exclusively through Lambgoat. The song is eleven minutes of pure angelic heaviness; blending the perfect amount of atmosphere and crushing melodic sludge metal. It’s quite the impressive piece. Check out now!
