The Chicago noise shifters Locrian will return this year with their follow up to 2011′s excellent The Clearing.

Pre-orders for the effort can be found here. No track listing has been made available as of yet. The band has also released an official trailer for the album, which features a short snippet of the album’s title track. It’s sounds trippy and eerie as hell!

According to Kurt Ballou’s (Converge, etc) Facebook page, KEN mode have entered Kurt’s own Godcity Studios once again to work on source material for Brian McOmber’s score to Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap’s upcoming film, Ugly. I am curious to see what “source material” they are working on and how it will translate into film. Stay tuned for more updates as they become available. But for now, jam KEN mode’s song “Never Was” below.

a, Capsule, No Ghost, review

By Lane Oliver

Capsule’s 2011 album No Ghost was one of the more original records to be released during that year. The Florida post-hardcore outfit stood out from the pack with their masterful combining of complex melodies and volatile rhythms, topped off with a hardcore attitude. Capsule has returned this year with five new tracks contained within a blistering new EP. The new release, entitled [A], sees Capsule exploring new territory while maintaining their originality.

Good Old Evil, Nonsun, review

By Lane Oliver

Do you ever have the strange desire to be crushed underneath tons and tons of raw, uninhibited sonic fury? Well, Ukrainian doom duo Nonsun has got you covered! The band released their debut release back in December; the four song, nearly fifty minute Good Old Evil. Just like the title implies, these are four tracks of evil doom metal that will completely flatten your worthless husk.

giant squid, Grayceon. peal and the end of days, review

By Lane Oliver

Giant Squid sister band Grayceon really won me over back in 2011 with their breathtaking album, All We Destroy. The way the band combines virtuosic cello playing and cinematic progressive metal is completely enthralling and thought-provoking. After hearing that record I was craving more. Luckily, Grayceon have returned this year with a two track, thirty minute EP entitled Pearl and the End of Days. These two tracks combine the most impressive elements of Grayceon’s musical formula into one compact and mind blowing package.
