SAINT VITUS "Lillie: F-65"

Label: Season of Mist
Release: 27 April 2012



"SAINT VITUS are the godfathers of American Doom Metal. Seventeen years after their previous full-length "Die Healing" was released, these legends return with yet another masterpiece. "Lillie: F-65" includes the trademark song writing style so beloved by SAINT VITUS fans: There is the cataclysmic and unmistakable guitar sound of co-founder Dave Chandler full of reverbs, feedbacks, flanger and apocalyptic distortion leading to amazing and magical solos. "Lillie: F-65" is furthermore graced with the deeply resonant vocals of Scott "Wino" Weinrich who returns to record an album with the band for the first time since the glorious "V" (1989) and whom many consider to be the classic SAINT VITUS vocalist. Doom adepts will delight in the honey slow dripping of notes and the sudden energetic outbursts, which are as painfully depressing as sweet. Formed in 1979, SAINT VITUS were largely influenced by BLACK SABBATH, whose song "Saint Vitus Dance" obviously inspired the moniker. Since debut album "Saint Vitus" (1984) these Americans have released six more full-lengths and two EPs that are summarily considered to be classics of their genre. Despite some hiatus and changes over the years SAINT VITUS remained as true icons of Doom. Now the US legends are back and stronger than ever with "Lillie: F-65". Bow down and enjoy!"

Tracklisting
1. Let Them Fall
2. The Bleeding Ground
3. Vertigo
4. Blessed Night
5. The Waste of Time
6. Dependence
7. Withdrawal

Line-up
Dave Chandler: guitar
Scott "Wino" Weinrich: vocals
Mark Adams: bass
Henry Vasquez: drums

BLACK SHEEP WALL "No Matter Where It Ends"

Label: Season of Mist
Release: 23 March 2012



"The US state of California evokes mental images of beaches, blue skies, easy living sun and surfing. Enter BLACK SHEEP WALL. Hailing from Moorpark in the greater area of Los Angeles, these Americans redefine the meaning of heaviness. Pitch black guitar clouds are seething and billowing on dark horizons. The leaden droning of Sludge creates a miasma of melancholy and foreboding of doom. Massive vocals erupt out of Trae Malone's gravel-filled throat with veins standing out thick as cables from a swollen neck. While bursting from the same energy that drives classic NOLA bands like EYEHATEGOD, BLACK SHEEP WALLincorporate the structured patterns of late NEUROSIS with a little dash of the groove found in early MASTODON and in tranquil moments even a subtle hint of the melodic scope that marks DEFTONES. Founded by a bunch of middle school kids playing together in Moorpark, BLACK SHEEP WALL officially formed in late 2006. A debut "I Am God Songs" was recorded without any expectations as the band began to crumble before the album was completed. Yet parts of the recordings found their way to the net, where they created such a buzz that "I Am God Songs" was signed for release in Europe in October 2008. Since then several line-up changes occurred, countless songs were written and forgotten until BLACK SHEEP WALL re-emerged out of self-inflicted obscurity with the most stunning "No Matter Where It Ends" now to be released on Season of Mist. Get ready for a painful ride as heavy as dark yet catchy as it can be."

Tracklisting
1. Agnostic Demon
2. Liminality
3. Vitruvian God
4. Black Church
5. Torrential
6. Ambient Ambitions

'II' will be available on CD, limited LP and digital download on June 18th 2012.

Be prepared for downtuned and pummeling riffgalore.

For fans of High on Fire, Black Cobra and Electric Wizard!

1. Burial of Men
2. Warmonger
3. The Drowning
4. Emperor
5. The Torch And The Bearer
6. Entering The Woods

PROCESS OF GUILT "FÆMIN" CD out in June

3 years after the release of «Erosion», Process of Guilt finally return with their most accomplished effort to date. Exploring the monolithic roots of their music even further, «FÆMIN» displays a new level of heavyness and purpose for the four-piece, while preserving the dark atmospheres already associated with their music intact. Mixed by Andrew Schneider (at Translator Audio Studios in New York) and mastered by Collin Jordan (at The Boiler Room in Chicago), «FÆMIN» builds upon 5 concise tracks, shorter for the band standards, but overall more intense and scorching than anything they’ve done before. Steadily moving through dynamic rhythm changes, the band explores a more diverse vocal approach, mantra-like grooves, a crushing rhythm session, an everlasting love for feedback and more huge riffs than you can ask for in under 45 minutes. With «FÆMIN», Process of Guilt paint desolate sonic landscapes and dig their own place in the scene even deeper. «FÆMIN» will mark the first  Process of Guilt release through Division Records and will be available in Portugal through Bleak Recordings. With an international release date set for early June (UK, France and Benelux), a special pre-order package featuring the CD and an exclusive t-shirt (printed on demand!) will be available at the official  Process of Guilt website until April, 24 – all orders will be shipped in the beginning of May.
