INTER ARMA: Streamen 45-Minuten-Opus "The Cavern" auf Pitchfork | Streaming 45 minutes opus, "The Cavern", via Pitchfork



INTER ARMA aus Richmond/Virginia streamen ihre 45-minütige Single-Song-Ep mit dem Namen "The Cavern" vollständig auf Pitchfork

Bereits im Sommer 2009 geschrieben, in den darauf folgenden Jahren überarbeitet und perfektioniert, wurde "The Cavern" im vergangenen Jahr während der Pausen zwischen den Touren mit BARONESS, RUSSIAN CIRCLES, ULCERATE u.a. gemeinsam mit Produzent Mikey Allred in den Dark Art Studios in Madison unter den selben Bedingungen wie die "Sky Burial" LP aufgenommen.

INTER ARMAs "The Cavern" ist ein Opus, der ohne Zweifel für lange Zeit als ein visionäres und von Ausdauer zeugendes Kunstwerk angesehen werden wird, und es schafft, innerhalb eines einzigen Songs den Bogen vom amerikanischen Extrem-Metal über Doom und Stoner, bis hin zu progressivem Rock zu spannen.

Die EP, auf welcher WINDHANDs Dorthia Cotrell als Gastsängerin in Erscheinung tritt, wird am 14. Oktober offiziell in Nordamerka, am 13. Oktober im Vereinigten Königreich/weltweit und am 10. Oktober in Deutschland, den Benelux-Ländern und Finnland veröffentlicht. Die physische Form des Albums kann an diesem Ort vorbestellt werden, die digitale Variante HIER.

Desweiteren wird die Band noch im Oktober die Ostküste der USA mit einigen Shows betouren, u.a. als Headliner auf der Metal Sucks/Metal Injection CMJ-Show in Brookly/New York. Das Quintett bestätigte darüber hinaus eine Europatour als Co-Headliner mit MANTAR im November und kompletten Dezember. INTER ARMA wird auch auf dem nächsten Maryland Deathfest auftreten. Am Ende des Posts findet ihr die vollständige Liste der Tourtermine.

ENGLISH

Richmond, VA genre-destroying metallers INTER ARMA are streaming their entire 45+ minute, single song EP entitled The Cavern via Pitchfork HERE.

Originally written during the summer of 2009, but reworked and perfected over the last few years, The Cavern was recorded last year during breaks from the relentless touring the band did with the likes of Baroness, Russian Circles, Ulcerate and numerous others. The recording was captured with producer Mikey Allred at Dark Art Studios in Madison, TN, the same surroundings and setup that captured last year's monolithic Sky Burial LP.

Shifting from Americana laced extreme metal to doom to stoner rock to prog all within a single song, INTER ARMA's The Cavern is an opus that will surely be heralded for years to come as a work of true artistic vision and endurance.

The EP, which features guest vocals from Windhand’s Dorthia Cottrell will see it’s official release in North America on October 14th, in the UK/World onOctober 13th and in Germany/Benelux/Finland on October 10th. Physical pre-orders are currently available via this location with digital pre-orders available HERE.

Additionally, the band has announced a short run of East Coast shows this October, including headlining the official MetalSucks/Metal Injection CMJ Showcase in Brooklyn, NY. The quintet has also confirmed a co-headlining European tour with German sludge duo Mantar this November through December.

PIG DESTROYER: Streamen komplette 2-Song-Doom-EP | Stream full "Mass & Volume" EP



Die Grindcore-Band PIG DESTROYER kündigten kürzlich ihre Pläne zur Veröffentlichung einer Zwei-Song-Doom-EP an, die den Titel "Mass & Volume" trägt. Bisher und für einen begrenzten Zeitraum gab es das Release nur als digitale Veröffentlichung, dessen Einnahmen direkt an die Familie des Relapse Records-Angestellten Pat Egan gingen, der letztes Jahr auf tragische Weise ums Leben kam. Jetzt wird das Kult-Release zum allerersten Mal auch in physischen Formaten erhältlich sein. Heute präsentieren PIG DESTROYER den kompletten Stream der monolithischen EP.



Die zwei Songs auf "Mass & Volume", für welche PIG DESTROYER die Handbremse gewaltig angezogen haben, wurden während der Sessions zur 2007er LP "Phantom Limb" komponiert und aufgenommen. Herausgekommen sind zwei atemberaubende, epische Doom-Songs. Das Album wird am 14. Oktober in Nordamerika, am 13. Oktober in Großbritannien/Europa/weltweit und am 10. Oktober in Deutschland/Benelux/Finland erhältlich sein. "Mass & Volume" gibt es in einer limitierten weltweiten Auflage von 2000 CDs und auf limitiertem farbigem Vinyl, welches vom tollen Cover-Artwork des legendären Künstlers Arik Roper geziert wird (HIGH ON FIRE, SLEEP).

Physikalische Vorbestellungen können hier getätigt werden; digitale Vorbestellungen hier.

Außerdem gab die Band zusätzliche US-Tour-Dates inklusive Shows mit EYEHATEGOD, RINGWORM, DROPDEAD und FULL OF HELL in bislang unbespielten Städten bekannt.

Grindcore masters PIG DESTROYER recently announced plans to release a two song doom EP entitled "Mass & Volume". Previously available for a limited time as a digital only release with all of the proceeds going to the family of former Relapse Records employee Pat Egan, who tragically passed away last year, this cult release will now be available on physical formats for the first time ever. Today, PIG DESTROYER present the the full stream of this monolithic EP.

Listen to "Mass & Volume” on Soundcloud here

Written and recorded during the final hours of the sessions for 2007’s "Phantom Limb" LP, "Mass & Volume" finds PIG DESTROYER’s typically break neck speed virtually come to a grinding halt with two epic songs of crushing doom. The album will be available on October 14th in North America, October 13th in the UK/Europe/World and October 10th in Germany/Benelux/Finland. "Mass & Volume" will be limited to a one time press of 2000 CDs worldwide and a limited run of colored vinyl, each featuring the stunning cover art from legendary artist Arik Roper (High on Fire, Sleep).


Physical pre-orders are available here with digital pre-orders available here

Additionally, the band has revealed more upcoming US tour dates including shows with EYEHATEGOD, RINGWORM, DROPDEAD and FULL OF HELL in numerous cities that they have never before played.

SERPENTINE PATH: Neues Album erscheint Ende Mai auf Relapse Records! | New album out on Relapse Records late May!


Following a two-year release stretch since their bold self-titled debut LP was issued, Relapse Records this week unveils the release details on the highly-anticipated second LP from New York City-based morbid sludge metal executioners SERPENTINE PATH.

Emanations will see parole via Relapse on May 27th (North America), May 26th  (UK / Europe 
/ World), and May 23 (Germany / Benelux / Finland) on CD, LP and digital formats. A new trailer featuring a sample of the audio, as well as the cover art by in-house Relapse artist Orion Landau and more has been released. View the album trailer here (YouTube) or here (Dailymotion), and preorders for the album can be placed here.

Emanations Track Listing:

1. House Of Worship
2. Treacherous Waters
3. Claws
4. Disfigured Colossus
5. Systematic Extinction
6. Torment
7. Essence of Heresy

Born from within the smoldering remains of Unearthly Trance in 2011, UT members, bassist Jay Newman, drummer Darren Verni and vocalist Ryan Lipynsky (The Howling Wind) recruited guitarist Tim Bagshaw (ex-Ramesses, ex-Electric Wizard) to complete the SERPENTINE PATH lineup. Their crushing, self-titled debut full-length was referred to as “thudding death-doom that will have genre enthusiasts rolling their stoned skulls in graveyard genuflection” by Revolver, and “a contender for doom album of the year” by Decibel.

Now officially augmented by new second guitarist Stephen Flam, the mastermind behind NYC doom/death legends Winter, SERPENTINE PATH brings forth their most demoralizing and anguish-filled slow-motion chaos yet, with the newly-completed Emanations. As with their first album, Emanations was recorded by the band’s Jay Newman, after which it was honed to devastating perfection at Audiosiege, the album capturing forty-five minutes of true sludge punishment with seven brand new songs from this true underground all-star team. Sure, the pedigree is undeniable, but regardless of their “members of” status, SERPENTINE PATH is one of the most scathing sludge acts on the planet.

SERPENTINE PATH:

Tim Bagshaw – guitars
Stephen Flam – guitars
Jay Newman – bass
Darren Verni – drums
Ryan Lipynsky – vocals

DOOM OVER LEIPZIG 2014 fuhr schwerste Geschütze im ausverkauften UT Connewitz auf! | rolled out heaviest artillery in the sold out UT Connewitz!

UT Connewitz, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
Unser Resümee zum DOOM OVER LEIPZIG 2014 lautet ganz eindeutig: Top Bands an einmaligem Veranstaltungsort und tolle Stimmung! Wenn man die Entwicklung des Leipziger Festivals betrachtet, hat es sich zu einem Doom-Event der Superlative gemausert. Dieses Jahr warteten die Veranstalter mit den Genre-Größen ESOTERIC, WINDHAND, INDIAN, CONAN und KONGH auf, die allesamt und dem guten Klang im ehrwürdigen UT Connewitz sei Dank, ein Doom-Brett nach dem anderen ablieferten.

INDIAN, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
Auch den Sludge-Jüngern wurde die volle Eyehategod-Kante mit GRAVES AT SEA und SOURVEIN geboten, in deren Folge nicht wenige Gäste entzückt grinsend herumliefen. Maximal melancholisch gruben sich die akustischen Stücke von 40 WATT SUN in die Herzschmerz- und Seelenleid-geprüften Publikumsherzen. Kein geringerer als Ex-WARNINGs Patrick Walker überzeugte mit seinen zutiefst berührenden Stücken. Auch wenn ich an der einen oder anderen Stelle die verzerrte Gitarre vermisste, gab es das ersehnte "Footprints" von WARNING noch als Sahnehäubchen oben drauf.

SOURVEIN, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
40 WATT SUN, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
THE BODY sorgte für die passende Drone-Note und CIRCLE sowohl für das optische und tonale Überraschungsmoment im Festival-Billing. Man stelle sich den Frontmann mit Addidas-Trainingsanzug, Nieten-Armgürtel und gestochenen Heavy-Vocals vor, dazu die entsprechenden Gitarrenriffs, Hamond-Orgel-Attacken en masse und eine mit homoerotischen Einlagen durchzogene Performance, dass kein Auge trocken blieb. Musikalisch tanzten CIRCLE klar aus der Festival-Reihe, waren aber auch nach dem äußerst unterhaltsamen Auftritt in aller Munde.

CIRCLE, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
OLD MAN GLOOM begeisterte alle Fans von Riffs wie GODFLESH sie seiner Zeit spielten. Nur bei INTER ARMA fiel es mir schwer, Gefallen an der zuweilen anstrengend Schwarzmetall-lastigen Musik zu finden. Das war aber bei der Menge an hochkarätigen Bands an allen drei Tagen zu verschmerzen und ich maximal zerdoomt.

KONGH, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
ESOTERIC, Foto credit: Mike Wiener
Warum das UT Connewitz so ein einmaliger Veranstaltungsort ist? Fragt einfach bei NEUROSIS nach, die während jeder Europatour zwei Konzerte auf der Bühne im ältesten Lichtspielkino Deutschlands geben. Oder Jon von CONAN, der es mir kurz, bündig und auf den Punkt ins Ohr flüsterte: "What an awesome venue!" Recht hat er. Ich freue mich schon auf das nächste Jahr wenn es wieder heißt: DOOM OVER LEIPZIG!

PRIMITIVE MAN: Officially announce European tour! | Kündigen offiziell Europa Tour an!



PRIMITIVE MAN have confirmed that they will be heading to Europe this summer. The blackened sludge trio will hit the road with WAKE in mainland Europe before continuing on to the UK to tour with Opium Lord. The band will also play a handful of dates with fellow Relapse label mates, WEEKEND NACHOS. The band commented: "We are looking forward to spreading our seed far and wide across the pond. See you there."

PRIMITIVE MAN have spent much of this month on the road in the US, including shows at SXSW, in support of their latest album Scorn. Recorded by Dave Otero at Flatline Audio (Cephalic Carnage, Catheter, Cobalt, etc.), Scorn was initially unleashed early last year via a collaboration between Throatruiner and Mordgrimm Records before being reissued by Relapse in August. The album was applauded for being a, "totally malignant sounding record ... that will consume you whole if you're not careful," by Cvlt Nation, "the best worst thing that has ever happened to you," by Metal Hammer, and "one of the most brutal, unsettling and uncompromising albums you will hear all year," by About.com.

Scorn can be streamed in its entirety via PRIMITIVE MAN's bandcamp here: primitivemandoom.bandcamp.com. Copies of the album, on both CD and vinyl can be purchased here www.relapse.com/primitiveman.

Tour mates WAKE hail from Alberta, Canada and will bring their grind and death roadshow to Europe in support of their split 7" with Theories released via Handshake, Inc. and 7Degrees records. A film version of their second album False is also due in the summer. Opium Lord are a heavy doom band hailing from the Midlands in the UK who have just completed work on their debut full length album .

RED FANG: Bereiten sich auf zweiten Teil der Europatour vor | Prepare for second leg of European tour



Following a successful first leg, RED FANG are preparing to head back to Europe for the second leg of their monster European tour. Having conquered multiple European cities in January and February, the Portland quartet returned home to regroup before setting their sights back on this side of the pond in March.

Part two of the tour - on which they will once again be joined by The Shrine and label mates Lord Dying - will kick off in two weeks time in Cologne, Germany. The original venues in both Paris and London sold out in advance and as a consequence were upgraded. The upgraded venue, The Trabendo, in Paris has once again sold out, however tickets are still available for the upgraded venue at the Electric Ballroom in London.

Drummer, John Sherman, commented: "The first leg of our European tour with the Shrine and Lord Dying was completely nuts!  We can't wait to get back and start leg two in a few weeks.  The Paris and London shows have already sold out and been upgraded to bigger venues, so the word must be out - this tour is not to be missed!  See ya soon!!"

Great live footage taken from RED FANG's performance in Nantes, France back in January can be viewed HERE (credits: Metalorgie.com and Special Sauce Productions). Lord Dying performing the track Greed Is Your Horse from their show in Orleans can be seen HERE

Relapse Records signs ATRIARCH (Portland/USA)



Relapse Records announce the signing of Portland, OR blackened Death/Doom quartet ATRIACH. Formed in 2009, ATRIACH (Lenny Smith - Vocals, Brooks Blackhawk - Guitars, Maxamillion - Drums, Joe Wickström - Bass) have released two full lengths including Forever the End in 2011 via Seventh Rule (stream) and Ritual of Passing 2012 via Profound Lore (stream) plus a split with Alaric on 20 Buck Spin.

The band will enter the studio this June with famed producer Billy Anderson (Sleep, Eyehategod, Agalloch) to record their third full-length and Relapse debut which is sure to be their most ambitious and darkest album to date.

The group commented on the upcoming material: "We are constantly evolving as artists and we want to do something new with each release. Having said that it will always be dark and heavy and honestly reflect how we feel. Atriarch is a manifestation of our catharsis." and the signing: "It is an honor to be joining the ranks of Relapse Records. We are truly privileged to be able to stand along side so many great acts as peers."

More details on the new album will be announced shortly!

WINDHAND and INTER ARMA announce European tour dates


WINDHAND and INTER ARMA have today both unveiled European tour dates - many of which will take place with each other. The two bands, both hailing from Richmond, Virginia, will play Roadburn festival alongside fellow Relapse artists True Widow, -(16)-, Indian, ASG, Locrian and Lord Dying.

WINDHAND DRUMMER, Ryan Wolfe, commented: "We're really excited to return to Europe and especially honored to be playing Roadburn and Heavy Days In Doomtown. We met some cool folks on our previous tour and looking forward to catching up with them. Plus playing with Inter Arma for a few weeks will be easy on my ears."

INTER ARMA guitarist, Trey Dalton added: "We've heard nothing but pretty incredible things about how awesome it can be touring in Europe, and needless to say we're very ready to experience that for ourselves. We're most definitely looking forward to playing at Roadburn as we're basically pals with half the bands playing, not to mention that we'll be with some of our best friends in Windhand for the majority of the tour. That being said, I think we're pretty excited about all of the shows. Most of us haven't done a lot of international traveling at all so this is a pretty righteous opportunity."

INTER ARMA will kick off their tour on April 4th in Antwerp, alongside Indian, and will meet up with WINDHAND to play Doom Over Leipzig festival, before the two bands continue on together throughout Europe. The last date the two bands will play together will be April 24, before INTER ARMA play a final show then head home and WINDHAND plough on, playing shows up through Scandinavia.
