Triptykon have let out a number of details regarding their new album “Melana Chasmata“, which will receive an April 15th North American release through Century Media Records/Prowling Death Records Ltd..
The albums title roughly translates to “black, deep depressions/valleys” with the effort itself being produced by frontman/guitarist Tom Gabriel Warrior and guitarist V. Santura.
The track listing for the offering can be found below: 01 – “Tree Of Suffocating Souls“ 02 – “Boleskine House“ 03 – “Altar Of Deceit“ 04 – “Breathing“ 05 – “Aurorae“ 06 – “Demon Pact“ 07 – “In The Sleep Of Death“ 08 – “Black Snow“ 09 – “Waiting“
The group have also made mention that a new EP or mini-album will be released late 2014/early 2015 as well. “Melana Chasmata” itself will be released in a variety of formats, including a 32 page mediabook featuring lyrics and a fold out poster; as well as a limited edition special box set featuring a pendant, poster, postcards, tote bag and a hat and more. A collector’s gatefold 7″ for the album tracks “Breathing” and “Boleskine House” will arrive prior to the album, hitting stores on March 17th. It will be limited to a pressing of 1000, with 200 to be made available on red vinyl. A digital version will also be released.
On the art front, the group have once again used the artwork of HR Giger for the album, including his “Mordor VII” on the cover (see below) and his “Landschaft XVI” as gatefold artwork.
Live performances in support of the outing are being mapped out, including appearances at the ‘Roadburn Festival‘, ‘Rock Hard Festival‘ and pending a visa, the ‘Maryland Death Fest‘.
Little Rock, AR's Pallbearer are currently at Type Foundry Studio in Portland, OR with legendary producer/engineer Billy Anderson (Neurosis, Melvins, Sleep, Swans) laying down the tracks that will become their follow up to 2012's monumental release, Sorrow & Extinction. This yet-to-be-titled full-length is slated for release later this year via Profound Lore Records on CD, LP and Digital formats, and is one of the most anticipated albums of 2014.
To say that Pallbearer has had a whirlwind few years would be a drastic understatement - the band released a three-song demo back in 2010 and followed it up with their debut full-length, Sorrow and Extinction, to massive critical acclaim in 2012. The album received the Best New Music nod from Pitchfork, and was named one of the best metal albums of the year by SPIN, NPR, Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, Stereogum, and countless other outlets. Pallbearer toured the globe in support, and hit festivals such as Fun Fun Fun, SXSW, Roadburn, Hellfest and more. Now, the band is recording six epic new tracks full of colossal amplifier worship heaviness with beautifully crushing harmonies - the trademark sound that Pallbearer has become known for.
Profound Lore Records is planning for the label's introductory release from Chicago's anti-life quartet, LORD MANTIS, today officially dispatching the full details on the band's rancid new audio virulence, Death Mask.
The four depraved individuals who form the LORD MANTIS cult -- bassist/vocalist Charlie Fell, guitarist/vocalist Andrew Markuszewski, drummer Bill Bumgardner and newly inducted guitarist/vocalist Ken Sorceron -- have culminated their contempt for humankind and some of the most horrific personal experiences over recent years into an exceptionally malevolent entity on Death Mask. Unleashing something far darker even than their already iniquitous prior LP's -- 2009's Seventh Rule debut, Spawning The Nephilim, and 2012's Candlelight-released Pervertor -- the visceral punishment one will endure on the seven works of Death Mask is not for the weak. Dredging forth their most disturbing works yet, born forth from some of the darkest recesses of the human psyche, LORD MANTIS recorded the fifty-minute album with Sanford Parker (Twilight, Voivod, Eyehategod, Yob) at Chicago-based Electrical Audio and Soma Studios, who is also responsible for engineering both prior albums. Indian's guitarist/vocalist Dylan O'Toole also contributed additional vocals on two of the tracks on Death Mask, adding yet another dose of nihilism to the mix.
The cover art for Death Mask, from the warped visualization of tattooist/musician Jef Whitehead (Leviathan, Twilight), has been released along with the full track listing and more ahead of its street date of April 29th, 2014.
Following the Springtime release of Death Mask, LORD MANTIS will tour out to the East Coast this Summer, as the henchmen have now been confirmed to raid the third annual New York City-based underground fest, Martyrdoom. Running from June 27th through July 1st at Brooklyn's Saint Vitus Bar, LORD MANTIS is now locked to perform the final night of brutality alongside Mournful Congregation, Lycus, Vilkacis and Evoken that evening alone. A full tour routing based around the Martyrdoom set will be announced in the coming weeks, amidst additional live events.
Death Mask Track Listing:
1. Body Choke 2. Death Mask 3. Possession Prayer 4. You Will Gag For The Fix 5. Negative Birth 6. Coil 7. Three Crosses
