Drafting this super early because I’m only going to get busier after work. Yay!

• End are dropping a new album on October 27 through Closed Casket Activities titled The Sin of Human Frailty. Check out the video for the first material from that collection, “Gaping Wounds of Earth”, here.
• Personally, I’m only doing this for the new Wolves in the Throne Room. Give “Twin Mouthed Spring” a listen here. Needless to say, it’s incredible. My favorite Cascadian black metallers are dropping an EP on September 29 through Relapse (and Century Media) titled Crypt of Ancestral Knowledge.
• A couple from Metal Blade today! Here’s the latest from Harm’s Way, titled “Devour”. Common Suffering is also out on September 29. By the way, the Harm’s War Running Man? Still funny.
• Poison Ruïn announced a U.S. tour this coming September into October, which falls around their performance at Gonerfest on September 30 in Memphis.
• Primordial are releasing their tenth full-length album on… September 29 through Metal Blade. It’ll be titled How It Ends, and below you can find the video for the new single “Victory Has 1000 Fathers, Defeat Is An Orphan”. My honest reaction? …Whatever.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
