Work? Done. Run? Done. Canto? In progress. Swim? Up next. Beer? Up next, next.

• Hell yeah we’re going to start with Manic Abraxas. The Maine-based doom punk trio are releasing their fourth album, Skinformation, on August 2. Checking out the leading single, “Manic Abraxas”, right now on Bandcamp.
• Next up, we have the latest from Crypt Sermon. Their new single, “Thunder (Perfect Mind)”, is streaming now. I shouldn’t have to remind you, but The Stygian Rose is out a week from Friday through Dark Descent Records.
• Teeth revealed details surrounding their next album. The Will of Hate is slated for an August 30 release through Translation Loss Records, and it’s sure to be a monster. “Prison” is streaming over at Decibel if you want an early preview.
• Category 7, a new project featuring the likes of a whole lot of prominent names, released a video for the new single “Exhausted”. Their self-titled debut album is out on July 26 through Metal Blade.
• Sanguisugabogg videos are usually pretty messed up, and I expect the clip for the new single “Permanently F*cked” to be no different. So let’s end on that note. They’re about to kick off a tour in Europe, if you happen to be over there.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
