CANTO: Soulfly, Imperial Triumphant, Dismember, and More

The world makes me sad sometimes. But, five more work days until I’m in Wyoming.

  • Soulfly shared a new music video today, and that feels like just as good of a place to start as any. Check out the clip for “Filth Upon Filth” here. That offering is taken from Totem, which is out on August 5th through Nuclear Blast.
  • More from Nuclear Blast, and this is super dope. Dismember have once again joined their ranks, which is a very big deal. To mark the occasion, a fully remastered version of Like An Everflowing Stream has been made available across the streaming platforms. And I cannot wait to find out what comes next.
  • Detroit death thrashers Plague Years dropped a surprise EP today through MNRK Heavy, titled All Will Suffer. Check out the video for “Suffer” at Metal Injection, and find all ordering options for that album here.
  • Is closing with the latest from Imperial Triumphant the obvious thing to do? Yes. And I’m going to do it anyway. Below is the video for “Tower of Glory, City of Shame”. The arrival of Spirit of Ecstasy is coming up quick… and if you needed a reminder that date is July 22nd through Century Media.

According to Bastard Grave’s press release, prior to What Lies Beyond, the band only had one demo to their name, which makes the debut effort all the more impressive. Sitting down to spin this album and knowing that this was the band’s first full-length, I expected a more scattered affair. Pleasantly surprised to find out how wrong I was; What Lies Beyond features an array of songs uniting under the clarity of one solid vision. Continue reading →
