CANTO: Yob, Maul, Tanith, and More

This week weirdly flew by. Also, Kamelot sucks.

NYC’s Tanith announced a new album, Voyage, which will be out on April 21 through Metal Blade. The video for the first single, “Snow Tiger”, can be seen here.
Epica launched a new video for “Rivers, (Live At The AFAS LIVE)”, which features Apocalyptica. That recorded footage is from a January performance at the Amsterdam venue. They’re on tour together until basically the end of March.
In all the tour news yesterday, I managed to stupidly miss this one. Yob is hitting the road with Cave In and Pallbearer this coming May and June. Yeah. Can’t miss that one.
Maul, the death metal crew out of North Dakota, have signed on with 20 Buck Spin. Better yet, they have a mini release coming later this year and a ton of live dates between the start of April and the end of June.
Emma Ruth Rundle has some live dates coming up as well, and in advance of that she released a new video for “In My Afterlife”, which you can check out below. That track is from Engine of Hell, which is available through Sargent House.

The Nine Circles Audio Thing: Russian Circles was August 2022’s Album of the Month!

September 4, 2022September 1, 2022ninecirclesadminLeave a comment

Once again it’s Album of the Month time and for August it was a little crazy. We had a pick, or not, and then had another, or not, then we put it to a vote to decide once and for all. In the end Gnosis from Russian Circles ended up getting the most votes, and for good reason. The usual gang of suspects are present for the discussion as well as MC Supreme Buke. Much is made of just how good Russian Circles’ brand of post-instrumetal still is this far along and elsewhere the gang spends a good portion of the runtime gushing over everything else they listened to since they last got together. That and the usual banter back and forth on literally anything and everything.

In other words, just another episode of the Nine Circles Audio Thing.

One more day…

Emma Ruth Rundle, who had just been announced as a performer at FITM 2022, dropped a new track titled “Blooms of Oblivion”. That’s another one taken from Engine of Hell, which is out on November 5th through Sargent House.
Khemmis have announced some West Coast dates next January, supporting Deceiver. Not a thing I can do unfortunately, but tickets go on sale Friday for those that can. As a reminder, that album is out on November 19th through Nuclear Blast.
The primary tour announcement of the day, however, came from Cannibal Corpse, who announced a run of shows in February and March with the likes of Whitechapel, Revocation, and Shadow Of Intent. Tickets go on sale this Friday.
American Teeth have announced that their debut album, We Should Be Having Fun, will be out on October 29th through Fearless Records, along with a new video for the track “Kickflip”. Give that a listen right here.
And we’ll wrap up the day with the new live video from Igorrr for “Camel Dancefloor”. That footage is from the Pol’And’Rock Festival from back in July. Give it a watch below.

CANTO: Anomalie, Deathsomnia, Kowloon Walled City, and More

Days off no longer exist. Apparently. Late-stage capitalism sure is fun.

Anomalie, one my favorite black metal projects, has set November 5th as the release date for Tranceformation. Their fourth studio album will be out through AOP Records, and you can stream the first new track from that effort, “Trance II: Relics”, right here.
Deathsomnia released You Will Never Find Peace last Friday through Isolation Records, and today they gave us a new video for “Void Oblivion”. That track features Gabriel Franco of Unto Others (formerly Idle Hands), which is an added bonus.
And then we’ve got new material from Emma Ruth Rundle, another one of my personal favorites. Engine of Hell is also set for a November 5th release through Sargent House, and a clip for “Return” is available right here.
Oh shit! I almost forgot about this from yesterday. Kowloon Walled City officially have a new album on the horizon. Piecework will be out on October 8th through Gilead Media and Neurot Recordings.
Zombies are fun, so let’s close with the new clip from Ice Nine Kills for “Rainy Day”. That’s taken from their upcoming new album, The Silver Scream 2: Welcome To Horrorwood, which is out on October 15th through Fearless Records.
