The Nine Circles Playlist Vol. 345 (7.20.2024)

July 20, 2024July 20, 2024ChrisLeave a comment

As this post publishes I’ll be in an airplane heading to the beach for some extended time with family and friends. It’s been a long time coming and I’m happy to have the 345th edition of the Nine Circles Playlist available for casual perusal of stuff like decapitated heads courtesy of Seth and gothic wonder thanks to the news of a new Unto Others album coming. You know…perfect beach music.

When not kicking sand in each others’ faces the rest of the 9C crew has you covered with music from Gaerea and Chat Pile, not to mention Uprising, Sacramentum, new music (finally) from the math rock wizards of toe., and a whole lot more. Including…Tim Heidecker?!

Get listening. Stay safe. See you next week.

Album Review: Uprising — III

July 18, 2024May 29, 2025ColinLeave a comment

What a decade we’re living through, huh? Global pandemic, massive war, genocide, now attempted presidential assassinations, and the looming specter of an uncertain climate — one both political and environmental. Tumultuous times deserve an appropriate soundtrack, and one-man black metal act Uprising delivers just that with latest offering III. Taking contemporary black metal and inflecting it with a healthy amount of melody and driven by a stellar session drum performance by Austin Lunn, this is easily the best album from the project yet.

The Nine Circles Playlist Vol. 342 (6.29.2024)

June 29, 2024June 29, 2024ChrisLeave a comment

Gonna keep the 342nd edition of the Nine Circles Playlist brief this week, as I have two other reviews to write, a trip upstate to pack for, and and least one more listen of the new Zappa live set from 1968 before I turn in. So my only contribution this week to the playlist is the new single from Tribulation, who are opening for Opeth on their fall tour, and the latest from the forthcoming Zeal & Ardor album, which I refuse to watch because I’m hyped enough and can’t wait to hear the whole thing.

The rest of the staff has a lot on offer. I’m not going to give the details away due to time constraints, but assume heavy, very heavy, some emo, and uh…yeah. We got Paul Cauthen back on deck because hell yeah, amirite?

Anyway, have a great weekend and let’s keep heads clear and cool.

Get listening. Stay safe. See you next week.

Fun weekend brewery hopping, but damn was I happy to log a good run today.

Wormed. Leading off we have the latest single from those wonderful tech-deathers. “Pleoverse Ominertia” can be heard here, and Omegon is officially less than two weeks away, out on July 5 through Season of Mist.
200 Stab Wounds were already lining up a solid touring schedule for 2024, and they just announced headlining dates in August and September before their run in support of Nails. The full schedule with ticket links can be found here.
Another tour announcement came from Wage War. They’re headlining a run with Erra, Thrown, and Fame on Fire kicking off on September 29. Tickets go on sale this coming Friday here.
German black metal project Uprising revealed the second track from III, titled “While the World is Burning”. That one is out on June 19 through AOP Records.
And to close out, Ixion and their new video for “The Advent”. The atmospheric doom collective just dropped the new EP Restriction, which you can grab here.

Late again, but this time because I was running in the woods.

Might as well start with Season of Mist happenings again. Anciients are back. With a refreshed lineup, a new album is set for an August 30 release, titled Beyond the Reach of the Sun. The lead single, “Melt the Crown”, can be heard here.
Brutal death metal outfit Stabbing have signed a deal with Century Media. To mark the occasion, they unveiled new versions of “Vortex of the Severed Dead” and “Pulled Apart”… which features a couple of notable appearances.
A Wake In Providence announced a new album, I Write To You, My Darling Decay, which arrives on July 26 through Unique Leader. Check out a brand new track, with a lyric video, titled “Mournful Benediction”.
Evilyn, the death metal entity featuring members of Malignancy, Exist, and more, are releasing their debut full-length on August 16, titled Mondestrunken. That will be out through Transcending Obscurity and you can preview some stuff here.
And we’ll close out with some German black metal, because that’s a thing that I like. The third album from Uprising, III, is out on July 19 through AOP Records. Check out “Eternal Mantra” below.
