Year of The Knife have announced their new album, No Love Lost, due out October 27th, 2023 from Pure Noise Records. The album finds Year of The Knife at their most sonically honed with nine lean and vicious songs that clock in at a blistering 20 minutes. Recorded by Kurt Ballou (Nails, The Armed, Code Orange), No Love Lost sounds truly massive, a crushing amalgam of hardcore and death metal influences that demands your attention and stays with you long after its concise runtime. To mark the album’s announcement, Year of The Knife have shared two new singles, the 86-second “Wish” and 48-second “Last Laugh,” highlighting both the economy of songwriting and the level aggression found on No Love Lost. Both tracks also include guest vocals from some of heavy music’s greatest, with the former featuring Devin Swank of Sanguisugabogg and the latter featuring Dylan Walker of Full of Hell. Stream the new singles now and pre-order the new album. Profits from the album’s sales will be going directly to the members’ ongoing recovery efforts.
