Brothers of The Sonic Cloth is streaming “La Mano Poderosa” off of their album of the same name, out February 17, 2015 via Neurot Recordings, here.

Sample a taste of the heavy ahead of the record’s release date with a five-minute video teaser which finds Tad Doyle presenting an in-depth look at the impetus in creating Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth, the tracking process and the weighty themes that bind the record. Watch the video teaser HERE. And check out opening hymn, “Lava,” still streaming HERE.

Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth was captured at Robert Lang Studios and Doyle’s own Witch Ape Studio in Seattle, Washington and mixed by Billy Anderson (Sleep, High On Fire, Melvins et al). Thrusting forth five hauntingly heavy tracks, with two bonus hymns included on the CD edition the offering serves as Doyle’s first recorded release in nearly fifteen years. BROTHERS OF THE SONIC CLOTH’s audio manifestations are welcomingly unfamiliar, splicing thick, jagged riffs through chilling post-punk drumming and hulking compositions that blow soulfully hot and desolately cold, sometimes within the confines of one track. Their long-form pieces present the kind of mature ideas and expansive progressions that outpace the listener’s short-term memory leading them off the proverbial map; familiar landmarks like sludge, post-metal, rock all but disappeared over the horizon. Authentic and authoritative, Brothers Of The Sonic Cloth is as much a persistent thudding body punch of sonic destructive force as it is a thoughtful statement of awareness and the inescapable raw condition of life.

They have booked an upcoming show:

Apr 18: The Columbia City Theater – Seattle, WA
