Audio: The Black Dahlia Murder – Abysmal Full Album Stream


black dahlia murder abysmal

Modern death metal masters The Black Dahlia Murder are streaming their new album Abysmal, out this Friday, in full from Metal Blade Records’ website. You can hear the album at this link:

 

Front man Trevor Strnad commented on Abysmal:

“Once the record started to come together we knew it was going to be something special,” states vocalist Trevor Strnad. “It’s more urgent, it has more dynamics, it’s a more emotive record, and it has a more raw, angry sound to it. It’s still million mile-per-hour death metal, but when you invest so much thought and emotion into what you’re creating you end up with a record that does stand out, and we can hold our heads up high and say yeah, this is our best work.”

BTBAM spin

With less than a week to go, Between The Buried And Me are streaming their entire new album, Come Ecliptic (Metal Blade). Listen to the full album stream at SPIN Magazine at this link:

You can also see the music video for the title track of the album at the BTBAM portal on Metal Blade’s website:

Commenting about the album, the band released a statement:

Once again, the band has returned with an ambitious concept album. This time, the story follows the wanderings of an unidentified man, stuck in a coma, as he journeys through his past lives. Each song is its own episode in a modern day, sort of The Twilight Zone-esque fashion. The unidentified man enters each world and is offered a choice: stay, or move on to the next in search of something better, something more “perfect.”

Author And Punisher album cover 2015

Author & Punisher the avant-garde audio and visual powerhouse for artist Tristan Shone, is on the cusp of releasing their new album next week. Melk En Honing from Phil Anselmo’s Housecore label is streaming in full at this link:

 

There is also a new video for the song ‘Shame’, as seen at this link or below:

Shone commented on the release of Melk En Honing:

Melk En Honing is a deeply personal album, in the same way that Drone Machines was, where each song has really etched itself into my being. Listening, each track pulls at some internal sentiment and it’s powerful. I think it’s probably the closest representation of live Author & Punisher that you will hear and I hope it’s enjoyed across genres.”

Phil Anselmo also commented on the album he produced at his home studio, Nodferatu’s Lair

Tristan Shone is the epitome of what Housecore Records stands for, and looks for in musical expression: absolute originality and innovation. It is our complete pleasure to facilitate such a fantastic, artistic mind and expression of bombastic works. There is no pigeonholing this man’s art.”

Album Stream: Dekades – Dekades


dekades

Los Angeles rock outfit Dekades is streaming their guitar heavy, fuzzy and hypnotic self-titled EP below. The band continues to make name for themselves in the local music scene playing raw and intense shows all over southern California and opening for notable acts like The Mowgli’s, Dead Sara, Beta Machine and Big Black Delta. The veteran rhythm section of Chris Cano on drums and James Carter on bass rely more upon groove than rote aggression, mimicking the dark undercurrents of a pulsating human heart. Guitarist Josh Benson provides a rich wall of sound upon which multi-instrumentalist Matt Shores applies the chromatic textures. All this beautiful white noise is summoned behind vocalist/guitarist Arden Fisher, a tour de force in her own right.
