Epistasis Streaming New EP
In less than a week, Crucial Blast will release the label's first recordings from NYC metal experimentalists Epistasis with the "Light Through Dead Glass" mini-album, and today Noisey.Vice.com lets the whole thing loose early. Give the full EP a listen below. The following press release was also issued:
"Set for release on April 1st, the collective's latest sonic explorations are documented through six new movements on the new EP, Epistasis' own specialized, unclassifiable mangling of influences swirling into a chaotic, devastating and yet beautiful entity.
"The haunting and crushing range of vocals pouring forth from Amy Mills' (Couch Slut) matched with her mournful trumpet contributions somehow weaves seamlessly into the barrage of percussion unloaded by drummer Alex Cohen (Pyrrhon, Malignancy) while guitarist Kevin Wunderlich (Couch Slut, Voice Coils) and bassist Doug Berns lay down an equally vast culmination of amplification and riff tactics. Mills recently also played trumpet on new albums from Castevet and Psalm Zero. The EP was recorded under the watch of Martin Bisi (Sonic Youth, Swans, Unsane).
"Epistasis will showcase their latest works at a hometown gala, just days after the official release of Light Through Dead Glass. On Sunday, April 6th, Kayo Dot, White Suns, and Pyrrhon will share the stage at the Acheron in Brooklyn with EPISTASIS at the band's official release show for the record."

Epistasis To Release "Light Through Dead Glass"
Maryland-based extreme/experimental conduit, Crucial Blast, is proud to announce the upcoming release of "Light Through Dead Glass," the sophomore release from New York City-based Epistasis. The following press release was issued about the band:
"Epistasis ntegrates the talents of guitarist Kevin Wunderlich, bassist Doug Berns, drummer Alex Cohen (also of avant-death metallers, Pyrrhon, and tech-death legends, Malignancy), and is fronted by Amy Mills on vocals and trumpet. Mills has also contributed trumpet parts on new albums from Castevet and Psalm Zero. The quartet, while impossible to define or describe in few words, culminates a wide range of eclectic influences into a bizarre, otherworldly soundtrack of unrestrained creativity with an edge of pure lunacy.
"Much like labelmates Ehnahre, Epistasis crafts an unconventional, complex sound that suggests just as much kinship with the darker and more malevolent realms of prog rock (Univers Zero, Present, Red-era King Crimson) as it does with the more outré fringes of black metal, delivering a kind of nightmarish dissonance shot through with scenes of shocking surrealistic violence and flashes of phantasmal beauty.
