Sorxe Signs With Prosthetic Records
Phoenix, AZ-based experimental sludge/post metal band Sorxe has announced the band's signing to Prosthetic Records. The band will release its second full-length album "Matter & Void" on November 24th.
"Matter & Void" was recorded, mixed and co-produced by Matt Bayles (Russian Circles, Botch, Isis). The album will be available via CD, limited edition violet and black swirl LP and all digital outlets. Pre-orders are available now at this location.
The four-piece relies heavily on improvisation, pulling ideas from an eclectic well of inspiration ranging from Neurosis, Swans, Melvins and Pink Floyd. SORXE consists of guitarist/vocalist Tanner Crace, drummer Shane Ocell, and two bassists - Christopher Coons and Jonathan Portnoy, who tread new psychedelic ground into the unknown.
Crace comments on the signing: "Sorxe is humbled and honored to join the Prosthetic family! We have much music to share with everyone and we are truly excited to have this platform and support of the label to be able to extend our reach. We are greatly looking forward to the 'Matter & Void' album release, touring, and bringing the music to a wider audience of people all over the world. Thank you!"
The first single "Hypnotizer," can be streamed via Metal Injection either at this location, or just below in the player provided.
Crace says about the track: "Lyrically there's a lot of intertwining themes about the cold calculating and unforgiving nature of existence. The song 'Hypnotizer' deals with the allure and seduction of new technologies and how it's all sold to all of us to make life easier, but the double edge sword of the matter is we are becoming even more distant and distracted. Life is getting more chaotic and moving faster than we can keep up. More...

Sorxe To Play Midnite Communion II
This Fall, an annual celebration of arts, crafts, and musicianship within the realm of darkness
befalls upon Los Angeles. Midnite Communion II will play host to nine artists, three musical
performances, and a number of crafters, toolers, and builders all with an artisan approach. The following press release was issued about the coming event:
"Specifically curated by the Midnite Collective, this year's theme is entitled 'Out of the Woods,'
celebrating the emergence and accomplishments within the first year of renewed vision operating
under the guise of Midnite.
"By unifying these creative entities with the endarkened community of greater Los Angeles, the purpose is not only to share these outlets with our brothers and sisters within the shadows but to extend gracious appreciation for the incredible support through 2014.
"This year's creative harvest has brought a spectacle of pieces contributed by Lucas Ruggieri, Krist Mort, Farron Loathing, Raoul Mazzero, and Joie 'Jaxa' de Vivre. An extended exhibit showcasing and reflecting a year of Midnite Ceremonies includes Mike Lawrence, Sebastian Mazuera, Shaun Beaudry, and Jean Saiz. Musical accompaniment will be provided by Virginia’s worst, Cough, who will be supported by Salt Lake City’s sonically destructive INVDRS and Phoenix progressive metal act Sorxe.
"Taking place on Saturday, November 15th within the confines of The Complex in Glendale, California, this Communion will have two periods of worship and tribute. Beginning at 7pm, the art exhibit and craft fair will have an opening reception free to the public. At 9pm, the venue will be emptied and re-entry will be granted with tribute for the musical acts while the art exhibition and craft fair will still be available for viewing and perusing." More...
