Nux Vomica Streaming New Song "Sanity Is For The Passive"

Portland's Nux Vomica is now streaming the opening track to the band's self-titled Relapse debut album, due out April 1st.

Check out "Sanity Is For The Passive" below, courtesy of Noisey.Vice.com. The following press release was also issued about the band:

"Following their previously released LPs -- 2007's A Civilized World and 2009's Asleep in Ashes -- among a plethora of splits and a 7" release, Nux Vomica's first recording for the mighty Relapse and first full-length from the band in over five years was recorded throughout 2011-2012 at Haywire Studios.

"Blending the suffocating atmospherics of the doom/sludge with the raw ferocity of black metal, punk and d-beat, Nux Vomica constructs an organic heaviness comparably hanging somewhere in the balance between Neurosis and His Hero Is Gone.

"Their self-titled album delivers more than forty minutes of the band's torrid style through three massive works, creating an emotional odyssey into the depths of human darkness; a flawless combination of epic song structures with crushing melodies and colossal riffs with powerful dynamics."

Stated the band collectively on the upcoming release: "We are proud to release our new LP, Nux Vomica, on Relapse Records! It's been a long time in the making, and is our third full length LP after a decade of being a band. We think it represents the pinnacle of our musical achievements so far. In other words... we think this is our best shit yet and we are fucking stoked!"
