Mourn Does Nothing New, Releases EP
Netherlands-based outfit Mourn features members from Exivious, (ex-)Cynic, and Textures, mixing sludge, stoner, and groove metal. You can listen to the entire "The Beaten Path" EP below, which was released earlier this year.
In late 2013, Mourn decided to bring nothing new. Since everything already had been done before, and everything else wouldn't be worth making, these brave young men decided to do something entirely different: to acknowledge their total lack of cutting edge. Trying not to copy other bands, this band makes a mixture of metal, rock, and blues like a lot of other bands before them. Bands you of course have heard of, going from Pantera and Down to Black Sabbath and Black Label Society.
Founding member Robin Zielhorst (ex-Cynic, Ex-Blue Man Group, Exivious), found like minded forces in Thomas Frankhuijzen (March), Kas Kluitman and Pieter Verpaalen (ex-Texures) to walk this beaten path of metal. The result is a grooving metal machine that does not stop until you're beating your head to the sound of the riffs. You could describe its genre as HeavyStonerBluesGrooveRockSludgeMetal. More...
Devoted To Your Monument Posts Studio Video
Austrian djent / deathcore outfit Devoted To Your Monument is currently in the process of laying down tracks for a new EP. Check out the latest teaser trailer from the studio below, and stay tuned for more details.
Column
Sunday Old School: Crash
As we approach the end of another year, it would seem that Sunday Old School's attempt to expose more metal veterans from across the world has been a success. From Aria in Russia to Moonspell in Portugal, from Channel Zero in Belgium to Mezarkabul in Turkey, we've seen some of the best the world has given the metal genre and heard some of the best music on offer. This week, we'll be continuing this trend by heading to Asia for the first and only time since 2011's column on Japan's, Loudness, to check out a contribution to thrash metal from South Korea, one which had the suitably high impact moniker of Crash.
The band was formed in 1991 by vocalist/bassist, Ahn Heung-Chan, guitar player, Yoon Doo-Byung and drummer, Jung Yong-Wook, in the country's capital city of Seoul and became one of the first groups in the nation to encourage stage diving and hardcore dancing. Their ferocious music and growing, rabid following soon caught the attention of Metal Force Records, a subsidiary of the SK Group, a giant corporation in Korea. More...

States Relapse: "A perverted homage to the glory days of proto-grind and raw, depraved death metal, Cretin perfected the lo-fi stylings of Repulsion, Autopsy and early Napalm Death on sophomore full-length and second Relapse Records release, "Stranger".
You can now stream the entire album below (courtesy of No Clean Singing) and pre-order "Stranger" at Relapse.
