Iron Monkey Releases New Song "Off Switch"

UK sludge trio, Iron Monkey, return with their new album, "Spleen & Goad," available on April 5 through Relapse Records. Listen to the album track, "Off Switch," below.

On "Spleen & Goad," the legendary band are as uncompromising as ever, churning out some of the grittiest sounding sludge doom in their twenty-five-plus year history. Dubbed a "doom sludge vanguard" by The Sludgelord, Iron Monkey lives up to their legacy, absolutely pummeling through each of the nine tracks on their new album.

From the two-ton, heavier-than-anything-else riff opening "Concrete Shock”, Iron Monkey shows no signs of easing up; fuzzed out guitars crash against pulse-pounding drums, set against vicious, misanthropic snarls and barks. Elsewhere, tracks like the aptly titled "Rat Flag" kicks the band into high gear with palpable fury and malaise.

Recorded in their native Nottingham, Spleen & Goad was mastered stateside by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege. Pre-orders on LP / CD / Digital can be placed now via Relapse.com. More...

Seven Spires To Release New Album In June

Seven Spires is pleased to announce their new studio album "A Fortress Called Home" to be released June 21st via Frontiers Music. To celebrate the announcement, the band has shared a music video for the first single, "Almosttown." You can check it out below.

Bassist Peter de Reyna on "A Fortress Called Home":
“This album will build you up and tear you down in true Seven Spires fashion. I couldn’t be prouder of the life that’s been created in this, our fourth record. Revel in the anguish, bask in the glory, and we will see you on the other side.”

About the single "Almosttown," frontwoman Adrienne Cowan comments:?
"It's a song about questioning yourself, your choices, the road behind and ahead, and the lonely bed you habitually make and lie in. It’s yearning for the impossible; the elusive, the intangible."

Guitarist Jack Kosto follows up: "We knew pretty early on that this would be a perfect first single, as it’s a really fun and somewhat gentle introduction into the subject matter of this album. It’s got all of the fun stuff: riffs, hooks, musical chops, and a gorgeous castle we were lucky enough to film the music video in!" More...
