News: HISSING: Noisey Streams Southern Lord-Bound EP By Seattle Death Metal Trio; New Shows With Sunn O))), Big | Brave Loom
Noisey is now streaming the self-titled 7" EP by Seattle-based death metal trio, HISSING, as the record is prepared for release by Southern Lord.
Dispatching a gruesome concoction of death metal with pungent blackened atmosphere and scathing sludge-dredging attributes, HISSING is comprised of bassist/vocalist Zach Wise, guitarist Joe O'Malley, and drummer Sam Pickel. The trio's output merges the gnarled death tones of Incantation, Autopsy, and Winter, with more dissonant/angular elements of Portal, Blut Aus Nord, and others. Theself-titled 7" from the band bears the new hymns "Cairn" and "Husk," the EP tracked by Rusty Graeff (Bone Sickness) and mixed and produced by the band, with mastering handled by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege, and its cover art by Stefan Thanneur (Chaos Echœs). Hissing is thematically centered around the effects of the metropolitan environment on the human psyche and explores themes of agoraphobia, urban decay, and incarceration.
Offers Noisey alongside their early streaming of Hissing, "...there's a lot more going on here than mere Incantation aping. Most notable is their partiality for disgusting sludgy dirges and atonal, textured quality of the guitar work, which is rendered unexpectedly clean on their latest release..."
Listen at THIS LOCATION.
Southern Lord will issue the Hissing 7" on June 10th; place orders HERE.
HISSING will join labelmates Big|Brave and Sunn O))) on their upcoming run of tour dates through the Midwestern states in early June, having also provided support for the West Coast leg of the same tour earlier this month.
