News: LISTEN TO ANOTHER NEW HELMS ALEE SONG OFF OF THEIR ALBUM ‘STILLICIDE’
Helms Alee, the Washington state power trio featuring Ben Verellen (guitar, vocals), Dana James (bass, vocals), and Hozoji Margullis (drums, vocals) have premiered another single off of their forthcoming album Stillicide (September 2, Sargent House) - listen to the pulverizing track “Galloping Mind Fuk” today on Metal Injection (or directly on Soundcloud).
On their fourth album, Stillicide, Helms Alee continue their sonic tradition of blending heavy riffs, dark guitar pop, and math rock into songs that are at turns brutal, anthemic, and cerebrally engaging. Bolstered by the recording and production expertise of Kurt Ballou at God City Studios, Stillicide is not only the group’s strongest collection of songs, it is arguably their best sounding release to date. The heavier moments are that much more oppressive; their melodic angles are that much more beguiling, and the juxtaposition between Ben Verellen’s patriarchal roar and the siren song vocals of Dana James and Hozoji Margullis is that much more exhilarating.
See Helms Alee on a two-and-a-half-month long run of North American touring; they are on the road now through September 21st with Melvins and then September 23rd through October 9th with label mates Russian Circles. Three west coast shows will follow that will take Helms Alee home, and then they’ll close out the year in November with two shows in Portland and Seattle. Check out Helms Alee’s complete touring schedule below.
Stillicide is available for pre-order directly through HelloMerch and iTunes. Watch a teaser for the album on YouTube and look for a full album stream coming soon.
