Deafheaven is back! Been curious on what direction the band would go after the response to “S U N B A T H E R”. It was after all one of the most highly rated albums across the public media. It’s actually number one on albumoftheyear.org from adding up a ton of top album of the year lists from major media sites.
But it seems they are hitting us hard with this new single. Enjoy guys!
You can preorder the album on bandcamp:

So, here’s the tl;dr: SB will release their new album Ankaa through their label Art as Catharsis in November 2015 if they meet their goal of getting $3,500 in one month.

The avant-garde group Thinking Plague needs your help to fund their seventh full-length album.

Feel free to contribute any amount!… Read more
We know you love post-metal, so if I were to say that this is the greatest piece of this genre of music to come out this year, would you believe me? Probably not because you all probably know of that band from where you’re from that’s so much greater than any other, but Dumbsaint is a band I actually have heard about.
Panorama, in ten pieces is a soundtrack to a story told in a movie, which was also entirely made by the band. Globally, I’d say it’s post-metal, but there are post-rock moments too. The songs clearly reflect the … Read more
After their last year’s debut EP “Prologue”, Toronto-based instrumental prog once-trio now-quintet Earth’s Yellow Sun has released The Infernal Machine, a 5-part, 23 minute long prog rock song of epic proportions.
