The Hardest Thing About Being God Is That No One Believes Me, the mammoth new full-length from New Zealand-based progressive death metal collective BLINDFOLDED AND LED TO THE WOODS, is out TODAY on Prosthetic Records!

What does obsession do to your mind? When you fixate on one particular person, place, or event, it clouds your thoughts, pollutes your feelings, and takes over your very being. You lose yourself and succumb to your basest instincts to pursue this obsession at all costs. BLINDFOLDED AND LED TO THE WOODS channels the extremes of a psychotic break into an ambitious sonic tableau of intricately airtight metal, eerie production, and insidiously memorable screams. Set to this pummeling soundtrack, the quintet implants an immersive story into the core of their fifth full-length offering, The Hardest Thing About Being God Is That No One Believes Me.

Irish math/noise rock unit GOD ALONE have unleashed their new full-length, The Beep Test today via Prosthetic Records.

The band dropped their latest bruiser, “Tony Gawk” recently. During “Tony Gawk,” cymbals quiver until a frenetically picked guitar lick crawls on top of the rumbling rhythm. Feelings of seasickness overflow from guitarist/vocalist Jake O’Driscoll’s throat-shredding refrain. 

“It’s super-fast, and it definitely nods to our mathcore influences,” says drummer Jake O’Hanlon. “We wanted to make an extremely heavy song. Lyrically, it’s about being really sick. One time when we played a gig in Nottingham, I was very sick because I drank loads. I was so sick I thought I was possessed when I was falling asleep. I was rolling around, and I decided to make up a story about it.

Fleshwork Full-Length To See Release On November 7th Via Prosthetic Records

“Nomad” is the latest single from mathcore trio PUPIL SLICER. The ferocious new track comes by way of the band’s Fleshwork full-length, set for release on November 7th through Prosthetic Records.

Describing Fleshwork as “conceptual” but specifically not a concept album, PUPIL SLICER leans into creating an all-encompassing industrial hellscape; a perfect setting to explore the societal machinations that dehumanize and devalue the poor, disabled, queer, and people of color for political and financial gain. Drawing on personal experience, vocalist and guitarist Kate Davies details the disconnect and discomfort of navigating this life, and the substantial human, day-to-day cost of doing so.

Offers vocalist/guitarist Kate Davies on the band’s latest single, “‘Nomad’ is about living in a post truth society where people are living in entire echo chambers that allow them to get caught up in massive conspiracies and how much you can dehumanize other people. It’s about  naivety of masses to how malevolent and self-interested those in charge are and how to survive in this world that can just lie to justify actions that lead to the deaths of so many people; the idea of no one being safe besides those that make the rules in our society and that the internet is a wasteland of primarily disinformation and bad faith interactions.”
