Author & Punisher NTG Part 2 Live at the Fillmore

Via Metal Sucks. This reminds me very much of Gub-era Pigface at the start, then it just deteriorates into a hellish plasma of primordial anguish. I don't always dig Author & Punisher - that's not quite the correct way to say it. The man's music simply requires a very specific state of mind for me to get into it. But when I get into it, it's like a bottomless pit - one of the only current artists I would consider to be carrying on and adding to the Industrial genre.

NEW music from The Devil's Blood is here!!! White Storm of Teeth

Yes, The Devil's Blood is broken up, however if you recall the link I posted upon learning this contained an interview with chief songwriter/guitarist Selim Lemouchi where he stated that the album they had been working on, along with a bunch of other demo stuff, would indeed be released. Well, here's the first track from the forthcoming third and final album, III: Tabula Rasa, or Death And The Seven Pillars. This is apparently a "demo" version but it doesn't sound too much like a demo - it's not super polished, but it's polished. Really dig this - reminds me a bit of a cross between Feverdance and Everlasting Saturnalia from the band's previous record The Thousandfold Epicenter. You can pre-order III here.

All this comes via a website I just discovered earlier today, a great metal site called Metal Sucks and their Senior Editor Anso DF. Really great site and they have quite a bit more info on what's coming from the The Devil's Blood here and here.
