ABYSMAL DAWN unleash a virulent strain of modern death metal on the Los Angeles-based quartet’s Relapse Records debut Programmed to Consume. The band’s metallic assault thunders with all the hallmarks of death metal’s finest traits; power, speed, precision, and intensity. As tracks such as “Grotesque Modern Art”, “Walk the Path of Fire”, and the title track prove, ABYSMAL DAWN are an explosive new force in American death metal.

Programmed To Consume hits store shelves today!! Pick up a copy at your favorite music retailer or order now at Relapse.com.

Rotting Paradise, the second full-length from COLDWORKER, sees the quintet (led by founding NASUM player Anders Jakobson) evolving into a finely tuned Swedish death metal machine. Rotting Paradise overwhelms with twelve measured beatings, balancing the brutality of modern death metal, ferocious vocal bellows, and distinctly European flourishes of metallic grandeur. Without question, Rotting Paradise is the quintessential Swedish death metal album for a new century of extremity.

Pick up your copy of Rotting Paradise in stores now!! Or order directly from Relapse at this location.

COALESCE destroyed the mold of formulaic metallic-hardcore in the mid ‘90s. Their existence was controversial and polarizing, and their musical legacy changed the genre forever. On their landmark record (and swan-song at the time), 1998’s 0:12: Revolution in Just Listening, the band channeled the turbulence of their break-up into their most urgent, honest, and desperate songs to date. Their unbelievably dense, off-kilter compositions showed a more pronounced rock edge, and the band turned in the studio performance of their short lifetime. Fast-forward to 2008; on the eve of the second coming of COALESCE 012:2 has been repackaged and remastered for the next generation of heavy music connoisseurs. In the canon of heavy music, certainly in the world of modern hardcore, there are few records as crucial as 012:2.

012:2 is available everywhere today!! Complete your COALESCE collection or use this as important introduction to one of the greatest hardcore bands ever. Order now!
