The Grind
Take a look at this soon-to-be iconic album cover for Converge’s next opus Axe to Fall – the familiar female theme now meshed with a disturbing Mexican-skull-face design to gruesome effect. Some stunning stuff.
That’s not all that’s rocking our world right now though, as the first single from the band’s latest LP has just been announced and is up for streaming over at the group’s Myspace. “Dark Horse” can only be described as a pummeling maelstrom, some unrelenting punishment for our musical sins, and a fiersome announcement that Converge, with Kurt Ballou’s signature wailing guitar sounds, Ben Koller’s destructive blast-beats, and Jacob Bannon’s all too familiar screech, buried here under a wall of thrashing sonics. Definitely check this one out – eagerly awaiting the full album. Tracklist below:
- “Dark Horse”
- “Reap What You Sow”
- “Axe to Fall”
- “Effigy”
- “Worms Will Feed”
- “Wishing Well”
- “Damages”
- “Losing Battle”
