0Napalm Death Announces New Album
After a busy year of touring and studio sessions, Napalm Death has announced they will be releasing a new album in early 2015. Vocalist Mark “Barney” Greenway commented:
“When we say that we’ve been working on the album recording for nearly a year, people might be thinking that this all sounds a bit too extravagant for Grindcore-type behaviour. The full story is though that we’ve been recording it in segments to try and achieve varying types of sonic assault. There is a belief in certain quarters that you can only do so much with our particularly noisy strain of music. We think otherwise, so as well as a few stylistic quirks on the album (that are sometimes happy accidents), generally it’s rawer, perhaps a little looser and of course always dense, nasty and, hopefully, invigorating too. Certainly not more polished – yuk!”
Some song titles they’re throwing around are “Copulating Snakes”, “Dear Slum Landlord” (aired at Roadburn 2014), “What is Past Is Prologue”, and “Stunt Your Growth”. This will be the band’s 15th studio album, following up their 2012 release Utilitarian. In the meantime, the band continues to tour, including appearances at Knotfest, a European tour and cruising through Japan. Check out the dates below and there will be more announced soon!
