GADGET Announces First New Album in Ten Years; Premieres Two New Tracks Via Noisey
On behalf of Swedish grindcore stalwarts GADGET, Relapse Records is excited to announce that The Great Destroyer, the band's first full-length in a decade, will see worldwide release this March 4th, 2016.
With
the announcement, Noisey has premiered two new tracks from the album;
stream "Violent Hours (For A Veiled Awakening)" and the title track "The
Great Destroyer" now at http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010n8JNuBpXIzoq1biqaulkcESz_uFBzgLojOAQj9ZJIN30RgM0vcuTF_4-Ri2_1z2rkvPnis-iOhkUpWWhvtg57f7dktj2iuwBE3dUhzl0LlfP3zux7SYqkt7F1Aa2dEiMdRDeIgSCQAZ7c9ms4I_-ob-_FE4BCLKM-OqvSzebOrDMTy8RUXFih5SRhd_HYNT3hnuSEd_4B7YkYsLRXiAMQ==&c=r9nco7HzH2-vEjFSOmqrNo3xOKnaDZuEl28fr9OqQVjPKa28v-8Uqw==&ch=6VHcj_UxwcNDUlCCmNd4vCAaAnbrJRcV_lkwmUZCru-X75M77EBwAw==" rel="nofollow - .
Though the band has largely flown under the radar in the general metal consciousness, Gavle, Sweden's GADGET has
roots that trace back to 1997. The band has always included influences
from every other extreme genre that they've been fond of, like doom,
sludge, hardcore punk, death metal, black metal and more, never letting
genre boundaries stand in the way of their path of destruction. At the
time of the band's formation, GADGET existed as the grinding alter-ego of a metalcore band whose members, including founder William
Blackmon, simply switched instruments. Rikard Olsson and William teamed
up in the winter of 1999/2000, and wrote the first GADGET demo
as a duo. The band then joined forces with Emil Englund to record a
second demo, which was strong enough to grab the attention of Relapse
Records, who signed the band for the release of their debut full-length Remote (2004), now featuring Fredrik Nygren. Remote was extensively well-received, as was its 2006 follow-up The Funeral March.
After touring Europe twice and performing at dozens of festivals
worldwide, including at Maryland Deathfest and Auditory Assault in the
US, GADGET has proven itself to be a relentless grindcore force live as well as on record.
A blistering high-speed assault of relentless grind, GADGET's new album The Great Destroyer is
a cohesive exercise in extremity that blends hints of doom, sludge and
death metal with unadulterated, old-school grindcore. The result is an
album that is as memorable and infectious as it is pummeling and
explosive. With The Great Destroyer, GADGET has released their most accomplished material to date!
The Great Destroyer will see release on CD, LP and Digital formats. Physical preorders are available now via Relapse http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010n8JNuBpXIzoq1biqaulkcESz_uFBzgLojOAQj9ZJIN30RgM0vcuTF_4-Ri2_1z2zLpa8F-pZUUa25gmmq3fq0UTl4FJESbU61aQYkEaaJiuNFeA7LOKGoy3eawlNWQglK7QlLqtlg09VOA26_c4SLGOpGz2Gc3eKwEpzDUmreg=&c=r9nco7HzH2-vEjFSOmqrNo3xOKnaDZuEl28fr9OqQVjPKa28v-8Uqw==&ch=6VHcj_UxwcNDUlCCmNd4vCAaAnbrJRcV_lkwmUZCru-X75M77EBwAw==" rel="nofollow - ; digital pre-orders can be found at GADGET's Bandcamp page http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=0010n8JNuBpXIzoq1biqaulkcESz_uFBzgLojOAQj9ZJIN30RgM0vcuTF_4-Ri2_1z2oLHRDN9zHBUXf2x8Y4nJ7sGC9YNuB9_63kRo3ob-FofB1pKR_dAH5Xrwhn-s2DxbHktEAlnsIu17ETp3wXqtVSclnaI50U-tbZXvkmqQadLeKML7kzQHhg==&c=r9nco7HzH2-vEjFSOmqrNo3xOKnaDZuEl28fr9OqQVjPKa28v-8Uqw==&ch=6VHcj_UxwcNDUlCCmNd4vCAaAnbrJRcV_lkwmUZCru-X75M77EBwAw==" rel="nofollow - .
