@revolvermag premieres new @kaelanmikla track "Nornalagið" – "a head-bopping beat and piercing wails that evoke the cold, dark fog rolling across the Icelandic plains..." The Icelandic trio mixes raw punk, witchy darkness, and synthy dancefloor drama, into its own electrifying sound that's been tested on tour with King Dude and at festivals supporting The Cure and more... New album "Nótt eftir nótt" drops 11/9 on @artoffact_records
@planetbband teamed up with hip-hop legend @officialkoolkeith on new track "Crustfund"! Check out the music video for this awesome collab right now! Debut album is coming 11/23 on @ipecacrecordings 🔥 “Justin Pearson has made his name with spazzy, noisy weirdo-rock outfits like The Locust, Retox and Dead Cross, but his project Planet B – a collaboration with hip-hop producer Luke Henshaw – might be his most left-field yet. The duo smashes together strains of hardcore, hip-hop, industrial and old-school horror movie scores... It's head-spinning and head-splitting in the best way possible." —Revolver 🔥”Few MCs have been as comfortable [as Kool Keith] in their absurdity, their convention-trashing, or their absolute fearlessness in trying new things on the mic." —Pitchfork 🔥 #planetb #koolkeith #threeoneg #ipecacrecordings #punk #hiphop #musicvideo #musicpr #thechainworld
Listen to the entire new @kingbuffaloband album "Longing to Be the Mountain" now via Metal Injection! "Lush soundscapes, evocative sonic textures and plenty of head-bobbing groove... Spacey, riffy and bluesy psych rock is punctuated by stoner-like groove... King Buffalo could just be your new favorite band." #kingbuffalo #psych #psychrock #blues #prog #stonerrock #metalinjection #musicpr #thechainworld

@kaelanmikla kicks off their European tour with @kingdudemusic tonight in Berlin! This Icelandic trio’s witchy, synthy punk completely rules. New album “Nótt eftir nótt” is out 11/9 on @artoffact_records — “sure to become one of the most impactful dark-wave releases of the year” in the words of Revolver Magazine! #kælanmikla #kaelanmikla #postpunk #kingdude #europeantour #iceland #icelandicmusic #musicpr #thechainworld
Psych/stoner authority The Obelisk has laid down some early praise for @deadwavesband and “Astrapi,” the first song revealed off the NYC duo’s new Martin Bisi-produced album “God of the Wild”... “A broad soundscape somewhere between heavy psych and post-rock”... Think ‘80s Sonic Youth, lost in the woods upstate for the afternoon... #deadwaves #martinbisi #theobelisk #psych #psychrock #nycmusic #musicpr #thechainworld
Check out the title track to the Panicker @panicker.sweat EP “Blasphony” on Three One G @threeoneg now streaming via @newnoisemagazine #panicker #threeoneg #newnoisemagazine #thechainworld #musicpremiere #ebm
“Glitchy, squelching soundscapes that are sometimes a little synth-rock, sometimes like eerie soundtrack music, occasionally ugly dissonance and just pure sonic confusion...” Grab Decibel Magazine’s November issue (Behemoth cover) containing a review of Avola’s debut album “Zone” — out now on Sleeping Giant Glossolalia! @avola_avola @sgglossolalia @decibelmagazine #avola #noise #decibelmagazine #musicpr #thechainworld
We are proud to be working with Icelandic trio @kaelanmikla whose new album “Nótt eftir nótt” comes out Nov 9th on @artoffact_records — Revolver says: “Icelandic post-punk outfit Kælan Mikla certainly live up to their homeland's chilly name. The group has had a huge year, playing to audiences at the Roadburn and Meltdown festivals, the latter of which was curated by goth godfather himself Robert Smith. Frigid synth scales and haunting murmurs... Sure to become one of the most impactful dark-wave releases of the year.” #kælanmikla #kaelanmikla #iceland #icelandicmusic #postpunk #thecure #musicpr #thechainworld
On the eve of @actorsmusic US tour, frontman Jason Corbett took time to chat with Echoes and Dust about some favorite albums. Check out his recommendations and catch this band live across the USA this month, including slots at all three of the @coldwavesfestival locations (NYC, Chicago, LA) and shows with Bootblacks and more... Post-Punk.com describes ACTORS’ sound as “cinematic new-wave... that belongs on a Michael Mann soundtrack.” #actors #postpunk #tour #coldwaves #coldwavesfestival #musicpr #thechainworld TOURDATES: actorstheband.com
@actorsmusic kick off their US tour this Saturday 9/15 at the NYC installment of @coldwavesfestival alongside Frontline Assembly, The Black Queen, and Hide... ACTORS’ coast-to-coast tour sees them hit all three Cold Waves festival locations (NYC, Chicago, LA) and play other shows with the likes of Bootblacks and Soft Kill! From Vancouver, Canada, ACTORS’ anthemic, synth-heavy post-punk is “cinematic new wave... that belongs on a Michael Mann soundtrack” in the words of Post-Punk.com! #actors #postpunk #newwave #tour #coldwaves #coldwavesfestival #musicpr #thechainworld
@exclaimdotca has debuted new @nethrock video “Rewild!” — the song and video carry “a message of urgent environmentalism” set to the band’s trademark heavy/euphoric sound that has earned comparisons to The Melvins... The prolific Netherlands put out TWO releases in 2018 — the Hope Porn EP and the Black Gaia album — and was poised to tour North America this month with Mastodon and Dinosaur Jr (sadly cancelled due to a tragedy in the Mastodon camp...) #netherlands #mastodon #dinosaurjr #melvins #rock #metal #videopremiere #musicpr #thechainworld
@cvltnation premieres new @deadwavesband track "Astrapi" from upcoming album "God of the Wild"! Intense/soulful/somber NYC psych, produced by Martin Bisi (Sonic Youth, Swans). Dead Waves marries the urban intensity of classic Bisi productions like Sonic Youth's EVOL, with a bare-bones, lo-fi sound evoking rural vistas... Like a secret door in a New York subway tunnel, leading to sun-kissed, rolling hills... “Are you ready to expand your mind?... Dead Waves' music is like life itself – heavy, fragile, and full of cosmic pain!” #deadwaves #psych #psychrock #bcstudio #sonicyouth #musicpr #premiere #cvltnation #thechainworld
