In a world without Weakling and Xasthur, it's certainly nice to hear and American black metal band as terrifying as they are atmospheric. California's Ash Borer are back and gearing up for the release of their new EP entitled Bloodlands which will be released on Gilead Media and Psychic Violence in April. "Oblivion's Spring" is a sprawling, gloomy, 15-minute epic with plenty of chilling tremolo-picking riffs customary to the genre as well as a healthy dose of funeral doom influence from artists like Ahab and Catacombs. This song comes highly recommended to anyone living in a place with consistently bad weather.

Ash Borer- "Descended Lamentations" (Clip)
New TracksCommentAmerican black metal outfit Ash Borer has a new album on the way via Profound Lore, and you can hear a colossal clip of the album's first track above. The 4-track LP will be titled Cold of Ages, which is certainly a fitting title if every track brings the frigid, atmospheric aesthetic the clip above does. Two songs even feature Jessica Way of Worm Ouroboros on vocals as well.
Cold of Ages will be out August 14th.
