Progressive metal outfit BARISHI will be releasing ‘Old Smoke’ on April 24 via Season of Mist! The album artwork and track-list can be found below. In conjunction with the announcement, the band have partnered up with Metal Injection to premiere the first single from the offering, “Blood Aurora”. The song can be heard at THIS LOCATION.

Speaking of the song, BARISHI comments: “’Blood Aurora’ was one of the first songs we wrote and recorded for our new album ‘Old Smoke.’ The writing process felt very natural and fresh to us. The song really came together after playing it on a tour we were doing with Tombs. We feel as though this is a solid representation as where we are now as a band and the new record as a whole.”

‘Old Smoke’ can be pre-ordered in various formats HERE.
