In December of 2015, three bands with three different stylistic approaches to aggressive music, came together to create a collective piece of work – “The Depression Sessions”. THY ART IS MURDER, THE ACACIA STRAIN, FIT FOR AN AUTOPSY and Nuclear Blast Entertainment will release the results of this experience both digitally and on limited edition vinyl, on August 12th.
You can now stream the single ‘They Will Know Another‘ by THY ART IS MURDER here:
The song is among the last pieces of music the band recorded before the departure of vocalist CJ McMahon.
As previously announced, extreme metal titans ARCH ENEMY will return to North America this July/August to headline the 2015 installment of “Summer Slaughter”, issues Century Media. Featuring BORN OF OSIRIS, VEIL OF MAYA, THE ACACIA STRAIN, OBSCURA, AFTER THE BURIAL, CATTLE DECAPITATION, and BEYOND CREATION as support, this tour will mark the band’s second North American run on this album cycle – but the first stateside trek to feature new guitarist Jeff Loomis.
