Bleeding Sorrows

Good news for all you metalcore fans, Bleeding Through's new album is on its way!

Set for release on the 13th of April, the self titled LP will be the Californian sextet's sixth studio release since their formation back in 1999 and sees the replacement of former axe-man Jona Weinhofen by ex No Use For A Name man Dave Nassie

Building on the more metal influenced sounds of their previous album, Declaration, the band's latest effort sees vocalist Brandan Schieppati's black metal influences creeping into his voice, though fortunately the band retain their trademark sound and haven't resorted to 'wasp in a jar' guitar tone and full on old school Burzum screeches.

Even better, rather than having to rely on hazy descriptions you can actually hear two of the new tracks on Bleeding Through's Myspace page right now!

If you're just itching for Schieppati to take a more black metal oriented route then wait no longer, because Musical Scares' Band of The Week is bound to hit the spot.

The vocalist has teamed up with Anaal Nathrakh's Mick Kenney to create Sorrows. Essentially a black metalcore project, the pair recorded a full album last year and are currently hunting for a label to release the onslaught.

Sorrows are also in the process of assembling a live line-up, having recently drafted in Trevor Friedrich, who previously drummed for Schieppati's former band Eighteen Visions and is currently working with industrial legends Combichrist.

It's as though the wonders of the internet never cease, as you can also listen to a preview of Sorrows album on their official Myspace page, including the frankly incredible 'Follow Me To Disappointment' which will have Bleeding Through and Anaal Nathrakh fans alike salivating in preparation for the album's release.
