hip PILGRIM: Rhode Island Doom Trio Premiere New Song onnew hip site Brooklyn Vegan[views:25344][posts:77]______________________________________ [Jan 30,2012 3:02pm - the_reverend ""] PILGRIM: Rhode Island Doom Trio Premiere New Song on Brooklyn Vegan Today BrooklynVegan premieres "Quest," the latest single from Rhode Island doom dooers PILGRIM. "Quest" is the third track off the band's forthcoming debut full-length, Misery Wizard, set for North American release on February 14, 2012. Commented the band in a collective statement: "'Quest' was one of our first songs. It has a special place in our hearts. It tells the tale of a man's grueling journey through a desert to obtain an ancient relic locked away in a palace for thousands of years." Check out the tune as well as an interview with the band at THIS LOCATION. http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2012/01/an_interview_wi_57.html PILGRIM are the latest addition to the Metal Blade roster via Alan Nemtheanga's imprint, Poison Tongue Records. Said Pure Grain Audio in an advance review of the record: "PILGRIM is a massive slab of slow-burning, sludgy doom metal. This is true doom metal, not the hybrid bile that so many bands are passing off as doom these days. The monster riffs will bludgeon you senseless and shake you to the core, but you'll keep coming back from more, willingly and repeatedly." Added Sea Of Tranquility, "slow, ponderous, crushing doom, owing much to vintage Black Sabbath, Saint Vitus, Pentagram, and the like. Ominous riffs, pounding rhythms, and haunting vocals make up the formula here, and tracks such as 'Quest,' 'Astaroth,' and 'Masters of the Sky' mix up the slow motion death marches with speedier dirges for a wild ride." PILGRIM will be ravaging the East Coast this March with their soul-crushing bottom end this March before making their way to Europe in May. Confirmed dates thus far are available below.

Everyone there is trying to make a buck. It is obvious that there is something terribly, terribly wrong there. Even hidden away in the warehouse districts, where there is a "small, secret scene", it's little more than pretentious hipster music. The scene is dominated by singer/songwriter bubblegum shit and screamo/emo garbage, with a few noise rock bands in between. I have complete respect for the noise bands that were making music in Providence during the late 90's, early 00's, bands like Lightning Bolt and White Mice, but their time has passed and their glorious empire has fallen. Providence is a mere shadow of its former self." heyoooooo |
