Looks like recording is basically done other than overdubs and stuff. Half the album is already off being mixed by some dude who usually works with Lamb of God and Jadea Kelly's going to be on it. Real stoked to hear something from this. I've heard so many conflicting things on how it's going to sound: that it's their most complex but most melodic, that it's not going to be as heavy as their progression would imply, blablabla. Come out already.

Cheers for the update, heavy, melodic, progressive, whatever, looking forward to hearing it.

The video is actually NSFW, btw.

yeah but there's some decently long clips of music so it's worth almost seeing rody's balls i guess

Sweet stuff

Let's get things movin' again around here. New album is supposedly titled Scurrilous. Release date: March 22.

It's still unconfirmed but the release date makes sense. At least half of the album is probably finished mastering by now. I'll see if I can confirm the title.

Also they're rumoured to be headlining a tour with Maylene and the Sons of Disaster and Tesseract

Think the art on that poster could be pulled from the album art?

I highly doubt it, but obviously it's possible.

Probably mentioned it but, seeing pth with Darkest Hour at the end of this month. Stoked.

this band never tours with anything other than shit

listened to the instrumental of Fortress the other day at work

arpeggios, arpeggios everywhere

band survives by writing incessant hooks (which I like)

Darkest Hour are awesome

still haven't heard the instrumental version

I love arpeggios

hooks are kool, but lead to 'claims of false metal' etc etc

Me too! Only I'm gonna see them early February, the same tour, in Hungary.

[QUOTE=adb;18356931]this band never tours with anything other than shit [/QUOTE]

it's unfortunate yea, they're stuck in a hard place. but maylene is a real step up from the shit they usually tour with

So is Darkest Hour tbh.

yeah but that's in europe so it doesnt exist as far as im concerned

Existence or not, we've got a better pth tour.

they toured with architects last year, which was good but then pth never showed up to the show so i didnt even get to see them. still pissed.

Further confirmation of a worldwide tour, and that the album is indeed named Scurrilous:

Scurrilous, what a peculiar name for an album. I like it though, better than most album titles.

Stoked.

wheres the confirmation of an instrumental version

there will probably be one since they basically record instrumentally and then rody does his thing after

most bands do that, but most bands don't want to spend money doing two mixes and two masters. i suppose it wouldn't take that much more work though

There hasn't been a final word as to who wrote the lyrics, has there?

Arif and Rody to my knowledge.
