MOUTH OF THE ARCHITECT Premiere New Song on Metal Sucks!

This year marks the ten-year anniversary of the undeniably spine-crushing band MOUTH OF THE ARCHITECT.  While many have anticipated the apocalypse in 2012, MOTA has been accurately predicting and creating the soundtrack for such a disaster since 2003.  There is perhaps no better way to celebrate such a milestone than by releasing a new face melting full-length record, and MOTA has never failed in that regard.

Today Metal Sucks is hosting an exclusive premiere of the song “Sharpen Your Axes”.  Get an exclusive first listen to the track HERE.

Lambgoat is streaming the song “How Will This End” HERE.

Pitchfork is streaming the song “It Swarms” HERE.

Dawning is available for pre-order HERE.

The current lineup consists of drummer Dave Mann, guitarists and vocalists Steve Brooks and Kevin Schindel, keyboardist and vocalist Jason Watkins, and bassist Evan Danielson.  The band plans to celebrate its ‘most glorious birthday’ by releasing a psychedelic-tinged sludge-rock masterpiece.  Remaining under the long time label support of Translation Loss Records, their new album Dawning bludgeons its way to the top of their long catalog of doom rock greatness.  These dudes last proved their heavy-metallic weight in gold when they made it through a volcanic eruption to play the Roadburn Festival on their 2010 European tour in support of “The Violence Beneath.”  This year these well-worn road veterans plan on bringing their incredibly loud and extremely hairy brand of post-metal to a venue near you in support of Dawning.  Of course, you have to live in the northern hemisphere to get your chance to witness this rock ‘n roll spectacle.

In support of Dawning MOUTH OF THE ARCHITECT will be touring this summer with Intronaut and Scale the Summit.  The Tour stars June 5^th in Seattle, WA and runs through July 6^thin Hollywood, CA.  A complete list of dates can be found below.
