Hostage Animal will be released on October 27 via Southern Lord.
Denver’s Primitive Man reach the apex of their insurmountably heavy and unflinchingly misanthropic and demoralizing sound with their aptly titled sophomore full-length, Caustic.
Due to their intense, foreboding sound and visual style and prolific nature, Primitive Man have been making quite the name for themselves and have been turning more and more heads as time passes. It’s not often you hear a band whose feelings of inner turmoil and disdain for humankind feel completely genuine and not fantastical. This Colorado trio seemed to have captured negativity and pessimism in its purest, unadulterated form through audio.
Mysterious Japanese hardcore/powerviolence outfit Friendship have announced the vinyl release of their debut full-length, Hatred. The 25-minute LP was originally released in Japan back in June via Daymare Recordings, but will be given the vinyl treatment by Southern Lord on October 20. The album’s artwork and track listing can be found after the break, along with streams of the tracks “Tortures” and “Life Sentence”.
The band’s previously-released, head-turning I&II EPs can be streamed here.
Tennessee sludge/stoner duo Namazu are poised to release their debut full-length recording, Works Cited, later this month. The upcoming effort features 11 tracks of raw, buzzing sludge that are simultaneously crushing and catchy. For the uninitiated, previously-released singles “Bactine” and “Gunwhale” provide a small taste of the action to come.
In anticipating for its release, Svbterranean are excited to bring you a stream of the album’s third track, “Dragged Fighting From His Tomb”. The three-minute stunner kicks out earworm, concussive grooves and thunderous drumming that will be stuck in your bleeding brain for hours to come. Check it out after the break.

Following 2015’s Show Your Greed and their 2016 collaborative effort with Seraph the Light, Florida metallic hardcore outfit Axis will return this November with their sophomore full-length album, Shift. The band recently premiered the first single from the upcoming effort via Metal Sucks. The new track, titled “Fear and Impulse”, is a vitriolic number that combines the muscular grit of new age metallic hardcore with the angularity of the genre’s progenitors. Check out the track after the break.
Shift will be released on November 10 via Good Fight Music.
Crawling out of the swamps of Louisiana comes Sounding; a band with an endless array of face-melting mathcore instrumentation that harks back to the Myspace spazz-grind days. In just a few short weeks, these Southern noisemakers will be releasing their debut full-length, Trepanantion, via Dark Trail Records. The forthcoming 15-minute barrage of grinding mayhem is enough to cause mass brain hemorrhaging the world over. Previously-released singles can attest to this if you do not believe us.
In anticipation of the album’s release, Svbterranean bring you an exclusive stream of its penultimate track, “Third Eye Money Shot”. This two-minute stormer churns out discombobulating, earsplitting riffs and dissonant beatdowns that show absolutely no mercy. Fans of As the Sun Sets, Robinson, See You Next Tuesday, Ion Dissonance and the like will not want to glance over this. Check it out after the break. Continue Reading

With roughly 21 minutes at their disposal, Edmonton’s Suffer Me deliver a fiercely venomous amalgam of grind and mathcore on their forthcoming, self-titled album. Rife with dissonance, disfigured riff structures and dizzying complexity, Suffer Me‘s debut will satiate the appetites of fans of grossly abstract grind of the highest order.
In anticipation of its impending release, we at Svbterranean are excited to bring you an exclusive stream of its opening track, “Dissolve & Reform”. In a mere 74 seconds, this unhinged, vitriolic track unleashes enough volatile rhythmic shifts and frenetic instrumentation to make your head spin. Fans of Fuck the Facts, Maruta and the like, take now. Check it out after the break.
Suffer Me will be released on October 11.
