Southern Lord bring us a split album from two of the heaviest sludge bands that ever existed! COFFINS from Tokyo, Japan churn out the filthiest, nastiest noise heard in a long long time, whilst Oakland, California?s sludge pioneers NOOTHGRUSH return from the grave to teach us a lesson in joylessness. Featuring artwork by Josh Graham, this utterly oppressive slab of crushing doom shall be officially released on 12_ via Southern Lord in the UK/EU on November 11th and in North America on November 26th. This is a split of frankly extraordinary calibre and superlative weight, two heavyweights of the doom world colliding with enormous results.NOOTHGRUSH return with their first studio recording since 1998, and the disdain, the disgust? It hasn?t faded one bit. Their gruesome sludge is rooted in the real life, in the misery, hatred and despair of humanity ? there are no traces of fantasy or psychedelic moments of horror movie nostalgia in this amoral cut of agonising doom. With Dino Somesse, the man who personified anguish in 90?s crust sludge golden calves Dystopia, joining the band on vocals, this is a rare ignition of the scum-ridden sludge sound which America haemorrhaged during the last decade of the millennium. Noothgrush?s side of the split opens with crawling, pained riffs punctuated with sparse percussion, and then the weight of the world comes down. Rasping vocals, disturbing samples, and songs which grab you by the throat and open your eyes to mad-made hell. -- www.sleepingshaman.com
