Dälek , paragons of sonic discord and aggressive social critique, are releasing a new album on 9.1 called Endangered Philosophies . This will be the first release the group has put out via Ipecac Recordings since 2009's Gutter Tactics . For "Echoes of…," Dälek's well-honed mode of conveyance remains intact, a mire of agit-tone (apparently sampled from METZ ) providing foundation for aggressive, head-knocking percussion and turntable work. "Intellect is mourned by the intelligent/Truths once self-evident/Replaced by vile rhetoric…," MC Dälek laments, a requiem for humanity's ability to think critically and not so quickly fall prey to propaganda.   Endangered Philosophies is up for pre-order .  You can listen to "Echoes of…" here: Information regarding Endangered Philosophies , links, and tour dates were provided by Rarely Unable.   DÄLEK STREAM NEW SONG “ECHOES OF…” ENDANGERED PHILOSOPHIES ARRIVES SEPT. 1 VIA IPECAC RECORD

Matt Nish-Lapidus performs as New Tendencies and his album, Missed Month , will be out July 7th. As a primer for the album, "Monday 1" has surfaced, itself built from an array of low electronic throbs and staccato notes that never quite achieve the harmony needed to create a viable rhythmic loop.  This a relationship meant to crumble, though, the track's more uncooperative elements instigating small but significant bouts of insubordination.   Missed Month is being released via Forking Paths .

Chelsea Wolfe 's despair is sublime. Inasmuch as it seems callous to luxuriate in one’s sorrow, it’s difficult to hear Wolfe’s vocal in “16 Psyche,” lead single from her upcoming new album, Hiss Spun , and not acknowledge that hers is an expression both powerful and breathtaking. While the added impact of the track’s solid bottom and viscous riffed melody intensifies its resolve, Wolfe brings a considerable amount of vulnerability to the dynamic, her phrases ethereally shrouded and delicate. It’s a thoughtful combination of sounds, aggression a vehicle that Wolfe adorns with something else entirely. This isn’t necessarily a new aspect of her sound: “Dragged Out” from her 2015 album, Abyss , worked similarly in a marriage of brawn and beauty that I found particularly engaging. Hiss Spun is scheduled to release on September 22nd via Sargent House. All release info, links, and tour dates were provided by Rarely Unable.  CHELSEA WOLFE ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM HISS SPUN , O
