EHNAHRE To Release 'Alpha/Omega' 12-Inch In March
February 10, 2010Boston-based avant black/death/doom metal band EHNAHRE will follow up its debut record, "The Man Closing Up", with a new 12-inch release, entitled "Alpha/Omega".
With 2009 seeing the addition of drummer/noise artist/wacko Ricardo Donoso, EHNAHRE plumbed even further into the depths of rhythmic flux and sway which characterized their debut release. This record sees EHNAHRE starting to stretch out, and progress beyond their beginnings — more extremes, more chaos, more discordant guitar lines, and vocals akin to the outburst of a bloodthirsty, drunken schizophrenic.
"Alpha/Omega" was written based on the poems "Leda and the Swan" and "The Second Coming" by Irish writer William Butler Yeats. Utilizing mythological, mystical, and religious themes, the text alludes to the beginning of the world, and Armageddon. Taking its ugly, atonal and oppressive sound to new lows of stifling darkness and malevolence, the uncompromising dissonance and instability on this record will salt the earth with EHNAHRE's aural depravity.
"Alpha/Omega" will be made available on March 1 via Fun with Asbestos Records in a limited run of 100 copies. Mastered by James Plotkin, it will be released exclusively on 12-inch vinyl, pressed at 45 rpm with hand-printed jackets.
