Omaha noisemaker Thou Art I has released her newest album Dreams of an Outside World today.
Also today, Bandcamp isn’t taking cuts from purchases made at their site.
If you haven’t had a chance before, now is a great time to check out Thou Art I. She has a pretty expansive discography over at Bandcamp.

You can now order a new effort from underground heroes Thou via Sacred Bones. The record is called Magus and is certain to be baller. The bandcamp has different art than a press release I got today, so not sure which is ‘most’ official but it will surely be rad.
Add to My RadarWe're thrilled to be releasing 'Magus,' the new full-length by Thou, on August 31. You can listen to the song "The Changeling Prince" now, and hear the band interviewed on All Songs Considered, via @nprmusic: https://t.co/K6uSY8KD4P pic.twitter.com/cOgQcgdyKh

The initial line up for Basilica Hudson‘s Basilica SoundScape 2017 shows the gem of a little festival continuing to be insanely well curated and offering some of the best in envelope pushing performers every year since inception.
Basilica SoundScape 2017 will feature a wide array of performers, writers, and visual artists whose work spans many different genres, mediums and approaches. More participants will be announced in the coming months, and the initial lineup can be viewed in full below.
Very stoked for the bulk of performers announced so far. Been jamming Zola Jesus’ old album The Spoils a lot of late and serpentwithfeet is one of the most next level performers – with a scary potent voice – I have heard in years.
Every day for the past five days I have sat down to tell you all about my weekend spent experiencing 15 hours of live, genuine metal from the hearts and souls of 19 bands. But how do you put into words one of the most unbelievable musical experiences of your life? I don’t think the mere words that I am about to put down will ever truly do it justice, but I will try my best.
The last weekend of April, 2012 had been a day I had been anxiously awaiting for months. Day 2 of the Gilead Media Music Festival had arrived and I was about to re-immerse myself into the 2 days, 19 bands, 15 hours of live metal in its many varied forms. Adam Bartlett, the mastermind behind Gilead Media, has been busting his ass off for countless months to bring this unbelievable event to a small, relatively conservative community nestled in the bosom of the Midwest. This weekend was all and more than I ever expected.
Get the full Day 2 overview here. You can also check out our full Day 2 photo gallery on our Facebook page.
And in case you missed, the Day 1 overview is here.

California thrash upstarts Warbringer have returned to settle the score and cement their long term legacy fully with sixth album Weapons of Tomorrow. "Firepower Kills" probably ought to open all their future shows, just a complete stage setter for chaos. "Crushed Beneath The Tracks" and "Power Unsurpassed" in particular show this band would have ruled 1988 with ease and contain maximum neck injuring/ fist pumping potential (along with notable Slayer-worthy wraith shrieking). I am not 100% on the semi-thin snare sound but it hardly distracts the band's performances are all monstrous on this bad boy. Exodus, Annihilator fans or of course fans of more new school speed thrash bands should get all over this one. \m/
