I’ve kind of tried to make extra effort since the start of the new year to keep up listening to the latest albums as they come out (I’m fortunate enough to have a Google Play Music account and I use it profusely).
Since I’ve listened to so many new albums this month, I thought I’d share with you my four favorites.
Check the list out here.

Louisiana nu metallers Cane Hill have released their newest track “It Follows” via RevolverMag.com.
“It Follows” comes off the band’s forthcoming album Too Far Gone due out January 19 via Rise Records.
About “It Follows”, singer Elijah Witt told Revolver, “This was a really fun song to write and it probably took us the longest. It’s heavy and catchy all at once. We were trying to go for full on ‘metal epic’ without over-reaching and I think we did just that.”
Cane Hill will be hitting the road soon to tour with Of Mice & Men, Blessthefall and Fire From the Gods.
Check out “It Follows” as well as other recent Cane Hill tracks and the band’s upcoming tour dates here.

There are some bands more adept at riding the chaos than others in the storied history of underground music. From noise and hardcore pioneers like Steel Pole Bathtub to Man Is The Bastard to synth/indie/post-core bands like Six Finger Satellite to numerous grindcore bands like Fuck The Facts, etc.- some groups just embody the concept of "fuck it/let's really go for it" more than others. NY's Black Mesa sits proudly in that same spirit of frenzy and ferocious inventiveness, as evidenced by their recent compilation of insanely manic live performances. Whatever sub genre they throw in the emotional blender, you are bound to enjoy a deliciously nutritious smoothie of muddy sonic punk purée.
