20 Buck Spin announces today that we’ll release the new LP/CD by Austin, TX based Mammoth Grinder. ‘Underworlds’ will be released on July 23rd on LP / CD / Digital. There will be limited blue vinyl for mailorder as well. Press release via Earsplit PR below the Joe Petagno (!) album cover:

It’s been nearly four years since the last MAMMOTH GRINDER full length Extinction Of Humanity was released via Relapse Records (CD) and Cyclopean Records (LP). That album showcased the band’s direction into a distinctly death metal permutation, full of aggression and punk rawness. The band continued in this spirit on 2011’s split LP with fellow Austin, Texas-based Hatred Surge. Now in 2013, after much anticipation, MAMMOTH GRINDERhas found a home on 20 Buck Spin for the release of their wildly destructive third full length album Underworlds.

Underworlds marks a peak at which MAMMOTH GRINDER have sharpened and perfected their sound into a seething grind/death/thrash maelstrom of intense degree; unrelenting in its concentrated raw precision and focused power, Underworlds careens violently through ten tracks with effortless versatility and the fixated songcraft expected of a band on their third record. Tracks like “Wraparound Eyes” with its Unleashed style mid-section or the short sharp shock of “Paragon Pusher” illustrate MAMMOTH GRINDER’s mastery over multiple variations of metal to assemble their own sound. Fans of Entombed, Pig Destroyer, Municipal Waste, Discharge, Napalm Death and Iron Lung will beat themselves into submission for missing out on this album, so do yourself a favor, and don’t miss out on it…

MAMMOTH GRINDER is a live band and that is where the songs on Underworlds will expose their most virulent strain. Additionally the album is adorned with artwork by the legendary Joe Petagno whose work has graced albums from artists like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin to Motörhead and Marduk.

20 Buck Spin will expose the damaging Underworlds on LP, CD and digital worldwide on July 23rd, and MAMMOTH GRINDER shall tour extensively upon the album’s release. In the meantime the band will play out regionally, providing support for the May 10th appearance of this year’s Decibel Magazine Tour featuring Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death and Immolation as it hits Houston, Texas, and a badass spot alongside Magic Circle, Iron Lung, Cruciamentum, Tragedy and the almighty Bolt Thrower at this year’s Chaos In Tejas in MG’s hometown of Austin on Friday, May 31st.

MAMMOTH GRINDER Live Grindings:
5/10/2013 Fitzgerald’s – Houston, TX @ Decibel Magazine Tour w/ Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, Immolation
5/31/2013 11E5 – Austin, TX @ Chaos In Tejas w/ Bolt Thrower, Tragedy, Iron Lung

Below is a press release by our friends at Earsplit Compound regarding our forthcoming release of the debut Lycus album ‘Tempest’. The incredible cover art by Paolo Girardi is revealed as well:

20 Buck Spin this week verifies the pending release of the debut album from Bay Area doom crew, LYCUSon July 9th 2013.

Having existed since 2008 in some form or another, LYCUS relocated to Oakland from Sacramento and recorded/released their Demo MMXI two years ago. The brooding, quality material of the demo not only saw eventual cassette release by Graceless Recordings (run by Mike Meacham of LOSS) and a vinyl release on San Francisco-based Flenser Records, but it immediately caught the attention of Olympia-based 20 Buck Spin — the label having originated in the East Bay Area and continually having a soft spot for bands of the region — who brought them onto the label’s roster for the release of their debut album.

Late in 2012, LYCUS entered hometown Earhammer Studios with Greg Wilkinson (Brainoil, Asunder, Pallbearer, Vastum, Samothrace, High On Fire), who captured and mixed the band’s immense Tempest LP. An incredibly mature, diverse and utterly monumental album, the three massive hymns on Tempest range between nine-and-a-half minutes to over twenty. The canvas of this masterwork is classic funeral doom in the territory of Mournful Congregation, Asunder and My Dying Bride, yet the template is varied as LYCUS’palette includes shades of hysteric black metal, old-school death doom pummeling, and even a bit of pull from noise/drone realms.

Featuring an incredible oil painting by the Italian madman Paolo Girardi as cover art and a regal layout by Kevin Gan Yuen of Sutekh Hexen (who also contributes musically to the album’s closing moments),Tempest is the most promising debut of 2013 in the doom genre, and establishes LYCUS, from the beginning, as a band to watch in the months and years ahead. The album will see CD/LP and digital release on July 9th.

LYCUS is planning U.S. Summer tour dates which will continue sporadically throughout the rest of 2013, with several hometown gigs confirmed for this month.

LYCUS Live:

5/03/2013 First Church of The Buzzard – West Oakland, CA w/ Druden, Chronaexus, Gloam, Caffa

5/25/2013 Oakland Metro – Oakland, CA w/ Badr Vogu, Usnea, Black Fucking Cancer, Augers
