THEORIES: New Lyric Video From Seattle Death Grind Division Now Playing At No Clean Singing; In-Studio Session To Air On KEXP This Weekend + Record Release Show Announced And More

Today, the crypt-keepers at No Clean Singing hurl forth a brand new lyric video for “Burnt Concrete,” from Seattle death grind division, THEORIES. The scathing new hymn comes by way of the band’s forthcoming new full-length, Regression, set for final descent in less than two weeks via Metal Blade Records.

Boasting ten vehement tracks of grisly, confrontational, crust-infused death grind, Regression is the sound of social discontent, economic uncertainty, environmental catastrophes, and the inevitable cycle of decay. Elaborates the band of opening rager, “Burnt Concrete,” “Lyrically this song represents the theme of the record very well, the current, very fast decline and beginning to the end of society, civilization and our all-around existence. Our world has been going downhill for a long time now but as of recent, the downward spiral has been regressing at a hyperspeed rate. To sum it up, we’re all fucked and there’s no fixing anything now. Musically, this song represents the feel of the record as well: technical death grind. Instead of going in depth describing what it sounds like and coming up with catchy ‘sub genre’ phrases, just give it a listen and let the music speak for itself.”

Observes No Clean Singing, “If you’re not pissed off, you shouldn’t be playing grind, and ‘Burnt Concrete’ is very pissed-off metal. But at the same time it’s got some melodic hooks and punishing rhythms that give the song character, beyond the pure adrenaline rush that it delivers.”

Feel (and read) the wrath of THEORIES’ “Burnt Concrete” lyric video at THIS LOCATION.

And if you missed it you can still witness the sonic oppressions of “Shame,” still streaming at Noisey HERE.

THEORIES has been propagating the seeds of bleak, dark, and terminally infuriated grind metal in the Pacific Northwest since their 2011 inception. The band, comprised of current and former members of Samothrace, Skarp, and Book Of Black Earth among others, released their debut EP that same year. Their livecampaign followed shortly thereafter, and have since terrorized the stages through the US on nearly a dozen tours and to festivals including Maryland Death Fest, Chaos in Tejas, Southwest Terror Fest, and their most recent trek with new label mates, Cattle Decapitation.

Regression was tracked at The Red Room and The Boiler Room with producer/engineer Derek Moree (The Sword, Pelican, Minus The Bear et al) with mixing and mastering conducted by Visceral Sound’s Scott Hull (Pig Destroyer, Agoraphobic Nosebleed) and will be available for public ingestion on March 24th, 2015 via Metal Blade Records. Preorder bundles are currently available at: http://www.metalblade.com/theories where you can also overload your earholes with the sounds of “Cycle Of Decay.”

“Having a sound that is best described as spastic death grind, their attack is focused and tight and always relentless. They echo aspects of early Dropdead, Siege, Terrorizer, and Repulsion, but still keeping the music inherently modern and, for all its illusory simplicity, surprisingly sophisticated.” – No Clean Singing

THEORIES takes the innovations of bands like Misery Index and Kill The Client and add a little Northwestern crust flavor…” – Noisey
