As Flatspot Records prepares the debut LP by San Diego metallic hardcore outfit, MIZERY, for its street date this July, the label advances the Absolute Light album with a special promo release of two new tracks. The songs “One Kiss” and “Discrimination Of Eye” are now available through a limited cassette release, as well as streaming through an online double premiere at Revolver Magazine.

Check out Revolver’s premiere of MIZERY’s “One Kiss” and “Discrimination Of Eye” now at THIS LOCATION.

Flatspot Records will release Absolute Light on July 22nd, with a European pressing licensed to Reality Records. The advance two-song cassette is available for purchase through the label now RIGHT HERE. Stand by for LP preorders to be posted in the coming weeks.

Next week, MIZERY will play at Sound And Fury 2016 in Los Angeles, joining American Nightmare, Nails, Soul Search, Angel Du$t, Downpresser, Forced Order, Twitching Tongues, and many others. From there, the band will tour across the country on Nuke The Nation 2016, alongside Response, Lock, Gag, Unified Right, Society Abuse, Skourge, and others throughout the cross-country trek, returning back to the West Coast on the Mama We Coming Home Tour including shows with Will To Die. And in August, MIZERY will head back out on the road, this time supporting Merauder on their final US tour, which doubles as a twentieth anniversary run for their classic Master Killer album, circling the Eastern half of the country from August 20th through September 2nd.

With a cast of Southern California area musicians currently/formerly involved in Twitching Tongues, Downpresser, Gods Hate, Xibalba, The Beautiful Ones, and others, MIZERY is a driven and direct metallic hardcore band with eclectic influences that encompass a diverse musical and intellectual concept. The band’s sound falls somewhere in between the direct energy and grit of the NYHC scene, citing the likes of Cro-Mags, Leeway, and Crown Of Thornz, with the cutting edge of West Coast thrash metal acts Megadeth, Suicidal Tendencies, and the like, retaining vintage tones and classic styles yet delivering them with a modernized approach. This incredibly hard-working band is quickly managing to stir quite a buzz around their craft, humbling working towards the goal of putting San Diego Hardcore on the map and playing music that they would genuinely like to listen to themselves.

In February 2016, MIZERY took over The Pit Studios in Van Nuys with Taylor Young (Nails, Twitching Tongues, Rotting Out), to record Absolute Light, the album delivering ten bruising and infectious tunes, where the hard edge of the band’s music contrasts tastefully with the poetic lyrics, influenced by spiritual topics and philosophical questions. Featuring guest vocals by David Wood (Down To Nothing, Terror), Dan Weinraub (Downpresser), and Anthony Herrera (Take Offense), Absolute Light was mixed and mastered by Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, War Hungry) at Solomon’s Gate’s in Philadelphia, and features cover artwork by Sam Octigan (Iron Mind, Warbrain, Outsiders Code).
