A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH will release their sophomore album Lay My Soul to Waste, May 21st in North America on Steamhammer/SPV. Once again, the artwork was commissioned by Sam Shearon, who is also responsible for artwork on the band’s first release, And Hell Will Follow Me.
Today, APHND announced the addition of new bass player Dave Bizzigotti from Speed Kill Hate.
Frontman Sal Abruscato commented on Dave joining the band:
“APHND is excited to begin a new chapter with Dave Bizzigotti as APHND’s new bassist, he is one of us and gets what we are about. We look forward to crushing the fans with our sonic doom”
Check out the track Killer By Night HERE.
The track Shallow Grave, as heard on The Welding Room radio program is streaming HERE.
On the surface, A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH are impressive. But you’ll want to dig deeper and immerse yourself in all the sonic and lyrical layers, because the band isn’t afraid to plumb the depths of darkness that humanity is capable of. It’s murky stuff, but someone has to do it.
Sal Abruscato and Matt Brown followed 2011’s incredible introduction And Hell Will Follow Me with Lay My Soul to Waste, which keeps the band’s patented signature formula of slow, deliberate sludge and head-down doom intact and as flawlessly executed as ever.
Think Alice in Chains, only harder, angrier and with a more perverse view of the world, as if they were reared in a row house in Bensonhurst, as opposed to the rainy landscape of Seattle, all the while feasting on a steady diet of Black Sabbath records.
A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH arrived with And Hell Will Follow Me. They firmly implanted their roots in the metal scene with Lay My Soul to Waste. It’s a metal album that headbangers who enjoy a walk on the darker side of life will end up revering and responding to.
Lay My Soul to Waste can be pre-ordered on Amazon on both CD and LP.
