Bongripper Announce New LP Terminal out July 6
The two 20-minute songs that comprise Bongripper‘s new album, Terminal, are respectively dubbed ‘Slow’ and ‘Death.’ So you know, points for accuracy and whatnot. The Chicago instrumentalist riffcrushers have made preorders available for the outing through their own webstore as well as a host of others, including Burning World Records in Europe, and they’ve got tour dates scheduled following the release date on July 6 — including two nights at Saint Vitus Bar in Brooklyn, the first of which will feature them playing 2010’s Satan Worshipping Doom in full. They’ll be in Finland later this year for Blowup Festival, which may or may not be part of a larger European tour still to be announced.
Their last album, 2014’s Miserable (review here), was as excellent as he was destructive, and to expect anything less of Terminal would be folly. Bongripper‘s manifestations of hopelessness always have a tendency to remove air from the lungs.
Warning comes from the band’s social medias:
BONGRIPPER – TERMINAL LP/CD/Digital (2018)
Bongripper is set to release their seventh full-length album, ‘Terminal’, on July 6, 2018. This is the follow up to 2014’s ‘Miserable.’ The album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Bongripper’s Dennis Pleckham at Comatose Studio with artwork from Sam Alcarez, the artist behind the band’s merchandise throughout the years. ‘Terminal’ will be released through their label, The Great Barrier Records on all vinyl, CD and digital formats.
Track Listing:
1. Slow 20:15
2. Death 20:06
