Apostle of Solitude Sign to Cruz del Sur; New Album Of Woe and Wounds Due in Oct.

Posted in Whathaveyou on May 22nd, 2014 by JJ Koczan

Excellent news out of the Midwest today as Indianapolis trad doomers Apostle of Solitude have inked a deal to release their newly-recorded third album, Of Woe and Wounds, on Cruz del Sur Music. This makes the Indy four-piece labelmates with the likes of Vestal Claret and Argus, among many others, and the long-awaited follow-up to their 2010 sophomore outing, Last Sunrise (review here), is set to arrive in October. It will do so preceded by their 2012 Demo (stream/review here), which still gets pretty regular spins around these parts, and the track “Whores Wings,” which premiered here last July. Of Woe and Wounds — not to be confused with the Les Claypool solo outing, Of Whales and Woe — will also mark the first album appearance of guitarist/vocalist Steve Janiak, also of Devil to Pay, who joined after the second record was released.

Kudos to the band and the label. Seems like a good fit all around. Apostle of Solitude will also appear at Days of the Doomed IV next month. Poster and info on that follow with the announcement below, which comes via Cruz del Sur:
