Birmingham (UK)-based industrial/doom metal band Khost released a new track "Death Threat". The track is taken from the upcoming album entitled Many Things Afflict Us Few Things Console Us, which will be released on 20 September via Cold Spring Records. Composed of 18 tracks in its digipak version and 11 tracks in its vinyl version, Many Things Afflict Us Few Things Console Us sees the band forging new and at times nightmarish territories, alongside their signature walls of detuned guitar, corroded percussion and VHS atmospherics.
The inspiration for many of the tracks came from countless live shows and even soundcheck experiments in which extreme, harsh electronics evolved, as did punk/early industrial tempos, all of which were then fused into the DNA of Khost's Many Things Afflict Us Few Things Console Us.
Khost comments: "We hoped that the experience would be something like venturing into an off-limits wing of some gallery after-hours, with each turn more disorientating than where you just were."
Collaborators include Axebreaker (aka Terence Hannum of Locrian), acclaimed cellist Jo Quail, and Berlin-based sound designer Manuel Liebeskind. Now, check out the oppressive industrial nightmare called "Death Threat" right below. Link
