Depressive suicidal black metallers Ghost Bath today announce that they will release their debut album, Funeral, on all digital services on May 4. Having initially emerged from the DSBM underground in February 2014, this debut full-length release containing 12 haunting tracks shed a first light on the phenomenon that is Ghost Bath. For a long time, the physical editions of the album have been sold out and the songs have never been available on digital streaming platforms, until now.

“Funeral is the first LP I wrote as Ghost Bath,” states frontman Nameless. "This is the album that really started it all and it quickly became well-known in the DSBM world. For the first time since its release in 2014, four years ago, it will be available on Spotify, iTunes and other digital platforms through Nuclear Blast."

In addition, the album with the beautiful cover artwork, depicting a painting from John Everett Millais, will be available on vinyl (limited to 500 copies only!) through Ghost Bath 's Bandcamp, here:  https://ghostbath.bandcamp.com

Ascending Arkansas progressive doom quartet, Pallbearer, have announced that they will be gracing UK stages this summer for a run of club shows, on top of several previously announced festival appearances. Pallbearer commented:"We're excited to once again be heading over to Europe and the UK, and we might even be playing a handful songs from our catalogue that have never been performed outside of the US before!”

Last week, Pallbearer released a brand new track titled 'Dropout' - their first music released since their latest studio album, Heartless, back in early 2017. The track is the the 53rd installment of the Adult Swim Singles Program and the track will be available for download and streaming on April 27.

Heartless was recorded entirely to analogue tape at Fellowship Hall Sound, Little Rock, Arkansas between June and August 2016. The record was produced by Pallbearer, and mixed by acclaimed producer Joe Barresi (Tool, The Melvins, QOTSA, Fu Manchu). Engineering was handled by Jason Weinheimer and Zach Reeves, and mastered by Grammy winning mastering engineer Dave Collins (Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper and Soundgarden). 'Heartless' achieved widespread critical acclaim in 2017, landing countless impressive 'end of year list' scores such as the #1 'Best Metal Album' slots at The Quietus and Heavy Music HQ.
