GORGUTS<\/strong> 23 Mar 16 Oslo (NO) Inferno Festival GORGUTS<\/strong> will be touring in support of their critically highly acclaimed latest album ‘Colored Sands’, which is still available in various formats via the Season of Mist shop<\/a>. The album is streaming in its entirety on their Bandcamp page<\/a>.<\/p>\n 1. Le Toit du Monde GORGUTS<\/strong>, long-running Canadian craftsmen of technical death metal have returned! After more than a decade of silence, mastermind Luc Lemay unleashes “Colored Sands”, a new brand of pestilent fury featuring an all star line-up including John Longstreath (ORIGIN, SKINLESS), Colin Marston (BEHOLD THE ARCTOPUS) and Kevin Hufnagel (DYSRHYTHMIA). Few extreme bands have the pedigree of GORGUTS<\/strong>. During their early days as part of death metal’s first wave, they created a legacy of legendary releases including their debut album “Considered Dead” (1991) and its follow-up “Erosion of Sanity” (1993). The latter witnessed the Canadians becoming more experimental and technical. After a hiatus of five years, Luc Lemay returned with a new line-up, which released the acclaimed third full-length “Obscura” (1998). By then GORGUTS<\/strong> had fully transformed into one of the most progressive and influential bands in extreme music, which remained impervious to trends, while expanding and redefining the language of death metal. With a new line-up that left Lemay as the sole original member, another milestone album was released. On “From Wisdom to Hate” (2001) the Quebecois successfully merged the brutal and more direct approach of their earlier albums with the complex arrangements of “Obscura”. Just as GORGUTS<\/strong> seemed on the verge of making the first decade of the new century their own, the band was hit by business and personal issues and went on hiatus. Their musical legacy continued to inspire and thrive as their native Quebec became a focus for technical death metal with acts such as CRYPTOPSY, NEURAXIS and BEYOND CREATION to name but a few following in their footsteps. With “Colored Sands” these technical masters finally returned to deliver the stunning masterpiece that the world had long been waiting for.<\/p>\n Current line-up<\/strong> www.gorguts.com<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Critically-acclaimed death metal pioneers GORGUTS are bound for a headlining tour of Europe in March and April 2016!
