Today the first single from the new COLONIAL WOUND full-length "Easy Laugh" makes it's debut via Axe To Grind Podcast! You can check out "Altar Of Youth" through thee (yes, 'thee') hardcore podcast, and then swing over to the Hex Records bandcamp to pre-order the record.
As you can see above, there's a few different versions to choose from so go to the store to check them out.
Digital and CD versions will be out on 12/9/22 with vinyl expected to ship by February. So what are you waiting for?
Colonial Wound began in 2018 by bassist/vocalist Dylan Mikos (also of Good Fight Music heavy-hitters Yashira), drummer John Edwards (touring drummer for Kylesa), and guitarist Ben Clifton. While they had a healthy scene of heavy music in and around their home of Jacksonville, FL to inspire and provide camaraderie Colonial Wound was aiming to do something noisier, uglier, and more disturbing.
The initial result was an EP that was self-released digitally before Detroit-area label Dropping Bombs pressed it onto 12” introducing a sound that had as much to do with crushing grooves a la Coalesce as it did the off-kilter guitar antics and wall-of-noise heaviness of groups like Engineer and Botch, combining lumbering hardcore and noise rock into a singular sludgy entity.
Not too long after the band added vocalist Jeremy Atkins to the lineup, making the group a 4-piece and they released another EP, “Degradation” on the New Morality label showing off their revised lineup. The music remained just as heavy and punishing while further showing off the band’s creative side with a photo zine accompanying the record (the first 12” featured a silkscreened B-side).
And now comes their debut full-length “Easy Laugh”, coming this winter on Hex Records. They lay down 9 tracks of immediate, crushing heaviness, full of the sludgy metallic noise rock that turned heads on their two EPs and now forged to perfection here. In less than a half-hour they deliver the goods with one relentless hammering after another.
