Upcoming Bullshit

IF THE MUSIC ON SON OF AURELIUS’ THE FARTHEST REACHES IS AS AWESOME AS THE COVER ART…

…then it’s gonna be one of the awesomer releases of the spring. Check it out:

Holy shit, I love that. It’s just as awesome as the cover art for the band’s previous release, Myocardial Infraction, which has been a cornerstone of my own personal rotation ever since reader Parker Werley recommended the band to us back in January.

The Farthest Reaches comes out April 13 on the newly-formed Good Fight Music, and was produced by Zack Ohren. Ohren has produced, mixed, and/or mastered such albums as Suffocation’s Blood Oath, Decrepit Birth’s Diminishing Between Worlds, Arsonists Get All the Girls’ The Game of Life, and all three releases by All Shall Perish, so his involvement can only be a good thing.

I can’t fucking wait to hear this record. If you’re still not familiar with Son of Aurelius, get off your ass and check out their MySpace page.

    I knew these guys would be badass if they ever got their shit together. Looks like they did!

    Interesting little history on their band:

    this art sucks – too scattered and cartoony

    I will however withhold judgment on the band until I hear their tunes.

  • SonOF

    This art looks cool to me, checking out the band now.

    Anyone know were I can get my hands on Myocardial Infarction?

    Hah. Spencer grew up down the street from me. Seriously, he and my younger brother used to play Pokemon cards together. It was gnarly to see that he’s now super tall and rocking it on drums, hell my brother and I caught up with him during that Devin Townsend/Cynic concert (seriously, that’s all that it was in my eyes), and he’s still the same ol’ nice kid.

    Keep on rocking it.

    I don’t think they ever officially released Myocardial Infarction but you can definitely get your hands on it (and you wont feel guilty after you buy The Farthest Reaches!)

      Is it a torrent then?

    Wow i got into this band literally like 2 days ago. They are fucking awesome. Cant wait for this cd.

  • Chris D.

    Thanks for bringing my attention to these guys, MetalSucks! This is probably the most awesome band I’ve heard since IWABO or the Faceless.

    the artwork is indeed the shit, and the band is definitely kick ass.
