NEUROSIS To Perform Exclusive East Coast Show At NecronomiCon In Providence This Weekend

Fresh off their recent two-pronged European tour, NEUROSIS will congregate at a one-off performance in Providence, Rhode Island this Saturday, August 24th.

This special ceremony has been arranged as part of the city-wide NecronomiCon -- a four-day convention exploring the works of H.P. Lovecraft and other past and present writers as an exploration of the intersection of science and art that lays at the foundation of the "Cthulhu Mythos" genre. NEUROSIS will take the stage at Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel to perform a massive set as part of the festivities, with support from avant/crushing solo act LUSTMORD. The early show open with the 45-minute silent film, "The Call of Cthulhu," about the Strand Theater -- now Lupo's -- and how it was Lovecraft's favorite movie theater to attend.

Since 1985 NEUROSIS surpassed the boundaries of any genre, never ceasing to mutate and progress their songwriting and sonic delivery, and never failing to mesmerize audiences both in the studio and onstage. In 2012 the unit released their monumental tenth studio album, Honor Found In Decay, which went on to receive countless plaudits from the press on a global scale, and was positioned highly in end of year polls, as always reaffirming why NEUROSIS remains one of the most significant heavy acts in existence.

Witness an array of live footage collected over the ongoing tour cycle for Honor Found In Decay HERE.

"Those who prefer their epics harrowing, their atmospheres apocalyptic and their metaphorical gut punches landed squarely on the emotional solar plexus will not be disappointed." - Decibel

"For 27 years, the members of Neurosis have demonstrated what metal can be and what it can aspire to: transcendent, cathartic, graceful, innovative." - National Public Radio

"...officially upped the ante for all the post-metal bands who ought to be paying these guys royalties for their patent on psychedelic purgation..." - Spin

"Another spiritual journey into the very heart of mankind. Completely and utterly mind-blowing." - Metal Hammer

"The most stunning aspects of Honor Found In Decay come from Neurosis' grasp of dynamics...as ever, in the hands of these uncompromising sorcerers, true heaviness can be as much about the directness as disorientation, and as much about the sinister rumble as an unearthly roar. 5/5" - Terrorizer

"...doesn't abandon the moody sprawl of the band's last few full-lengths, but it does help restore urgency to an aesthetic that seemed in danger of growing soporific... It's a record that proves these grizzled artisans still know how to flex their muscles." - Pitchfork

CORRECTIONS HOUSE: New Track Now Playing At Vice/Noisey; Debut Full-Length To Drop This Fall

CORRECTIONS HOUSE have opened up their doors ever so briefly, permitting us
entry for a four-minute tour of their haunting abode under the supervision of our guide,
Vice/Noisey (Germany), who are streaming "Run Through The Night" at
THIS LOCATION.

 

A mournful tide of bleak instrumentation swollen with angst-ridden acoustic guitar, ceremonial horns and an underlying serration of electronic fuzz which eventually bursts open in to an unfazed and understated procession of black metal and spoken word, "Run Through The Night" is the fourth track from CORRECTIONS HOUSE's forthcoming studio album, Last City Zero.

CORRECTIONS HOUSE is the collective musical extractions of Mike IX Williams (Eyehategod), Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Bruce Lamont (Yakuza), Sanford Parker (Minsk) and their minister of propaganda, Seward Fairbury. The eight-track, near 50-minute Last City Zero was produced by Parker at Electrical Audio, Soma Studios, 60 Psycho Hum and Nodferatu's Lair, and delivers a wholly cerebral, impossible-to-pinpoint kaleidoscopic synthesis of mechanical decomposition, atmospheric abnormalities, and poetic putrefaction.

Forged unwittingly by the impetuous forces of nature and altered states of consciousness,

CORRECTIONS HOUSE is without control of their destiny. Boundless in their genre voyage, they embrace the unkind, the diseased, the forgotten, the morose, their lush anti-soundscrapes and shadowy verses -- at once beautifully hideous, graceful and terrifying -- a manifestation of societal ruin and psychological decay.

The transformation of time and space; death begetting life and veils being torn; an imposing dissonance too penetrating to dismiss... CORRECTIONS HOUSE systematically creates and destroys through audio disease and transcendent musical deconstruction.

All things in all ways. There is nothing else.

Last City Zero will be released in North America on October 29, 2013 via Neurot Recordings.

CORRECTIONS HOUSE: Exclusive Track Premiere Now Playing At Pitchfork

Today the musical miscreants at Pitchfork offer up the first sampling of Last City Zero, the forthcoming debut full-length from recent Neurot Recordings signees, CORRECTIONS HOUSE. A shadowy legion of lost souls, fused together by the impulsive forces of nature and altered states of consciousness, CORRECTIONS HOUSE is the maniacal creation of Mike IX Williams (Eyehategod), Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Bruce Lamont (Yakuza), Sanford Parker (Minsk) and their minister of propaganda, Seward Fairbury. Produced by Parker at Electrical Audio, Soma Studios, 60 Psycho Hum and Nodferatu’s Lair, Last City Zero offers up eight psychologically alarming hymns that span well beyond the traditional confines of sound. At once cold, mechanical, prosaic and pungent, Last City Zero is a full body experience rather than a casual listen.

In celebration of its impending release, Pitchfork is currently streaming opening track “Serve or Survive,” which they call “every bit as strange and unwieldy as its membership might suggest. ‘Serve or Survive’ opens as an oblong bed of noise, the circuits of producer Sanford Parker, struggle to catch their breath while Bruce Lamont broadcasts whale song by saxophone. Above the gray drift, Neurosis’ Scott Kelly intones his familiar doom.”

Comments Fairbury of the tune: “How can the choice be any clearer? The less Serving you do, the more chance you have to Survive. Serving is rarely a positive experience and Surviving, although a victory of sorts, is truly the most basic form of existence. Either way, you’re fucked.”

Make a choice.

CORRECTIONS HOUSE embrace the worthless, the diseased, the forgotten, their sprawling anti-soundscrapes and acidic verses — at once beautifully hideous, graceful and terrifying — a manifestation of societal ruin and psychological decay.
