“…a bottom-heavy, cracked, ground-crawling rager dipped in mire and slime.” 
– The Portland Mercury


“STONEBURNER patiently weave through three chapters and sixty-four minutes of progressive dooming sludge metal without ever repeating themselves or scratching an itch so much that it bleeds.”
– HeavyPlanet


“Churning elements of sludge, doom and crust in a charred and emotionally charged study of turmoil, fearless self-examination and a determined drive to wring some genuine human essence from the modern-day vale of tears, Life Drawing is a daunting yet ultimately exhilarating album for anyone who believes that music should be as challenging and potentially transformative as life itself.” 
– Metal Hammer

CORRECTIONS HOUSE To Take Roadburn; Additional Live Abrasions Announced + Kuma’s Corner Burger Declared

CORRECTIONS HOUSE — the bastard sound manipulations of Mike IX Williams (Eyehategod), Scott Kelly (Neurosis), Bruce Lamont (Yakuza), Sanford Parker (Minsk) and their minister of propaganda, Seward Fairbury — are currently in Tilburg readying to trounce the main stage of Roadburn tomorrow. From there, they’ll traumatize Het Patronaat (also in Tilburg) before heading to the UK for their London debut with Consumer Electronics and Necro Deathmort.



The collective will be touting Writing History In Advance. Recorded live in Los Angeles in January of this year, the release features tracks from their Last City Zero debut andHoax The System 7” and will be available on LP in limited quantities at Roadburn.Writing History In Advance will be available on CD, LP and digitally via War Crime Recordings in North America. Stay tuned for further info.

In related live news, CORRECTIONS HOUSE will take over Three Floyds Brewing’s Dark Lord Day Festival in Munster, Indiana later this month with High on Fire, Eyehategod, Brain Tentacles, Iron Regan, and more as well as Roskilde Fest in Denmark in July.

But the mass CORRECTIONS HOUSE pandemonium doesn’t end there. Overcome by their scathing odes of emotional discontent and societal decline, legendary burger peddlers, Kuma’s Corner in conjunction with Dryhop Brewing, have forged a special CORRECTIONS HOUSE patty for all your meat-loving needs. the patty comes adorned with braised pork ribs, apple butter bbq, cheddar polenta, caramelized red onion and fresh arugula. Check out a photo below.

CORRECTIONS HOUSE Live 2014:
4/10/2014 013 Venue – Tilburg, NL
4/11/2014 Het Patronaat – Tilburg, NL
4/12/2014 Birthday’s – London, UK w/ Consumer Electronics, Necro Deathmort
4/26/2014 Three Floyds Dark Lord Day Festival – Munster, IN w/ High on Fire, Eyehategod, Brain Tentacles, Iron Regan, Witchbanger, more.
7/04/2014 Roskilde Festival – Roskilde, Denmark

CORRECTIONS HOUSE is a meeting of minds and ideologies that sees all four members incorporating their obvious individual talents and voices but simultaneously carving paths away from the sounds for which they are usually known. On Last City Zero, released last year via Neurot Recordings, they traverse tectonic plate-shifting doom and the downcast gloom of Kelly’s usual ouevre into mutated industrial hissing and clanging EBM beats from Parker, squalls and drones of oblique saxophone from Lamont and Williams’ familiar phlegm-drenched fire-spitting ire and all points in-between. Exclaim! in a 9/10 review, “Featuring dark, depressing atmospheres and exceptionally negative, apocalyptic vibes, Last City Zero is brooding, raw and corrosive, as well as breathtakingly beautiful,” while Crave agreed, CORRECTIONS HOUSE have created something wholly original, incredibly touching, and most likely alienating. Bravo gentlemen, bravo.” Added Metal Hammer, “Whether it’s Mike IX Williams’ grim spoken word poetry or Scott’s coarse, monotone groan overlaying the clangorous soundscapes, it’s the utter bleakness that binds.”

CORRECTIONS HOUSE is diligently penning the follow-up to Last City Zero with additional touring to be announced in the coming months. Until then, suffer.







STONEBURNER Bring The Dread With Life Drawing, Now Streaming In Full At Decibel; Release Day Draws Near

In celebration of its North American release now less than one week away, today the enablers at Decibel Magazine offer up a full stream of Life Drawing from Portland sludgesmiths, STONEBURNER.


Recorded, mixed and produced by Fester at Haywire Studios and mastered by Adam Gonsalves at Telegraph Mastering -- both in Portland – and featuring a glut of talented guest vocalists including Krysta Martinez (Transient, Landmine Marathon), Benjamin Caragol (Burials, Hang the Old Year) and Joshua Greene (Bastard Feast, Ephemeros), Life Drawing is a sonic tidal wave of sickness, disease, and soul-consuming dread, its nine distortion-laden odes at once loud, ugly and physically and psychologically crippling.

Comments the band, “In the time that we've spent creating this monster we've gotten very high, and fallen very low. We've spent days blinded by love and light, and more than a few nights wandering in the dark, raging at the stars. Over the last couple of years we've forged friendships, made enemies, hated our jobs, had loved ones die, seen each other through loss, and laughed at our failures. If you take the time to listen you’ll hear it all in there somewhere; as raw, ugly, and honest as we know how to be. And fuck it all anyways. This works better than therapy.”

Decibel Magazine, at THIS LOCATION.


STONEBURNER’s
musical ancestry winds through Buried At Sea, Buried Blood, Heathen Shrine and others. Named after a subterranean weapon from the novel Dune, the banddelivers a wholly organic orchestration of captivating, crustified doom metal, their torrid hymns bathed in internal agony, anguish and despair. To define STONEBURNER, one need only look to the list of bands with whom they’ve shared the stage: Yob, Sleep, Eyehategod, Neurosis, Buzzov-en, Weedeater, Saint Vitus, Watain, Tragedy, Noothgrush, Graves At Sea, Lord Dying, Drop Dead, Whitehorse, Windhand, Bastard Noise…




Life Drawing will be unveiled in North America via Neurot Recordings 

on April 15th, 2014 (April 14th in the UK/EU).

DARK BUDDHA RISING, Finland's Black Psychedelic Doom Practitioners, Sign to Neurot Recordings

Ritualistic doom band Dark Buddha Rising are Neurot Recording's latest captivating signees. Hailing from Finland and with four albums already under their belt (most recently 2013's Dakhmandal), Dark Buddha Rising are of the highest caliber. Their psychedelic sprawling space jams are made up of expansive yet concentrated bellows of decaying distortion and broken-signal analogue bleeps, cannoning across antimatter, presented with staggering finesse.


Dark Buddha Rising have this to say about their new home,"We are more than honoured to be a part of the Neurot family. Their music has torn wounds so deep, that they still bleed the black blood of inspiration. We share the profound principle towards music as necessity of our existence in this universe. To proceed into the last cycle of the Ennealogy with Neurot Recordings is a predestined path to spread the art of black psychedelia."

Neurot Recordings added..."Dark Buddha Rising are one of the darkest trance inducing bands I have ever witnessed. Neurosis was lucky enough to play several shows with them last year and each night I was completely hypnotized. This is true ritual music that should not be taken lightly. This is a deep, introspective conjuring of those aspects of ourselves that are uncomfortable to come face to face with, but necessary if we are to grow. We feel very lucky to be able to work with them on their next sonic rite."

Dark Buddha Rising will be touring Europe this April with Mr. Peter Hayden, hailed as 'The Archmandal tour', the dates are as follows:

19 April - Guss39, Bülach, Switzerland
20 April - Doomed Gatherings, Glazart, Paris, France
21 April  - Little Devil, Tilburg, Netherlands
22 April  - Hühnermanhattan, Halle, Germany
23 April  - Crass Pub, Chemnitz, Germany
24 April  - TBA, Magdeburg, Germany
25 April  - Stengade, Copenhagen, Denmark
26 April  - Püssy a Go Go, The Liffey, Stockholm, Sweden
---
5 July - Roskilde Festival, Denmark



More news about Dark Buddha Rising will follow in the coming month.
