GNAW THEIR TONGUES To
Issue Abyss Of Longing Throats Via Crucial Blast August 7th; "Through
Flesh" Playing At Decibel Magazine

Closing a three-year
gap between LPs, revolutionary industrial/black metal outfit, GNAW THEIR
TONGUES, will deploy its latest aural depravity upon the population with its
long-awaited new full-length album in early August, with some of the unit's most
engrossing material to date delivered through seven gut-wrenching new movements,
bearing the title, Abyss Of Longing Throats. The damaging second track
from the album, "Through Flesh" leeches onto humanity through an exclusive
premiere at Decibel Magazine.
Through nearly forty
titles released in less than a decade, GNAW THEIR TONGUES' richly
infamous works are created by the architect Mories, the same man responsible for
such acts as Aderlating, Cloak Of Altering, De Magia Veterum, Seirom and others.
Though the band has hardly been quiet in the interim, it's been a good three
years since the last full-length album from this Dutch nightmare machine. But
with new album Abyss Of Longing Throats, GNAW THEIR TONGUES has
returned in full ravenous glory, offering another hellish cacophony of mangled
industrial black metal, lurching deformed heaviness, twisted electronic carnage
and bombastic orchestral power that sounds like no one else.
From the frenzied
black swarms that sweep across the doom-laden death industrial of opener "Lick
The Poison From The Cave Walls" that eventually resolves into a glacial haze of
bleary, blasted bliss, to the hallucinatory black metal of "Through Flesh" that
fuses staccato violins, terrifying choral singing and grueling mechanical doom
to one of the most emotionally stirring sequences yet heard in the band's
catalog, Abyss Of Longing Throats continues to chart the evolution of
GNAW THEIR TONGUES' sound. There's plenty of the grueling industrialized
heaviness and violent orchestral sounds the band is known for, but this new
material also expands upon the filthy blackened doom at the heart of the act's
music with those moments of striking melodic power, moments where all the horror
surging through these songs suddenly transforms into something hauntingly
elegiac. Brief passages of tragic beauty, scattered throughout an abyss roiling
with relentless programmed blastbeats, somber chamber strings hovering
mournfully amid tortured shrieks, harsh clanking percussion and blasts of raging
orchestral chaos, all writhing together into another exhilarating descent into
total demonic delirium from this monstrous outfit.
Decibel Magazine
has deployed the first public lashing from GNAW THEIR TONGUES' Abyss Of
Longing Throats with "Through Flesh." Listen now at THIS
LOCATION.
Abyss Of Longing
Throats sees its revolting
debut through the outfit's cohorts at Crucial Blast on CD and digital platforms
on August 7th, 2015, followed by a vinyl pressing later in the year. Stand by
for further atrocities to be made very clear as the album rapidly
approaches.
Amidst the release of
their collaborations with Alkerdeel, the massive Collected Atrocities
2xCD album and more this year, Mories has taken GNAW THEIR TONGUES from a
studio-only entity, having performed as such high profile festivals as Roadburn
Festival, followed by its first American performances at Maryland Deathfest XIII
and Apex VI. The outfit returns to the US again later this year as it takes the
stage at the inaugural California Deathfest in Oakland alongside the likes of
Autopsy, Immolation, Infest, Dead Infection, Morbosidad, Despise You, Xibalba
and many others October 9th through 11th.
