Atmosphere and more, news Friday 27th Feb

It’s a Friday and good news abounds; firstly, Napalm Death and Carcass have announced a second Valhalla show, and I am pretty fucking jealous, so if you missed out on the first sold out show don’t be a fool a second time and get your damn tickets asap!

I just had a listen to the seriously fucking beautiful sneak peek for the upcoming CVLT NATION Sessions compilation of Joy Divsion’s CLOSER. The preview is the bonus track for the album, featuring a haunting and beautiful version of that hauntingly beautiful song ‘Atmosphere’, and man does Scott Kelly (Neurosis, MIRRORS FOR PSYCHIC WARFARE) do it justice. If  this is the quality to come I am truly fucking excited. I will be keeping a close eye on this wee project, and update as I hear more.
