If anybody knows how to deliver a killer prog-metal track, it's Intronaut. I'm so excited for the band's upcoming new album, The Direction of LastThings, out November 13th via Century Media. It's their fifth studio album and if the lead single is any indication, they are showing no signs of slowing down.
The band premiered “Fast Worms” with our bros MetalSucks and it's a fantastic track:

See? Total prog ripper! You can surely hear this amazing track live when the band opens for Between the Buried and Me and Enslaved this fall. Get dates here.
Interestingly, the band decided to practice hard and then record the entire album in just four days. Frontman Sacha Dunable explains the philosophy:
We decided that we don’t need to spend three weeks in a studio obsessing over every minute nuance. The reality is that in that past, we’ve taken that approach, but then we go on tour and play all those songs tightly. So why not just write the songs, rehearse the hell out of them, and then just go play them in an awesome recording studio? Intronaut is an actual band who rehearses together regularly. We make up one collective musical brain. There’s no reason why we couldn’t just have someone set up some mics, hit record, and capture that. We ended up making our best sounding record in a third of the time.
Makes sense to me! Now gimme this new album!
