Who releases full albums anymore? Split 7" are all the rage, and Converge have just announced a new split they'll be putting out in the near future with grind godfathers Naplam Death. No release date has been announced yet, but it sounds ridiculous. Napalm's contribution will come in the form of two new tracks, "Will By Mouth" and "No Impediment To Triumph (Bhopal)". For their part, Converge will be including "No Light Escapes," the new track they have been performing live and a cover of Entombed's classic, "Wolverine Blues" featuring this ridiculous all star lineup:
Tomas Lindberg (Disfear, At The Gates, Lock Up),
Aaron Turner (Isis, Old Man Gloom, Split Cranium),
Kevin Baker (APMD, The Hope Conspiracy),
Brian Izzi (Trap Them)
The official Deathwish press release promises more names on the "We Are the World" style rendition of "Wolverine Blues." I'm assuming all of these were gathered at various recording sessions by Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou, who had Aaron Turner in for Old Man Gloom sessions, and Tomas Lindberg was photographed hanging out with Converge a few months back, so now we know why.
To say I am really excited for this is a huge understatement. I am also excited to hear a FULL new Converge record, All We Love We Leave Behind. Can we get that soon, please?
