A couple of interesting, heavy duos are currently streaming new music. Dig it:
Belgian black metallers Enthroned are streaming their entire upcoming album, Sovereigns, over on Loudwire. The album will be in stores on April 15, but preorders are now available on iTunes and via Agonia Records. Sovereigns will be Enthroned's 10 studio album, spanning a 20 year career. It's not a total blastbeat fest for those of you who, like me, prefer a little bit of variation in your black metal. Check it out. French stoner/psych rockers Aqua Nebula Oscillator are prepared to embark on their first ever U.S. tour this month, touring in support of their latest release, Spiritus Mundi. Aqua Nebula Oscillator have been described as stoner rock with occult overtones and shadowy landscapes of grim sound. If that doesn't get you fired up, I think you're reading the wrong blog. And hey, look here...there's even a Cincinnati stop on the tour. Score one for the Queen City! There's a track from the new record currently streaming on Revolver, if you're interested.

While we're still light years behind Europe and their fancy Wacken, Bloodstock, Roadburn, etc., I think we're on the right track here in the States. Another festival has now been announced for this summer, the inaugural Southern Darkness Festival, which will take place on Saturday, August 23 in Tampa, FL. The lineup is pretty strong so far, featuring Pelican, Lord Mantis and Black Tusk, among others, with more bands still to be announced. Tickets will go on sale shortly, and you can keep tabs on the festival at their official facebook page. Confirmed lineup, so far, for Southern Darkness Fest 2014: Pelican All Pigs Must Die Maruta Centuries Sannhet Mouth of the Architect Black Tusk Jungbluth Yautja Order of the Owl A Storm of Light Phobia Strong Intention Zoroaster Everything Went Black Weekend Nachos Lord Mantis Coke Bust ASG Junius Set and Setting Traitor Crucifix Cosm Old school east coast doomsters Sourvein have announced a split LP release with Portland sludgelords Graves at Sea, to be released May 13 on Seventh Rule records. The Sourvein tracks were recorded by Mike Dean of CoC and Vista Chino fame, while the Graves at Sea tunes were recorded by Billy Anderson, who has worked with Sleep and Neurosis. That should give you some idea of the sheer heaviness involved here. Revolver is currently streaming one of the Sourvein tracks here, but so far I'm not aware of any available Graves at Sea tracks from this release. To preorder a CD or limited edition vinyl, check out Seventh Rule. In additional news, the two bands begin a trek across Europe today, starting with the Roadburn Festival.
