ASG, the North Carolina quartet whose music Revolver described as a “compelling mix of sludge, skatepunk, and ‘90s alt-metal,” share cover art, track listing, and audio from their forthcoming full-length Blood Drive (May 28, Relapse).
“Days Work,” a new song from the 12-track release, which was produced by Matt Hyde (Slayer, Fu Manchu), is previewed in the album trailer above. Pre-orders for the CD/2xLP/Digital are available now via Relapse. In a way, it reminds me of the indie band Middle Class Rut, only, you know, heavier.
The cover art was created by Malleus, an Italian trio who have created artwork for The Flaming Lips, High On Fire, Swans and Ufomammut.
