The long awaited new studio album "Lividity" from IT DIES TODAY is now officially set for a September 15, 2009 street date! We here at Trustkill couldn't be more excited to finally release this album.
Singer Jason Wood checked in to say, "We're really pumped about this new record and finally releasing it for our fans! This week Mike Hatalak (producer/guitarist) is in final mix sessions for the album and we have also finished several cover songs including a cover of Duran Duran's "Come Undone" as well as Alice In Chains "Them Bones". We know alot of fans are curious about the delays with this new album, but we assure you, if we could have gotten it to you sooner we would have! We have had so many problems with the studio we build to record this album. After spending close to $12,000 on building a completely enclosed soundproofed studio in the house that Mike (Hatalak) and I lived in and spending over 2 months finishing pre-production and tracking, our efforts were thwarted with a forced move out of the house. That move forced us to tear down our entire studio (salvaging about $2,000 of materials) within a holiday weekend. So we moved to a new house and rebuilt the studio and are now finally finishing all mixes. I'm looking forward to hearing reactions from our fans and foes and hopefully this album will make up for the long wait!".
Look for the band to announce a US headline tour kicking off in September, and a European/UK tour to kick off in November.
Pre-Order packages and new merch will be available at the band's new webstore here:

“Heads straight for the adrenal gland before unleashing an unexpectedly melodic chorus… what follows pretty much ploughs the same furrow. They really do know how to wield a killer riff and supercharge their melodies, making them impossible to ignore.” - Kerrang!

Long Island's SOLDIERS are feverishly writing for their follow up album to 2008's "End Of Days". Singer and songwriter Rick Jiminez checked in with Trustkill to say, "We've had some time this spring and summer between the activity of all of our other bands and started writing some new shit. It's been a while since we had written and released "End Of Days" so we approached this from a totally refreshed perspective. The stuff is still as pissed and frustrated as ever."
Speaking more specifically on some new songs, Rick said, "The past year and a half have built up quite a bit of cynicism and rage in me and the music also reflects that. "Black Scar" is a new song that switches the perspective of how I usually approach a song. Instead of focusing my attention towards how I observe others and their actions, I've used the song to express what I've become because of the filth I see and am sometimes forced to be surrounded by."
Look for new music and new merch this summer! Also check out some great pics of SOLDIERS from this year's New England Metalfest courtesy of Return To The Pit.
Myspace Music will premiere the new video from BLEEDING THROUGH for the song "Germany". Get ready to see the video on Tuesday, May 19. Produced by Ignore Entertainment it showcases some of the dark themes of the song.
The band is finishing up their co-headline tour of Europe with Darkest Hour this week with shows in the UK and Germany, and just added some dates in Mexico for July.
We have a bunch of CDs on sale for only $5 (yes, five dollars!) over at RevHQ, check em out here. Titles include Eighteen Visions, Walls Of Jericho, Most Precious Blood, Too Pure To Die, and plenty more. Don't miss out! CDs will go back to regular price very soon.
The debut album "Sleepwalking" from Memphis May Fire will be available everywhere July 21, 2009! The Dallas boys wrapped up in the studio with producer Casey Bates (Chiodos, A Skylit Drive) and are ready to hit the road. Make room on your "Best of 2009" lists for "Sleepwalking", and stay tuned for tour announcements.
Singer Matt Mullins checked in from the studio to say, "Sleepwalking is a new breed of rock n' roll. We wanted to have an honest lyrical message but also tell people that there is still hope in this crazy world, and that there is more than just the here and now. Our fans will notice that music wise, it's much more aggressive guitar work and noticeably more melodic, but still retains that southern swagger. We are very proud of this record and we are sure both old and new fans will love it."
The final track listing for "Sleepwalking" is:
01.) North Atlantic VS North Carolina
02.) A Giant In a Giants World
03.) Your Lucky Its Not 1692
04.) Ghost In The Mirror
05.) Been There, Done that
06.) Quantity Is Their Quality
07.) Sleepwalking
08.) Destiny For The Willing
09.) The Face With No Name
10.) Speak Now I'm Listening

Trustkill is proud to announce a worldwide deal with AWAKEN DEMONS from Italy! Hailing from beautiful Cesena, Italy, they just recorded their brand new album 'THE MIRROR', due out this coming summer on Trustkill. The album is 10 songs of pure aggression, and features guest vocals from Vincent Bennet (The Acacia Strain) and Karl Buechner (Earth Crisis).
In 2007 they released their debut album "From Heaven To Hell" through Seventh Dagger and subsequently invaded the US with their friends xAFBx and Rhinoceros. They have spent the better part of 2008 writing their next album and hitting the stage with First Blood, Full Blown Chaos, Agnostic Front, Evergreen Terrace, Sworn Enemy, Ringworm, A Day To Remember, and more.
Speaking on the signing, bassist Nicola Lelli said, "We've always been huge Trustkill fans, since the late 90s. Trustkill was a dream for us and when Josh contacted us, we couldn't believe it. Being the first Italian band on the roster is definitely a huge step for us. Thanks a lot to Josh and the Trustkill crew, we are honored be part of this family."
In 2009 they have lined up shows with Madball and will play the Open Air Festival, as well as shows in Germany, Belgium, and Holland. More shows to be announced soon.
