Tombs: "To Cross The Land"

1:03 p.m. · May 9, 2011 · by Erik Ziedses des Plantes

Brooklyn metal trio Tombs have unleashed an absolutely ripping new track from their upcoming album Path Of Totality, due out June 7 via Relapse. "To Cross The Land" starts out with a spare and ringing guitar figure from leader Mike Hill, which builds and eventually explodes into an almost black metal-like frenzy. Some chunky riffage pops up later in the track, allowing listeners moments to breathe as the track drags itself to its end. Give it a listen over at Stereogum.
