Artist: Cmn ineed yr hlp
Album: It Came Without Warning​.​.​.​As Most Disasters Do
Genre: Post-rock, Progressive
Label: Unsigned
Year: 2013
From : Chicago, US

Tracklist
01. 175 feet is a lot of water (Especially when you're under it) 05:28
02. Without a sail in view 04:35
03. The prognostication is murder 04:34
04. The face of disaster 04:26
05. Cold, airless, forbidding 04:35

Now in their sixth year, Cmn ineed yr hlp continues to be ambitious, pretentious, and self-aware enough to poke fun at themselves about these characteristics (as well as their beloved, yet much-maligned band name). Jose Rosales (guitar), Ian Gegenheimer (drums) and Mark Oster (bass) started composing their second record together more than three years ago, and with the help of Matt Engstrom (recording and mixing) and Gary Yek (mastering), have finally brought it to fruition.
It Came Without Warning...As Most Disasters Do saw digital release in July and the band is now hoping to create a physical version of the EP through Cleveland's Gotta Groove Records' groundbreaking in-house crowdfunding portal GottaGrooveBot.

Anathema - Internal Landscapes

Anathema will return in April with Weather Systems, their brand new studio album. Weather Systems is the follow-up to 2010’s We're Here Because We're Here. That album featured prominently in numerous end-of-year polls and the producer, Steven Wilson (Porcupine Tree), has described it as 'definitely among the best albums I’ve ever had the pleasure to work on.'

The bar for Weather Systems has been set pretty high then but Daniel is certain that the album will exceed these lofty expectations, ‘it feels like we are at a creative peak right now, and this album reflects that. Everything from the production to the writing to the performances are a step up from our last album.’

He continues, ‘This is not background music for parties. The music is written to deeply move the listener, to uplift or take the listener to the coldest depths of the soul.’

This album will please fans who call for more of Lee Douglas’s vocals, as her role within Anathema’s brand of alternative, melodic rock has matured to become an integral energy. In this way and more, Weather Systems is the sound of a band finding their voice and growing in stature, moving further along their artistic path with a truly stunning musical vision.

Weather Systems available on Kscope.
