California grindcore outfit Skullsmasher have signed with Selfmadegod Records and will be releasing their debut record Rocket Hammer Brain Surgery on March 29th via the label. The first single off the effort, “High Altitude Saturation Bombing”, is now streaming and can be heard exclusively via Decibel. The group issued the following statement:
“Grindcore is war. 21st Century warfare takes place in the digital realm where civilians are unceasingly saturated by propaganda. Our noise expression attempts to recreate the dissonance and chaos fought in the battlefield of minds.”
Rocket Hammer Brain Surgery was mastered at Audiosiege by Brad Boatright (Weekend Nachos, Nails, Magrudergrind, Wake, Tragedy), and features a cover of Repulsion’s “Festering Boils”. The effort is available for pre-order now via the label’s webstore and the group’s Bandcamp.
