The instrumental Doom duo of guitarist Erik Ogershok and Adrian Voorhies (Humut Tabal) will release sophomore album The Desert Winter on August 19. The CD version will be available in a gorgeous 6-panel format.
Consisting of the undeniably epic 37-minute title track of blackened doom, The Desert Winter is a journey deep into the psyche. Listeners are strongly advised to clear out all head space (and any earwax) and settle in for this existential Ride of the Doomed!
Recorded at WoodenHorse studios October 2016
Mixed and Produced by Zawicizuz and Canyon of the Skull
Mastered by Proscriptor McGovern (Russ R. Givens) at Nox Luna Inlustris Music
Artwork Layout and design by Erik Bredthauer
Adrian Voorhies- Drums, Percussion
Erik Ogershok- Guitars, Bass, Percussion
BIO
The brainchild of Erik Ogershok, COTS was initially manifested in the winter of 2006. Several local appearances and lineup fluctuations later, life happened, and the project lay dormant. 2014 saw the return of Ogershok as he recruited new musical personnel in the form of drummer Adrian Voorhies of the Austin-based Black Metal outfit HUMUT TABAL and once more brought the doom ensemble to life to melt the faces of all who sought shade in the Canyon walls.
After numerous regional gigs both opening for touring colleagues and spearheading an array of craft beer events and festival slots (including two SXSW appearances), the band closed the year with a blistering performance at the End of the World Fest in Houston alongside Austin brethren The Sword and Eagle Claw. 2015 saw the creation of the band's first recording, a self-titled EP solidifying the now scaled down duo of Ogershok and Voorhies as a force to be reckoned with in the Texas doom scene.
With the EP capturing some attention, they embarked on a two-week tour of the Midwest, bringing their signature brand of instrumental doom from the Twin Cities to Louisville. Once home, the band commenced production on their most ambitious musical effort yet with rare selected live performances across the lone star state. In October, they headed back into Wooden Horse studios with an A-list production team of Zawicizuz (The Black Moriah) and Proscriptor McGovern (Absu) and their sophomore offering was forged. Now, as the band prepares to release The Desert Winter, only one message can truly be counted on: Abandon All Hope.

Somewhere between a holy vision and an overdose is 1818, a South Central Pennsylvania band birthed from metal, rock, and ethereal vibes. They've played, and fit nicely, with modern cover, grudge, hardcore, extreme, biker, doom, rock, industrial, and punk acts, finding their niche somewhere in the middle of this sonic landscape.
Since establishing in May of 2015 they have shared the stage with national acts Flaw, Sevendust, Trivium, Born of Osris, Upon a Burning Body, Otep, Doll Skin, After the Burial, Tantric, Blameshift, Like a Storm, and more as well as countless local and regional acts and joined the Coldcock Whiskey family through endorsement.
The Hiraeth EP was originally released in September of 2016 and reissued by Pavement on June 2, 2017, and has been in regular rotation on Internet radio, including Extreme Metal Worx, The Jay Stone Show, Twisters Music, Real Radio Chaos and others.
1818 is quickly garnering a following playing PA, MD, WV, and VA venues. Their live shows move and entice you and bring you on a journey though parts of your psyche once thought dead and gone through years of regression therapy.

MADROST returns with a new full-length album titled The Essence of Time Matches No Flesh on June 27! Featuring seven tracks of Orange County's finest Progressive Thrash Metal from one of the scene's most sci-fi bands! This is 37 minutes of total devastation and chaos, makes this the only album to truly bake your brain!
On The Essence of Time Matches No Flesh, MADROST has found its definitive sound, one that is much more dynamic and darker than previous album Into the Aquatic Sector. The forthcoming album picks up where Into the Aquatic Sector left off and takes the sound to a whole new, previously unexplored level. Vocalist/guitarist Tanner Poppitt comments: "I wanted a broader scope to work with and have the listener think about what they are listening to." Last but certainly not least, Tony Koehl's (The Black Dahlia Murder, Putrid Pile, Malignancy, etc) cover art also represents a huge step forward for the band, as his artistic interpretations tie everything together into a cohesive whole.
The Essence of Time Matches No Flesh was mastered by Alan Douches of West West Side Studios, and mixed and recorded by Mark Rivas of Rivas Studios. The album was produced by Mark Rivas and Tanner Poppitt.
A lyric video for the album's opening track, "Eyes of the Deceit," is available for head banging at
