DETERIOR

It's 2020. I hope everyone is doing well. Things are a little nuts out there. I have two cool things to talk about today. Althought the blog has been quiet, Deterior has been busy. First: Deterior is starting to get onto other streaming services (besides Bandcamp). We're piloting the new distribution stuff with last year's album Ring This Broken Bell . It's now available in the following locations: Apple Music Amazon Music Bandcamp Spotify YouTube Secondly: The new album is getting close to done. I've had a little extra time these last few months to buckle down and really get to work on some new music. Progress on the new album is going very well. Instruments are recorded and the mix is getting pretty solidified. In fact, the only major piece left to do is record vocals and finish the mix and master. If we can get that wrapped up this month, I foresee the album coming out before the end of the summer. The new album will also be available o...

Ring This Broken Bell by Deterior The first Deterior album in four and a half years. It's been a long road to Ring This Broken Bell , and I'd like to thank everyone still here for sticking around to see it come out. It's been a bit of a personal struggle for me to finish, but I'm glad it's done, and I hope it was worth it for all of you.

It's time. I've spent too long sitting on Ring This Broken Bell . Official release is February 19. You can check out the preview on the Bandcamp page . Tracklist: I Woke Up and All of Us Were Crying (9:56) To Defy and Dissent (7:21) We March as Ghosts (7:58) Ring This Broken Bell (10:12) A Hole Where the Sun Used to Be (10:19) As usual, another drastic shift in sound and style, this time hearking more back to ye olde instrumental post-rock Deterior, but more polished and refined (at least I like to think so).

Hello friends. It's been a while. It's been the usual life-getting-in-the-way excuse I always make, but rest assured (if you were curious) that Deterior is not dead. Instead I've been finding other creative (non-musical) outlets and there's been more real-life stuff going on for me lately. Despite that, new Deterior music has actually been in the works for the last four-ish years, believe it or not. I've been working off-and-on with an album's worth of material that has actually been pretty close to being finished for a long time; it's just a matter of final polishing and a couple more recording sessions to wrap things up (vocals and horn—that will be exciting, if it works out). No more black metal this time; I've been playing around with some old styles (and new as well). It is going well, I think. It would be nice to get it finished and released this year, although I've been telling myself that for about two years now. Maybe getting this post ou...
