Well, that didn’t take long. Yesterday we got the album title (Colored Sands), album art, release dates, and track list for the first studio album by Gorguts in 12 years. And now we have the album’s first single — “Forgotten Arrows”.
I don’t know what’s more impressive, what Luc Lemay and Kevin Hufnagel do with their guitars, what John Longstreth does with the drum-kit, or what Colin Marston does with the bass. Oh hell, why choose? It’s all striking.
And the song itself uses the top-shelf expertise of all four to deliver music that’s tremendously heavy, dark, and doomed. It has the impact of buildings collapsing, but it provides a good scrambling of the neurons as the same time. Tremendous stuff. Listen to it next:

I’m still getting familiar with Gorguts, but this definitely sounds promising. Look forward to hearing the whole album.
well worth the wait! i love it, and i want that t-shirt 🙂
Wow… just wow. This band is one of a kind.
reminds me Blut Aus Nord and Deathspell Omega. Very odd.
They sounded similar even before this, didn’t they?
Any release date known yet?
Ok, forget about it, I just came across your previous post where it’s all stated. Sorry.
No worries. Worth repeating anyway: Sept 3 in North America, Aug 30 everywhere else.
