Out ov the Coffin: PODCAST: June 30th, 2011

This week's show brought us new music from Zola Jesus, considered by many to be one of the greatest finds in dark independent music in the last couple of years. With a set of pipes like hers, I'd have to agree. The song "Vessel" was made available for download this week, as a teaser for her forthcoming album, "Conatus," which is set for release on October 4th. If you're curious about the album's title, as I was, you can find more on its meaning here.

Both Imperative Reaction and God Module also released new singles this week. Imperative Reaction gave us "Surface," whose release was coupled with a brand new video, directed by Chad Michael Ward. The forthcoming Imperative Reaction album (due 9/13/2011) will be self-titled. God Module's new single, "Ritual," is a taste of what's to come from their next album, "Séance," which will also be released on September 13th. The two bands are said to be mounting a tour for the fall, along with fellow Metropolis Records artist (and bandmate in both acts) System Syn.

We also went a bit deeper into the latest release from Haujobb this week, exploring the track "Letting the Demons Sleep (Nightmare)," from their new EP, "Dead Market." You can check out all of the above (and even more) fresh music, as well as plenty of classics and obscurities, by downloading the full episode below.
