KEN mode have signed with Season Of Mist and will release their new album “Entrench” through the label on March 19th (March 15th in Europe). A vinyl pressing of the effort, which was recorded with Matt Bayles (Mastodon, Isis), will follow at a later date.
Speaking on their new label home, KEN mode issued the following collective statement:
“The only logical way to follow up on the success of our previous album “Venerable“, was to put our noses to the grindstone and top that record in every way possible. With ‘Entrench‘, we are convinced we have accomplished this. ‘Entrench‘ is our most collaborative effort, and the most creative and sonically diverse album of our entire career.
‘Entrench‘ sees us expand in both our handling of dynamics and general song and album craftsmanship; utilizing piano, keyboards, and strings to build on the classic power trio format. For this album, we have also enlisted guest vocal contributions from Dave Verellen (Narrows, ex-Botch) and former Deadguy/Kiss It Goodbye vocalist Tim Singer. Both of them add another layer of icing to the metallic-hardcore-noise-rock-whatever-core cake we’ve baked.”
