GIANT OF THE MOUNTAIN are pleased to announce that they will be releasing their new EP The Empty Quarter on May 27 2016. The band's blend of black and death metal has been widely hailed by the metal press in the past with Decibel Magazine describing the band's sound as "early Mastodon dressed up as Skeletonwitch with occasional forays into sweaty, gusty Americana a la USX or Across Tundras." The new EP takes the sound from their previous albums to the next level with improved production and song writing resulting in the band's best recordings to date.
The band commented on the EP ""We have worked harder and longer on our new release, The Empty Quarter, than anything weve done so far. Its without a doubt the most mature, energetic release weve conjured."
In addition to releasing The Empty Quarter, the band will embark on a tour of the East US with their friends in Krigsgrav. All tour dates can be found below. Guest list spots are available upon request.
