Youtube: http://youtu.be/MpNxV-VE46Y 

About: The fourth release since 2007, ‘Fucktropolis’ is the follow up to the band’s 2012 release ‘The Oracle, What Was, Is And Could Have Been’ that received world wide praise from industry publications around the world along with their music video ‘This Burden of Life‘ added to rotation on Canada’s largest music channel Much Music, expanding their Canadian fan base dramatically.

Making their mark around the world for their aggressively dark brand of metal that is breaking the traditional ideals of their genre and drawing comparisons to bands like As I Lay Dying, All That Remains, Killswitch Engage, Lamb of God. All Else Fails infuses their music with a variety of elements that includes experimental, classical, synth lines, and spoken word sampling to accent a unique blend of heavy as hell screams and shiver inducing clean vocals.

Their high energy live show sets them apart from their peers and has garnered them appearances on numerous high level festivals over the years, including Van’s Warped tour, Boonstock and opening support slots for artists like Protest the Hero, Cancer Bats, Dayglo Abortions, 3 Inches of Blood, Fear Factory, Threat Signal, Decapitated, Suffocation, and Arise & Ruin.

TRIBUNE Post Tour Blog #3 For ‘CANADA SLAYS TOUR’ In Support of Author Inspired Concept Album ‘Tales’

    On the road for their ‘CANADA SLAYS TOUR’ in promotion of their latest release ‘Tales’, heavy metal brewers TRIBUNE have posted a new tour blog from their experience in Grande Prairie, AB and Edmonton, AB at the following link below. The tour kicked off in Kelowna, BC on April 3rd and has the band trekking as far East as Montreal, QC (April 19) to return West for the wrap up the tour in Nanaimo, BC on May 3rd.

This is Tribune‘s second cross Canada Tour since 2012, when they toured across the US and Canada in support of their previous release ‘Elder Lore/ The Dark Arts’.

Their concept album ‘Tales’ was released October 2013 via their indie label Corpse Corrosion Music and was inspired entirely by literature featuring a wide array of influences from Homer to Mary Shelley to H.P. Lovecraft, to more extreme musical influences such as Carcass, Death and At The Gates. The band’s appetite for more melodic and more brutally heavy sounds to follow-up 2011’s Elder Lore/The Dark Arts is demonstrated with their collusion of extremity and accessibility that bleeds into the melting pot and their fresh take of progressive death metal.

     Winnipeg’s death metal troopers Psychotic Gardening have teamed up with NoCleanSinging.com for the premiere of their latest track ‘Origin of The Infection’ from the band’s forthcoming album ‘Hymnosis’ set for release on May 13th to follow up 2011’s ‘Humanitorium’ and 2007’s debut ‘Hürdür’.

The band returns in 2014 with new material and the return of Chuck Labossiere after he filled in with Broken Hope for tour dates in Europe and Canada. The album features nine heavy hitting assaults sure to bang skulls with itsfull-throttle, go-for-the-throat execution of doom and black metal. In this release the band digs into its death metal roots for a concoction of their most vicious material while still hammering down on doom-laden monster riffs.

Highlight: #10 on Top 10 – For The Week Ending: Tuesday, July 8, 2014 – Canadian College Loud Charts – (Earshot)

“”Mordrake” should finally drive a stake through the heart of the idea that independent bands cannot produce records equalling those backed by labels. This band from Montreal has come up with an album that in every way equals something coming from Nuclear Blast, Metal Blade or Season of Mist.  That goes for artistic packaging, musical quality and just overall professionalism.” – Wormwood Chronicles

“Clad in black and painted in ghostly, skeletal white and gray, Montreal’s Hollow is one of North America’s most deceptively original and subversive underground metal acts today. Exploiting the surface aesthetics of black metal, the band surprises with an abundance of musical diversity and depth.” – Metal Underground

 “A primer on how extreme metal ought to sound: adventurous, expansive, daring, and heroic.” – Metal Underground

“Avec de grands moments flamboyants, la facette symphonique se veut puissante et hautement orchestrale avec des arrangements qui n’ont aucunement une sonorité à la bonne franquette. Le groupe monte aisément les chansons de façon à ce que l’auditeur puisse s’emporter aisément avec ce que le groupe tente de faire au niveau musical. Avec certains bris dans les structures, rien n’est déstabilisant par contre car le groupe explore dans bien des styles sans jamais nous perdre. Avec des structures musicales qui pataugent dans les mêmes flaques sanguines que Dimmu Borgir, Hollow impressionne. Les nombreuses variances au niveau de la présentation vocale sont intéressantes aussi. Le chanteur Jeff Mott peut passer du gras le plus infect aux tonitruances les plus périlleuses en plus d’y aller avec une voix claire que Mott garde excessivement convenable, sans tomber dans les clichés caramélés.” – Voir

“Les compositions sont éclatantes, encore une fois les influences de Dimmu Burger sont omniprésentes, ajoutée d’une touche du Children Of Bodom des beaux jours. Je dis ça parce que le travail du guitariste Dave “Cadaver” Gagné est digne des plus grands. Ses solos sont savoureux et ajoute au côté mélodique de la musique de Hollow.” Boulevard Brutal

“‘Mordrake’ is a superbly crafted album and an exciting listen, so much so I can’t even begin to imagine where these guys will go from here.” – Metal Talk

“…after one single spin of this album, you know what, this is good stuff! Hollow are a melodic black/death metal from Canada and man do they know how to craft tunes and build emotion into this European melodic black metal sounding release.” – Brutalism

“if I will need to choose an album that you can really call Metal album I will name “Mordrake” as one of them. This is a 52 minutes (almost 53) of a Metal storm that resembles a Blitzkrieg War; fast, no remorse and the only thing to do is kill them all. However in our case it’s to make real metal album with no inhibition and I think that HOLLOW did it. Rated Masterpiece” – Metal Temple

“Montreal’s Hollow are anything but. This is a truly solid and substantial piece of metal. Like a crowbar. Or a nail. Or some othersuch that will leave its mark on you. Check out Landscape on youtube. This band are so good they even have the road matching their corpse paint. Symphonic BM seamlessly weaving melodic DM. Clean vocals, choirs, straight ahead metal solos, thrash riffs. Whatever the songs needs it gets. All played with a level of musicianship set to frustrate many a cover attempt to come.” – Rock n Reel Reviews

“Mordrake is simply remarkable, one of the most promethean debuts in a long time and certainly within death metal this year, though Hollow have a sound and presence which you cannot confine to a single genre or singular mind-set. A brilliant album from a brilliant band” – Ring Master Review

“At first listen, I knew this band was a step ahead of the pack. These guys are tight as hell, and create an intense atmosphere with their brutal approach to metal…For only having one guitarist, they’ve certainly got the right one – this dude shreds!!! Hot damn. And of course, as for vocal delivery, you get it all on this album. Nice high black metal-eque screaming, demonic harmonies, and intense gutteral death metal growls.

All of these guys are above average musicians on their own, which is blatantly evident when listening to them play as a band. I would jump at the opportunity to see Hollow play live, and if they’re coming to play near you, I advise you do the same. But more importantly, if you’re a black metal fan, get yourself a copy of Mardrake when it comes out on May 30th.” – Counter Culture Nerd

“Hollow show a lot of versatility and excellent chops on a very promising debut effort.” – About.com Heavy Metal

“Hollow are serious about their corpsepaint and serious about their chops. LetMordrake be the proof in the pudding that these guys are not to be overlooked.” – Metal Bandcamp

“Mordrake is a pretty killer debut LP” – Emurg

“Mordrake par Hollow. Opus quintessencié annonçant un départ en force pour la formation de Montréal. Voilà ce que dégage le nouvel album de Hollow. Les douze pistes de cet enregistrement forment un tout et entraînent l’auditeur dans un univers à la fois sombre et fascinant. Ce premier album complet était fort anticipé et vaut son pesant d’or…. Que se soit la justesse, la production, la composition, l’ambiance générale, chacun peut y trouver son petit bonheur (pas trop, il faut rester grim) avec Mordrake. Avec une base et un nom très solides, Hollow fait déjà ses preuves et sait montrer qu’il ne peut que continuer d’évoluer pour le mieux. Procurez-vous l’album et allez voir une performance live du groupe; vous n’allez pas vouloir arrêter de les encourager!” – Musik Universe

“Hollow nous donne ici un album complet, très ambiancé, progressif, heavy et lourd mais à la fois mélodique et complexe.  Pour un première album, Hollow a mis la barre haute, voire même très haute, que ça sois du côté des ambiances ou des cœurs éparpiller ici et là dans toute les pièces de l’album ou bien de tous les instruments réunis, on as le droit ici a des compositions de haute qualité.” – Quebec Metal

“Orchestration majestueuse.  Un piano nous proposant une belle déferlante de notes.  Riff heavy speed et voix alternant le death et le black comme si Fleshgod Apocalypse avait laissé une trace de souffre de son passage sur le nouveau continent.  Break orchestral et solo de guitare très technique et rapide.  Ca décoiffe !” – Muzik Injection

Hailing from Montreal, QC, melodic death metal band Hollow has amassed quite the portfolio since its conception in 2009. Conquering audiences across Québec and Ontario, Hollow has became a household name that has showcased in front of industry giants such as Alex Skolnick (Testament), Blacky and Dan Mongrain (Voivod), Stephane Barbe (Kataklysm) and Mikey Heppner (Priestess) .

Their unique look and high-energy stage performances have permitted the band to take part in concerts and events such as Heavy MTL and Trois-Rivières Metalfest along with supporting acts such as VOÏVOD, SUFFOCATION, SWORD, JUNGLE ROT, IWRESTLEDABEARONCE, BLACKGUARD, THE AGONIST, BEYOND CREATION,  MARDUK, 1349, TYR, ORPHANED LAND, KEEP OF KALESSIN, SUIDAKRA, PSYCROPTIC, ABORTED, PATHOLOGY, AUGURY, etc.

Their first release, “Cynoptic Eschaton EP”, was released in 2010 to critical appraise from fans and media, securing them many shows and a short tour supporting Norwegian act EINHERJER during their first Canadian tour “Dragons Over Vinland”. In the following months, the band entered the studio to record their long-awaited first full-length entitled “MORDRAKE”.

The album features a unique analogue approach towards extreme metal: recorded without the use of any triggers, midi or copy/paste editing, the album features true-to-life performances that bring a breath of fresh air into an over-compressed and digital world. “MORDRAKE” was produced at Uplift Studios by Kevin Jardine (Slaves on Dope) and co-produced by Dan Lauzon (Entropy) and Hollow.
