Out this week (Tuesday, May 13th) ,Winnipeg, MB’s Psychotic Gardening unleash their new album ‘Hymnosis’, a forging of nine skull crushing tracks rooted in death with blended elements of doom and black metal to follow up the band’s 2011 ‘Humanitorium’ and 2007 debut ‘Hürdür’. Available on iTunes, Bandcamp and CD Baby, the release is a vicious sound and production that includes the return of Chuck Labossiere who filled in with Broken Hope for tour dates in Europe and Canada last year.
“I feel that we have an incredible album under our belts at the moment, it is a roller coaster of beatings that we want to share with the open minded sort, we really kicked everything up a good notch or two for this album, in terms of better gear, better knowledge of that said gear, plus I got to record all the drum tracks in my personal studio at my house, which really took a lot of the stress out of the process. We knew we were coming up with some strong shit and we wanted it to sound on par with our expectations, (and we feel that it does). I gotta say for myself my favorite song on the album has gotta be “Searing Cital” it’s just so damn brutal! The louder it is the meaner it sounds too! Seeing the whole thing come together now! Finally! Lol is really a relief and an incredibly positive feeling, we are proud, and looking forward to blasting the faces off of the kiddies!” comments drummer Matt Penner.
The band has shared the stage with such acts as Morbid Angel, Napalm Death, Brutal Truth, Testament, Massacre, Into Eternity, Incantation, Sacrifice, Razor, Voivod, Entombed, Cannibal Corpse, Ronnie James Dio and will be performing the following dates below with more to be announced.

“If you’re into that old school feel, you don’t want to miss out on this release” – Counter Culture Nerd
“Psychotic Gardening has delivered a new LP, Hymnosis, that will become an instant favorite of metal heads. This is not a debatable statement but one of fact and I believe that you will join me in that statement as you listen to the well crafted progressions and pounding drums. Each cut takes on a life of it’s own and you can not only hear the procession but also feel it as well. Do yourself a favor and get this LP on May 13th. Words can not even describe how much I enjoyed listening to this brutal work of metal art but I hope that you understand where I’m going with it.” – Tommy Tee – Insane Realm Radio
“Combining equal parts death-, doom- and black-metal, Psychotic Gardening creates a sonic assault on the ears and the soul in its latest album, Hymnosis…a solid effort with bits of black onyx lighting up through the muck and slime. The gods of darkness should be pleased with Psychotic Gardening’s offering.” – The Collegian
“Psychotic Gardening mixes elements of death, doom, thrash and classic heavy metal with great results: Hymnosis is nothing short of incredible. The first big highlight of summer 2014.” – Emurg
“Now the next leading act in the Canadian scene has certainly impressed me and given me hope for the vast land to churn out a lot of good music in the years to come. By that I am referring to blackened doom metal outfit: Psychotic Gardening and their fourth album: HYMNOSIS. This very impressive release opens with very loud, fast and extremely heavy black metal tunes from the first track.” – The Independent Voice
“Opening cut “Origin of the Infection” is crushing from the jump and you can tell right away this is a quality production with a rich sound.” – Wormwood Chronicles
