No Cure have announced their debut album ‘It Is Going To Get Dark’ will drop July 10th and with it have released a new song ‘Convulsing In The Dark’.
NO CURE is wrapping up their run with CATTLE DECAPITATION and will continue their relentless touring schedule this summer with support from BIG ASS TRUCK I.E., BAYWAY, and BOLTCUTTER.
Commenting on the record, vocalist Blaythe Steuer says:
“There is a deep malaise overhead as we are subjected to the way the world is turning. It is clear that things are getting worse, and there is no end in sight. This fixation combined with the gruelling touring lifestyle we’ve lived the past few years has resulted in the perfect first No Cure LP. We recorded this deep in the woods of Alabama between tours, and loss surrounded the band as it was being written. Despite the great shows and tours we’ve been doing, this has been a painful time for the band. Each song has purpose and it is critically important that we deliver a record that is worth listening to from start to finish. If you don’t see that it is going to get dark yet… you will soon.”
Produced and engineered by longtime collaborator Kevin Langley, the album was recorded during a secluded retreat in a remote cabin — the same environment that helped shape much of the band’s previous work. The result is NO CURE at their most focused, ferocious, and dynamic.
Leading the charge is “Convulsing In The Dark,” an unrelenting assault of razorwire riffing, tectonic grooves, and death metal-inspired chaos. Ominous choirs and unpredictable shifts sharpen the song’s suffocating atmosphere as Steuer delivers one of the album’s most confrontational performances.
Commenting on the new song and accompanying video, Steuer adds:
“Convulsing In The Dark brings our wide base of influences as a band into one song. It is the perfect taste of what is to come. The music video features full male nudity too, which is joyous, as Nick Chance’s physical form was sculpted in the visage of a god. You are welcome for this divinely abundant opportunity to witness The Flesh Of The Chancellor.“
