Stomach Earth (Red Chord) debut set for release

Official press release: Black Market Activities presents the self-titled debut album by Stomach Earth, the solo project of The Red Chord guitarist and founder Mike "Gunface" McKenzie, set for a July 16th release. Massive, creeping death-doom of the underworld, Stomach Earth summons the vast void of early Godflesh and the morbid grandeur of early Cathedral, creating a new futuristic sound that is transfixing and heavy as hell. Like a single wave swallowing a city, Stomach Earth wields maximum power through minimum means. Glacial tempos and minimal programmed drums allow for a clarity that absolutely devastates. McKenzie, known across the globe as a technical metal shredder, chooses instead with Stomach Earth to do his killing slowly and methodically. The results are awe-inspiring. Monolithic and glistening with cinematic sheen, Stomach Earth demands to be cranked to 11. Surrender to the hypnotic trance and headbang in slow-motion to Stomach Earth's "Watchers", here! The sole mastermind behind Stomach Earth, McKenzie wrote all the album's music and lyrics, sang and played all the instruments. The self-recorded, self-mixed album was mastered by Nick Zampiello at New Alliance East. The album's tracklist is as follows: 1. Void Angel Ritual 2. Watchers 3. Haunted by the Living 4. Prolong the Death Watch 5. The One They Fear 6. Reaching the Threshold 7. Claimed
