The long-awaited third MAN’S GIN album “The Reprobate” is set for release on Sept 6 on limited CD/Digital.  Pre-order HERE.

MAN’S GIN is the COBALT-adjacent solo project of mastermind Erik Wunder and with “The Reprobate”, Wunder continues in the musical throes of wasteland Americana heavy folk-goth through eleven tracks that tell a vagabond journey of desperation, despair, and dejection. “The Reprobate” is the MAN’S GIN magnum opus and showcases some of Wunder’s most vulnerable, wounded and most accomplished songwriting to date.

Taking place right after “Crepuscular Dirge for the Blessed Ones”, “Emerald Fires…” takes us to an even deeper and ineluctable journey.

God Is War is the solo endeavor of Lebanese American artist Mack Chami. Formed in 2018, GIW set out to compose a much more aggressive, bright, glitchy and colorful approach to noise and industrial.

The new self-titled WORMWITCH album is out now and can be streamed everywhere and obtained HERE.  The band’s most vicious and darkest album to date, “Wormwitch” is uncanny feral Canadian black metal, a statement of a band coming into it’s own – a revelrous celebration of devilish speed, searing melody and diabolical intensity.
