Gatecreeper

As Iron Reagan/Municipal Waste vocalist once told us, a collaboration beer is like a split EP. So we paired the new Iron Reagan/Gatecreeper split with an international collaboration, Seeking Asylum, between San Diego’s Alesmith and British Columbia’s Yellow Dog.

Our resident birdbrains pecks on new titles from Iron Reagan/Gatecreeper, Thy Antichrist and Turnstile.

Fledgling death metal horde Noose Rot embody savagery and barbarianism on “The Creeping Unknown.”

Doom metal sensation Spirit Adrift discuss new album, Curse of Conception, along with the bands — like Metallica — who served as influences.

Boson join forces with Gatecreeper on a new song. Listen now!

Ulcerate, Whores, Gatecreeper, Full of Hell/Nails, Gendo Ikari and everything else Waldo pecked on in 2016. 

Our resident birdbrain has only heard the same two new Metallica songs as you, but he can tell you all about the new Agatus, Aghast! and Gatecreeper albums.

Gatecreeper‘s latest single is yet another reason to keep the death metal newcomers in mind. Listen to “Stronghold” now. 

For Nate Garrett, the healing power of heavy riffs is nothing new. Many know the Arizona-based musician as the guitarist in Gatecreeper and Take Over and Destroy, but 2016 introduces a new chapter in his musical career: the one-man doom project Spirit Adrift. With the release of the band’s debut LP, Chained to Oblivion, a mere week away, we caught up with Garrett to talk about the events that led to its creation.
