The deathcore band’s sixth studio effort is their first in seven years.
Suburban Eyes, Suburban Eyes (Spartan):

thrown, Excessive Guilt (Arising Empire):
The Swedish heavy metal band releases their debut album, described as a “blend of aural violence, live intensity and enigmatic performances.”
Enumclaw, Home in Another Life (Run for Cover Records):
The alt-rockers’ second studio album is described in their bio as “simply a powerful and poignant album that has fun with the truth, that takes the blues that come with trying to sort through what the rest of your life may be and transmutes them into songs you will not soon forget.”
