As Southern Lord prepares to release the self-titled second LP from Swedish cutting-edge hardcore act, GUST, the first listen to the album is now available for public ingestion! Scroll down to taste it!
The incoming ten-track GUST LP explodes with lyrical angst and musical fury from the get-go, bombarding the listener with catchy riffs and spot-on political statements, making it instantly obvious that GUST is a force with which to be reckoned. The album’s seventh track, “Humility In Disguise,” features guest vocal contributions from Brad Boatright of FROM ASHES RISE and others who mastered the album at his Audiosiege bunker.
Southern Lord will release Gust in North America on September 16th. Preorders for the album are currently available HERE.
GUST’s ongoing tour continues to rip across the European continent, having taken to the road across Europe two weeks ago. They’ll enter the UK for a run of shows this week before closing down in Germany on July 17th. Additional widespread tour dates are to be announced over the coming months.

This second LP was self-recorded at Fvck Life Studios, and mastered by Brad Boatright (Warcry, From Ashes Rise, Deathreat, Audiosiege Engineering), who supplies guest vocals to the album.
