California sludge veterans, -(16)-, return with their heaviest and most devastating record to date, Into Dust. The new album, a collection of cautionary tales of survival and redemption, is set to an amalgamation of sludge, punk, metal, hardcore, and stoner riffs that could only be built through thirty years of commitment to their dark sonic craft, which -(16)- continues to improve upon.
Today, -(16)- share the official video for “Scrape The Rocks” off Into Dust. Watch below.
Guitarist/vocalist Bobby Ferry comments: "'Scrape The Rocks' is our ‘doom metal’ attempt to convey the all too familiar sense of foreboding and impending catastrophe when your ship has run aground."
Into Dust is out November 18 on CD, LP, and digital formats. Find physical pre-orders via Relapse.com here, and digital downloads/streaming services here.
