    Hyperblasts: Gallows Cope (RIP Andy Williams)

    First and foremost, we try to speak to the awful loss of Every Time I Die legend Andy Williams. From there we tackle new singles from Slipknot and Spiritbox, the hallucinatory hellscape stories related to Muse's Meta troubles and Breaking Benjamin's modder feud tirades, and put our tin foil hats to theorise that SURELY the Gallows teasing can't just be for vinyl reissues... Releases: Green Lung - Necropolitan Brian Fallon - Not Bad for New Jersey The Meffs - Business Wrong Man - Here’s That Feeling Killing of a Sacred Deer - Encephalic Angels Harlott - Exsequiis Dreadnought - Wars of Spirit // Wards of Light Archgoat - Nightbringer, Lightbringer Fluisteraars - Jacht der Mysterien Epitaphe - III
