It's been over two years since Chicago's Indian put out their last album, Guiltless, a fuzzed-out sludge/doom monster. With From All Purity, Indian's back delivering the insanely heavy goods. The tracks on From All Purity often trudge along, embracing a drone as the path to destruction instead of blasts. "Directional", streaming below, is one of the album's most brutal tracks. A militaristic, doom-impending march and walls of thick noise-haze create a bleak, hopeless atmosphere overlaid with harsh distorted screams. Happy 2014.

From All Purity is out on January 21st on Relapse and is available for pre-order.

— Wyatt Marshall
