Richmond doom crews Cough and Windhand not only share some influences, but now they also share a member in bassist Parker Chandler and a label home, Relapse. That's correct, after releasing their massive self-titled opus last year, Windhand have not only signed to the label for a full-length, they will release their first Relapse effort on April 16th as part of a split with Cough. Stream that in its entirety below and order yours at the label.

Cough is currently touring their way toward Roadburn 2013 and Heavy Days in Doomtown, and Windhand will play US dates shortly thereafter. Make sure you catch them on the road if the chance arises.
