Prog-doom stalwarts YOB are set to release their highly anticipated new album, Our Raw Heart, June 8th via Relapse Records. The LP marks the band's first release since singer/guitarist/songwriter Mike Scheidt's 2017 battle with a life-threatening case of acute diverticulitis, an intestinal disease — an experience that infuses the new album. "It's like when your hard drive crashes — sometimes only parts of it are retrievable," Scheidt says of writing Our Raw Heart. "That's how it was for me. Some things just didn't come back. Others came back in completely different ways. Others are still there but my perspective is completely different. I live in a different world now, and all of that went into this album — new insight, a new sense of self."

Ahead of the record's release, YOB have premiered a new song "The Screen" (on Rollingstone.com), which stutters and grinds in gargantuan slow motion like a doom-metal inversion of Meshuggah's "Bleed." Our Raw Heart is available for pre-order via Relapse in various physical bundles including a super deluxe 2XLP boxset (limited to 100 copies), a white/gold splattered deluxe version (limited to 300 copies), various merchandise and other formats including cassette and CD.
