Gorguts - Pleiades Dust

Gorguts release new track "Besieged" from 'Pleiades Dust' (listen)

Gorguts have premiered a new track, or rather a new “movement,” from their upcoming album/very long song Pleiades Dust. They’re billing it as “Besieged,” and it’s a typically dense, intellectual piece of metal from the band. Starting off as a doomy trudge, the song quickly devloves into the kind of controlled chaos that Gorguts specialize in. The middle section of the 7-minute track includes some particularly impressive, frenetic bass playing, before the song slows down and hits a technically impressive, tonally adventurous guitar solo. You can stream it below.

Pleiades Dust is out May 13th via Season of Mist. They’ve got some European dates coming up, along with Amnesia Rockfest in their home province of Quebec. All dates listed, along with a stream of “Besieged,” below.
