Metal metal everywhere! Starting TONIGHT, the heaviness gets underway with a marathon of killer shows designed to make your neck tired from all that bangover.

High On Fire kicks off the festivities tonight (7/27) with Unearthly Trance (who play August 14th with Coffinworm) and Natur rounding out the bill at Music Hall of Williamsburg (tickets).

Immolation and Arsis team up with the incredible Disma (we profiled them here) to destroy The Studio at Webster Hall on Wednesday (7/28, tickets).

Thursday means Innumerable Forms and Mammoth Grinder at The Acheron (unmissable).

Friday is Black Cobra / Howl / Struck By Lightning / East of The Wall at The Studio at Webster Hall (tickets).

Saturday is Deathcycle at 538 Johnson, and we cap it all off with a night of pitch perfect darkness with Altar of Plagues/ Velnias / Castevet / Man’s Gin at The Studio @ Webster Hall on Sunday (8/1, tickets).

Speaking of these shows, I have a three free pairs of tickets available for giveaway for three of the shows listed above: Black Cobra, Altar of Plagues, and Immolation. Details on how to win are at the bottom of this post.

Meanwhile, dig on a few songs available for download above featuring contributions from Disma, Immolation, Arsis, Torche, Boris, and Russian Circles.

A reminder, Boris/Torche/Russian Circles play Music Hall of Williamsburg on August 6th (tickets), a show that will double as a release party for the Boris/Torche split. In celebration, the label will giveaway pins with a download code for the Torche contribution – but only at this show.

The release show at MHOW is just one day after Unsane rips it at Santos (8/5, tickets) and one day before Fuck The Facts/Magrudergrind beat down Cake Shop (8/7).
