At War With False Noise and Unholy Anarchy announce February 20th as the international release date for Legion Of Andromeda's debut album, Iron Scorn. Conceived, constructed, and assembled in 2012 by the demented minds of -M- (axe/machinery: Japanese) and -R- (vokills: Italian) and lurking within the inhuman megalopolis of Tokyo, Legion Of Andromeda is blessed by the will of total war.

Sculpted in reiteration, repetition, and cyclical rotation, Legion of Andromeda’s impenetrable cacophony outbursts the breath of cosmic frost: raw, minimal, brutal; primitive, obtuse, barbaric. Albeit genuinely inspired by such diverse acts as Big Black, Suicide, Godflesh, Ildjarn, Swans, Khanate, VON, and Pan Sonic, among others, the band have crafted a totally original and unique sound.

The duo’s first offering, released in November 2013 and quickly sold out within a few months, was a four-track/32-minute self-titled demo comprising total aural disintegration, and was recorded, mixed, and mastered in August 2013 by Shigenori Kobayashi (Coffins, Sete Star Sept) at Noise Room Studio in Tokyo for maximum audial displeasure. The demo was distributed by Obliteration Records in Japan, At War With False Noise in the EU, and Aquarius Records in the US.

 

 

In July 2014, Legion Of Andromeda recorded their first proper full-length with the legendary Steve Albini (Neurosis, High On Fire, Nirvana) at his own Electrical Audio in Chicago. Titled Iron Scorn, the album is colossal, punishing, and devastating in terms of production, dynamics, and sound. Albini’s extraordinary engineering skills and unique genius brought to life a real monster, a huge sonic crusher of devastating proportions. The record, mastered by John Golden (Melvins, Om, Sleep), will be released on February 20th on vinyl format only by At War With False Noise in the EU and Unholy Anarchy in North America.

On the artwork side, the insanely talented Tony Roberts (Conan, Electric Wizard, Unearthly Trance) provided visual aggression to the album.
