Artist Of The Week - Anchor & Braille

It's been about three years since we've gotten an album from Anchor & Braille, the indie side project of Anberlin's Stephen Christian, but this week, on July 31st, the band's sophomore album will be released. The Quiet Life is a collection of haunting melodies and catchy percussion, certainly a maturation of sound since 2009's Felt. The Quiet Life is available now in stores and online through Tooth & Nail Records.

February 23, 2012 - With less than a month to go, resurgent metal powerhouse
MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE are marching toward the release of their new, self-titled album, available online and in stores everywhere March 13 via Solid State Records.

The band recently gave fans a taste of what is to come with the release of standout track "On Wings of Integrity Pt. 2" a companion to longtime crowd favorite "On Wings of Integrity," which appeared on the band's 2008 debut album, Unbreakable.

Today the band is unveiling a second track, the impressive 'God of Nothing'.
Listen to 'God of Nothing':



"With 'God of Nothing' we weren't afraid to try something weird and new," explains vocalist Matthew Hasting. "The guys wrote one of the heaviest songs we've ever released as a band and I tried anything and everything vocally. The result is a song that is dark, grimy, eerie and one of our favorites off the new album. Lyrically the song deals with our souls being bought with the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. This is the birth of a new possibilities with MCMB and we hope fans like it!"

MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE is available now for preorder with mutliple incentives including "mystery gifts" ranging from autographed tour laminate from one of the band's past tours all the way up to an autographed guitar that was used during recording of the new album!

For MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE, the self-titled album represents a new chapter for the band, and stamps the advent of a refined sound the members have been chasing since MCMB's inception. "That's exactly what this album is, a new beginning," says guitarist Robert Bloomfield. "I really do feel we found our sound. It's definitely MCMB still, but with this new flare that we've all loved and understood but never figured out a way to translate it to our music. I feel like everything we've done as a band all comes together in this one record. It's the best album in our career so far."

Recorded with esteemed producer Zeuss (Hatebreed, Shadows Fall), MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE finds the band reaching deep mentally and emotionally for what is without a doubt their crowning achievement thus far, a hard-hitting, experimental, cinematic opus that will set a fire in the hearts of old and new fans alike. With a no-holds-barred approach to programming and effects, and good, old-fashioned brutal riffage - not to mention a new level of dynamics from frontman Matthew Hasting - MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE have boldly redefined themselves for this new chapter of their career.

In support of the release, the band will be setting sail on a two-month trek alongside FOR TODAY, A SKYLIT DRIVE, STICK TO YOUR GUNS and MAKE ME FAMOUS that includes dozens of stops throughout the U.S. and Canada, culminating in a spot at the infamous New England Metal and Hardcore Festival in Worcester, MA.
