FISTULA: Longing For Infection Full-Length From Ohio Sludge Misanthropes Streaming In Full At Terrorizer
Ohio sludge misanthropes FISTULA will drop the diseased wares of their debilitating Longing For Infection full-length this Friday. Tracked and engineered by Dave Johnson (Midnight, Incantation, Soulless), the demoralizing full-length features the return of FISTULA founding member Bahb Branca on second guitar, furthering the band's already vile brand of sonic violence.
In
advance of its release, today Terrorizer Magazine is streaming the
record in all its delicious ugliness noting, "Though their famously
unstable lineup has been shuffled once again... Longing For Infection
thankfully loses none of that momentum. Founding guitarist Corey Bing's
distinctive riffs are sounding heavier and juicier than ever, whilst
vocalist Dan Harrington (who has been a reliable constant since 2012) is
in his element, spitting out venomous snarls with aplomb."
Adds the band, "Longing For Infection
paints a portrait of our mental state... Having to reform after a major
lineup shift, most bands would say, 'fuck it,' and give up, but we are
slightly more masochistic than that. We channeled our frustrations,
anger, despair and disgust and returned to The Riff, our hardcore punk
and doom roots and pressed 'Record.' Longing For Infection is the result; another sonic creation documenting our distain for humanity. Longing For Infection
is just the beginning; we're just getting started... another album has
already been recorded. Feelings will be hurt, expectations will be
destroyed."

Set for mass contagion on July 15th, 2016, the first pressing of Longing For Infection
will be limited to 1000 copies housed in digipak packaging bathed in
the abysmal artwork of Jason Barnett. Preorders are currently available
at HERE.
FISTULA was forged in 1998 by musical partners-in-crime Corey Bing and Bahb Branca. Over the course of their existence, FISTULA
has released a seemingly endless barrage of studio albums and split EPs
through numerous lineup changes featuring the creative talents of bands
such as -(16)-, Sloth, Hemdale, The Disease Concept, Accept Death, and
so many others. FISTULA is a band that is impossible to
categorize, combining elements of remedial sludge, hardcore and a
proverbial "bad case of the Mondays." Nearing two decades of ear
bleeding, FISTULA remains the kings of doomed-out "miserycore."
2015 saw the band headlining the Het Patronaat stage at Roadburn Festival and recording the Destitute demo as well as the new full studio album Longing For Infection. Aside from Roadburn, FISTULA recently played the Haunted Hotel 13th Anniversary Fest as well as the Berserker III Fest. FISTULA will return to Europe in October to bring their ultimate onslaught of pure, unbridled hatred, and negativity. FISTULA will release another full-length this Fall coinciding with the tour on Totem Cat Records. Entitled The Shape Of Doom To Cumm ))), the record will feature guest guitarist David Szulkin from Blood Farmers and Church Of Misery. Stand by for details.
