WVRM announce new album ‘Colony Collapse’

WVRM have announced a new album!

Titled Colony Collapse, the upcoming album from the American grindcore band follows 2016’s Heartache and is scheduled to be released in April, via the band’s new home at Prosthetic Records.

An uncompromising collection of 14 short, sharp shocks, Colony Collapse is a product of its surroundings, an anthology of its environment, and a detailed record of the lives of the people who made it. Over the course of their preceding three splits, four EPs and two full lengths, WVRM have experimented with pushing their personal and musical boundaries; Colony Collapse captures the evolution of their sound and politics in one relentless and violent release. 

Speaking about signing with Prosthetic and the upcoming new album, the band says, “we’re excited to be joining a roster that includes other bands from the Southeast and we’re very privileged to help bring more attention to that scene. Colony Collapse for us is the natural next step in a sound we’ve cultivated through every release over the years, especially from our last two full length albums, Swarm Sound and Heartache.” 

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have shared the first taster from the upcoming record; titled My Fucking Dixie (The New South).
