Neurosis are hitting the road this fall. If you ever caught them live, you know the deal: these underground metal titans were transcendent in person, every single time. This year brought an out-of-nowhere return, with Aaron Turner of Isis and SUMAC stepping in for departed frontman Scott Kelly. That same day, they dropped a surprise album: An Undying Love For A Burning World. It's a monster.
Anyone who lived with Through Silver In Blood back in 1996, or got wrecked by the slow crush of Times Of Grace, understands what this band can build. The new record carries that same weight.
Their live comeback landed at Montana's Fire In The Mountains fest last month, their first show in seven years. Then came Asheville alongside Acid Bath, Melvins, and Kylesa. A killer run already, and now the tour widens.
Seeing Neurosis in a room is a rite of passage. Do not sleep on this one.
