YOB will be touring in support of their critically-fawned upon Clearing The Path To Ascend full-length, released early last Fall via Neurot Recordings. Recorded at Gung Ho Studio in Eugene alongside longtime YOB comrade/iconic sound wizard, Billy Barnett and mastered by Brad Boatright (Sleep, Beastmilk, Nails) at Audiosiege, Clearing The Path To Ascend has reaped the praise of major media outlets globally, including Rolling Stone who placed the record at the coveted #1 spot on their http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001nqgFUQvgV-b1QxUSkShKH_ns8F_SXsn8O9swk3QK1xdTKThY795TNUKWV_U_2YMqWEfhNj9h_uBdZ9exjka8N5gPIZvkJ8yfIl9HTTnitI57-4aaKGZDbnkNTiHRbx7kuKWml33NAk9vIeLxbJkMy-qmSs8xbT55T98Tw4iY2Lwgek1endbeF83O-gelZJzLUFpeRYANSPmQB6_HRx7jmQxOR7B96rkx9ATcpFCJ-836rRLTb3qXYaXSiboB8KZ98VyyDsbOn24=&c=Nn8QHzVumRDa4CqtZq_dkIFAmPBrTr9rFpEsJgKyXWKLtefUs7xdTw==&ch=VmVSAyQByjV2U5sLQey4BDuMoIx2pibF3va_XtMyIgueFAKQw3rhbQ==" rel="nofollow - 20 Best Metal Albums Of 2014 noting, "The seventh album from Oregon doom metal sky-gazers, YOB
... makes perfect bedfellows of volume and beauty, pain and
transcendence." The esteemed publication further commends the record
noting, "Opener 'In Our Blood' extends a simple riff into complex
arches, tracing [vocalist Mike] Scheidt's voice as it moves from an
exquisite falsetto to a death-metal bellow in the course of
sixteen-minutes. And during the colossal closer 'Marrow' - possibly the
best metal song of the year, one that uses low notes to play uplifting
melodies - Scheidt sings 'Time will fall inside the dream.' His voice
suddenly reaches out like a clarion's call, clear and telling and
beautiful. It's a pronouncement from the living, a semaphore pointing
into the future." Elsewhere the sentiment echoes. Free Williamsburg
crowns Clearing The Path To Ascend, "An absolute monument
of musicianship, songcraft, and raw emotion," noting, "this hour-plus
slab of gut-wrenching, god-toppling doom, crafted by frontman Mike
Scheidt in the wake of divorce and the decision to stop taking
anti-depressants, operates on a grander scale, both sonically and
philosophically, than any other album this year." Decibel Magazine
concurs, "Mike Scheidt's songwriting has never been stronger or more
dynamic... a masterful return to form by an American doom powerhouse,"
while Stereogum adds, "Clearing The Path To Ascend is YOB
at their most frenzied ('Nothing To Win') as well as their gentlest
('Marrow'), but taken as whole, its four songs feel like the seasons or
the elements: powerful, eternal, wondrous, and bigger than all of us."
