ICHABOD: Boston
Psyche/Sludge Act Drop Most Expansive Album To Date
Entire Record
Streaming Now
Following more than a
decade of perpetually mutating and expanding their unique style of rock/metal,
Boston-based ICHABOD release their
most progressive album to date with Dreamscapes From Dead Space this
month.
Conceived and founded
in 1998, ICHABOD quickly formed an
immediately diehard audience with several awesome demos before the turn of the
century. Sporadic but steady live shows have constantly helped the band retain a
solid fanbase, and since 2000 they�ve summoned forth four massive and
ever-expanding studio full-lengths, culminating with the diversified 2012, released by Rootsucker Records in
2008.
Amidst praise of 2012 from internationally-based media
outlets, vocalist Ken MacKay decided to part ways with ICHABOD. Remaining members Greg Delaria
(bass), Dave Iverson (guitar), and Phil MacKay (drums) inducted longtime friend
John Fadden as new throat to help them finalize their newest material, what was
then penned as the band�s swansong. Fadden�s style brought on newfound
inspiration for the entire unit, and the band recruited friend Jay Adam on
second guitar. Instead of disbanding, ICHABOD forged an entirely new path of
musical exploration.
ICHABOD�s fifth full-length,
Dreamscapes From Dead Space, visits
new territory for the band�s already expansive sound, melding elements of their
sludge/doom metal roots with a more prog/psyche �70s vibe, adding a lot more
rock to how they already triumphantly roll. Featuring nearly fifty minutes worth
of otherworldly, free-flow, heavy-ass rock, recorded, co-produced and mixed by
Glenn Smith at Amps vs. Ohms Studio in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with final
mastering done by Nick and Rob at New Alliance East Mastering. The artwork bears
original paintings by Mike Kent and layout but Aaron D. C.
Edge.
Dreamscapes From Dead
Space showcases the broad
range of a proficient musical force in a renaissance era.
The digital download
of Dreamscapes From Dead Space is on
sale now, the album to see a proper CD release via Rootsucker Records/Black
Lotus Entertainment on October 30th, 2012. Official info on even more new ICHABOD material pending release, and
new gigs being booked now and through the New Year, will be announced over the
months ahead.
