GODHUNTER City Of Dust [LP]

Bearing the underlying subtitle, A Conversation Between Hope and Despair, the fifty-minute dust storm of groove-laden, resin-coated sludge metal intensity City Of Dust delivers the most concise, diverse, and infectious hymns from the politically-motivated Tucson, Arizona-based outfit to date. Through a brutally honest outcry the album boasts thought-provoking, thematic tirades against the governmental members and parties the residents who embody GODHUNTER feel are directly responsible for a wide array of vital societal issues affecting their home region, including equal rights, a widespread water shortage, immigration and more. Having been released through a union of Earsplit’s label, The Compound, and GODHUNTER’s Battleground Records, the two DIY factions have now released City Of Dust in a deluxe vinyl edition in a run of 300 copies on clear 180-gram vinyl with red splatters analogous with the desert rose cover artwork. The record comes poly-bagged with a black sleeve and full-color 12"x24" lyric/liner sheet and full-color jacket, stickers, pins, patches and more. [The Compound / Battleground]
