Napalm Death Announce Logic Ravaged By Brute Force EP

Grindcore pioneers Napalm Death have announced details of a new 7" EP titled Logic Ravaged By Brute Force.

Due for release on February 7 on Century Media Records, it coincides with the start of their Campaign For Musical Destruction headline tour alongside EyeHateGod, Misery Index, Rotten Sound and Bat.

As well as the new EP, Napalm Death are planning to release a new full-length album later this year.

“In keeping with Napalm Death custom, we had a vast swathe of new songs with many different flavours," says vocalist Barney Greenway. "So then naturally we moved into single territory and opted for Logic Ravaged By Brute Force. It's the coldness and desperation of the guitar chords and voice that swung it."

The EP also features a cover of White Kross, originally by Sonic Youth.

"Seeing as Sonic Youth mash chords like few others, this cover of White Kross just seemed to lift itself beyond the constraints of cover – or filler – song into a bit of a rumbling wall-of-sound epic," Barney adds.

Logic Ravaged By Brute force will be released digitally and in a range of vinyl variants. Order your copy here.
