Song of the Day: The Faceless - Prison Born

     Heavy TO prep continues apace today, with a track from a young band that seems to be the up and coming tech-death darling de jour. The fact that they announced the completion and impending release of their new album Autotheism sort of out of nowhere, the fact that we've so far heard only a minute-long snippet of the new stuff even though the record comes out next week, and the fact that their last record, Planetary Duality, was so awesome all combine to make Autotheism an album I'm pretty stoked for, and I'm certainly not the only one. Yes, you may have figured out by now that I'm talking about The Faceless.


     Your song for today is "Prison Born", the opening track from Planetary Duality, The Faceless' sophomore album. It's a two minute blast of all things Faceless: machine gun guitar riffs with super-tight drums, some cool lead work, some robotic voice work... it all makes for a song that goes a hundred miles an hour from start to finish. Tasty.
