LANDMINE MARATHON are recording the follow up to 2010’s, “Sovereign Descent.” Once again, the album is being recorded at guitarist Ryan Butler’s Arcane Digital Recording Studios, where he’s recorded past efforts from the band, as well as Misery Index, Phobia, The Funeral Pyre and many more. The band are about to enter the mixing stage and are shooting for a late fall release of the, as of yet untitled, fourth album. Look for the band to announce summer tour dates in the coming days.

LANDMINE MARATHON guitarist Ryan Butler commented; “The new album contains our most raw and vicious material to date. We definitely found a great groove in writing and recording this record, everything feels very fluid. This is in great part due to our new drummer Andy York, who brings a powerful and tight dynamic to the band. I am really excited for the world to hear this new album.”

LANDMINE MARATHON, whose vocalist, Grace Perry, appeared on the cover of Revolver Magazine in late 2009, performed several shows at South By Southwest and the 2^nd Annual SCION ROCK FEST in March 2010, appeared at Austin’s Fun Fun Fun Fest and Indianapolis’ Dude Fest last year. The band also did a video for the track, “Shadows Fed To Tyrants,” which can be viewed HERE and participated in a unique collaboration with CRANK, filmmaker, Brian Taylor, who recorded his own guitar tracks to the track, “Skin From Skull.”

2010 was a great year for Landmine Marathon. We spent more of the year on the road than we ever have in the past. We made many new friends and also had the opportunity to hang with many old yet familiar faces. 2010 also marked the addition of our new drummer Andy York, to say the least the new blood is invigorating and inspiring. That being said, it is safe to say that we will be laying low for the first part of 2011 to focus on writing the follow up to our last album Sovereign Descent (if you haven’t already picked up a copy, we highly suggest you do so!). So far being only a few songs into the writing, I can honestly say that our excitement level for the new album is very high! Updates and official announcements will be coming a bit later.

Many thanks go out to all of our friends and fans who have helped and supported us. The list is endless, but we wanted to give some highlights of said list:

Ron Martinez, Ami Lawless, Bob Deep Six, Val, Rich Hall, Curran Reynolds, Adam Shore, Brian Lew, Fred Pessaro, Skeletonwitch, Jarrett, Dane, Withered, Salome, Deadsea, Early Graves, The Funeral Pyre, Dan Dismal, Brian Taylor, all of the venues that we played and bands that we played with, everyone who booked a show, everyone who fed us or let us sleep on their floor, everyone who came to a show, hung out and got wild with us...
