Chicago-based post-metal experimentalists Suicide Note have announced their new album, Empty Rooms, was released earlier this month on drummer John Gagovski’s own Hawthorne Street Records. The record is their first effort in four years, since 2004’s Too Sick To Dance. Drawing influences from Drive Like Jehu, The VSS, Sonic Youth and Fugazi, Suicide Note look to expand their adrenaline-fueled, pulverizing sound on the new album.
The band has just wrapped up a Midwest/East Coast tour with Lords in support of Empty Rooms, and they look to keep the show going with an appearance at The Fest 7 in Gainsville, Florida. More shows are in the works. Also, the band will be putting the finishing touches on their split with Lordi and will be entering the studio shortly to do a split with longtime friends Pelican.
