Chicago-based old-school metal trio BLACK SITES have unleashed their new single “Gideon”. The song is from their upcoming full-length, The Promised Land? which will be released on September 6th, 2024. Listen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=maR_UHdjYbE |
Mark Sugar comments, “This is a very different song for us, although it fits nicely with the goth-rock side quest we’ve occasionally indulged. For all of our prog and thrash tendencies, sometimes it’s nice to lean into the slower, darker side of things.” Formed in 2016 as a studio project, BLACK SITES combines old school metal with guitar harmonies, melodic/clean vocals and progressive elements, primarily drawing inspiration from the likes of VOIVOD, BLACK SABBATH, and KING’S X. The band released their debut In Monochrome in 2017 (Mascot Records), and Exile in2019, with 2021 bringing Untrue produced by Sanford Parker and awarded Record Of the Year by Dr. A.N.
