Emerging from the vibrant underbelly of Atlanta’s heavy music scene, LOW BEFORE THE BREEZE is set to release their much-anticipated album, A Hole Beneath The Home We Shared, on May 30, 2025, through Terminus Hate City. This release marks a bold evolution in the band’s sound, weaving the personal turmoils of its members into a dense fabric of screamo, black metal, and harsh noise influences.

From the raw emotional screams to the intricate guitar work, the album serves as a sonic narrative of vocalist and guitarist Andrew Spann’s harrowing experiences—from his failed marriage and his father’s illness to a tumultuous brush with physical abuse—all viewed through the lens of religious guilt. The album is a journey through dark and aggressive territories, yet it is deeply personal and introspectively crafted.

The recording process at Sobek Sound under the expert hands of engineer Conner Ray and mixer Simon Small at Tunnel of Reverb captures the band’s raw live energy while refining their sound into a polished yet aggressive album. Mastering by Erol Ulug at Bright Light Studios ensures that the depth and complexity of the sound are preserved, giving listeners a visceral listening experience.

Special guest appearances enrich the narrative and sonic depth of the album. Tim Jones from STARVED OF LIGHT and LEAFBLOWER lends his voice to “Same Joke Twice,” adding a layer of angst and introspection, while Maurice White of APOSTLE and LADYBIRD features on “Cadaver Synod,” contributing to the track’s brooding intensity. Sasha Schilbrack-Cole of MALEVICH not only contributes vocals on “Permission to Rest” but also provides the haunting album cover artwork, encapsulating the emotional and tumultuous themes of the album.

Tracks like “Night Wept” and “Cadaver Synod” are marked as focus tracks for their compelling storytelling and intricate musical compositions. “Night Wept” deals with an intense personal moment of public humiliation and private despair, while “Cadaver Synod” explores the death of relationships and old selves, making them standout pieces that showcase the band’s growth and the thematic gravity of the album.

The album will be available in various formats including vinyl, cassette, and digital, appealing to collectors and digital listeners alike.
