TO NO AVAIL (VINYL)

The second full-length from Chicago's Surachai, To No Avail, is a stark and relentless journey to the center of an experimental, black metal earth poised on the brink of destruction. A cathartic, guitar-driven manifesto ripped from the heart of a digital under ground, Surachai's To No Avail takes U.S. black metal to new heights, and smashes the conceptions of true/false mania upon your unsuspecting face. For fans of Krallice, Deafheaven and Deathspell Omega. Limited run vinyl.??Local metallers Surachai's To No Avail is hands down one of the best-looking albums to come out of Chicago this year, and with its two ten-minute-plus sides of noise-worshipping, electronics-heavy avant-black-metal it's easily one of the most epically heavy albums as well. - Miles Raymer/Chicago Reader
