YOB share epic new track “The Screen”

Eugene, Oregon sludge/doom metal titans YOB have just shared the first new track from their upcoming album Our Raw Heart, out June 8 via Relapse. Today, the band premiered new song “The Screen” via Rolling Stone, and it’s an intense, sludgy chug that makes a slow build into a soaring, epic dirge over a 10-minute span. In other words: YOB is back! In the RS article, which is worth the read, frontman Mike Scheidt also discusses how his recent illness nearly ended the band: “I had no idea, really, if the band was going to be able to continue – or how it would continue.” Listen to the YOB “The Screen” stream below.

YOB’s last album was 2014’s Clearing the Path to Ascend.
