Spanish Thrashers HOLYCIDE have just announced details of their 3rd album which will be titled "Towards Idiocracy". They have revealed the cover art, the tracklist, as well as the first advance single that can now be heard on all digital platforms. "Towards Idiocracy" will be released in June 6th (international day of Slayer) through XTREEM MUSIC on CD, 12"LP, Cassette and Digital formats.

Formed exactly 20 years ago by Dave Rotten of Avulsed and Vicente Paya of Unbounded Terror/ Golgotha, the band really began their journey in earnest in 2013 and since their exciting debut EP “Toxic Mutation” back in 2015, HOLYCIDE have held the banner high for uncompromising, undiluted Thrash Metal – in the words of the mighty Exodus, “100% all out nothing less, aggressive relentless and mean”.

Like no other band in the modern age, HOLYCIDE’s dedication to Thrash is absolute and with their third full length album, “Towards Idiocracy”, they have created a genuine Thrash masterpiece. From the opening attack of ‘A.I. Supremacy’ to the last defiant chord of final track ‘Flamethrower ‘em All’, via a flawless cover of the Atrophy classic ‘Chemical Dependency’, “Towards Idiocracy” is a nirvana of monstrous riffs, relentless drums and a snarling vocal presence that will have the faint ears running for the hills. A caustic attack on humanity’s pathetic addiction to a shallow, selfish existence, “Towards Idiocracy” is every bit as vehement in its unforgiving lyrical exhortations as in its rapid fire, twin guitar assault. HOLYCIDE are setting the standards for Thrash in 2024!

HOLYCIDE is best described with four simple words - Mother Fucking Thrash Metal. For fans of Dark Angel, Morbid Saint, Atrophy, D.R.I., Infernäl Mäjesty, Exodus, Sepultura (Beneath/ Arise), Vio-Lence...

Still bonded by blood with Xtreem Music, HOLYCIDE will unleash the fistful of Metal that is “Towards Idiocracy” on June 6th – the international day of Slayer. What more fitting release date could there be for an album which is HOLYCIDE’s very own “Reign in Blood”? Their most intense, unyielding and inexorable album to date! Mixed and mastered for maximum impact by Javier Fernández Milla (Avulsed, Golgotha, The Heretic, etc) and Davide Billia (Hour of Penance, Beheaded, etc) and housed in the vividly violent artwork of Daemorph Art (The Black Dahlia Murder, Sorrow, Bodyfarm, etc), “Towards Idiocracy” is the complete Thrash package. Prepare for detonation!

So far, 2024 comes with great plans and goals for HOLYCIDE, not only with the release of the new album, but with the return to the stage with two confirmations at super-festivals such as Rock Imperium Festival (Spain), Obscene Extreme Festival (Czech Rep.), Kanekas Metal Fest (Spain) and a few more surprises coming up.

Tracklist for "Towards Idiocracy" is as follows:

01. A.I. Supremacy

02. Towards Idiocracy

03. Remote Control

04. Lie is the New Truth

05. Power Corrupts

06. Technophobia

07. Angry For Nothing

08. Chemical Dependency (Atrophy cover)

09. Pleased to Be Deceived

10. Flamethrower 'em All

Release date for "Towards Idiocracy" will be June 6th, 2024 (international day of Slayer) through XTREEM MUSIC on CD, 12"LP, Cassette & Digital formats.

ITP V.024 SPORTS: NEW YORK KNICKS TAKE 2-0 SERIES LEAD OVER PHILADELPHIA 76'ERS

 

 

FROM ITP :

 

The New York Knicks won last night? With less than a minute left the Knicks were losing (to the 76ers) and I turned off the TV. For some reason I couldn't sleep last night. I wake up and the New York Knicks WON. Yeesss, take that Philly.

#NoQuitInNewYork

FROM ALAN HAHN: 

The Knicks are the first team in the last 25 years to win a playoff game in regulation after trailing by 5 or more points in the final 30 seconds. The Knicks trailed the Sixers, 101-96, before Jalen Brunson's corner three bounced off the rim and dropped in with 27.4 seconds left to make it a two-point game. Then came the madness. The Brunson deflection on the inbound -- why didn't Philly call timeout there? -- and the Hart instincts to grab the loose ball while Maxey was on the floor -- Philly actually did try to call a timeout there -- to give the Knicks life. The Hartenstein hustle, getting an critical offensive rebound as Embiid forgot about him and boxed out Hart instead. The DiVincenzo determination, to reset and hit what would be the game-winning shot with 13.1 seconds left after he had just missed from three moments earlier. OG's stoicism on the free throw line to drill two monumental shots with 6.6 seconds left to make a 3-point lead. And the final possession, a rattled Sixers group with no timeouts could only get a 25 footer from Embiid that bounced off the side rim. Then, the drama afterwards, from Sixers coach Nick Nurse's frustration that he was trying to call a timeout, Embiid insisting the Sixers are still going to win the series and the Sixers reportedly filing a grievance over the officiating in the first two games. And there's the euphoria of a Knicks team that won two games with late heroics and the concern that it was yet another game where the Sixers defense held Jalen Brunson in check. It's not easy forming words and organizing your mind to analyze and explain something like that just moments after it happened, but that's what we do. So here's how we did it in the opening segment of the postgame show on MSG Networks: Knicks Shock Sixers In Final Minute To Take 2-0 Series Lead To Philadelphia | New York Knicks
