Girls Dreams

<p>Kentucky's current best black metal band, Anagnorisis​, has returned with a bombastic new album (their third, and first for Germany's lauded Vendetta Records). This time, it finally feels like they've truly arrived. Earlier albums brought them a good deal of praise and attention, but to these ears, those recordings always felt just a hair lacking; there were so many ideas present that they all seemed to muddle together, obscuring what was obviously a carefully crafted vision. <i>This</i> album, though? This album is fantastic.</p><p><i>Peripeteia</i>​'s main strength lies in its grandiloquent​ song structures that nip at black metal's boundaries. This is black metal at its most grand, coldly melodic and unapologetically over-the-top without stumbling into wimpy, overly symphonic territory—the deranged organ trills on the title track is proof enough of that, to say nothing of the soaring, anthemic guitar/keyboard interplay on "Metamorphosis" or the unnerving audio samples on "Disgust & Remorse Part I." Anagnorisis​ has always felt like a band that demanded quite a lot of itself, and on <i>Peripeteia</i>​, one gets the distinct impression that they're finally satisfied—not enough to stop, or to slow down, but to push even harder.</p><p>Preorders for <i>Peripeteia</i>​ go live October 21— CD, cassette, and digital preorders will be <a href="http://ift.tt/2ekT3uj; target="_blank">available</a>​ from the band, with vinyl via <b><b><b><a href="http://ift.tt/2dqKnfD; target="_blank">Vendetta</a>​​</b></b></b>, and tapes coming via <b><a href="http://ift.tt/2ekVLjD; target="_blank">Young Records</a>​​</b>. </p><div class="article__embed article__embed--soundcloud"><iframe src="http://ift.tt/2dqKaZR; frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="width: 100%; height: 450px;"></iframe></div><p><b>ANAGNORISIS – The Peripeteia Tour 2016:<br></b><span>11/03/2016 Haymarket Whiskey Bar​ - Louisville, KY ​<br>11/04/2016 The End – Nashville, TN<br></span><span>11/05/2016 The Pilot Light – Knoxville, TN<br></span><span>11/06/2016 The Milestone – Charlotte, NC<br></span><span>11/07/2016 McCormack's Irish Pub – Richmond, VA<br></span><span>11/08/2016 The Depot – Baltimore, MD<br></span><span>11/09/2016 The Well – Brooklyn, NY<br></span><span>11/10/2016 Ralph's Rock Diner – Worcester, MA<br></span><span>11/11/2016 Harper's Pub – Clementon, NJ<br></span><span>11/12/2016 The Bug Jar – Rochester, NY<br></span><span>11/13/2016 The Smiling Moose – Pittsburgh, PA<br></span><span>11/14/2016 The Summit – Columbus, OH<br></span><span>11/15/2016 Kuma's Corner – Indianapolis, IN<br></span><span>11/16/2016 Fubar – St. Louis, MO<br></span><span>11/17/2016 The Metal Grill – Milwaukee, WI<br></span><span>11/18/2016 Corktown Tavern – Detroit, MI</span></p><p><i>​Kim Kelly is in the nightside eclipse on <a href="http://twitter.com/grimkim" target="_blank">Twitter</a>​.</i></p>
