POUND: "FEROCIOUSLY PRIMORDIAL MATH-GRIND DUO" REVEAL NEW MUSIC VIDEO VIA INVISIBLE ORANGES; SOPHOMORE ALBUM RELEASE APPROACHES; UPCOMING LIVE DATES INCLUDE ROB ZOMBIE, MARILYN MANSON
"Seattle’s forward-thinking yet ferociously primordial math-grind duo Pound... Intertwining the raw, seething aesthetic mentality of grinding mathcore with the deft musicianship, unconventional rhythms, and unbridled creativity of djent and death metal, “x_–_+_–_x_–.+_–_x_–+_–” progresses gradually and hypnotically despite its breakneck pace."
–Invisible Oranges
Invisible Oranges has premiered the new track and music video by Pound – stream "x_–_+_–_x_–.+_–_x_–+_–" here:

Marrying the chaos of bands like The Locust, with the galaxy-sized grooves of Meshuggah, Pound whips up a wholly original racket that is both head-scratchingly complex and sock-you-in-the-gut heavy.
Consisting of only two members – guitarist Ryan Schutte and drummer David Stickney – the duo uses gear that is as unique as its sound. Schutte plays a baritone 9-string guitar and Stickney plays two drumkits, positioned at a 90-degree angle.
Titled simply with two dots, Pound's upcoming second album is a tour-de-force that makes entirely new magic out of the formulas put forth on 2018's self-titled debut. Out May 31st on Silent Pendulum Records, •• was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Dave Otero (Cattle Decapitation, Cephalic Carnage) at Flatline Audio in Denver, Colorado.
