Worcester based hardcore band MOUNTAIN MAN have announced plans to release a new EP titled Two on August 14, via No Sleep Records. Two is available for pre-order on vinyl and digitally now at the No Sleep store.

Listen to the new track “Take Out The Sun” from Two here:

Drawing influences from the likes of Swans, Neurosis and even Tom Waits, Mountain Man meld turbulent riffs, fierce rhythm and aggressive vocals resulting in a whirlwind of intense hardcore. Mountain Man’s follow-up to 2010’s EP, One, and their full-length album, Grief, Two expands on the band’s previous efforts musically and lyrically with darker and more atmospheric elements. The EP will feature four blistering tracks like “Take Out The Sun,” that will undoubtedly propel the band to the forefront of underground hardcore.

- The press release was just fine until the last line… I know its hyperbole, but it’s dumb hyperbole. Sigh… intense song though. I’ll stand by for the propulsion…
