SECT surprise everyone with the release of a brand new album Blood Of The Beasts, available now via Southern Lord.
Comprised of hardcore acts from across the US and Canada dating back to the early 1990s, the members of SECT are life-long committed scene veterans, including vocalist Chris Colohan (Cursed, Burning Love, Left For Dead), guitarists James Chang (Catharsis, Undying) and Scott Crouse (Earth Crisis, The Path Of Resistance), bassist Steve Hart (Day Of Suffering), and drummer Andy Hurley (Racetraitor, The Damned Things).
Watch below the video for Reid Haithcock directed video for album track “Like Animals”.
As with their previous album, No Cure For Death, Blood Of The Beasts was recorded at GodCity with Kurt Ballou (Converge, Nails, All Pigs Must Die) who also performed clean guitar on the song “Skies Wide Shut.” Dre Black also provides guest vocals on the song “Cirrhosis Of Youth.”
With the release of Blood Of The Beasts, vocalist Chris Colohan states that the album is, “ten reflections on the myth of progress, the new old tribalism, the single face of all subjugations, the broken promise of automation, love, loss and obsolescence, set against the dying light of a better tomorrow.”

This weekend they play Brooklyn tomorrow, Saturday, August 31st, followed by a show in the nation’s capital Sunday, September 1st.
