Stomach Earth<\/strong> \u2013 the one man death-doom band formed by The Red Chord<\/strong> guitarist Mike McKenzie<\/strong> in 2001 under the name Nyarlathotep<\/strong> \u2013 is back after 12 years with some new material!<\/p>\n

Stomach Earth<\/strong> originally released its self-titled debut album in 2013, and is now back with a rarities EP called Vestige I<\/em>. The EP features a song that didn’t make it onto the debut Stomach Earth<\/strong> record, as well as reimaginings of two other bands McKenzie<\/strong> is in \u2013 Wear Your Wounds<\/strong> and Umbra Vitae<\/strong>. Get Vestige I<\/em> here.<\/p>\n

On Vestige I<\/em>, McKenzie<\/strong> said: “Vestige I<\/em> is a small collection of pieces from various places. ‘Immeasurable Force’ was originally one of the many demos written for the self-titled LP, released in 2013. It was cut from the final track list before any lyrics were written for it.<\/p>\n

“‘Gates Give Way (SE x WYW)’ and ‘Descend (SE x UV)’ were both recorded at collaboration tracks with Wear Your Wounds<\/strong> and Umbra Vitae<\/strong>, respectively. Both slightly different approaches to chord progressions and ideas than their original counterparts.”<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n
