UK hardcore/metal outfit BUTCHERBIRD introduce unleashes “Trajan’s Massive Column”
New London-based band ButcherBird will release their debut EP Drought/Deluge through Drowning Sea God Records on 30 May 2025. Ahead of the full release, they’re presenting the video for lead track Trajan’s Massive Column! Built around a balance of chaos and structure, the six-track release clocks in at just over 21 minutes. Its sound swings between filthy riffs, jolting time signatures, and dissonant noise elements—often the result of guitarist Rob Langtry’s custom-built DIY pedals. The band cite influences like Botch, Coalesce, The Chariot, and Charger, but lean into their own disorienting blend of emotional hardcore and metallic density. View
