City Of Dust, the debut full-length release from Arizona's anarcho-sludge faction, GODHUNTER, is now less than Two weeks from Deliverance, the fifty-minute politically-antagonizing concept album unleashing the band's most musically diverse and lyrically thought-provoking anthems yet.
 
Killer reactions to City Of Dust are showing up from around the globe, Godhunter's gritty but moody blend of harsh crust/punk persuasion to their Craft a welcome change of pace from some of the more practiced contemporary deliveries of Sludge metal. Among the stoned-out Dirges on the ever-morphing tectonic surge of City Of Dust, one of the instant stand-out tracks is the fourth of the album's Eight; the venomous "Snake Oil Dealer." Uncoiling over nearly Seven and-a-half slow-burning minutes, the Agony of the band's tonal crush is soaked with some of the most Ethereal Moog-driven atmospherics of the album, in addition bearing some of the members' brutally-honest, confrontational views on their Home state's governmental downfalls. The band released a statement on the lyrical basis of the song, aimed at some of the specific politicians, bills and propaganda they feel are deliberately to blame in recent years, some of which HAS been posted alongside an exclusive listen to the track via Vice Magazine's music channel, Noisey.

With a barrage of stateside tour actions being prepped for the upcoming months and through the rest of 2014, Godhunter are currently notifying all area bandits of their release show for City Of Dust. The shit hits the fans in Tucson on Saturday, February 15th, a FREE SHOW with their bros in Lord Dying and a rack of others, and surely, enough cervezas to flood the Sonoran Desert.
