New Age Doom ANGELS AGAINST ANGELS
(LP)

Critically-acclaimed experimental band New Age Doom presents its collaboration with H.R., lead vocalist of the legendary Bad Brains, releasing on March 6, 2026 through Toronto label We Are Busy Bodies. “The vision was to bring H.R. into a space he hasn’t visited in a long time, a sphere he helped create and pioneer. The album thrives at the intersection of chaotic hardcore and spacious dub. Though it was never planned as a dub record, that sound’s gravitational pull affected the music, shaping it naturally,” said Eric J Breitenbach, drummer and co-producer.

“We didn’t just want to revisit history, but to make a sound that doesn’t exist anywhere else. H.R.’s voice evokes survival, chaos, and hope all at once. This album is heavier, stranger, and more alive than anything we’ve done. We’re inspired and can’t wait for people to hear it.”

New Age Doom’s ever-expanding musical lineup now includes Andy Morin of Death Grips, Bowie BLACKSTAR keyboardist Jason Lindner, Quicksand drummer Alan Cage, and Pussy Riot (Riot Days) member Alina Petrova on electric violin.

Returning musicians include bassist Tim Lefebvre, now also on electric guitar, along with trumpeter Dan Rosenboom, Gavin Templeton on saxophones, drummer Benedicte Pierleoni, DJ CrookOne and Cola Wars on keyboards.

Musically the album explores the harder sides of New Age Doom’s sound, including punk rock, prog metal and post rock, while also returning to the chill dub vibes of 2021’s Lee Scratch Perry’s Guide to the Universe, in Lefebvre and Morin-led tracks such as “Radio On” and “Aetheopia Dub.”[info sheet from distr.]
