(Action) California skate rockers Arctic have announced that they will release their self-titled debut album on June 24th via Outer Battery Records (Dinosaur Jr., Windhand). We were sent the following details:
Recorded at San Diego's Audio Design with producer Jordan Andreen (Earthless, JOY), the record delivers five towering tracks of the band's "full frontal axe assault".
Not only do Arctic shred fretboards, they are masters at the art of "shredding", literally! The band features guitarist / pro skater Justin "Figgy" Figueroa (also of Harsh Toke), bassist / pro skater Don "The Nuge" Nguyen and drummer / pro skater Frex. Since the band's formation in 2011, Arctic has shared the stage with friends such as High On Fire, Earthless, The Shrine, Ruby The Hatchet and many more.
Artwork and design for Arctic was created by legendary metal illustrator and painter Arik Roper (Sleep, Sunn O))), Earth), adding an indomitable aura to Arctic's voluminous vibe. The LP, available in the electric colors "ice blue" and "Arctic white", is available for pre-order now, at this location.
