Seattle duo Pound returns with its sophomore album, ••, this Friday May 31st in vinyl and digital formats via Silent Pendulum Records, the NYC-based underground label owned by Downfall of Gaia's drummer Michael Kadnar.

Titled simply with two dots, Pound's upcoming second album is a tour-de-force that makes entirely new magic out of the formulas put forth on 2018's self-titled debut. Pound's debut wowed with its exuberant mix of chaos and groove, but on •• the songs power forward with new, unshakable strength and efficiency.

Pound's gear is truly as unique as its sound: Guitarist Ryan Schutte plays a baritone 9-string guitar and David Stickney plays two drumkits, positioned at a 90-degree angle! In the absence of other instruments, the listener can fully absorb every detail of the duo's playing. Both musicians play as though their instruments are literally their voices. Check out Pound's latest new video out of 4 released so far, just exclusively celebrated its premiere on metal.de. The clip for the mind-breaking track x-_x-_x-x-x-_x-_x-_x-x-_x-x- is now available on Youtube
