Australian metal combo Shatter Brain are proud to announce that they have signed with Wormholedeath for the release of their album Pitchfork Justice. Pitchfork Justice will be out on 1 May 2020 via Wormholedeath/Aural Music Group worldwide. For the occasion, the band released their first single and video Talk in Fear.

Pitchfork Justice was recorded and mixed by Jimmy Balderston at Ghostnote Recording Studios (Scott Kelly, Sumeru, Space Bong) in Adelaide, and mastered by Dav Byrne at Iridium Audio (Witchskull, YLVA, Space Bong). All artwork and layouts were done by Adelaide local Steve Lehmann. Pitchfork Justice contains nine cohesive songs that are a unique blend of sludge metal, old-school thrash, and hardcore, with modern and diverse vocals. The production is lively and bombastic, as well as punchy and aggressive, and the lyrics make a strong statement about the current state of the world, particularly around social media and PC culture.

Shatter Brain state: "We are very excited to announce that we have partnered up with WormHoleDeath/Aural Music for the worldwide release of our debut album Pitchfork Justice on 1 May 2020! We’re stoked to be joining a diverse roster full of high-quality bands, including fellow Australians SUMERU and One Step Beyond. We have a lot of cool stuff to release and announce over the coming months, so watch this space!"

Shatter Brain are a metal/hardcore band comprised of members of some of South Australia’s most successful heavy bands. The band draws together an eclectic but coherent range of influences, seamlessly blending fast, razor-tight rhythms with laid back grooves, and boasting diverse vocals that move from ear-piercing highs to sewer-dwelling lows.

The band launched in January 2018, releasing a four-song demo that was mastered by Joel Grind (Toxic Holocaust, Power Trip, avalera Conspiracy), before embarking tours of Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, and playing shows in Thailand and Malaysia as main support for Brazilian crossover-thrash legends Ratos de Porão (RDP). Shatter Brain then released a split vinyl EP (The 12” Split) folowed by another Australian tour, and were local support act for Cavalera Conspiracy (BRA), Eyehategod (USA), and Power Trip (USA) on the South Australian shows of their respective Australian tours.

In mid-2019, Shatter Brain entered the studio to record their debut album “Pitchfork Justice”. Upon releasing this album, Shatter Brain aims to further expand their reach through national and international distribution and touring.

Shatter Brain are determined to bring their music and intense live show to the world.
