Chelsea Grin, a deathcore group, is working on new music; a single is expected to be released before the end of the year, as per theprp. Tom Barber, the band’s singer, verified the information during an appearance on the Nik Nocturnal Podcast, which was just released yesterday, June 3. The main topic of discussion during that conversation was Josh Miller, drummer for Barber and Chelsea Grin‘s successful project Darko, whose most recent album, “Oni 2,” was only published last month. However, Barber had the following to say about Chelsea Grin.
Early next year… We were going to put out Chelsea Grin probably like, January, and then before the end of the year, the goal is to have one of our banger ass singles [out.] And I’m going to be real with you, the entire record is singles. So we’re struggling to pick out what song we’re trying to put [out.]
Barber went on to reveal the roster of the previously mentioned tour, which is scheduled for November and December. However, the information was concealed in the podcast because it hasn’t been made public yet.
The American deathcore group Chelsea Grin is based in Salt Lake City, Utah. The group was founded in 2007 and has since released seven full-length albums and two EPs. Since 2018, the band has lost all of its original members. Bassist David Flinn is the only member who has consistently appeared on all of the group’s studio albums, despite not being part of the initial lineup. Ahaziah was the original name of Chelsea Grin. Lead guitarist Michael Stafford, bassist Austin Marticorena, guitarist Chris Kilbourn, and vocalist Alex Koehler made up the lineup for Ahaziah. Chelsea Grin changed their name to Chelsea Grin shortly after Marticorena brought Andrew Carlston to the band and helped with songwriting and new material production.
The songs on their first release, a self-titled EP that was streamed and made available online via iTunes before being released on CD globally on July 27, 2008, were the result of this composition process. The songs “Crewcabanger” and “Lifeless” were released as singles early in the band’s history, and both were well-received by Myspace listeners. Later, the band tried to add a third guitarist, which resulted in the hiring of Dan Jones and David Flinn. They then wrote their full-length album “Desolation of Eden” (2010), followed by “My Damnation” (2011), and finally an EP called “Evolve” (2012).
