Colin Marston has been a huge part of our history. He’s mixed and mastered all of our full lengths, and his ethic, independence, and artistic contributions as an engineer have been crucial our development as a band. Additionally, Colin has served as a significant musical influence and he’s been an invaluable member of the international metal and experimental music communities. Colin was recently forced to vacate Menegroth The Thousand Caves, his longtime studio. is selling this shirt commemorating The Thousand Caves, the proceeds of which will go to Colin’s relocation expenses. Please help out and grab a shirt!

Our second European tour with Devoid Of Thought was a great success, and we are so grateful to all of you who came to see us, shared the stage with us, or otherwise supported this run. It meant even more knowing that this would be our last tour with Keith Abrami on drums, as he has made the decision to step down from Artificial Brain. Keith has been our drummer since the very beginning of the band, when we were practicing in his parents basement and trying to play Dim Mak songs together. He has since become a remarkable, powerful, and commanding drummer, as well as a dedicated husband and dad. He remains one of our closest friends, and we are so deeply proud of everything that we have accomplished together. We love you, Keith.

In light of this news, we would like to officially announce some new additions to our lineup. First, Alex Tomlin from Battlemaster has joined the band as our full time drummer, after having filled in for us on our tours with Crossspitter and Succumb/Luminous Vault.

Second, Mike Paparo from Inter Arma (who you have likely seen if you’ve watched us over the past two years) will be joining the band on vocals.

Alex and Mike are outstanding musicians and great people, and we feel extremely lucky to have found such a large network of passionate, likeminded individuals to collaborate on this music. We are now hard at work on new music and eager to share more with all of you.
