Deafheaven - Black Brick


In 2018, Revolver went on the road with DEAFHEAVEN for our two-part documentary "Corrupt Love Across America" last month, they dropped in again, on a few of the West Coast tour dates on their co-headlining run with BARONESS. The group's recently released stand-alone single "Black Brick" — a B-side from their excellent, adventurous fourth album, "Ordinary Corrupt Human Love" — serves as a particularly vicious highlight of DEAFHEAVENs set. In contrast to the heavily shoegaze-inflected atmosphere of many of the quintet's other songs, the nearly eight-minute composition is steeped in classic black-metal grimness and ferocity, both of which are only amplified live onstage. Watch the recent performance to see what we mean.

DEAFHEAVEN are out on a long North American co-headlining tour with BARONESS, and with the avant-garde metal band ZEAL & ARDOR opening. They’ve also got a few dates with GOJIRA and EMPEROR coming up, see all the dates below.

Today's tune "Black Brick", taken from their latest album "Ordinary Corrupt Human Love". While "Ordinary Corrupt Human Love" was lauded for its avant-garde approach, "Black Brick" sees DEAFHEAVEN performing at their heaviest yet.
