A second track has surfaced off Helms Alee's upcoming album, Stillicide, which will be out September 2nd on Sargent House. The track is called Untoxicated and it's a typical example of the band's heaviness combined with the perplexity of their math rock philosophy and punk grit.
Taken into account that the album is produced by Kurt Ballou at God City Studios, you probably already have an idea about how this is shaping up as the best Helms Alee album in the almost ten years of the band's existence. If not, find out below.
