Converge Post Teaser Video For New Album, Get Us REALLY Psyched For Their Show With Genghis Tron This Friday

Jacob Bannon of CONVERGE raises his hands because he's sure like that.

So we were already balls-to-the-wall thrilled about the Converge/Genghis Tron/Coliseum bill in Brooklyn this Friday, and then we discovered this video …

CONVERGE New album out soon on Epitaph/Deathwish

Looks like the boys are back in town … or at least Kurt Ballou‘s Godcity Studios. We asked Epitaph for a comment on the band’s situation and their publicist said it’s likely that a new LP won’t hit stores until the fall. Either way, we plan on giving you a full report on the quartet’s rare NYC-area appearance and any new jams they might kick out. Here’s their full tour itinerary for now:

3/25 Cleveland, OH – Grogshop
3/26 Lemoyne, PA – Championship
3/27 Brooklyn, NY – Europa
3/28 Richmond, VA – United Blood Festival
3/29 Philadelphia, PA – First Unitarian Church
5/1 Chicago, IL – Subterranean
5/3 Chicago, IL – Burning Fight Book Release Show

Notice the one-month break between dates. Could that be when the new record is wrapped? And if so, will it sound as scintillating/disturbing as the following Converge classics?
