Yakuza - To Start Recording New Album, First In 10 Years


Chicago based Yakuza will begin recording their long-awaited, as-yet-untitled new studio album. The four-piece will enter Palisades Studio with engineer Sanford Parker later this month. The recording will be completed and mixed at Parker's own Hypercube Studios. Set for worldwide release in the spring of 2022, the record follows Beyul full-length from 2012 and marks Yakuza's first official music output in ten years.

The record will be released in North America via Lamont and Parker's joint imprint, War Crime Recordings, with Svart Recordings handling Europe and beyond.

Offers vocalist/saxophonist Bruce Lamont: "Ten years! You would think that a bunch has changed, Well, some has and some hasn't. The shronky, heavy, hairpin tempo shifts are still there, now add more bottom end thanks to current bassist Jerome Marshall. This new batch of tunes is a nice mix of weird and riffy and we couldn't be happier with how everything has come together."

Adds bassist Jerome Marshall: "It's a return to form from the origins of where the band began. A return to post-metal, avant-garde jazz-influenced heavy chaos with the structural balance of intrinsic order."
