ROSETTA Streaming New Song Via Metal Sucks



Available Directly Via BandCamp With "Pay as You Wish"
Pricing June 22nd


After a 12-year journey ROSETTA has been reborn with Quintessential Ephemera. Now a five-piece including new guitarist/vocalist Eric Jernigan (City of Ships), the band recorded their new album Quintessential Ephemera, a many-layered collection of songs at once existential and deeply hopeful. Containing some of the band's most moody and yet accessible work to date, it still has an upward force to it that delivers an appropriate counterpoint to the darkness and disintegration of The Anaesthete.

Today Metal Sucks is hosting an exclusive stream of the track "Untitled III". Get an exclusive first listen to the HERE: http://www.metalsucks.net/2015/06/12/exclu...rack-premiere-rosetta-untitled-iii/

Quintessential Ephemera will be available digitally on June 22nd with "pay as you wish pricing" directly from ROSETTA's BandCamp page HERE. The band will be playing shows prior to the albums release (listed below). Additional dates will be added soon.

ROSETTA formed in Philadelphia in 2003. Their first two full lengths, 2005's The Galilean Satellites and 2007's Wake/Lift, pulled together elements from 90s hardcore, drone, doom, and atmospheric sludge metal. Informed as much by the minimal sonics of Stars of the Lid as by the crushing weight of Godflesh, the band's experiments had a spaced-out and exploratory feel, appropriately dubbed "metal for astronauts." With the release of A Determinism of Morality in 2010, the band traded improvisation for a tighter and meaner sound. Leaving the space themes behind, the album focused on retaining melodic sophistication while honing a confrontational urgency.

After concluding a decade-long partnership with Translation Loss Records in 2013, ROSETTA went fully independent and quietly released The Anaesthete, a self-funded, pay-as-you-wish download on Bandcamp. A literal overnight success, the album paid for itself in 24 hours and remained the top-selling release on Bandcamp, in any format, for nearly a month after its release. The Anaesthete was a turning point, the darkest and most conceptual album of the band's career, a slab of nihilistic despair in the face of the corruption and co-optation of independent music by commercial industry.
