Ever wondered what Tomb Mold or Bolt Thrower having a knife fight with Merzbow & Prurient would sound like? If so, these leaked demos from the upcoming Crowhurst release ‘Harsh Metal’ might just satiate your curiosity.

“While working on the followup to ‘III’, somehow a very rough demo of four tracks from the death metal album we’re calling ‘Harsh Metal’ leaked online. This completely blindsided us but fortunately those were the only files leaked out of a number of completed and unreleased albums on the same computer so we assume that someone got the password to our internal SoundCloud account and used a program to rip the streams.

Instead of pretending a bunch of low quality web rips of the demo don’t exist, we’ve decided to just upload the four that are already out and circulating to YouTube. We hope you enjoy this filthy slab of noisy, disgusting death metal – unpolished and truly unfit for public consumption.”

-Jay Gambit, Crowhurst ringleader/vocalist
