CROWBAR Release 11th Studio Album ‘The Serpent Only Lies’
October 28th, 2016

New Orleans, Louisiana-based doom / sludge metal band Crowbar issued 11th full-length studio album The Serpent Only Lies on October 28th, 2016 in Europe through Century Media Records. eOne Music scheduled North American release to take place the same day.

Crowbar entered OCD Recording And Production in Metairie, Louisiana with engineer / producer Duane Simoneaux on February 17th, 2016 to begin recording sessions. Cover artwork duties fell to Eliran Kantor.

Crowbar frontman Kirk Windstein issued the following statement: “I intentionally went back and listened to a lot of old Crowbar stuff, like the self-titled and Broken Glass albums (1993 and 1996, respectively), to get a feel for what my mindset was 20-plus years ago. I also went back and listened to the bands that influenced Crowbar in the beginning, like Trouble, Saint Vitus, Melvins, and the first Type O Negative record (Slow, Deep And Hard, 1991). So it was kinda me doing my homework.”

The track listing is as follows;

01. ‘Falling While Rising’
02. ‘Plasmic And Pure’
03. ‘I Am The Storm’
04. ‘Surviving The Abyss’
05. ‘The Serpent Only Lies’

07. ‘Embrace The Light’
08. ‘On Holy Ground’
09. ‘Song Of The Dune’

Kirk Windstein (vocals and guitar)
Matt Brunson (guitar)
Todd Strange (bass)
