CONVERGE and NAPALM DEATH, have announced details on an upcoming split 7″ EP release.

The EP finds both bands offerings new tracks in what surely will prove to be the single-most intense release of 2012.

The self-released EP will be available soon via Deathwish Inc.

Recorded as part of their new album sessions, Converge offer up the blazing new song 'No Light Escapes'.

Already a staple of their live set, this whirlwind of an emotional charged song is a soon to be a discordant hardcore/metal anthem for the band.

Also on the release, Converge offer a 'We Are The World' styled rendition of the influential Entombed classic 'Wolverine Blues'.
Joining them in tribute is a number of friends including Tomas Lindberg (Disfear, At The Gates, Lock Up), Aaron Turner (Isis, Old Man Gloom, Split Cranium), Kevin Baker (APMD, The Hope Conspiracy), Brian Izzi (Trap Them), and more.

A new Converge album will surface later in 2012 on Epitaph/Deathwish.

On the flip side, metal pioneers NAPALM DEATH offer up two new aural monsters.

First, 'Will By Mouth' erupts in classic grind fashion. A buzz of brutal guitars and a crushing blast beat lay a foundation for Barney Greenway’s vicious vocal attack.

All of it uniquely bleeding together to paint a vivid picture of social unrest. Also on the release, Napalm Death offer the slower and textural new song 'No Impediment To Triumph (Bhopal)'.

A deeply resonant number that lyrically sheds light on the horrific Bhopal Gas Tragedy of 1984.
