Converge Announce A New Collaborative Album

“We wanted to do something grander than the typical four-piece Converge music” says Converge vocalist Jacob Bannon in reference to the inspiration that eventually bloomed into ‘Bloodmoon:I’, the new collaborative album created by Converge alongside dark songstress Chelsea Wolfe, her bandmate/writing partner Ben Chisolm and Cave In vocalist/guitarist Stephen Brodsky.

The collaboration first began in 2016 at Roadburn festival in Holland, where the seven-piece performed revamped Converge material under the name Blood Moon. The energy and rapturously received appearance inspired the group to want to make music together, though it would take several years before their schedules allowed.

In late 2019, they were finally able to begin working on new material together at Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou’s God City Studio in Salem, Massachusetts. Future sessions were planned for 2020 but the pandemic would see the remainder of the record be finished remotely.

Produced by Ballou, ‘Bloodmoon:I’ is a harrowing and atmospheric collaborative effort that sees each performer working together and outside the comfort zones in order to create something that is truly unique to the project.

‘Bloodmoon:I’ is out November 19 2021 on CD/Digital via Epitaph Records and on vinyl June 24 2022 via Deathwish.
