New tracks round up

Constants – Those Who Came Before [Justin Broadrick remix]
Massachusetts prog metallers Constants are currently working on their third record, the follow up to last year’s The Foundation, The Machine, The Ascension. Plus, the effort is being produced by visionary Justin Broadrick, who has, here, remixed a version of ‘Those Who Came Before’ from TFTMTA. This should serve as a taster for what Broadrick will get up to at the desk. The haunting ambience is of course retained and still sounds unnervingly beautiful. But frankly, this can’t be used to even attempt to gauge what we can expect from Constants’ new album. You can listen to the track on their myspace HERE.


Cynic – Re-Traced preview
As reported before, Cynic played a brand new track live recently entitled ‘Wheels Within Wheels’. It’s the only new song that will be featured on a forthcoming EP which also includes re-interpretations of tracks from Traced In Air. Below is the official preview for the EP.

This idea is sketchy, as it’s been too long since Traced In Air for it to be considered a stop gap. It will undoubtedly echo the sentiments of all Cynic fans to say that a new full length would be much more welcomed.
