Upper Darby, PA. (Top40 Charts/ Relapse Records) Finnish hardcore heroes Unkind have revealed the album details for their upcoming sixth full-length entitled 'Pelon Juuret' (Translation: Roots of Fear). The album was recorded with producer Kari Nieminen at Noisecamp studios in Turku, Finland at the end of 2012. 'Pelon Juuret' continues in the direction of the group's previous work, offering up a furious fusion of d-beat hardcore crossed with a highly creative touch of atmospherics —as if Mogwai made a record of Tragedy covers or From Ashes Rise were influenced by Explosions In The Sky.
The album will be released on CD/LP/Digital via Relapse Records on July 9th in North America, July 8th in the UK / World, and July 5th in Germany, Benelux and Finland. A trailer for 'Pelon Juuret' is available here while exclusive pre-order packages are available via Relapse (https://www.relapse.com/unkind).
Unkind has previously released five full-length albums and a handful of vinyl-only releases. The band's catalog is available for streaming via their official Bandcamp page (https://unkindband.bandcamp.com/).
