JUDICIARY ANNOUNCE STALAGMITE ANGELS EP, SHARE CRUSHING NEW SINGLE "WALL OF SKULLS"
Texas metallic hardcore powerhouse Judiciary are officially back. The band has announced their upcoming EP, Stalagmite Angels, set for release on September 4 via Closed Casket Activities, while giving fans a ferocious first taste with the release of the new single and music video for "Wall of Skulls."
Over the last several years, Judiciary have cemented themselves as one of the most punishing names in modern hardcore, seamlessly blending thrash metal precision, metallic hardcore aggression, and earth-shaking grooves into a sound that's impossible to ignore. If "Wall of Skulls" is any indication, Stalagmite Angels isn't pulling any punches.
The single wastes no time getting down to business. Razor-sharp riffs, pummeling drums, and cavernous breakdowns collide with vocalist John Yarmuth's unmistakable intensity, creating a track that feels equal parts chaotic and calculated. Every riff is designed to hit harder than the last, making "Wall of Skulls" an instant contender for one of Judiciary's heaviest songs to date.
Then comes the moment nobody sees coming…
Hidden within the track's relentless assault is the unmistakable drone of a didgeridoo. Yes, a didgeridoo. It sounds absurd on paper, but somehow Judiciary make it work. Rather than feeling like a gimmick, the instrument adds a deep, primal atmosphere that makes the song feel even darker and more oppressive. It's an unexpected creative swing that pays off in a massive way, giving "Wall of Skulls" a unique identity while proving the band isn't afraid to experiment without sacrificing an ounce of heaviness.
The accompanying music video perfectly complements the song's suffocating intensity, matching every crushing riff with equally aggressive visuals and reinforcing the band's reputation as one of heavy music's most uncompromising acts.
With Stalagmite Angels arriving September 4 via Closed Casket Activities, Judiciary appear poised to deliver another essential release for fans of metallic hardcore. Preorder the album by clicking HERE!
