Bio:

"The heartbeat of any modern metropolis, its anger, aggression and urgency echo
through "Entrench". With full-length number five, KEN mode honour their noisier
roots delving deep into fertile metallic Post-Hardcore severity, while offering
their most creative and sonically diverse album yet. KEN mode was formed in 1999
by Canadian Royal Conservatory of Music trained musicians Jesse Matthewson and
brother Shane Matthewson who were then joined by Darryl Laxdal on bass. Their
band name was based on a quote of Henry Rollins and the acronym stands for "Kill
Everyone Now". After releasing several demos during the next four years, their
debut album "Mongrel" (2003) created a strong buzz that opened doors for touring
and shows with THE END, MASTODON, BURNT BY THE SUN, PELICAN and THE DREAM IS
DEAD among others. Follow-up "Reprisal" (2006) confirmed KEN mode as a new
powerhouse of their genre. Laxdal parted ways with the band and was first
replaced by Drew Johnston (ELECTRO QUARTERSTAFF) and later Jahmeel Russell (HIDE
YOUR DAUGHTERS), who recorded third album "Mennonite" (2008) with them. This
release saw the band embark on a European tour with Welsh rockers TAINT, for
which Chad Tremblay had meanwhile taken over bass duties. KEN mode's next album
"Venerable" (2011) was produced by Kurt Ballou of Converge and the trio hit the
road again with GAZA, BURIED INSIDE and later A LIFE ONCE LOST among others as
well as returning to Europe with then label-mates KYLESA and CIRCLE TAKES THE
SQUARE. Critical acclaim had gained a level that witnessed "Venerable" winning
the inaugural Heavy Metal/Hard Music Album of the Year Juno Award in Canada and
a nomination for Rock Album of the Year by the Western Canadian Music Awards.
KEN mode were ready for the next big step in their career and recorded and mixed
"Entrench" with Matt Bayles (MASTODON, ISIS, BOTCH). Get ready for a massive
punch in your face from KEN mode and "Entrench"!"

i liked one song from this. Probably won't pick it up. Far too many bands/ releases in the world anymore.

I'm thinking the same thing. There's just so much great stuff coming out right now, I'm not sure I can justify this one.

[versusexcalibur]

I'm biased. I love this band. I've heard the entire record and its their best album. I'm in for an orange.

Relapse Records has all 3 variants of this album available if anyone is interested.

Ordered the orange version from Relapse the other day and it already arrived.  It's a really awesome bright orange.  The album rips.  More people should be picking this up.
