Meanwhile, the band have also posted another new track from the record, ”Wisp Of Tow”, on their official website, Facebook and Myspace pages.

EAST OF THE WALL’s Ressentiment is a concept record in which the band focus on a more aggressive tone, an increased emphasis on sonic dissonance, and also integrating the use of vocals for the first time on an EOTW album. Engineered and co-produced by Will Putney at The Machine Shop (King Crimson, Clutch, Lamb Of God), the album closes out over 62 minutes in length, seamlessly meshing mind boggling tech-metal with serene melodiousness for the entire ride. Preorders for the record are being taken this week: http://translationloss.com/store/.

Ressentiment Track Listing: 01 “The Ladder”
02 “Salieri”
03 “Fool’s Errand”
04 “Wisp Of Tow”
05 “Ocean Of Water”
06 “It’s Always Worth While Speaking To A Clever Man”
07 “Fleshmaker”
08 “Maybe I’m Malaised”
09 “A Long Defeat”

“…that rare band that appeal to artsy indie types and metal nerds in equal measures; their dazzling blend of technical post-hardcore aggression, melody and indie sensibility is really one of a kind.” – MetalSucks.net

“East of the Wall have done everything different and nothing wrong. This is likely to be the single most eclectic album of 2010. 10/10″ - GravediggerMagazine.com

We’ve been promising that the unreleased Postman Syndrome demos would be coming out soon for a while now, but that now is no longer soon, it’s now now. And by now I mean in 3 months.

Here’s the thing though, we don’t want to just release these songs on iTunes, we want to print a proper release on an old fashioned compact disc, just like you would have bought in 2005 when the record would have come out. Actually, people stopped buying cds before 2005… but anyway…..

So this is where we need your help. We’re all broke because we’re in a band, and going on tour because we’re in a band, supporting our new record that’s actually a new record, Ressentiment, which comes out in July. We’re not the kind of band that makes money on tour…. well really we’re not the kind of band that makes money, period. In fact we lose money. We hemorrhage it.

In light of this blood loss we’re bringing it to the streets, like they did in UHF or Breakin’ II: Electric Boogaloo. More specifically, we’re taking preorders. If we can get 100 preorders our broke asses can afford to press the record. So preorder. Spread the word. Every order counts.

We’ll be playing a record release show for the album on May 22nd, and doing a couple old songs to say thanks before playing a full East Of The Wall set. So let us thank you. Help yourself by helping us help you. Go to www.postmansydrome.com to preorder the record and get a box full of free stuff in the process.

To be released via Translation Loss this July, Ressentiment is a concept record in which EAST OF THE WALL focus on a slightly different sound, integrating the use of vocals and an increased emphasis on sonic dissonance. The recording was engineered and co-produced by Will Putney at The Machine Shop (Clutch, King Crimson, Lamb Of God) in March through May of 2009.

The band have also announced a short run of Northeast live shows this month with labelmates Rosetta. They follow that in March with a month-long tour alongside The End Records’ artist Goes Cube, making appearances at two SXSW 2010 showcases.
