-(16)- share new song ‘After All’ from upcoming new album

Nearly 35 years on, -(16)- remain as one of the most enduring, hardest sounding rock and metal entities from North America. The San Diego band redefines heavy on their new album, Guides For The Misguided, out February 7.

Today, the band shares the second single “After All” from Guides For The Misguided. Watch the official visualizer on YouTube HERE & listen on all digital streaming services HERE.

Bobby Ferry returns at the helm as the band’s visceral vocalist and guitarist, and in true -(16)- fashion, belts out stories of pain and unhinged anguish – standout tracks like “Proudly Damned” see the band playing at the crowd while Ferry shares tales of personal strife and depression – “To defile and offend/These are the demons found within/The sullen face of communion’s alarm/It’s an incentive to do more harm” – Ferry is absolutely seething while the band plows through a virulent mix of rock, metal and sludge. Dion Thurman‘s pounding drum set, Bobby Ferry and Alex Shuster’s heavier-than-anything-else guitars and the lowest low end from bassist Barney Firks herald tones so low they’re nearly apocalyptic.

Guides For The Misguided closes with the soberingly titled “Kick out the Chair” – while the track sounds like a culmination of a 35 year career, the band show no signs of stopping; although the road ahead looks bleak, -(16)-‘s unrelenting trajectory continues upward.
