Finally! Orbs (BTBAM, ex-Fear Before) are Finishing Up their New Album

If you’re unfamiliar with Orbs, now would be the time to acquaint yourself.

Featuring Dan Briggs of Between the Buried and Me, Ashley Ellyllon (Abigail Williams, Cradle of Filth), along with ex-members of Fear Before, Orbs have been a favorite here at RRS for quite a while. In fact, we put their 2010 album, Asleep Next To Science, on our Best Albums of 2010.

We knew the band had an entire record’s worth of material written for a while, but had no clue when it would see the light of day. Then Sunday the band posted the following brief teaser of some new material, with Briggs in the studio working on a B-side for the album. Check that out below. We also included their track “A Man Of Science.”

New Orbs is coming in 2014.
