US cult metal band Dawnbringer have completed work on their new album Nucleus, the follow-up to 2006's In Sickness And In Dreams. The album will be officially released on September 21st through Profound Lore Records.

Known as one of the metal underground's hidden gems and also known as one of the best American metal bands you haven't heard, Dawnbringer have been seen as one of the most startling and unique bands that the metal underground has ever produced.

Formed over 15 years ago by mastermind Chris Black, the band put out an EP followed by two killer and highly praised underground gems in the '90s, namely the Sacrament EP followed by the Unbleed and Catharsis Instinct full-lengths respectively.

And now Dawnbringer are on the brink of unleashing Nucleus, an album which will stand as one of the mightiest heavy metal albums you'll hear all year. While still incorporating many elements of metal , Nucleus showcases how traditional metal can uphold the classic heavy metal spirit (without regressing in an attempt to be "retro" or whatever) while at the same time come across as an offering that's forward-thinking and of course unique; an album which will help push the genre of heavy metal forward and help to lead the charge into metal's future.
