UK Tech Metal Godfathers SiKth are considered by many to be the true blueprint to modern Progressive Metal... or Djent if you're so inclined. Yes, the Guitar Tone in Djent is pure Meshuggah, but bands like Periphery and similar owe their riffing styles almost entirely to this Southern England outfit. Don't believe me? Just listen:
Anyway, history lesson aside SiKth last released new music back in 2006 with the stellar Death Of a Dead Day and following a live return at Download Festival last year the group have announced their first new release in almost 10 years... and you can be part of it.
Ladies and gentleman we have two huge pieces of news for you today.For the first time since 2006's Death Of The Dead...

As with all Pledge Campaigns, there is a plethora of goodies that you can get your mitts on should you so desire (and you should, you should desire so hard) and even a UK tour coming up later in the year! Does this mean SiKth are back for good? Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
