Alaskans Final Show

We are pleased to announce our first journey across the Northern border into Canada. We are making this special trip to help celebrate (and mourn) the final performance of our friends in the incredible band Alaskan. We will be joined by the crushingly heavy BIIPIIGWAN and sludge/stoner beasts in Swarm of Spheres. The proceeds from this show will go to an excellent cause – Ottawa Coalition To End Violence Against Women. We could not be more excited to be a part of this. ( http://www.octevaw-cocvff.ca/ )

Today is our last in the recording studio. It's been an amazing experience. Challenging and inspiring. Billy has taken "Obelisk" where it needed to go. Right into the depths of a black hole, spinning wildly, into an event horizon. ;) We can't wait to release it! A deep thank you to Billy Anderson, and everyone at BackroomStudios in N.J. Gonna miss that arcade super hard Kevin!

We have just added the last remaining "Sentinel" vinyl LPs and t-shirts into $20.00 bundles on our bandcamp: https://blacktable.bandcamp.com/merch We have big plans for 2016 with tours, new merch designs, and of course our upcoming release "Obelisk" currently in the works. We put these cheap Sentinel bundles together to clear out the dungeon for the new stuff and help fund our future plans. Thank you to everyone for the support over the years, it means the world to us! We can't wait to unveil the new things we have going on and the amazing people we are collaborating with. Look to the skies for additional info on all that in the coming weeks.

So Hideous and Barbarian at ABC No Rio in Manhattah, NY Saturday 24, 2015

Review: Planning For Burial, Black Table and So Hideous at ABC No Rio 10.24.15

“Up next were post-metal stalwarts Black Table who, fresh off a tour, hit the city for the first time in years. I had seen them play a basement in Allentown about a month prior and this performance was miles ahead of their last. The band is a tight unit, their bodies slaves to the unholy motion that this kind of music provokes. As you watch them you feel drawn up into incredible sonic landscapes, artfully crafted but also strangely human. Every aspect of this band is immaculate in its conception, from the bleak minor key melodies to the potent bass lines and the thunderous drumming. The point being - Black Table are one of the most unique and exciting bands out there right now and there resurgence upon the scene is sure to lead to great things.“ - Matt Bacon, Two Guys Metal Reviews

We are beyond humbled and excited. From Billy Anderson... 

”I am extremely happy to announce that I will be recording the new album by Ny/NJ shredders BLACK TABLE  https://www.facebook.com/blacktableband The album will be titled "OBELISK"...

The setup of this has been in the works for a while now, and i've been chomping at the bit waiting to "Officially" announce until dates/studios were solidified… We'll be recording in January on the east coast at a studio TBA shortly, and i'll be mixing it here in Portland at Everything Hz. I've been a fan of this band since before they contacted me, and now it's happening...So needless to say I feel fortunate, inspired and most of all- fucking ready to slay this thing-then revive it so we can enjoy killing it again... I couldn't be more stoked.  Watch out for this one…you should probably wear a helmet.

More news on this and other exciting things soon….”

Hello people and magi! We have exciting news to share!

We are honored to announce *officially* that we will be recording our new album "Obelisk" with Billy Anderson!

He's worked with Amenra (Mass V), Agalloch (The Serpent and the Sphere), Neurosis (Through Silver and Blood), Bell Witch (Four Phantoms), and Sleep (Dope Smoker) just to mention a few.

We cannot wait to get into the studio this January! Thank you for supporting us in anyway you could - it lead us here. We hope you enjoy the new record.  We are pouring in our blood, sweat and souls.
