Mean Season will release a new album titled "Go To Hell" Through Indecision Records on May 12th.

Melding of hardcore and metal is a given these days and not something that you give a second thought.

That was not the case in the early 1990s when Mean Season, among other like-minded bands, was experimenting with their shared love of '80s hardcore and metal.

A conversation about some riffs that needed a home sparked the idea of a recording session, and by extension, the first Mean Season album since 1994's "Grace."
