Marking a rare meeting point between two of extreme music’s most uncompromising voices, See You Next Tuesday and Chop7times will release a new split EP titled Brothers on May 15th. The project highlights the creative rapport between the collaborators while giving each act space to push their sound in distinct directions. To accompany the announcement, we’ve included an embedded stream of the full EP below, offering a first listen to one of the year’s most intriguing heavy releases.
See You Next Tuesday are a grindcore band from suburban Michigan. The quartet was founded for a laugh in 2004, but quickly built a serious following that led to an eventual signing with Ferret Music and the release of the band’s scathing debut album, Parasite, in early 2007. After a hiatus in 2010, the band reformed/regrouped in 2022, releasing a series of albums, including an electronic forward remix album and a drum swapping collaborative double EP.
CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP (aka Chop7Times, Chop7x, Chopx7) is a one man noisegrind act from New Haven, CT. Blending digital drums and bass, walls of harsh noise, and violent screams, CHOPx7 has been tearing a path up and down the east coast since 2019.
This collaborative release is based off of a book entitled The Brothers’ War, a 1998 fantasy novel by Jeff Grubb; it is the first book in the Magic: The Gathering: Artifacts Cycle, detailing the epic conflict between brothers Urza and Mishra on the world of Dominaria. The book explores the origins of Urza and the magical and technological arms race that leads to cataclysmic events. For the album, side A, See You Next Tuesday’s Chris wrote his lyrics based on the perspective of the Brother Urza, while Chop wrote his lyrics from Mishra’s perspective for side B.
Brothers was produced, engineered and mixed by Drew Slavik. Mastered by Jeff McKinnon at Controlled Sound Studios. It will be released by Sundown Records on May 15th, 2026. Preorder, here.
