Southern California’s INTRONAUT have posted a video teaser for their forthcoming new album, Valley of Smoke (peep the cover art), the first of many videos documenting the making of the album. The album is set for an October 12th release through Century Media Records. Watch the clip…

Additionally, the band will be heading out on tour with HELMET. Here’s what Sacha Dunable (vocals, guitars) had to say:

“It’s hard for us to believe that we’re finally done recording this album after months and months of stress and late nights. Here’s a summative look at the process of making this album. If you would have told me at 15 years old that I’d be touring with HELMET, well, I’d probably think that was really cool. Now, it’s happening, and I still think it’s really cool. INTRONAUT is very much looking forward to this tour.”
