... Finnish thrashers KRATEROS have released their latest single, "Uticensis," taken from their forthcoming EP, "Lost in Translation," due out January 30th. Says the band: " “As the second single from our upcoming EP 'Lost in Translation,' 'Uticensis' showcases the band’s more aggressive output with fast, precise riffing and all-out screaming, without compromising on musicality or finesse. As is often the case, the music was written long before the lyrics came to be. This time, inspiration was found in an unexpected place, as the song got its subject from a book of collected and translated philosophical texts by Seneca the Younger that our songwriter Saku received as a birthday gift from a friend. Some of these writings were about the trials and tribulations of Cato the Younger (also known by the epithet 'Uticensis'), which sparked an immediate idea for the lyrics. This song is also a favorite of the whole band." Check out the single here:

Says the band's Charlotte Marlen Midtun: "We chose to shoot a video for 'Down In Flames' because of the song’s theme of pressure, struggle, and unity which felt naturally visual, and also because it’s the title track off our new album. Our first idea was a dark, minimal performance setting, but it evolved into using a circle formation to symbolize fellowship, contrasted with isolated shots of myself to show the ‘back against the wall’ feeling of the lyrics. The aesthetic was inspired by darker alternative rock videos that use light and space to create emotional tension. We focused on simple, strong imagery of shadows, limited light, and confined spaces to mirror the song’s emotional weight.” Check it out here ...

We tried to create something cool and interesting, taking inspiration from the likes of MCR, Soundgarden, and Ozzy Osbourne.

... Sentinels of New Dawn," the new album from AQUILLA, will be released on October 31st via High Roller Records. Says the band's Peter Slammer: "There is an existing lore within our songs. We are all enthusiasts of both classic and modern sci-fi creations, and thus our music tells a story of mankind's last remaining survivors who decide to settle on a distant planet called Yvad'a'ra. The previous album was where that concept was fully developed and is continued on this record. The story picks up some time after the previous one. The titular 'New Dawn' is what humans called this new era of their history on the planet, where hundreds of settlements were established, and different fractions arose, fractions that aren't necessarily friendly towards each other. So we have mad space pirates ('Plunder And Steel', crazy berserk-like mercenaries ('Battalion 31') or technological overlords ('Technocrat's Tyranny'). And everyone fights each other, just like in real life. This was also quite a challenge for Captain Paradox as a lyricist and joining in to a band that has this type of pre-established lore. Catching up with the story and adjusting the writing approach were necessary, so it would fit the concept, as both 'Sentinels Of New Dawn' and 'Mankind's Odyssey' are pretty much concept albums. The lore itself isn't that strict really, apart from the general concept of mankind on a distant planet, so it leaves a lot of room for imagination, creativity and open interpretations for the audience as well" ...

According to frontman Fraser Simpson: "Summer 2022 we were sailing down the interstate heading from Houston, Texas, to Austin when all of a sudden the worst thing happened - no brakes. I was driving at the time and so to not create panic, I didn't mention our predicament to the rest of the guys until I managed to grind the van to a halt with what brake fluid we had left. What happened next was a week of being stranded in Austin (s/o Rare Bloom for letting us crash) while we waited for an out of stock part to arrive to fix our van. The mechanic then said our vehicle was so rusted he wouldn't advise driving 50 yards down the street, we cancelled shows, we ran out of money, we considered flying home. The poignant lyric 'Nothing ever goes our way' repeats throughout the song because honestly, nothing has ever gone our way. But here we are, back again, doing the thing we love because we're young and dumb and would like another excuse to get in a van and tour the continent. To quote another line from the song: 'Nothing like a little bit of latent fear, of dying young and dumb without my loved ones near' - sign us up!" Check it out here ...

Like, why can’t I write an evergreen holiday song for the goths, punks, death rockers, and freaks who live it before and after October?

As luck would have it and as sometimes is the case, what came off my fingers straight away felt right.” Check it out here ...

We have a synergy whenever we get together; it’s infectious, and things happen quickly. Tyler jumped behind the drums, and I started jamming the verse groove with the guitar. Within minutes, we had carved out the entire bones of the song in an old-school way of a jam. Lyrically speaking. ‘Ghost’ is something we can all relate to. It’s all about trying to live up to the voices inside your head, staying away from the insecurities and fear we all have running in our minds. It is about facing your fears, accepting the mind wars, and ultimately conquering them." Check it out here ...

Says Zaki: "'The Great Path of Reconstruction' symbolizes a journey of ridding toxicity from one's surroundings in order to position themselves for success. The video metaphorically and subliminally displays chaos in reverse order as things return to their original state. The idea behind the video was really to capture the beauty in the scenery and since each riff in the song changes keys, have a different color grade essentially represent the melodic feeling of what is happening musically."

Says keyboard player Kevin Snell, “We thought it would be good to end the (occasionally grueling) sessions with a light cover of a popular song. I picked ‘Abracadabra’ because I always kinda liked the original...but also thought it was cheesy as hell. It's kinda poppy for an otherwise pretty heavy album that we had just created. Mike C loved it and tuned to a drop A on a 7 string guitar to give it some heavy guitar crunch. JB (Bechdel) actually loves a good digital dance groove (think early Ministry) and went to town on the synths and drum machines really taking my demo to the next level. Bam! It's done and the sessions ended on a really fun note.” Check it out here ...

... "Always Moving: The Strange Multiverse of Voivod," by author Jeff Wagner, will be released on November 17th. The book covers the over forty year career of the band. According to Wagner: "It’s a total honor to have written this book. The band were entirely forthcoming and super-helpful with their time, as was their manager, James MacLean. I spoke to every living member – except one – for this book. I also spoke with folks like Monte Conner, Brian Slagel, Glen Robinson, Wayne Archibald, Harris Johns, Ian Christe, and members of Opeth, Cynic, Anekdoten, Virus, Deceased, Sindrome, Agalloch, Therion, Enslaved, The Accused and Gorguts – and a bunch of other folks! – to help get the most rounded, complete picture of the band’s influence and impact from people who have been close to them in a variety of capacities. And I held nothing back. There’s almost no stone left unturned, hence the size of the book (540 pages). Even the two Appendixes are total nerd-fests that I think fans will find amusing and interesting. I know I’m psyched with the book, as a fan, so I think a lot of other diehard Voïvodians will be too.” For more information or to pre-order the book, click here ...

Says Snider: “I make music to return people to belief in themselves,” says Snider. “These songs are frequency as a remedy for the loneliness we all face on our journeys. I wrote them to lift heaviness, to fragment old fear, and to remind listeners that joy can be engineered from deep inside ourselves.”And, yes, Jesse Blaze Snider is the son of TWISTED SISTER's Dee Snider ...

There would be less of a phase, cause if your demons can play well together then you’re forever living in the 'honeymoon phase'. 'Creature;' although a more aggressive song, its a love song but not in the way most would expect." Check it out here ...

... It was an evening of heavy metal at the Majestic Ventura Theater not to be soon forgotten. With the mighty DARK ANGEL returning to the stage after far too long, The Extinction Level Event tour was loaded with incredible performances and walls of killer music. First up, VOID took the stage, delivering their brand of straight-forward thrash and getting the early audience into the mood for some rock'n'roll. Veterans HIRAX next took the stage, with legendary frontman Katon W. De Pena whipping the still-growing audience into a frenzy. This man knows how to control a stage and the band is furiously entertaining and talented. Said the guy sitting next to me, "HIRAX is one of the greatest bands of all time! Even better than METALLICA." No faint praise, but I'll let you decide after you see this show. The legendary SACRED REICH delivered a raging performance, the highpoint of which was their biggest hit, "Surf Nicaragua," which swirled into one of the evening's most energetic circle pits. Finally, DARK ANGEL took the stage, shaking the walls of the Ventura Theater with their crushing sound and fury, performing some of their greatest hits and several tracks from their new album, "Extinction Level Event," released just the day before. This band has gone through more than its share of line-up changes (and losses) over the years but you'd never know it from the energy on stage and, any chance to catch Gene Hoglan beat the crap out of those drums is worth every second. The tour continues through October 16th so don't miss it when it comes through your town. (Click here for tour dates, etc.) ...

... ALLBROOK STATION have released their new single, "Crown," taken from their album "All We Have Is Pain," due out next year. Says the band's vocalist/songwriter Burke Louis: "I was once told, 'You can have smaller dreams or better friends.' At the time, I was standing at a crossroads- picking between a safe career in finance or diving headfirst into music. I’d been writing for a couple years, and one line kept haunting me: 'I got a crown but it’s not big enough.' That’s all I had. I called up Jessie Gomez (long before we were writing partners) and Crown was born. But not the version you’re hearing now. This version came two years later, after life had kicked the door in: a divorce, the murder of a
close friend, being robbed by a business partner, and having to leave my dream home in California to crash in a room at Jessie’s place in Utah. That’s when 'Crown' took on a new meaning. It became a declaration. A warning shot. A refusal to stay small. This is for anyone who’s been told they’re not good enough. I’m not just coming for the crown… I’m saying it was mine all along, and it’s still not enough for me. I want it all." Check it out here ...

Says the band's Ben Roy: "'The Aftermath' is a break up song, plain and simple. But, more than that, it's about two very different people, from two very different worlds, who fell in love and tried to find common ground. Unfortunately, that bullshit may work in movies, but it rarely plays out positively in real life. And the aftermath of these types of relationships is often a painful spiral of misunderstandings, unfair judgements, and disconnections. Don't fall in love. Get a pet." Check out the single here ...

... PALLBEARER will release "Foundations of Burden: 2025 Redux," on November 7th. The release is a "fully reconstructed version of their 2014 landmark album." Says the band's Joseph D. Rowland: “Since the time that we finally committed the original version of 'Foundations' to print, we knew it would be a sonic space we would eventually revisit. Its form did not unfold according to the original version as the numerous file corruptions, delays, and exhausted studio budget compounded into a final feverish push to finish the mix. We were relieved to get those massive and difficult mixes turned into finished songs just in time, but not without a nagging thought; we had to sacrifice much of the nuance we had spent so much time crafting. In the time since then, we have played most of the songs from 'Foundations' more times than we can count, and they remain some of our favorites. The songs have grown with us. And while we hold a deep love and attachment to what we created in 2014, we also gained a fuller understanding of how we would want to re-present them if we had a chance. After years of discussion, listening and learning, we found ourselves in the position to fulfill that vision.” ...

... AEON EMPIRE have announced that Arpie Gamson will be their new vocalist, after Jota Fortinho left the band. Says the band's bassist, Ronnie: "I have been aware of Arpie's YouTube videos for a couple of years already and I even left him some nice comments on some of his videos back then, but I hadn't known him personally. This year, as we were going through a line-up change, it was a perfect opportunity to reach out to him and get to know him better. At this point, I am confident to say that we have laid down a new—and importantly, stable—foundation for the future of the band. There are a couple of things about Arpie that I believe work in our favor in the long run. First of all, he has pretty much the same musical roots as the rest of the band and I have. Musically, a perfect match, you could say. He is from a similar background and region, which makes both the relationship and logistics easier. It already feels like I have known him for a long time. Last but not least, he is totally killing it behind the microphone. We have already recorded 2 new songs together and he sounds like a rock star. He knows what he is doing, he comes up with ideas, he is enthusiastic about the band and he simply has a great voice for this genre. There is no need to use autotune on his vocal tracks. He is the real deal and I can't wait until we release our new music to the world!" For more information, click here ...

... Finnish metallers SOULGRIND will soon release their tenth album, "Ad Pulchram Mortem." Says the band's guitarist Lord Heikkinen: "It’s already been 15 years since the last Soulgrind release. Time has truly flown by. Occasionally, Azhemin and I would tinker with something small, but it always came to a halt for one reason or another. Tanya Lilith was living in Austria, which also slowed down the process. Whenever Tanya visited Finland, we’d demo a little something. However, during 2024, our enthusiasm grew, and songs began to emerge rapidly. There was also a lot of material stored away in the drawers. At times, it felt like maybe even too much. For every recording session, there was something new and exciting to discover, and at the same time, even grander things would be created. In other words, we’ve never had a shortage of material, quite the opposite. The only thing in short supply has been time. But now, Soulgrind has been given its place on the timeline once again. For the album 'Ad Pulchram Mortem,' we made 12 tracks. Of these, we chose "Jylhä metsämies" as the single. "Jylhä metsämies" is the story of a man who walks his own path, bowing to nothing not above, not below, not on this earth. The lyrics reflect Soulgrind very well itself. The music is very self-directed and copies no one or anything. This has always been the case and will remain so. The band sounds like itself. Musically, "Jylhä metsämies" covers the band's journey from Whitsongs, through Kalma/Pakana, to The Tuoni Pathway, while also bringing in much that is new. All in all, in our opinion, it's a brilliant way to open a new chapter. The album itself contains much more, with even some surprising material. During the remainder of the year, we aim to finish up the Ad Pulchram Mortem album and release it, and of course, the desire to play live is strong. The package still needs some perfecting, and hopefully, we'll get onto the stages during 2026. The Original Paganhood is back." "Check out "Jylhä metsämies" here ...

Says the band's singer/bassist Peder Bergstrand: “This is the version they didn’t let us do back then — only better. I can’t wait for people to see it. When we handed in 'Ode to Io' to be printed back in 1999, we had this elaborate silver screen print for the cover. But the external label tasked with making the vinyl were cheapskates. They forced the 2LP playing time into one LP, resulting in subpar audio quality. To finish off, they printed the elaborate silver cover as plain grayscale. Needless to say, we were pretty gutted by the result. Ever since, I’ve dreamt of making THAT version, doing it justice. That is exactly what we’ve done with the 25th anniversary version of ‘Ode to Io'” ...

... MORON POLICE have released their new single, "Pachinko, Pt 1." Says the band's frontman Sondre Skollevoll: It's a 12-minute long bastard of a song that we hope will excite you, as we build towards the release of our new album! This is the third song I wrote for the album, and it has a special place in my very heart of hearts, simply because the whole thing appeared (riffs, structure and vocal melody) at once. Out of nothing. Now, that's usually how I write music. I fiddle with an instrument and stuff happens. But this is the first time a song of this length and magnitude has popped into existence for me. So, I was very excited at the time, and I am very excited to now be able to share it with all of you--no matter the reception (although the reception has been great!) Usually, the songs I write tend to have a political side to them. This, however, is a concept album, so there's not too much of it this time around. I sort of lamented this a bit during the process of recording/mixing, as there's such a mind-bogglingly amount of terrible shit happening around the world that I would certainly like to comment on it. Aggressively. But the insane amount of suffering we see daily now, in 4K, no less, is overwhelming. And at this point I think some weird ass prog metal from Norway might better serve as a small distraction from the hells of the earth, than another hat thrown into the political ring. For now. All this to say: we hope you like this weird song and that it finds you well, wherever you are out there." Check it out here ...

Says the band's rhythm guitarist Ari: “The riffs are in the vein of the late 80s speed/thrash wave, the more melodic side of it, to be exact. There’s also a nod to the Dead Boys, to add some punk rock in it." Adds lead vocalist Kristian: “It’s about dealing with poverty in the cities. In some cases, ableist and hostile architecture along with segregation are used to control people. Removing the slum does not remove the causes of the slum. But clearing forests to make space for new houses is worse than the demolition of unsafe houses. Demolition and rebuilding boost the economy as jobs are created …but who’s buying?” Check it out here ...

... Doom metallers WIZARDS OF HAZARDS has released a video for their track, "Too Late." Says the band: "It all started with a riff — originally played in reverse. But in Ville’s head, it kept flipping around. When we finally tried it the other way, everything suddenly made sense. The groove locked in, the energy clicked, and the song found its true shape. The drums were recorded in full takes, capturing the raw feel of a live performance — we picked the best take, the one that had just the right momentum. Amir brought his signature laid-back style to the bass, composing much of the line on the spot in the studio, letting instinct lead the way. Vocally, Ville and producer Sam nailed an intense drive that powers the whole track. Originally, the verses felt a bit cramped — until a breakthrough moment where the final line was lifted to the top of the next section. Suddenly, the lyrics had room to breathe, and the phrasing came alive. And the final touch? A subtle effect on the intro riff with a volume drop — making the moment the full band kicks in hit like a cannon blast. 'Too Late' is a song that came to life through experimentation, intuition, and instinct — and we can’t wait for you to hear it." And you can hear it now at this link ...

Says the band's Adam Poustie: “We are all massive nerds about horror and gaming; we had a single, ‘From Beyond,’ that was about Stuart ‘Re-Animator’ Gordon's film of the same name. ‘Trapped In A House With A Maniac’ is a total 80s horror trope. It’s about someone going into a house and there's someone in there that wants to kill them, but the hunter soon becomes the hunted. It's that total schlocky kind of vibe and it's a fun one. A lot of people have gravitated towards it when we play it live because it has a very anthemic chorus to it.” Check it out here ...

... SCARDUST have released their new single/video, "Touch of Life 1 - In Your Eyes," featuring Ross Jennings. The track comes from the band's new studio album, "Souls," due out July 18th. Says the band about the video: "'Touch Of Life' is a three-part musical trilogy that retells the story of Pygmalion - with a twist. It serves as an allegory for the life of an artist, or really anyone striving to become a better version of themselves. The song follows the greatest sculptor on Earth, who cannot find a woman he deems beautiful enough to be worthy of his craft - or his love. Eventually, he chooses to sculpt the most beautiful woman his imagination can conjure. He falls in love with his own creation and begs the gods to bring her to life. This is where the original myth ends - but for us, it’s just the beginning. We took the narrative in a new direction. As musical performers, we see ourselves as both the sculptor and the sculpture - constantly shaping ourselves, day by day, in pursuit of unreachable standards. It’s a process full of beauty, but also emotional weight. The full trilogy will be released as a live performance video on YouTube. In addition, the first part will be released as a single from the album. We’re especially excited to share this work with the incredible Ross Jennings (Haken), who performed in the original studio version and also joined us live - the very performance from which this video was recorded and filmed.” Check it out here ...

... STRIPPING THE PISTOL have releases their new single/video, "Sunshine in the Rain." Says the band: "In a bleak world people often don’t see the sunshine through the rain. For many music can provide the sunshine. We believe this song can do that for some of those listeners. While it has a feel of a ballad, we weave in some heavy elements. The ying and yang works. The dual vocals represent the two extremes of life. We believe this is a special song the like of which isn’t heard today. The late great Roy Thomas Baker who produced all the amazing Queen records was a huge fan of the song. He claimed it sounded like music the greats made in the 1970s. Not that it is a 1970s inspired track, but that it is audacious enough to try and reach those heights." Check it out here ...

Friday, June 20, 2025

The song hides a love story within the verses, then slams the listener with a pounding anthemic chorus in true RIKETS fashion." Check it out here ...

Says the band's Matt Waltz: "This song’s about the fire that wakes you up when the world doesn’t. The sun doesn’t rise or set for you — it just keeps spinning. If you want something, really want it, you’ve gotta bleed for it. You’ve gotta be willing to give up everything — sleep, comfort, peace — just to get a shot at being the best. I’ve lived that. I’ve felt the weight of proving myself when no one thought I could. But when you’ve got something to prove and nothing left to lose? That’s when you’re at your most dangerous. Dominate’ isn’t just a word — it’s a mindset. You take the hits. You push through the pain. You don’t wait — you take what’s yours. That’s how I see it. That’s how I live it. This one’s for anyone who's ever been counted out — and came back to own it all." Check it out here ...

... SERPICO has released their latest single/video, "Rock N'Roll Is Not Dead," taken from their forthcoming album, "Dressed In Flesh," due out September 12th. Says the band's Jani Serpico: "The phrase 'Rock n’ roll is not dead' has always been close to my heart and plays such a big part in my life and in our band that I decided to write a song about it as soon as inspiration struck. It took a few years, but I believe the time is ripe right now because today’s rock n’ roll is basically missing exactly what I have always admired in rock n’ roll music: originality and authenticity. The idea for the song is actually based on the fact that at some point a large part of people in the music media were shouting that “Rock is dead” and blah blah… That is absolutely not true, rock n’ roll is alive and doing well. I hope commercial radio stations and other mainstream media would wake up to this as well." Check it out here ...

... Progressive hard rockers HEADLESS will released their cover version of MEGADETH's "I Thought I Knew It All," featuring a guest appearance by Andy Martongelli. Says the band's Walter Cianciusi: "Having my bandmate in Ellefson - Andy Martongelli - on lead guitar gives a profound significance to this track. It’s a heartfelt tribute to our shared mentor David Ellefson, who wrote this tune along with Mustaine, Friedman & Menza back in the 'Youthanasia' days. At the same time the song offers a glimpse into the heaviness and performance to be expected from Headless in the near future." Regarding the cover track, Cianciusi adds: 'It’s an obscure song which Megadeth never played live, but I grew up binge listening to this one. It is likely my all-time favorite from the Vic camp. And the lyrics seem to delve into the recent, rather shocking events that have transpired for Headless. People close to the band have proven to be the opposite of what I believed…so ‘I Thought I Knew It All’ became a commentary to my inner feelings, a caption upon a lost friendship.” Check it out here ...

... AIRFORCE has released the latest video/single from their recently released album, "Acts of Madness." Says the band about "The Fury": "The Fury is a song about a nice person having an inner Demon, and attempting to control both the good and the Bad. An inner battle between Dark and Light, good and Evil, a sort of Dr Jeckyl and Mr Hyde situation. To a much lesser degree, this is something that a lot of people have said they have going on inside them. Strangely enough, the song title inspiration came from the Bad Pitt Movie 'Fury' about a disabled Sherman Tank fighting a superior force. Tony had the initial idea of an evil entity deep inside a person fighting to get out, and had written some lyrics and an outline melody. Unusually for Airforce the song then came together quite quickly. Tony took the song idea to Chops home studio and Chop perfected the guitar Riffs. All of Airforce worked on 'The Fury' over the period of a few weeks. Everything about this song seemed to fit just right, and we knew we had a good song progressing well. Finally, we took 'The Fury' to Jez Coad our producer who added a few more ideas, which included slowing down part of the mid-section. We are very pleased with the way this song turned out when it was completed." Check out the video here ...

Says the band's Jesse Leach: "'Aftermath' is a song about the realization of a tragic event or a war, and the strength it takes to rebuild and the hindsight of the loss, betrayal, and madness that transpired while going through it all. I think we can all relate to this in one way or another. We see daily the tragedies of humanity as well as the destruction of a place we call home. We have taken so much from our planet and ripped the scales in the incorrect direction. This song is not just a desperate song with a sense of sadness and anger — it is a call to arms. I'm urging my fellow humans to rise above the helplessness and despair. I want people to see we need to put one foot in front of the other and start to rebuild our lives. Be it from an abusive relationship, a financial hardship, a death of a loved one, or mourning yet another disaster unleashed upon the natural world." Check out "Aftermath" here ...

... MAD MAX are at work on an "extensive" re-release of their debut album, plus a new studio album, to commemorate the band's 45th anniversary. Says the band's Jürgen Breforth about the anniversary and the debut re-release: "When I founded Mad Max in 1981 in my home town of Münster, I would never have dreamed that I would be celebrating the band's 45th anniversary in 2026. I'm very proud and grateful for that. Of course I want to celebrate the anniversary together with the Mad Max fans, because these fans have loyally supported us for 45 years and we've been able to play concerts all over the world. The celebrations will begin at the end of the year with the re-release of the songs that started it all. Not only will the first album be released under the title 'Heavy Metal,' but also the EP 'In Concert' with the first 4 songs that we composed and released as a band. There will also be unreleased photo material, a detailed history, liner notes and many other surprises.” As for the upcoming studio album, "Stories of Destiny," Breforth continues: "For this album, we have come up with something very special for the fans. Of course, I don't want to give too much away yet, but with 'Weapons Of Love' and 'Until The End Of Time,' there will be two previously unreleased Mad Max songs from 1991 and a spectacular duet that nobody expected. But that's not all: I had the great honor of composing songs together with many stars from the rock business, of which there will be Mad Max versions of these tracks on “Stories Of Destiny” for the first time. You'll be surprised who will be involved." For more information, visit the band's website here ...

... BEYOND FORGIVENESS has released their new single, "Drown in Your Promise," taken from their upcoming album, due out July 18th. Says the band: " "This song is about broken promises, and falling into a repetitive cycle of how you always find reasons to get your hopes up again, but then get devastated over and over again. Talia really likes to think about emotional concepts by using metaphors. This sort of thing seemed very similar to the cycle of rains and floods and evaporation, and storms all over again, which became the foundational concept for the song’s clean vocal lyrics. Then Richard wrote the heavy vocal lyrics from the perspective and role as an antagonist in a dramatic sense, if you consider the clean vocal lyrics as the role of the protagonist, so the exchange between the two vocal styles is also meant to be somewhat a dialogue or characterization of the sort of conflict embodied in the song’s concept."

This is by far our biggest and most ambitious project to date. Releasing this over 10 minute epic track both as a single and a music video seemingly goes against everything the music industry tells you in terms of do’s and dont's, but we decided to bend the rules a bit and release “Winds of Time” as the lead single from our upcoming album. With this track we get a chance to openly reflect on how the past is still very much alive and relevant in today’s world, where the same tragic neglect of human lives and rights that devastated prior generations, is unfolding in many corners of the world today. The message of the song paired with the classic yet modern sound of our band come together to create something truly unique and powerful.” Taken from the band's upcoming album, due out in October, you can check out "Winds of Time" here ...

My grandmother was telling a story she loves to tell, about how after my grandfather passed away, when I was really young, I would ask her, “What kind of car does Jesus drive?” Because my grandfather was really into cars. I never got to know my grandfather very well since I was so young when he passed but this song sort of transformed into an ode to the kind of guy that I came to know him as from stories and photographs, the blue-collar, hard-working, salt-of-the-earth working class individual who’s back the world is built upon but who the world is nevertheless constantly spitting on in return. The song seemed to be a perfect fit for both the album closer and the lead single." Check it out here ...

... LACABRA have released their new animated video, "Nothing," taken from their recently released album debut album. Says vocalist Lance Neatherlin about the new video: "The lyrics on ‘Nothing‘ were written by Didier Almounzi (Dragonforce, Razor of Occam), who played in the band that was the precursor to Lacabra – Locistellar. It is about what hard drugs really do to the psyche—how they twist reality, convincing the mind that living every day is the real burden, not the addiction itself. Conceptually, the video is about a white collar, working stiff, who grinds himself into a nub, working endless hours in the corporate world and goes completely off the rails in a drug fueled frenzy. The video was created by Maria Nicheva Wicklund (facebook.com/maria.n.wicklund), who also did the animation for our ‘Fractured’ video. She has a very unique style, knocks it out of the park every time we work with her, and goes way beyond our expectations being the perfectionist she is." Check out "Nothing" here ...

Friday, June 6, 2025

... WE LOST THE SEA have released their latest music video, taken from their new album, "A Single Flower," due out July 4th via Translation Loss Records. Says the band about the new video: “The video follows a sole protagonist (the very talented Emma Dunstan) who dances and writhes her way around a cursed space to outrun her inner demons only to embrace the darkness in the end. To tie it in to the wider theme of the album it references inspiration from Frida Kahlo, a revolutionary, artist and somewhat cursed individual herself. This song is meant to be a protest, a war cry against evil. It has two distinct halves that transition from dark to light which brings it into the world that we’ve created for the new record.” Check it out here ...

... DRAGONBORN have released their new video, "Revenge of Pagan Swords," from their upcoming album, "Valdatron." Says the band's guitarist Ekrem Kani: "'Revenge Of Pagan Swords' ignites Dragonborn’s saga with devastating force, the war cry of King Valderion, last of the Ironblooded. Its lyrics deliver not an invitation to reflect, but a decree to destroy: a rebellion against the spiritual erosion and false salvation that plague the ancient world. From the very first strike, the song draws blood. The opening riff crashes like the unsheathing of a blade - a sonic flash of steel that signals the beginning of war. Rhythm guitars and twin pedal interplay shape a march of militant precision and raw defiance. Following the first vocal assault, two key melodic lines emerge: The first - cold and melancholic - mourns the loss of a once-proud world. The second - triumphant and soaring - speaks of victory, blades raised to the sky, and the flame of return. This duality resurfaces in the second half with renewed power, amplifying both memory and rage. Melody and violence become inseparable - like the blade and its echo. Beneath the vocals, a chilling orchestral texture rises - echoing the cries of ancient ritual gatherings. These spectral sounds pierce through the chaos with otherworldly clarity, adding a mystical and ominous sharpness to the composition. Symphonic layers rise like war choirs, guitars crash like iron, and drums strike with the weight of prophecy.
This is not merely a song. It is the awakening of Valdatron. The first battle cry of a people reborn in fire and frost." Check it out here ...

I just thought let's write a song from the perspective of someone who is aware of that situation - trapped by the design of the Basilisk and has to create it to save themselves, but at the same time creating something that's going to punish 90% of the globe."

... Punkers INDECENT BEHAVIOR have released the video/single for their track, "The Story Never Ends." Says the band's singer, Henrik Bergmann: "'I think I fucked it up again. It's a brand new day but the story never ends.' You believe that this time, everything will be different. This time, you’ll get it right. You've failed in the same way far too often but not this time. A fresh start. And yet, that moment returns. You're lying awake, staring at the ceiling, asking yourself: 'What happened? What did I miss? Was it my fault again?' Like many things in life, the weight gets a little lighter when you share it. When you find someone who truly gets you. When we met All To Get Her from Switzerland last year, it instantly clicked. After a few shows together, what started as a connection turned into real friendship — and out of that friendship, this song was born." Check out the video here ...

There’s been too many times where I’ve kept friendships just because I felt like I had to or I was too scared to stand up for myself, but this song is the complete release of all of that built up hurt and rage. I know when they hear it they’ll know it’s about them, which makes me love the song even more.” Check it out here ...

Says Carson: “It was really hard getting a video done for this project at first, just due to our touring schedules this past year, but all the stars finally aligned on the Final Ride Tour. Adrienne Beacco (Exceleration Media) was on the road with Paralandra during the tour, so we were able to put our heads together and create the concept for this video in just a couple of weeks, and then shot it at the Newton Theatre in NJ one day, just a couple of hours before soundcheck. It’s always a pleasure working with Adrienne; she always gets my vision, and I have to give major props to George for showing up and relearning the song at half speed for this shoot. But beyond all the details, I’m just thrilled that Casandra’s Crossing now has a music video to go along with the album.” Taken from their recently released album, "Garden of Earthly Delights," you can check out the single here ...

The riff was just there when I grabbed my acoustic one day and then the whole thing just unraveled.” Check it out here ...

It's a team I've known for a long time and hold in high regard: they played a key role in Sybreed's career and have always demonstrated a highly collaborative approach, which is in line with my own work ethos and was one of my non-negotiable conditions when I decided to return to music as an active artist. I also know that there is a real cultural affinity that will facilitate our exchanges. So I was very happy when they told me they wanted to sign Locus Noir after I contacted them, and I know I can count on the Listenable Records team, especially since they see as much potential in this new band as I do. This makes me very confident – and as optimistic as one can be when playing this kind of music – about the release of Locus Noir's debut album, Shadow Sun, and the next steps in this new musical adventure." ...

... PURE OBSESSIONS & RED NIGHTS have released their brand-new single, "As Dirty as It Cleans." Says the band's Phillippe Deschemin: "The saga of Mr. Strangler continues, and it seems the serial killer is once again consumed by his obsessions. After the darkwave atmosphere of the Night Trilogy, I felt the urge to reconnect with my '90s roots—grunge and alternative rock influences like Nirvana, Bush, Smashing Pumpkins, and Alice in Chains. I dug out legendary pedals from that era—like the RAT and the DS-1—in an attempt to capture the raw essence of '90s rock. In an age where rock and metal often sound overproduced and soulless, I wanted to strip things back to the basics: a few pedals, a guitar, strong melodies, and pure energy." Check it out here ...

It was divided into two albums: 'Solare' (daytime) and 'Lunare' (nighttime). Partnering up with Frontiers for the release of Lunare is unprecedented to us.

... SACRED STEEL have released a video for their track, "Leather, Spikes and Chains," taken from their album, "Ritual Supremacy," due out May 2nd. Says the band: “This is our tribute to songs like 'In Union We Stand' (Overkill) or Metal Church's s/t anthem from their debut album, with a fast guitar over a stubborn but easy-going beat. The lyrics deal with a metal biker gang in the style of Mad Max (the movie) or Carnivore's post-world-war III (and IV) -scenario. If we would not be a metal band but a biker gang, this would be our club hymn. As so often and as usual, some critics have already slapped us in the face because of the song title - 'too clichéd, created with the Manowar text generator' and so on. Anyone who has read and understood the lyrics knows that this is nonsense. And anyone who knows us is well aware that we don't give a shit anyway. We only do this for ourselves and for the people who are into this stuff. And that's why we've packed a lot of fan footage from all over the world into the video. This is basically our photo collage in video format and our thank you to all supporters to celebrate the release of the album. Have fun!“ Check out the video here ...

... I.F.A. have released the second single, "Initaani," from their forthcoming studio album, "Timalasi," due out August 8th. Says the band: "Right from the beginning, the chorus immediately brought to mind the Indian theme. A chocolate bar commercial started to come to mind, where an old Indian goes to his deathbed on a cliff ledge, but after tasting the bar, he starts laughing. The idea was refined to honor the Indians' appreciation for nature and add some old Indian wisdom. Since 'Tiimalasi' is a darker and heavier album in terms of themes, 'Intiaani' counterbalances that arc with a slightly more major-key song." Check it out here ...

... MUGSHOT has released a pair of new video/singles from their forthcoming album, "All the Devils are Here," due out June 27th. Says the band: "'Die in Fear' and 'Afore A Waking Nightmare' were originally one song, but after recording it with our producer, Randy LeBoeuf, we felt that the song needed to be split into 2 separate tracks. 'Die in Fear’s' lyricism focuses on self-hatred — that sense of being a constant burden to those around you — while 'Afore A Waking Nightmare' is that same vitriolic hatred pointed at someone else who takes and takes but provides no value to anyone else."

... "Dysphoric Recall," the latest single from ABSINTHE GREEN, is now available. Says the band: "You know that twisted little trick your brain plays on you? The one where it takes the most gut-wrenching, soul-crushing experiences of your life and wraps them in a pretty little bow of nostalgia? That’s euphoric recall—the reason people keep running back to what broke them. Well, not this time. 'Dysphoric Recall' is the sound of a bad decision coming back to haunt you. This song drags you through the wreckage of a relationship built on deception and self-destruction, forcing you to relive every twisted moment of it. It’s dark, bitter, and merciless—just like the kind of love that leaves scars instead of memories. The lyrics lay bare the masochistic cycle of falling for the same manipulative games, knowing full well how it ends. It’s about being torn between rage and addiction, between the need to escape and the sick craving for one more hit of the poison. The final blow? That brutal realization that you don’t just remember the pain—you need it." Check it out here ...

... GAMA BOMB's "Neconomicon Automaton" is now available via Prosthetic Records. Says the band: "We approached writing our last album 'BATS' in a very maximalist way: in total we had around 30 demos - some sketches, others fully-worked up - and ended up with a huge shortlist for the album itself. The songs on this EP are those that almost made the album, but were killed off for one reason or another and not fully finished. They kinda sat on a shelf ever since, until we dusted them off and finished the parts that were missing - and we're pretty pleased with the result! This is the bonus level to 'BATS': four ripping thrash metal deleted scenes rescued from the cutting room floor. We think it's got something of its own to say, and we hope our fans will agree." ...

Friday, April 18, 2025

... WOLVES AT THE GATE have released their latest single. Says the band's singer/guitariset Stephen Cobucci: "The song is a reflection on a world and humanity that has lost its grip on true justice. But this isn't anything new. History tells endless stories of war, genocide, and injustice and a seemingly endless list of atrocities. There is something terribly broken in us by nature that exalts self-preservation. I've seen it firsthand in my own heart. I saw this confirmed to me by the words of an old Psalmist when he said, 'None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God.' As much as I tried to fight the reality of that truth, an honest look at myself told the same story." Check out "Law of the (Waste)land" here ...

Maybe the best way to make a choice is to follow your heart, although we may struggle many times because that is very rarely the easiest way. Thus, it might be that real choices are not made with our heart, but with our shadow heart. That lies far from the truth. 'Shadowheart,' our new song, is brutal, but at the same time fragile and beautiful. Just as Superdeathflame's song should be." Check it out here ...

It's similar to moments of uncontrolled anger that cause some people to make mistakes they'll pay for the rest of their lives.”Adds the band's Ignacio Orellana: “We are thrilled to share ‘Under The Moonlight’ with our fans. This track embodies the raw intensity and passion that drives our music, and we can’t wait for everyone to experience it.

Besides the metal riffs and catchy melodies, I felt the title track should capture the essence of the record the most, which this does in my opinion. The guitar leads span from crystal clean to searing and technical, embodying the feeling I intended in each section. The rhythm sections see a similar scope as I wanted to use the full range of the 7 string I played here. The theme that’s presented in the beginning undergoes different variations, a concept found elsewhere on the album." Experience it here ...

Says the band's vocalist Chandler Mogel: "'Silence Is Louder' evokes late 70s / early-era Foreigner with a fresh flair and approach for the modern melodic rock era. The concept is a powerful one, because silence often leaves room for interpretation, reflection and sometimes even tension. And in that space, emotions can grow louder than spoken language ever could. Ironically, we believe that conveyance of this concept through music is just what the doctor ordered - as people experience these concepts manifested in relationships, in protest or defiance, or also in communication. All very important factors of life and for this day and age". Check it out here ...

Says Travers about the release: “It sounds live. It may be a little rough compared to some of the over-produced and much over-dubbed live albums that are out there, but I’ve found that people often prefer a rougher sounding live mix, even if they don’t know it. They’re not conscious of it, this one’s too 'high fidelity’, but when it’s a little trashy, it has more energy and sounds more urgent. Rock’n’roll is not supposed to be clean and slick live. It’s got to have an edginess to it, and not be too predictable. There should always be surprises. Especially unintentional ones" ...

... "Nietzsche, and the Fall," the third and latest single from DEATH RATTLE, has been released. Says the band: "This song was our first venture into experimenting with melodic vocals. The open choruses and driving verses took us in some new directions and it was a lot of fun creating the harmonies in the studio. What came out was a wall of sound that we felt was unique and memorable. After the initial recording process we thought that it needed just a touch more of something that we couldn’t put our finger on. That’s when we reached out to Soilwork frontman Bjorn 'Speed' Strid and asked him to add his own style to what we had already laid down. What he produced was nothing short of magical and it created the epic crescendo that we were looking for in the choruses. It was truly an amazing experience and he slayed his parts. This is one of our favorite songs to play off the upcoming album and we can’t wait for all the fans to hear it." And you can hear it now here: http://youtu.be/2rvUIDrVsAc?si=PwcDX-sls2F2mxsq ...

Wednesday, March 05, 2025

... FRANTIC AMBER have released their latest video, "Hell's Belle," taken from the album "Death Becomes Her," due out April 4th via ROAR. Says the band: "'Death Becomes Her' is a concept album about female serial killers and includes different kinds of killers and categories of serial killers. 'Hell’s Belle' Gunness was a particularly gruesome Black Widow type serial killer, who lured unsuspecting men to her Indiana farm with promises of love, only to poison and dismember them for their money. She also orchestrated multiple insurance frauds and many suspicious deaths, including those of her husbands and children. Her gruesome legacy, spanning from 1884 to 1908, left a trail of at least 14 confirmed victims, with estimates reaching as high as 40 murders. Belle most probably faked her own death by burning down her farm, leaving behind a headless corpse and a farm full of buried body parts. The song 'Hell’s Belle' has a lot of black metal inspiration and combines a waltz with blast beats giving it a ruthless sway. We also incorporated a lot of orchestra to set the mood and tone together with the guitar melodies and tremolo. The lyrics tell the story of Belle Gunness and her bloody activities on her farm. The writing style is brutal with a little tongue-in-cheek undertones and the vocals have a wide range going from vicious growls to a little sprinkle of clean classical vocals in a three-part-harmony.” Check out the video for "Hell's Belle" here: http://youtu.be/IQzyy0SIZJs?si=I7r4tfS-w192wWl9 ...

... Finnish rockers SHIRAZ LANE have released their latest single, "Dangerous." Says the band: "We are excited to come forth with this bombastic banger. We believe that 'Dangerous' is the song that defines the path of Shiraz Lane, progressing towards a more contemporary soundscape. The song is seasoned with anthemic melodies, heavy riffs & a groovy disco beat - all spiced up with a modern twist in production. 'Dangerous' is the definition what Shiraz Lane is all about in 2025 and the beginning of a new groundbreaking chapter of what the future holds. The video for Dangerous was created in collaboration with Juho Virinkoski / Rytmivisuals. The aim was to capture the mysterious and intense ambience resonating in the storyline with a minimalistic, but engaging fashion. The inspiration is drawn from the style and cinematography of 'Joker: Folie à Deux' and the focus was to emphasize the subtle emotions and create a captivating setting. The general landscape is a perfect fit for the musical and lyrical elegance, which will further enhance and elevate the overall experience of the song.” Check it for yourself here: http://youtu.be/-OVBGjD5tcI?si=-qfbad0ROU5yxX5f ...

Says the band: “It’s no secret that we are inspired by the early beginnings of Heavy metal music. 'Dreamer Deceiver' is a deep cut from Judas Priest early work off of the album 'Sad Wings of Destiny' that speaks to the diversity of the band and the genre as a whole. While many bands might cover the classics, we decided to take on the challenge of playing an acoustic version of what we believe to be one of their greatest songs. This cover also helps to showcase our own musical abilities and diversity that is part of our sound." Check it out here: http://youtu.be/7YtfLxWPWAs?si=cFkkJWNv_oIc_yfz ...

... RED FANG will release a 26-song collection of non-album tracks, covers and previously unreleased singles on March 14th, in celebration of the band's 20 anniversary. Says the band's Aaron Beam: "Perhaps unremarkable to anyone else, it's fucking amazing to me that we have made it TWENTY YEARS. Before we started jamming in John Sherman's basement, I'd already been in 40 (maybe more!) bands, none of which lasted more than a year or two. Yet somehow in 2005, for the first time since probably 1987, I found myself without any band to play in. It turned out this was also true of John, David, and Bryan! So it was only natural that we'd start playing together." He adds: "... this double album feels very much at home. It's got a sampling of the weird variety of covers that reflect the different shit that inspire us. The computer drum-laden home demo for ‘Wires’ gives a little peek into the process that we pretty rarely but sometimes used for writing (more often than not, all the writing happened in the jam space). There's of course a generous helping of rare B-sides and bonus tracks that might be hard to find even in today's digital world. And there's even a smattering of pretty atypical GarageBand demos that are some of my favorite things to listen to on this record. They could probably never make a regular Red Fang release, but really let you see what is going on in our heads when we're not banging them!" For more information, check out http://redfang.net/ ...

.. Guitarist STEVE DADAIAN will release his second solo album, "Revenant City," on May 9th. Joining Dadaian are JORDAN RUDESS, MARCO MINNEMANN and REDVARD DOLANSKI, amonst others. Says Dadaian: "This album was a follow up to my debut album 'Follow the Light' (2019) and I wanted to build upon many of the things I introduced with that concept record. 'Revenant City' follows in its footsteps with each track offering something unique that embodies my style as a musician. My background is varied, having a traditional classical guitar background as well as having a progressive metal influence on electric guitar, each song has these elements in different forms. Some songs ('Shadowborne', 'Garden of Stars') found collaboration with Jordan Rudess (Dream Theater), a friend and icon who I’ve had the pleasure to work with multiple times including playing guitar on his recent solo album Permission to Fly (Sony/Inside Out). For drums I also collaborated on certain songs ('Barons of the Sky', 'The Story of Life') with Marco Minnemann who I’ve also worked with on previous projects. The demo process began the winter after my debut album was released with my mix engineer and fellow guitarist Redvard Dolanski. We worked on a series of songs I had in the works. Once things began taking shape, I was eventually fortunate to work with guitar legend Kiko Loureiro (ex-Megadeth) who helped direct and give valuable feedback on my music under his mentorship. Working with such notable musicians took this album to a new level, I could not have imagined otherwise' ...

... UNDEROATH will release their new album, "The Place After This One," on March 28th. Says guitarist Tim McTague: “'The Place After This One' is a multi-faceted idea. The fact that we grew up so sheltered and spiritual, and are trying to reconcile how we grew up against what we see now in the new age. Underoath, albeit intact and the same, is simultaneously so different. Our band has gone through a lot of chaos. I think there’s something beautiful about the idea of not just abandoning everything when things get weird. Whether it be your faith, or your band, or your marriage, or your relationships. The idea that there is a place after this one, even if it’s with the same people or it’s with the same God, or it’s with the same town. Things compound when it’s good, and you just cut out the things that are bad.” Check out the single, "Love is Gone," here: http://youtu.be/oIJTnUYb--o?si=VwwkWEEVxmEuRJvY ....

... Canadian thrashers PHEAR have released their new album, "Save Our Souls." Says the band's vocalist Patrick Mulock: "We had a lot of time to craft these songs. We didn’t have any time restraints. We would go into the studio and do three songs at a time. We were very excited to work with Jon Howard (Threat Signal) again. Jon is the sixth member of Phear. The studio experience was great as we fed off each other's ideas. We pushed each other to get the best performances we could. There are NO FILLERS here. Seven String guitars have played a big part in this. Our sound has grown. The bass guitar on this album is HUGE! The drumming from Mike Harshaw was also very aggressive. If you were to ask me now…This is the heaviest Phear has ever been……….for now lol!" Check out the track, "Snake" here: http://youtu.be/zfXS3gVttIQ?si=aMSfYCo8d7ub5967 ...

... SWEETBEAST has released their latest video, "Plastic People," from their forthcoming album, due out February 21st. Says the band: "This track critiques the superficiality of modern society, particularly the harmful effects of social media on mental health. With lines like 'effects and filters, digital weapons,' the song highlights how the endless stream of digitally altered images fuels feelings of inadequacy, especially in women. This cycle of comparison can lead to doom scrolling, depression, and even suicide, stripping away authenticity and turning people into hollow, 'plastic' versions of themselves. By raising awareness of these devastating effects, the song encourages self-reflection and contrasts inner beauty with the hollowness of curated personas."

... O.R.k will release their new album, "Firehose of Falsehoods," on March 21st. Says the band's vocalist, Collin Edwin, about the latest single, "The Other Side": “It demonstrates the harder hitting, more muscular side of O.R.k. and explores the balance between control and surrender in life's toughest moments. The dynamic shift and build of the song captures the intensity of facing challenges head-on when no clear options are available and nothing and no one is there to point the way. The Other Side’s lyrical content deals with the need to let go of over-thinking and to listen to those inner, instinctive impulses to navigate life's uncertainties. The Other Side also features a guest spot from guitarist Giuseppe Negri who adds an extra metallic edge to the punchy riffage.” Check it out here: http://music.orkband.com/theotherside-2 ...

Sweden Rock Festival is an institution when it comes to rock and metal music in Sweden. To be asked to play with Care of Night was an honour and something we've dreamed about since childhood.

... ASHES IN THE FALL will release their debut EP on March 21st. Says the band of the new single, "Dusk of Mankind": "'Dusk of Mankind' is a foretaste of our upcoming debut EP 'Where Serenity Prevails.' The song combines acoustic sections and clean vocals with distorted sections and harsh vocals. Also worth mentioning are the polyphonic vocal harmonies and jazz influences. The song paints a picture of the Earth returning to its natural state after the destruction of mankind. Influences can be heard from Opeth and Alcest, among others. Highly recommended for listeners of progressive death metal and post-metal as well as fans of the above-mentioned bands. And for those who like a rough and authentic production, the song was recorded, mixed and mastered by the band. The full version of the song (with solos!) will be released on the EP."

Says the band's Frankie: "'Violence Prevails' is a reflection of our daily life. America is a beautiful continent but filled with corruption; more specifically Central and South America. I wanted to portray how there's no more dialogue; everything is resolved with violence and unfortunately for us, we see a lot of poverty and class disparities among our people. I also wanted to tell a story that could resonate with more individuals across the planet and see that they are not alone when they see what's happening around them. Violence now is the key to sort out any discrepancies you may have with someone else and we see it on a daily basis with international conflicts around the globe." ...

... Thrashers JUSTICE THEORY have released their new single, "My True Nemesis." Says the band's singer/guitarist Valtteri Saharinen: "'My True Nemesis' is a song about battling your own inner enemy. The narrator’s opponent isn’t some external force, but rather this internal power that takes control of their mind and life. Feelings of anger, resentment, shame, and despair are constantly churning inside throughout life, and you’re forced to deal with them if you want to move forward. The chorus, 'true nemesis,' is a metaphor for this internal force, an enemy you have to face over and over again, one you can never escape. The song has this heavy, fatalistic vibe, where the enemy is seen as inevitable, just a natural part of life. The narrator’s lyrics dig deep into the conflict between self-hatred and the struggle to accept oneself. In the final chorus, the voices in their head scream, 'No way out!' – summing up the feeling that this inner enemy is tied to their fate. It’s something they can’t outrun, only learn to live with. Musically, the track is raw and intense, perfectly mirroring the darkness in the lyrics. It drags the listener deep into the pain of the mind but also opens a door to self-reflection and acceptance. 'My True Nemesis' is a powerful take on the inner battle and how it’s an inseparable part of being human." Check it out here: http://youtu.be/dsYSTiDqxPk?si=wIa5DecRYurAFDza ...

It features the powerful Hellscore choir, directed by Noa Gruman, and an exquisite Turkish strings orchestra, led by Mumin Sesler. Together, the choir and orchestra amplify the song's dramatic and theatrical essence. The song speaks about the painful act of asking a loved one to let you go, for their own sake. Through emotional death metaphors, it captures the sorrow of parting while encouraging them to move on and build a life without you."

... "Erasure of Color," the new album from AVERSED, will be released on March 21st. The latest single, "Lucid Decapitation," is described by drummer Jeff Saltzman: "In 1905, French physician Dr. Jacques Beaurieux performed an experiment on prisoners condemned to die by guillotine. Immediately after his subjects were decapitated, he called out their names seeking to determine to what extent and for how long consciousness remained in their detached skulls, In ‘Lucid Decapitation,’ we explore the horrifying prospect of being subjected to such a test, and our world’s hunger for knowledge, regardless of the cost. What does it feel like to be a head, detached from your body? Can science ever be justified in performing such grisly experiments?" ...

... ORANGE GOBLIN have announced that they're hanging it up after 2025, celebrating a 30 year career. Says the band: "As Orange Goblin enters its 30th year of existence, we have made the collective decision that 2025 will be our last. Maybe not forever and who knows what could be possible further down the line. It’s been a wild 30 years and we have had some incredible experiences and are left with magical memories. For that we are all truly grateful. We started the band with no real preconception of what it eventually became, we started as bored teenagers with a mutual love of Heavy Metal, Classic Rock and Punk Rock. We feel very fortunate that we have been able to travel all over the world, numerous times, and have made a network of friends all around the globe. We are proud of everything we have accomplished together, we’ve always maintained a DIY ethic and done things our own way and on our terms. We have never compromised to fit into any specific scene and we feel we leave a very strong legacy of 10 studio albums, each one a milestone that marks exactly where we were at each point of our journey. Of this, we are fiercely proud. It's not been an easy decision for any of us, we have all given 30 years of our lives to this incredible band, but we feel that now is the right time for us to focus our attention on our families and other interests outside the band. We will of course be honouring all the shows and festivals we currently have planned for 2025, as well as a few other things that we have in the pipeline, but these could be your last chance to catch Orange Goblin live, wherever you are, for a while! We would like to express our gratitude to every single person that has made this possible for us, there are too many to name personally, but especially to our wives and children that have supported us no matter what, our former band mates, Martyn and Pete, the current and former road crew that have kept the show on the road for so long, despite us never making things easy for them. But last and by no means least, we thank you, the Orange Goblin fans that have been the bedrock of everything for us. Nothing we have done would've been possible without the fans that have bought the albums, the merchandise, the show tickets and ALWAYS showed us and made us feel just how appreciated we are. We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts............Orange Fuckin' Goblin Baby! End of transmission." ...

... SACRED STEEL have released the title track of their new album, "Ritual Supremacy," due out April 25th. Says the band about the track: "We chose this to be the 1st single because a) it's the title track and b) it's the heaviest track on the album. It's always good to be back with a bang, right? Lyrically it's about the fact that we all try to differentiate ourselves from others by looking for our own space, our refuge. As metalheads we have found this refuge in the community of other metalheads and within our music. Unfortunately, there are also negative cults in this world and we stand against them with all our might! That's what the cover art refers to."

Says the band's Dylan Westendorp: “’Unto Ashes’ is one of the longer songs on the record. We wanted to kinda make a song similar to ‘Battery’ by Metallica, and that being the unrelenting aggression for the first half of the song. The song itself is talking about Thanos from the Marvel comics. His egotistical thinking and him collecting the stones and wiping out half the planet was a pretty gnarly song topic, the chorus of the song is pretty telling on what the song is about. Also, it incorporates newer elements into our songwriting with that middle section and the gang vocals as well, plus some melody here and there. A longer cut with some cool elements woven throughout." Check out "Unto Ashes" here: http://youtu.be/3Lahog29iI8?si=_pCKBz7ch7bTBV-O ...

We wanted the footage to be very dark, with dark apparitions, symbols and natural disasters. The end result is really impressive and fits in well with our previous clips."

It’s been stormy for my family and I with my health. I’m looking forward to getting healthy. My attitude is positive and when I’m ready I’m gonna get back on the road harder than ever with both Coal Chamber and DevilDriver.There are a lot of things in the works with both of those bands, but I won’t go over them now because I want to focus on this announcement and I wanted you guys to hear it straight from me.
