TOM GABRIEL WARRIOR'S 'TRIUMPH OF DEATH' ANNOUNCE DEBUT VIDEO 'MASSACRA'

DEBUT ALBUM ‘RESURRECTION OF THE FLESH’ RELEASED ON NOISE/BMG ON NOVEMBER 10th, 2023
PREORDER HERE 

 


Tom Gabriel Warrior : “The revivification of Hellhammer's "Massacra", almost forty years after the song's inception. The new single and first video clip to accompany Triumph Of Death's "Resurrection Of The Flesh", an immoderate on-stage celebration of Hellhammer's music.”

Triumph Of Death’s debut live release Resurrection Of The Flesh is the culmination of three concerts. Recorded in the spring of 2023 at Hell’s Heroes Festival in Houston USA, Dark Easter Metal Meeting in Munich, Germany and SWR Barroselas Metal Fest in Portugal, the album was produced by Tom Gabriel Warrior and Triptykon's V. Santura. The record captures the band at their primeval finest; raw, foreboding and heavy. These Hellhammer songs may date back four decades but here they are revealed to be still just as vital today as when they were written in theband’s infamous rehearsal bunker in the rural village of Birchwil, Switzerland in the early 1980s. From the thunderous opening chords of Third Of The Storms (Evoked Damnation) to the malevolent, morbid feedback of set closer Triumph Of Death, this album is a sixty minute document of the overwhelming power of the live performance of Triumph Of Death, and it captures the spirit and intensity of these historic songs that have transcended decades to become revered and timeless.

Resurrection Of The Flesh will be available as:
• Deluxe CD mediabook
• Double gatefold LP w/booklet and posters on black vinyl and B&W swirl (indie store exclusive)
• Super deluxe double red vinyl LP bookpack with bonus 7” single plus posters and photo card

Gunship Share Cover Of "Send Me An Angel" Lyric Video

Synthwave pioneers Gunship — Dan Haigh, Alex Westaway, and Alex Gingell — today release a special cover of Real Life's 1980s smash hit, "Send Me An Angel," an otherworldly, heavy synth-rock rendition available to stream in time for Halloween. 

The defining soundtrack to legendary BMX movie RAD is back with a vengeance and in the care of Gunship and their signature synth sounds and powerful modern production. Hop on your tricked out BMX and shred the night away to this retro modern take on one of the biggest songs of the '80s.

Gunship says, "'Send Me An Angel' is a cornerstone of '80s synth pop — its driving synth bass and mesmeric lead lines remain an influence on GUNSHIP's production style to this day. However, the song's involvement in the classic BMX movie RAD truly heightened the song's resonance with us to a whole other level. Endless summer, BMX upgrades, and Helltrack… definitely 'Rad' times."

Stream Gunship's "Send Me An Angel" here.

Watch the lyric video below.

To celebrate the release of "Send Me An Angel," Gunship have launched an exciting BMX-themed competition. Fans are invited to post video clips of their best BMX tricks to their socials and use the hashtag #GUNSHIPBMX. The band will select three winners to receive some Gunship swag, and will also repost good tricks on their socials.

This isn't the first time the band have released a cover in the spirit of Halloween. In 2020, they released a modern-day "Eleanor Rigby," having found themselves continuously drawn to the iconic Beatles' lyric "Look at all the lonely people." The track reimagined the character of Eleanor alive today and experiencing the isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

"Send Me An Angel" comes fresh off the back of the band's third studio album, UNICORN, released last month. Gunship invite their listeners to celebrate the power of imagination on the record, named after the international icon of fantasy and imagination, it's emblazoned with the tagline "Imagination Is A Weapon." The trio's trademark, synth-laden atmosphere and transportative soundscapes continue to evolve to include more rock, industrial, and EDM influences, allowing the listener to revel in an alternative reality on a 14-track electric thrill ride.

Unicorn boasts a diverse array of special guests, who each bring something different to the project. Collaborators include: John Carpenter, Gavin Rossdale (Bush), Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Carpenter Brut, Tim Cappello (Lost Boys, Tina Turner, Ringo Starr), Health, Tyler Bates (John Wick, Guardians of the Galaxy etc), Lights, Power Glove, Charlie Simpson, Britta Philips (Jem), Milkie Way (Wargasm) and Stella Le Page. 

Embodying the saying "it's better to light a candle than to curse the darkness," Gunship seek to curse the darkness as well as to provide illumination with their darker and more positive material respectively, while consistently evolving the synthwave genre they helped to pioneer. 

With the album's release came new single "Empress of The Damned," featuring Canadian powerhouse, Lights. Opening with a spooky John Carpenter-esque horror aura, the damnation quickly resolves into a pounding synthwave and EDM-fused tour de force. Returning collaborator Tim Cappello (The Lost Boys, Tina Turner) blasts blazing saxophone lines evoking some of the best '80s classics, while on vocals, fresh from recent collaborations with Deadmau5, i_o, Felix Cartel and Illenium, Lights delivers the powerful melodic hooks she is famous for. "Empress Of The Damned" boasts cultural and video game references abound, in hypnotic and bass heavy verses which give way to soaring choruses filled with Gunship's signature '80s pop sensibility. It's a fiery take on the classic 1980s duets of yesteryear. 

Elsewhere, bass-driven, industrial-rock offering "DooM Dance," is a vivid sonic experience. On the track, rock icon and Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale delivers searing vocals, while synthwave powerhouse Carpenter Brut serves up some devastating electronic riffs. "DooM Dance" is inspired by the frenetic ‘dance’ gamers perform when vastly outnumbered and battling wave after wave of enemies in the now legendary video game DooM. 

Gunship make a name for themselves by linking their music and video releases with popular culture, whether that be film, like the Blade Runner x The Terminator dystopia in the new era's first release, "Monster In Paradise" (Feat. Milkie Way, Dave Lombardo, Tim Cappello, Tyler Bates)  or the gaming world, as with "DooM Dance" and previous album single "Taste Like Venom," which paid homage to Sega's classic arcade game Outrun. 

Milkie Way (the fiery frontwoman of Wargasm), pays homage to the indomitable Sarah Connor from The Terminator films, on "Monster In Paradise," a key highlight. Driving Sarah's classic 1983 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade and providing a Terminator style voice over, Milkie initially appears to be giving a performance true to Sarah Connor's character, although perhaps things are not quite as they seem… Are the machines recruiting humans with a mind-altering silver liquid? Watch the music video here. 

In an equally cyber-futuristic offering, "Ghost" (Feat. Power Glove), released later last year, asked artificial intelligence to show the world "What happens after we die?" The cyberpunk tune was accompanied by an AI-generated video. Cutting edge and psychedelic, the video was created via various emerging artificial intelligence and machine learning tools, including OpenAI's DALL-E, the open-source Stable Diffusion as well as Midjourney. 

Dive into the full, fantasy world of Unicorn now… 

ABOUT GUNSHIP:
GUNSHIP are Dan Haigh, Alex Westaway, and Alex Gingell. The band’s sound is created with vintage analogue synthesizers and other retro electronic gear from the 1980s. Driven and inspired by nostalgia for a bygone era, Gunship harness this retro approach to birth something fresh and new. Their sound is sonically diverse — blending sweeping fluorescent synth lines with fever pitched and adrenalizing electric bass arpeggios. Dan Haigh from Gunship describes their sound as "a neon-soaked, late night, sonic getaway drive, dripping with luscious analogue synthesizers, cinematic vocals and cyberpunk values, exploding from the front cover of a dusty plastic VHS case which has lain forgotten since 1984." Gunship was formed in 2014 as a new musical venture for Westaway and Haigh, also members of post-hardcore band Fightstar with Charlie Simpson (Busted) and Omar Abidi, going on hiatus in 2010. Unicorn follows their critically acclaimed self-titled debut (Gunship, 2015), and 2018 follow-up Dark All Day.

Dead Icarus, Feat. ex-Atreyu Singer Alex Varkatzas, Share "So I Set Myself On Fire"

Dead Icarus, the new project of former Atreyu lead vocalist and Gold-selling artist Alex Varkatzas, has shared the third single, titled "So I Set Myself on Fire." Listen below.

"'So I Set Myself on Fire' is about finding inspiration in darkness," Varkatzas said. "It's about letting your inspiration consume you so fully that it changes you into something else — a driven, unstoppable force of nature."

 Dead Icarus previously shared the video for the new single "Sellout." Watch it here. The track is a hyperkinetic slab of fast-paced, face-ripping metal with layered vocals and a pit-clearing breakdown. The song shows off a different side of the artist's musical personality. It hits hard, but it's also infused with a melody that just won't quit. Dead Icarus followed with the video for "The Vultures Circle," an equally brutal banger. Watch it here.

A staple of Ozzfest in the mid-2000s with two gold albums and several gold singles, Atreyu is one of the defining bands of the New Wave of American Heavy Metal, alongside groups like Avenged Sevenfold and Lamb Of God. Metalcore classics like The Curse and A Death-Grip on Yesterday were powered by Alex's distinctive scream. 

The band is officially signed to MNRK Heavy, with more music on the way.

Tigirlily Gold Kick-Starts Holiday Season w/ “Falalala Falling,” Out Now

Monument Records’ sister duo Tigirlily Gold is “Falalala Falling” into the Christmas spirit, releasing their whimsical original Christmas song today via Monument Records. Written by Kendra and Krista Slaubaugh, alongside Alex Kline and Scott Stepakoff, “Falalala Falling” captures the romanticism of the holidays spent with a loved one. Listen Below.
 
        It’s getting kinda cold, so baby hold me close
        Wrapped up in each other like we’re underneath the tree
        Ain’t no kind of falling like falalala falling
        In love on Christmas Eve
 
"During the holiday season, there’s always a little extra magic in the air that makes you want to fall in love even more! ‘Falalala Falling’ is all about capturing that feeling of being with the one you love, snuggling up by the fire, and watching the snow fall,” share Kendra and Krista. “We grew up in North Dakota, and we are all too familiar with getting 'snowed in,' but it’s not always the worst case scenario if you’re snowed in with the one you love!"
 
Keeping in the holiday spirit, Tigirlily Gold’s 2021 cover of Faith Hill’s classic “Where Are You Christmas?” is featured in a 2023 Hallmark movie of the same name, which debuted last Saturday, Oct. 21 on Hallmark Channel. The movie, starring Lyndsy Fonseca, centers around her character, Addy, who wishes for a year without Christmas, and comes to regret it when that wish comes true. It will re-air every week.
 
Tigirlily Gold spent more than five years honing their craft on Nashville’s Lower Broadway, honing their stage presence and songwriting while delivering four-hour sets, three to four nights a week. Born from those years spent entertaining the rowdy Broadway crowds, their debut EP Blonde, released earlier this year, captures that energy while highlighting the girls’ versatile songwriting. 
 
The sisters recently performed their top-40 hit “Shoot Tequila” off Blonde on “TODAY with Hoda & Jenna.” The upbeat party anthem is reminiscent of the push and pull of a toxic relationship, nodding to the irresistible temptation of caving to the “bad influence” of a tequila-induced night. Watch the performance HERE.
 
“Falalala Falling” comes as they prepare to release more new music, with their debut full-length album due in early 2024. For the latest information visit, tigirlily.com and follow along on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @tigirlily and on TikTok @TigirlilyGold.
 
About Tigirlily Gold:
Sister duo Tigirlily Gold has been playing music together since they could walk, and officially formed their band in high school. Growing up, they crisscrossed the mid-west, growing a fierce fan base and selling out amphitheaters across their home-state of North Dakota. After moving to Nashville, they landed a weekly residence at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row on Nashville’s famed lower Broadway. Playing four-hour sets, three to four nights a week, the sisters developed a performance style that’s not only captivating and fun but shows just how much entertaining is in their blood. 
 
After releasing their original song “Somebody Does,” in 2021, the track topped the iTunes chart and Tigirlily Gold was signed to Monument Records. They released their self-titled, debut EP in July 2021, working with multi-Grammy Award Winner Shane McAnally, and hit the road with artists like Walker Hayes and Ashley McBryde. 
 
Now, the powerhouse duo has embarked on a new musical chapter with their EP, Blonde – a deeply personal project that includes tales of love and loss alongside powerful anthems and songs of female empowerment. Their current single, “Shoot Tequila,” has already found viral success with millions of views across social media, and millions of streams across platforms. The song is climbing the country radio charts now. Ready to bring girl group energy back to country music, Tigirlily Gold is poised for a breakout year.

Supreme Unbeing release new single “Scarecrow” for Halloween

SUPREME UNBEING is an elusive5-piece metal band shrewd in mystery. Led by vocalist Zac Red, who taps into the depths of the human psyche to unfold paramount messages for the benefit of mankind, accompanied by his most terrifying thoughts: The Demon, The Shadow, The Nightmare & The Legend.  The band is about to scare the public in time for Halloween through tricky riffs and spooky lyrics!

Although the band just recently played their first show on Earth for a sold-out crowd in Stockholm, Sweden, their impact has been felt in the physical domain since the release of their two full-length albums “Enter Reality” (2020) and “EnduringPhysicality” (2022) with a loyal fan-base reaching all across the globe.  Highlights include +10 million streams, noteworthy reviews and premiers in esteemed magazines such as Revolver, Metal Hammer, Rock Hard, and Sweden Rock Magazine, as well as landing Spotify editorial play lists for multiple singles. 

Despite all the success, the band has felt uncomfortable with their visual imagery, as it was based on cartoonish animation from their first music videos. That’s why the band has decided to drop their previous monikers and adopt a ghastly identity fit for Halloween and other scary occasions, as they release the nightmarish, yet head-bangingly persuasive new song–Scarecrow- on Friday, October 27th, 2023. 

“When the night falls the frights and phobias of mankind come alive, the scarecrow of your mind reminds you of who controls your fantasy. Yes, the creepy scarecrow! Often presenting itself as a demon in your dreams or a shadow in the night, the scarecrow stirs up your own beliefs and nurtures your most horrifying fantasies. No one can escape the scarecrow!” says Zac Red.

Watch the video for 'Scarecrow' below:

With+7 million views combined on YouTube for the most popular track 'Animals' (2020), which featured ex-Megadeth bassist David Ellefson (in a cartoon render), and the tracks 'Face Of Evil' (2021), 'Hide The Beast' (2021), 'Savior' (2022) all featuring Swedish actor Dragomir Mrsic (known from Snabba Cash, and Edge Of Tomorrow, co-starred along Tom Cruise).  Supreme Unbeing continues their tradition of visualizing their music in a cinematic, action-filled, fashion. This time by partnering with G13 Production House, who have produced recent videos for the likes of Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, Behmoth, Kreator and many more, to capture the horrifying essence of the scarecrow.

The video, filmed in an actual abandoned laboratory in Wroclaw, Poland which was used during WW2 in thought-control experiments, may scare the living guts out of us all as we get to revisit the mad scientist who tried to create the perfect demon.

“There is no sanctuary, one of us must die!” Concludes Zac.

Red Mixed & mastered by World-renown producer & engineer Lasse Lammert (Alestorm, Gloryhammer and countless more), the track will be available on Friday, October 27th on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube (video) and all major streaming services.

London's SABATTA takes a blistering psychedelic rock trip on new single 'Get Over Yourself'

"An unholy amalgamation of sounds... Refusing to obey genre lines, they eventually realised that their misfit sound was what defined them – and they didn't want to fit in anyway" ~ Clash Magazine

"Charismatic and wild, frontman Yinka Oyewole leads the band through psychedelia, grunge punk and funk with some great shredding and even falsetto heights.... Sabatta drives a blaze of fiery, magnetic vocals, funked-out bass and thrashing guitar" ~ The Spill Magazine

"Exhibiting a style that can be closely linked to punk legends Bad Brains and Dead Kennedys... uncompromising modern punk rock music" ~ Fortitude Magazine

"The grit and the glory of ‘Get Over Yourself’ is a powerful calling card for the album... You can hear the London concrete embedded in their sound and it is brutalist and compelling"  ~ Joyzine


London alternative-psychedelic rock artist Sabatta has released his new single 'Get Over Yourself', an ode to the obliviously self-important and the second taste of his new album 'How To Get Even’ (out on November 17 via Blackfriars Entertainment) with a video that introduces the unique guitar - The Pick! Aka AfroGuitar!

‘Get Over Yourself' deals with ‘build em up, break em down’ celebrity culture via a barrage of grimy riffs, pumping bass and pounding drums.This relentless rocker is anchored by a heavy and hypnotic chorus, which backs the vocal mantra of the track’s title! Also included is a shredfest solo, as ferocious as a social media comment section! Beware, no one is safe, as the saying goes ‘the internet is undefeated!’

Revolving around guitarist and songwriter Yinka Oyewole, who was raised in Essex and is of Nigerian lineage, Sabatta crafts a raw and individual sound with spiky guitar and an inimitable voice, like a mix of Hendrix, QOTSA and early Red Hot Chili Peppers strained through the sieve of South London. And it's no wonder with musical influences ranging from Curtis Mayfield, Prince, Tupac and Hendrix to Bad Brains, Thin Lizzy, Parliament / Funkadelic and Black Sabbath.

"Inspiration for ‘Get Over Yourself’ came from the current thirst for fallen idols. It’s like a modern day version of human sacrifice, but lives have been replaced by reputations and the Gods are the insatiable beasts of social media opinion. Beware, no one is safe, as the saying goes ‘the internet is undefeated!" says Yinka Oyewole.

The album's lead single ''Get Your Shit Together' is a wake up call to the masses. A funkadelic groove-laden track that is as addictive as it is memorable, the video for ‘Get Your Shit Together’ explores what happens when the opposing sides of our conscience come to life.

Yinka Oyewole says "this is the most cohesive and free Sabatta album I’ve produced. It’s also the most raw and unfiltered. I love storytelling, I love guitar playing, I love grooves. And I love being my own person, even if that's seen as rebellious or contrary, on the new album I’m just being me."

Produced and mixed by Yinka Oyewole, this album was recorded by Alex Franklinos at Shrunken Heads Studio (King Krule, Ghostpoet, Songdog, Domino Records) and mastered at London's EC Mastering (Sony, Universal, BBC),

Yinka Oyewole began making noise with Sabatta's debut album 'Middle Of the Night', released in 2015. With their sound, being compared to Hendrix and QOTSA, but  with an edge like Bad Brains and The Clash, the album’s lead single 'Politician'garnered national play on BBC 6 Music, setting the band off touring nationally.

As of October 27, ‘Get Over Yourself’ will be available across digital platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp. Sabatta's album 'How To Get Even’ will be released on Friday, November 17.

With even more new music coming soon, “Whiskey On The Wall” follows the release of the heart-pulsing “Little Less Lonely,” the gripping “Till The Day I Die” that he performed on American Idol earlier this year (WATCH HERE), the “heartbreak-induced insomnia” (Country Now) of “Keeping Me Up All Night,” and the incredible success of his debut EP Doin It Right that skyrocketed to No. 1 on the iTunes All Genre and Country charts. 

One of only three singles on the country radio chart this year that was self-penned by the artist, his smash debut “23” has become an anthemic staple in his live shows. Now RIAA-certified platinum, the semi-autobiographical song has racked up over 330 million on-demand streams and topped numerous viral charts, including #1 on iTunes All-Genre and Country charts. The first to ever win ABC’s American Idol with an original song, “23” is a deeply personal depiction of a man’s hardships, self-written during a particularly dark time in Beckham’s own life before he auditioned for the star-making competition series.

Since his history-making win, Beckham and his voice that Katy Perry said “sounds like the heart of America” has earned him critical acclaim from ABC’s Good Morning America and Jimmy Kimmel, E! News!, Billboard, People , CMT, PopCulture, Sweety High, American Songwriter and more. 

About Chayce Beckham:

American Idol winner and “Artist to Watch” (Country Now, Country Swag, Music Mayhem Magazine, Sounds Like Nashville) Chayce Beckham is “no doubt a force to be reckoned with, while proving he will leave a scorching mark on the Country music genre for years to come” (PopCulture). “One of the most buzzed-about newcomers in Country music today” (Parade), Beckham’s debut EP Doin’ It Right skyrocketed to No. 1 on iTunes All Genre and Country charts and received critical acclaim from E! News!, Billboard, People, CMT, PopCulture, American Songwriter, Sweety High and more. The first to ever win the competition show with an original song, his semi-autobiographical, self-written track “23” instantly shot to the top of numerous viral charts. Currently surging toward Top 15 at Country radio, Beckham’s “23” resonated so deeply with fans that it has continuously banked over 1 million on-demand streams per week since its 2021 release, amassing over 321 million thus far. A triple threat artist, Beckham is an incredibly captivating performer, powerhouse vocalist and talented songwriter who just made his Grand Ole Opry debut on October 18 and is currently on Country superstar Luke Bryan’s 2023 Country On Tour. The rising country star, whose voice Katy Perry said “sounds like the heart of America,” went from working as a fork-lift driver to winning American Idol to appearing on Good Morning America, Jimmy Kimmel, and Live with Kelly & Ryan to becoming a truly prolific songwriter in the room with some of Nashville’s best. Recognized as one of 10 new Country artists “destined for killer careers” (Country Swag) and the “Next Big Thing” by Music Row, the “full-fledged Country star” (CMT) just released “Whiskey On The Wall,” “Till The Day I Die” and the heart-pulsing “Little Less Lonely,” continuing his rise as “one of the best new country artists to watch out for” (PopCulture).

The Requiem Announce Debut Album "A Cure to Poison the World" + Share New Video

ALBUM ARRIVES FEBRUARY 16 VIA FEARLESS RECORDS

BAND SHARES VIDEO FOR "AN ELEGY WRITTEN ON PORCELAIN ARMS"


Darkly romantic Florida rock band THE REQUIEM — Damien [vocals], Felipe [lead guitar], and Salem [bass] — will release their debut album A Cure to Poison the World on February 16, 2024 via Fearless Records. Pre-order it here.

Today, the band has shared the video for new single "An Elegy Written on Porcelain Arms." Watch it below.

On the track, the band goes from 0 to 60 and they stay there. It's a high energy hard rocker with potent, pop punk vibes. It will remind you of your favorite '00s Warped Tour bands, but with a modern edge.

 "This song is about seeing someone disappear into themselves as they pass on, and the feeling of hopelessness you get from being little to no help for them, only as an emotional tourniquet of sorts," the band explains.

Regarding the album as a whole, the band sees it as a catalyst with which to directly connect with fans. "I want people to actually be able to relate to the music and identify," Damien says. "It's the same way I felt my favorite artists spoke for me." Felipe shares the sentiment, saying, "Our goal is to be our most pure form These songs thematically reference growing up, the struggles of becoming an adult, and lessons we've learned."

ABOUT THE REQUIEM:
No matter how sunny it may be in Broward County, a different energy exists beneath the surface. Each generation it seeps out, either in the area's shock rock luminaries during the nineties or a bevy of post-Soundcloud rap stars in the twenty-tens. That brings us to The Requiem. The Broward County, FL trio—Damien [vocals], Felipe [lead guitar], and Salem [bass]—piece together elements of alternative, rock, emo, and even eighties into an uncompromising and undeniable vision of what music can be without boundaries. After piling up over 1 million streams independently and stirring up buzz, the group captivate on a series of 2023 singles and more to come.
 
"We want to represent our generation in the best way possible," exclaims Damien. "Rock music has lost the sloppiness and the vulgarity it used to have. When you're young, you need to embrace that attitude and danger. We want to bring all of that back to alternative music."
 
The band embarked on this mission back in 2020. Damien teamed up with Salem and Felipe. Together, they nodded to influences as diverse as The Used, AFI, Pierce The Veil, and Finch as well as Ozzy Osbourne, Mötley Crüe, and Genesis. They gained traction with the independent single "Corpse Party," reeling in 371K Spotify streams and counting.

The band comments: “One of the all-time classic Bewitcher tracks, the title says it all. Live fast, go hard, do it for the devil.”

Pre-orders are now available and can be found HERE.

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)

The offering will be available as: Standard CD Jewelcase, Ltd. Gatefold white 2LP, Digital album.

Since their formation in 2013, Bewitcher has seen their signature “Black Magick Metal” sound go from humble beginnings to new heights of creativity and wild anthemic fervor. A small collection of long out-of-print demo tapes kicked off what has proven to be an enduring line of ripping studio albums, singles and EPs. They have earned a reputation as one of the hardest working touring acts around, bringing their volcanic, high energy live shows to every corner of North America and parts abroad.

Now, as the band reaches a new crucial milestone, they are taking a moment to look back on a

decade of diabolic speed and sorcery. Their latest offering, ”Deep Cuts & Shallow Graves: Ten Years of Black Leather, Black Magic & White Hot Fucking Steel“, is a massive 17-track compilation of Bewitcher’s original demo recordings, including rare and previously unreleased material, all remastered as well as two brand new studio tracks. Released November 17 on all formats, including a stacked double LP version, it is a compelling retrospective on the earliest days of this rising force in the world of heavy metal.

ABOUT LUCIFER

Since its inception in 2014 In Berlin, the highly prolific band led by charismatic singer Johanna Platow Andersson has released four electrifying albums on Rise Above (LUCIFER I) and Century Media Records (LUCIFER II-IV), as well as and numerous stand-alone singles infused with 1970s hard rock, proto heavy metal, doom and occult rock, with a nod to their main influences such as Black Sabbath, Pentagram & Blue Öyster Cult. They have played over 200 shows in the Europe, Japan, North & South America, including festivals such as KISS Kruise, Psycho Las Vegas, Hellfest, Wacken and many more, most recently supporting the band GHOST on their European tour in spring 2023. Two of their shows have been recorded and broadcasted by prestigious German national TV program Rockpalast.

LUCIFER, now located in Stockholm, have been nominated twice for a Swedish Grammy in the category 'Best Hardrock/Metal Album' as well as the Swedish Radio Award P3 and several GAFFA nominations. Amongst others, they have graced the cover of the leading US metal magazine, Decibel, before their first album was released.

The group has concluded recording their fifth studio album, LUCIFER V, the first one to be released by their new label, Nuclear Blast Records, due out on January 26th 2024. Although LUCIFER is known to notoriously deliver critically acclaimed albums, supreme songwriting and quality recordings, LUCIFER V is rumored to be their best album yet. Combining elements of all their previous albums into one monumental mass of electrifying heavy rock and roll. Eerie landscapes shaped by soaring guitar riffs, the thunderous pounding of bass and drums from some sort of groovy inferno, haunted melodies to weep into your drink to, the screeching tires of a 1971 Cadillac hearse, the humorous morbidity and tragic wit of Johanna’s lyrics. If death had a best friend, it would be LUCIFER and they would hang out together at the local cemetery, shooting the shit. Catch LUCIFER live this November in North America on The Satanic Panic Tour co-headlining with Coven, as well as this coming February together with Angel Witch, when LUCIFER brings The Satanic Panic Tour to Europe.

Philadelphia art-rock duo Tulipomania presents new single 'Then and Only Then', an anthem of mutability and catharsis

"Tulipomania’s unique take on post-punk boasts gritty guitars underpinned by a brooding rhythm section to provide a backdrop for compelling and atmospheric vocals" ~ Louder Than War

"All the hallmarks of fine Cold War electronica: a brain-searing synth line, and an overwhelming sense of claustrophobia and bubbling anxiety" ~ Electronic Sound

"Like a good Lynch film, Tulipomania serves up a dystopian atmosphere that is drifting and cavernous, igniting one’s imagination, while the accompanying video is a fantastic shadowplay" ~ The Spill Magazine

"Between post-punk influenced synth pop and lush chamber pop... with visually distinctive videos" ~ WIRE Magazine

"Reverberating, rippling riffs are more soothing and spacious, replicating deep-sea sonar devices and lulling lap steels... mystery-laced lyrics"~Big Takeover Magazine

Philadelphia-based art-rock duoTulipomaniapresents'Then and Only Then', the latest single from their fifth album'Dreaming of Sleep'(out November 17 viaSursumcorda Records).

Alternately categorized as cult synth punks, glam-leaning, post-punk, art-rock and muscular chamber pop, Tulipomania isTom Murray(lead vocals, synthesizer, electronic percussion) andCheryl Gelover (synthesizer, background vocals), who first began their collaboration through projects for experimental film and animation classes.  The duo now known as Tulipomania has evolved from those experiences.

"Memory is malleable – the song explores mutability. Lyrically, it's an internal struggle  – sonically it projects that energy into the external world.Catharsis. Of course, the effectiveness of that strategy is debatable – that's the fun of it for those who can appreciate the irony – "knock yourself out". We do however believe the ultimate failure is apathy – never give up – the stakes are too high," saysCheryl Gelover.

Tom Murrayadds, "It’s about wearing yourself out trying to answer the unanswerable. Dealing with endless, groundless self-serving tales. Deciding to keep moving in the absence of a clear destination. Meditative frustration. Finding a groove to loop into – not answering is the answer."

Its animated music video, featuring lip sync, original and vintage footage shot frame by frame, collaged on sheets of black paper - is an official selection at the CutOut Fest International festival of animation and digital art this November in Mexico. The ‘Dreaming of Sleep’ album sees the duo heavily immersed in electronic means of creation. With cover artwork by Michael Speed, senior designer at Beggars Group London, this record involves Executive Producer Howard Thompson, renowned for his contributions as a record industry executive (Elektra, Island, Almo Sounds), having discovered and/or worked with Adam and the Ants, Billy Bragg, MC5, Mötorhead, PiL, Psychedelic Furs, Robyn Hitchcock, The Sugarcubes, Suicide, among others.

Described as ‘artistic and inventive’ and ‘gorgeous', Tulipomania's animated music videos have been featured in film festivals worldwide.

Tulipomania also created animated music videos - 'Hush' and 'Shock To The Body' - for Cabaret Voltaire founder / frontman Stephen Mallinder in support of his solo album 'tick, tick, tick' (out now via Dais Records).

As of October 26, 'Then and Only Then’ is available everywhere, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp. On November 17, the full 'Dreaming of Sleep' album will be released on CD, vinyl and digitally. It can be pre-ordered via Bandcamp.

SKELETAL REMAINS Announces New Album, Shares Cannibalistic Music Video for New Single, "Void of Despair"

American death metal purveyors SKELETAL REMAINS will be releasing their brand new full-length, 'Fragments of the Ageless,' via Century Media Records on March 8, 2024! To celebrate the forthcoming opus, the band is now unleashing the first vicious attack from the new offering! The brutalizing new single, "Void of Despair," can be found along with a cannibalistic music video, directed by Dillon Vaughn, below.

The band comments: “We are very proud to present our first single entitled ‘Void of Despair!' Inspired by the true horrors of the many men lost at sea, who after depleting all of their resources and food, turned to cannibalism for survival. We gave the old stories our own twist by having the crew set on a ship lost in the eternal void of deep space. The aggression and spastic riffs swirling throughout the song perfectly express the feeling to an endless losing battle of sanity and starvation, thus succumbing to their demise. We hope you enjoy!"

Pre-orders and additional album details for 'Fragments of the Ageless' will be announced at a later date. In the meantime, the single is now available for streaming on all services HERE.

In addition, SKLETAL REMAINS will be embarking on an extensive North American tour in support of Suffocation and Incantation, with additional support coming from Stabbing. The band will bookend the tour with additional headlining dates as well. The full itinerary can be found below!

Portland postpunk duo SKY LIONS presents 'Werewolves' single with animalistic video from debut 'Inside The Circle' album

"Outsider music... blending gothic tones, cavernous rock atmospheres, hypnotic electronica, and alternative experimentation. It runs from Sabbath-esque doom-laden guitars to Banshees dark and delicious soundscaping, from Patti Smith’s punk swagger to Bauhausian broken sonic poeticism" ~ Big Takeover Magazine

"A realm of drama and mystery, an arcane place emotively dark and musically enlivening" ~ Ringmaster Review

"A slow dark gothic builder that keeps threatening to explode, as the pitch-black take of despair unfolds... haunting every moment on the night, slowly stalking them, drawing them into the darkest reaches beneath that toxic sky as everything slides further into the abyss" ~ Whisperin' and Hollerin' 

"Pronounced and haunting... A winding labyrinth of dark allure, they weave a rich tapestry of sound" ~ Amplify Music Magazine


Portland-based music mavericks Sky Lions present their animated video for 'Werewolves' with animalistic flavour, lifted from their recently released debut album 'Inside The Circle'. This nine-track offering presents a powerful blend of post-punk with alternative and hard rock.

Made up of Radio Sloan and Outer Stace, Sky Lions is a project with roots that trace back to when the two met as children at a summer day camp in Oregon. Beginning to play music together in their mid-teens, the two enjoy an almost psychic ability to communicate with one another musically, creating music that inspires them and is inspired by one another's vibrancy during the writing process, the world around them, and trust in each other’s vision.  

"Werewolves, in part, is about the idea of shifting from our outer selves to our inner selves, the fleeting peace that can bring; transformation and adaptation...So, the art direction possibilities were pretty endless. It was a lot of fun to create the different versions of ourselves that we could be. Also, I love to find creative tech and new tools. So, discovering the tools along with what is now a growing process, was so fun. I guess I'd say that the video, like the album, is a basement born exercise in artist freedom," says Outer Stace.

"It's like a metamorphic reality of death and the future. It feels like things we've seen," says Radio Sloan. "Our sound is that of accepting existence for all its flaws. Sky Lions has a darkness that isn't entirely heavy metal, post-punk or darkwave. Rather, it’s a culmination of who we have been, who we currently are, and how we interpret the world around us. Moving within that world is the core of our musical expression.

From early days experimenting with instruments to their evolution into Sky Lions, they've carved a niche where innovation, music, feminism, Trans/queer identity and horror come together. Sky Lions weaves together the threads of life's absurdity, unquestionable magic and tragedy. Their trans / queer / feminist lens adds a relatability of lives lived and times to come, creating an immersive sonic journey that challenges the mind and ears. Through genre-blurring compositions and evocative lyrics, they hope to channel their ethos into a call for transformation ! They hope that their songs challenge stereotypes, and ignite conversation.

"Neither of us have worked so hard on a musical project in our lives. Life does what life will do, and while we started out making music together as teenagers, our paths took different turns in our adult lives, though we never lost touch. Radio is a prolific songwriter and I will write on anything with a surface when a lyric comes to mind. Together, we decided it was time to make what we wanted to make and how we wanted to make it," says Outer Stace.

"The expectations of others were not a consideration for us when we recorded this album. It was an exorcism, a purging of sounds and words we had not previously had the capacity for, as it is such a complex project. Today, we are ready and have poured our love, freely expressed ideas and the deepest parts of our souls into the writing, production, artwork for this record."

While half of the genre bending, post-punk art rock queercore duo The Need, Radio Sloan also has a colorful history that includes being the guitarist in Courtney Love’s touring band The Chelsea, and also in Scarling and Peaches' live band The Herms. While releasing music as a solo artist, Radio Sloan has also been involved in numerous other artists' projects, including contributing guitar for Le Tigre, co-writing for The Transfused and composing music for soundtracks and scores, including 'The Herstory of Riot Grrrl'.

Apart from Sky Lions, Outer Stace is known to many as the vocalist for Portland electro-rock / gothic / post-punk band Photona and synth-drum duo Time Bitch.

'Inside The Circle' is out now, available digitally from fine music platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify and Bandcamp.

Floya Share "Stay" Video — WATCH

FLOYA are back with a bang. Following their audacious blend of rock and EDM with "Willows," the duo has been hard at work perfecting unreleased album tracks. The result is "Stay."

Watch the video below.

Stream the song here.

The track is a testament to the duo's dedication to pushing creative boundaries and penchant for fusion.
 
Hailing from Germany, Marv Wilder and Phil Bayer found common ground by talking about their childhood influences, namely Peter Gabriel, U2, and Sting. With the vision in mind to fuse a fresh pop x rock sound with the aesthetics of EDM and world music, the pair set out to showcase something fresh and new.

After the successful launch of the single "The Hymn," the song was featured in an official AFL game between Port Adelaide and the Western Bulldogs on Australian Television, marking quite the achievement for such a new act.
