THE DEAD DASIES KICK IT UP A GEAR AND RELEASE ‘BUSTLE AND FLOW’

After the global success of their first single, The Dead Daisies have been chomping at the bit to release ‘Bustle and Flow’, the next track from their upcoming album ‘Holy Ground’. 

“Filled with energy and vigor, ‘Bustle and Flow’ emerged as one of the last tracks to make the cut. It builds and builds and has great movement.  It’s about walking through the fear,” says Glenn Hughes.

In a time surrounded with so much uncertainty, this track imparts a spirit and zest that should get you on your front foot, challenge your fears and back onto life’s battlefield …

David Lowy has this to say about the song: “I love the timing of the riff. It’s unusual and unexpected, kinda like a surprise. The chorus is a classic mix of Aussie rock (me), UK rock (Glenn) and US rock (Doug/Deen). It’s unmistakably borne out of the DNA of The Dead Daisies, pure badass rock."

A bespoke spellbinding animation, built in Unreal Engine for ‘Bustle and Flow’ has been created by Creative Works London, (live concert graphic artists for Guns N’ Roses and Aerosmith, amongst others). It takes you on a journey through an animated ominous carnival, set against the backdrop of church ruins with a raven that’s sure to send a tingle up your spine. 

The Animated Music Experience (A.M.E) will premiere on Thursday October 1st with louder.com - UK 5PM BST, classicrock.net EU 6PM CEST and ultimateclassicrock.comUS 12PM midday EST.

‘Holy Ground’ is the first collaboration, for Glenn, Doug, Deen and David, recorded at La Fabrique Studios in the South of France with producer Ben Grosse.  Glenn’s lyrics ‘In the white chateau in the bustle and flow’, pays homage to the historic studios.  The album ‘Holy Ground’ will be released January 22, 2021.

An initiative around Record Store Day in the US will see a limited edition 12” LP Vinyl available in stores on October 30th.  For those of you not in the US, stay tuned for more details.

Eager to get on the road again, the Daisies are heading to Europe in February & March 2021 to kick off their Get Out Of The House Tour, followed by a series of dates across the UK, US, Canada, Japan, Australia, Arenas with Foreigner, Judas Priest and the prestigious European summer festivals.

Rock is Indeed Alive & Well!!!

THE DEVIL'S TRADE Shares Live Performance Video for "Dead Sister"

Dark singer-songwriter act THE DEVIL'S TRADE is now streaming a brand new live video for the highly emotional track, "Dead Sister." The song is taken from TDT's debut album 'The Call of the Iron Peak,' which is out now. The video was recorded during the very special album release show in Budapest (HU) last month. 

THE DEVIL'S TRADE comment on the video: "After a seven months long hiatus in playing live, especially in these times of uncertainty and resignation, stepping on a stage was such a moving experience! I know I am among the luckiest musicians to have the chance to do what I love the most and can't give enough thanks the people who made this possible. The venue Dürer Kert is one of the last independent underground facilities in Hungary that is home for so many musicians and music lovers since 2008. It is now the next victim of the greed of our government. Not only do we have all these beautiful memories of the concerts of the bands we admire or our own shows but a few hundred bands had their rehearsal places and studios here. Both of the last two The Devil's Trade albums were recorded here. This place was a shelter for us but we have to move out and the venue has a hopeless future too. The release show of 'The Call Of The Iron Peak' was the last one for me there."

'The Call of the Iron Peak' can be pre-ordered HERE.

Listen to the call of the Iron Peak. It is calling for you to find your true self in a world you want to be isolated from. It is calling for you to make peace with yourself, with the inevitable end. It is calling for Hungarian singer-songwriter Dávid Makó, who redefined himself as The Devil’s Trade a few years ago, embarking on a long journey with his deeply personal and dark, sometimes doom infused folk songs.

Be it the folk of the Appalachians or the tales of Hungarian and Transylvanian traditionals, The Devil’s Trade fuses his past of metal and his roots laying deep in the folk songs of his immediate surroundings.

Very much like how the Iron Peak, a mountaintop both metaphorical and literal is calling for Makó, he is calling for you to share his rituals of loves and hopes lost and found along the pilgrimage of his. It is after all, the journey itself that matters the most, and how you adapt. From basements in his hometown of Budapest, to all corners of Europe, stages small and big, The Devil’s Trade has been relentlessly walking on his path finding his voice and calling, and that is to let listeners to glimpse into himself through his heart wrenching songs.

His new album, and his debut for Season of Mist, titled ‘The Call of the Iron Peak’ is to be released August 28, 2020. 

Line-up:
Dávid Makó - vocals, guitars, banjo

Studio: Templom Studio (HU)

OBSIDIAN KINGDOM Streams Entire New Album

Barcelona's experimental rockers OBSIDIAN KINGDOM have partnered with Prog Magazine to stream their new album, 'MEAT MACHINE,' ahead of tomorrow's release! 

The album can still be ordered HERE

The band comments: "The moment of truth has come! We wrote 'MEAT MACHINE' to find something within ourselves, but we did it for you. Not because we wanted to show you our insides, but rather to encourage you to undertake the same adventure. It is violent and disturbing, like cutting open a living thing; and also messy and painful, because we had to make up our surgical tools on the go. The results of the autopsy are thrilling, baffling and somewhat beautiful. Putting this together took a great deal of effort and suffering, and our trip wasn’t always funny. But we believe it was worth it, regardless of the outcome. So did we lose the plot, or have we discovered something new and exciting? Ride the machine and find out! "

'MEAT MACHINE' is a harsh sonic journey, abject and stentorian like a love letter from a school shooter. The perverse album is a rough drop into a nightmarish world of forbidden desires, frustrated sexual urges and the dark realms of the subconscious mind. The album art and track list can be found below.

Pre-orders for 'MEAT MACHINE' are now live HERE.

“Proof that some of the best music does indeed elude easy classification" - POPMATTERS

OBSIDIAN KINGDOM is devoted to exploring the boundaries of rock music. The Barcelonan band defies classification to this very day, drawing equally on progressive rock, post-metal, alternative and electronic music. However hard to pigeonhole, it remains consistent with delivering exciting artistry that never fails to surprise its audience.

Forever on a restless journey to find its true identity, the quintet has been dubbed “the masters of every genre” by Metal Injection. Featuring a heavy and intense sound with plenty of contrast, its main features are the ability to portray a wide range of emotions through the use of multiple sonic resources, a deep interest in aesthetics and the sombre quality of the lyrical topics.

‘MEAT MACHINE’ is an exercise in self-discovery, through a head-first plunge into the anxiety derived from sexual frustration, the absurd of reality and the inherent cruelty of a mechanized world. It is a demanding album that reads as an emotional roller-coaster, featuring an abrasive and overwhelming sound that draws equally from noise and art rock, post metal and late 90s alternative music.

BOUNDARIES SHARE NEW SINGLE “BEHIND THE BEND” AFTER SECRET DEBUT TO FANS

"Behind the Bend" is from Boundaries upcoming album, Your Receding Warmth, out November 13th, 2020. Pre-order now at https://boundaries.merchnow.com or find ...

DEBUT FULL-LENGTH YOUR RECEDING WARMTH
 OUT NOV 13th VIA UNBEATEN RECORDS

Today, the Connecticut metal group, Boundaries, shared the newest single “Behind The Bend” and the accompanying video from their debut album, Your Receding Warmth, due out November 13th via Unbeaten Records. In a show of appreciation to their fans, the band secretly released the track a day early to those who ordered the vinyl repress of the band’s first official release, Hartford County Misery, earlier this summer. While Boundaries may have come a long way since that 2017 EP, the deep connection to their fans has never wavered, and “Behind The Bend” is sure to stoke the flames of anticipation for their debut album even further. The track follows one's last step backward into the helplessness of rock bottom before progression in life is possible, mixing some of their quietest yet most haunting moments with cruel mid-paced riffs that culminate in crushing results. Recorded with producer Randy Leboeuf at Graphic Nature Audio, Your Receding Warmth feels like a long-awaited defining moment for Boundaries and Unbeaten Records and their spreading of ruthless metalcore over the past few years. 

Your Receding Warmth is available to preorder here 

More about Boundaries:
Boundaries have been turning heads since their 2015 formation in central Connecticut. Anchored by a terrifying live set and EPs that have reached the status of ‘underground classic’, the quintet has bubbled just below the surface for the past three years as they laid waste with their concoction of searing riffs, crushing breakdowns, and intimate lyrics delivered with vessel-bursting rage.

While on the rise, Boundaries has toured relentlessly, sharing stages with the likes of The Acacia Strain, Currents, Knocked Loose, and Spite, and truly established their identity with the release of their 2019 EP My Body In Bloom through Unbeaten Records. The tightly knit crew - Matthew McDougal (singer) Zadak Brooks (bass) Cory Emond (guitar) Junior Scarpa (guitar) Tim “cheese” Sullivan (drums) - pull influences from the bands who first inspired their love of heavy music such as Slipknot, Linkin Park, Static X. While those seminal groups might not be heard in the band’s output, the sonic weight of their latest effort is a fitting tribute to these early influences on the band. 

This fall, Boundaries will again partner with Unbeaten Records on their debut full-length, Your Receding Warmth. The record finds the band taking more chances than ever while building upon their inherent ferocity, stories of bleak existence, and the knack for keeping an audience on their toes that has drawn so many people to the band.

Nitesoil is a new, bi-coastal death metal project, which consists of Frank Godla (Metal Injection, Meek Is Murder, Enabler) and Nick Emde (Contracult Collective, White Widows Pact).

Every track on the upcoming record features a different guest vocalist; each of whom were handpicked and engineered by the band themselves. Abusement Park was mixed and mastered by Will Putney at Graphic Nature Audio.

The band debuted at Godla's Slay At Home Festival this May with the single "Soil Born"featuring Riley McShane of Allegeaon

Commenting on the formation of Nitesoil and the process behind their studio debut, Godla states, "We started this band as a joke we thought no one would hear; a folder of sick riffs from Nick titled "Slammy Sosa". Once I spent weeks rearranging and tracking grooves, black mailing some killer death metal vocalists to come over to my house and participate, and kidnapping one of the sickest engineers in the game to mix and master this shit in order to be released...we're still a joke. But at least it sounds legit, and it's all for charity you chumps!"

"Their debut album, self-titled, brims with promise as the power trio roll through hefty riffs, buzzing noise and melodic vocals." - Decibel Magazine

"an eclectic brew of fuzzy stoner rock that draws heavily on frontman Andrew Elstner’s past work with Torche, with just enough melodic interplay to keep it on the fun side of the spectrum." - Metal Sucks

VOUS AUTRES Streams New Entire New Album Ahead of Release

Only a year after the full-length debut record, the French black metal band VOUS AUTRES return with their second album. 'Sel de Pierre' represents a shimmer ...

French post black metal formation VOUS AUTRES will be releasing the full-length 'Sel de Pierre' on September 25 via Season of Mist Underground Activists! The record can be heard in full before its release at THIS LOCATION.

'Sel de Pierre' can be pre-ordered HERE.

Only a year after the full-length debut record, the French black metal band VOUS AUTRES return with their second album. ‘Sel de Pierre’ represents a shimmer of hope among the vast, dark soundscapes that this modern post black metal duo creates.
 
VOUS AUTRES is a two-headed post metal / black metal band hailing from Nantes, France. As enigmatic as it gets, the duo creates a dark, ambient, and tormented sound, blended into the everlasting retrieval of what seems forever lost to human's inherent evil.

Formed in 2017, band members ₣ and β introduced the world to their experimental and modern take on black metal with the debut EP ‘Trente Pièces d’Argent’.

Two years later, the transcendental and epic sophomore record ‘Champ du Sang’ (2019) followed. Always summoning the darkest and most sublime melody, VOUS AUTRES battled with their demons through powerful riffs and breakdowns, sounding like the trample of the marching feet of a thousand-men army, ready to engage in a one-way fight against their enemy.

The French black metallers now return with ‘Sel de Pierre’, an album where a glimpse of light cracks into the gigantic wall of despair and melancholy VOUS AUTRES used to build.

As sharp and beautiful as a blooming black thistle, ‘Sel de Pierre’ summons wide panoramas of nature: from the crumpled lands to the menacing seas, taking the listener from place to place without ever revealing when and where this unique sound came from.

The journey through ‘Sel de Pierre’ is as intense as its predecessors. Only now, hope is summoned into a place where is has no apparent meaning, yet it has a reason to be. 

VOUS AUTRES is not just another French blackened metal sensation you have to keep an eye on, but a quantum leap into the epic proportions modern black metal can take.
 

Genre: Post black metal 

Line-up: 
β : Lead Vocals
₣ : Guitars, Bass, Synths, Vocals

Guest vocals:
Maxime Fevbet from DELUGE : Vocals on "Vesuve"
RSTD : Vocals on "In Humus"

Cover Artwork: Romain Barbot

With metal shows at a standstill, the dwarven army of WIND ROSE are foraying into yet uncharted territory, leaving their caves to conquer dance halls and the stay-at-home, “solo dance sessions” of those in lockdown. While many bands are coming up with virtual plans to entertain fans, WIND ROSE have flipped the script and taken on a whole new genre!

Can’t party with your friends? Feel the beat from your seat! Closed rock clubs and concert venues can’t stop the march of the dwarven army! Expand your musical horizons with the ultimate dance remix of WIND ROSE’s breakthrough single “Diggy Diggy Hole” (over 17.5 million views on Youtube, 9 million on Spotify)! Back in 2019, it was probably the most shouted song on open air festival campgrounds in 2019. One year later, the “Diggy Diggy Hole”-Mania enters dancing clubs around the world.

“While metal festivals have been cancelled, some disco clubs remain open! We’re not sure why this is allowed, but if we can’t have metal… then… Challenge Accepted!”

-WIND ROSE-

After all this is over, the dwarves will take you back where they belong to - straight into the caves through which the rivers of beer, mead and metal flows! Back to drunken nights, tavern brawls, singing and partying until the last dwarf falls. Let them take you to “Drunken Dwarves”:

“We don`t write songs, we smith them against the anvil.” And that`s WIND ROSE in a nutshell! The five-piece that started out in Pisa, Italy in 2009 is no secret to genre connoisseurs thanks to four well-received albums and tours with Gloryhammer, Wintersun, Ensiferum and many more. They have perfected their mixture of heroic steel and folky, mead-drenched anthems in the meantime: party tunes don`t get better than “Diggy Diggy Hole” or “Drunken Dwarves”. Seriously. Counterbalance arrives in shape of epic power metal anthems like “The Art Of War” or “We Were Warriors”, carefully treading the fine line between neck-breaking riffing and dramatic orchestration. Wintersaga is a highly entertaining and unforgettable ride over mountains, snow and ice!

The newest album Wintersaga is available HERE!

WIND ROSE are:

Francesco Cavalieri - vocals

Claudio Falconcini - guitars

Federico Meranda - keyboards

Cristiano Bertocchi - bass 

Federico Gatti - drums

About GREEN CARNATION:
The earnest progressive metal group GREEN CARNATION unveil ‘Leaves of Yesteryear,’ the first new music from the band in 14 years. More approachable than the Norwegian's work in the metal bands IN THE WOODS, EMPEROR, and TRISTANIA; their unpretentious, punchy and smart sound appeals to broad swaths of the rock community.  ‘Leaves of Yesteryear’ serves as both a retrospective look at the band’s storied career while setting the foundation for their future.

Belgian death-dealers CARNATION return with the ripping new full-length album 'Where Death Lies.'

With 'Where Death Lies,' CARNATION have perfected the iron discipline of brutal death metal.

"Rule the world is a cold, hard, unapologetic perspective that many people (especially our youth) are being manipulated and controlled by the media. We now live in a time where we blindly sacrifice our dignity and who we are for social media views. Sadly, many people find their "self worth" in the amount of post likes that they get. We have become so addicted to social media that we are willing to do almost anything to become what they call [famous]" says Mick.

Dutch psychedelic rock formation MOLASSESS has shared "The Devil Lives," the third single

Listen to the new single from psychedelic rock formation Molassess, "The Devil Lives", taken from the forthcoming album "Through the Hollow". Release Date: O...

From their upcoming debut full-length, 'Through the Hollow.' The new track "The Devil Lives" can be found along with an accompanying visualizer, which was created by S. de Jager

The band comments: "Our brother [Selim Lemouchi] left us this diamond in the rough years ago. A riddle that kept resonating and found its way up and into our hearts time after time. It is with great pride, eternal love, an ever-burning fire and gratitude that we finally managed to climb its stairs.


"This is what we’ve found along the way, beneath its stirring coils.
"THE DEVIL LIVES."

Featuring four musicians from THE DEVIL'S BLOOD, MOLASSESS was formed upon being commissioned for a performance during the 2019 edition of Roadburn Festival. Yet, MOLASSESS is not a continuation of a buried past, nor a celebration of a cherished collaborator, but a culmination of heartache, requisite resolution, a rediscovery of rage and the relighting of a fire that never really burned out.

'Through the Hollow" can be pre-ordered HERE.

MOLASSESS was beckoned to life as a commissioned performance for the 2019 edition of Roadburn Festival, five years after THE DEVIL’S BLOOD – a chaotic coterie of musical misfits lead by the efficacious guitarist Selim Lemouchi – ended their fever dance.

The invitation inspired new shoots of creativity to blossom where death had walked. THE DEVIL’S BLOOD’s supernal singer Farida Lemouchi formed new bonds with old cohorts Oeds Beydals, Job van de Zande, and Ron van Herpen (ASTROSONIQ), Bob Hogenelst (BIRTH OF JOY) and Matthijs Stronks (DONNERWETTER). Not a reunion, but a confirmation of deep binds and steadfast connections, much like the substance of their namesake – deep and all-consuming, and impossible to untangle.

Taking their name from the final song on Lemouchi’s solo EP ‘Earth Air Spirit Water’ – and tragically his last mortal offering before his death in 2014, the band is not a continuation of a buried past, nor a celebration of a cherished collaborator, but a culmination of heartache, requisite resolution, a rediscovery of rage and the relighting of a fire that never really burned out.

Recording the music of the Roadburn performance on a two-track single, MOLASSESS released ‘Mourning Haze / Drops Of Sunlight’ via Ván Records in 2019.  The circle was completed once more with the coming together of a tribe that had been torn apart but found their moment of re-connection: being together again, but also being something new.
 
Now, with the band’s first full length, MOLASSESS are setting out on a new path:
 
“Through The Hollow - She proudly carries forth seeds of the past, present and future and cuts loose entirely within the new sonic search of Molassess. An infinite search for personal and spiritual renewal, a remedy for reason and rationality. The state where earth and neither flow inseperable. The new light that follows the one great death.”

Genre: Psychedelic rock 

Line-up:

Oeds Beydals - guitar

Ron van Herpen - guitar

Job van de Zande- bass guitar

Bob Hogenelst- drums and percussion

Matthijs Stronks- keys

Farida Lemouchi- vocals

Recording studio: The Void Studio
 
Producer / sound engineer: Pieter G. Kloos & Molassess

HAMMERFALL Releases Video for Second Single "Keep The Flame Burning"

Pre-Order "Live! Against The World" here: https://smarturl.it/LiveAgainstTheWorld Out on October 23rd

Outstanding Live Album & BluRay, 

Live! Against The World, out on October 23 

Pre-Order NOW!

You gotta keep that flame burning!

HAMMERFALL have just released a second video for “Keep The Flame Burning”, which perfectly captures the highly energetic spirit of HAMMERFALL’s new live album & BluRay, Live! Against The World. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of their chart-storming album Renegade (2000), the song, which rarely appears on their setlists, shines in a bright new light and pushes live productions to the next level. 

With absolutely impressive, grand live production, huge arenas and overwhelming pyrotechnics, HAMMERFALL, the Swedish saviors of Heavy Metal, took over the world in 2019/2020 with their World Dominion tour. On this bombastic tour, they did not only celebrate the worldwide charting success of their freshly released 2019 studio album Dominon, but also the jubilee of the legendary Renegade album, by adding “Keep The Flame Burning” and an impressive Renegade medley to the setlist. 

HAMMERFALL are on the rise with Joacim Cans’ distinctive voice and flawlessly executed guitar parts, which finalize this live record of the legendary show at the MHP Arena in Ludwigsburg, Germany - there’s magic in the air! 

Guitarist and founding member Oscar Dronjak on the new video:

“It’s the 20th anniversary of Renegade, and to celebrate that accordingly we included some special songs in the set list. One of my all-time favourite songs is “Keep The Flame Burning”, and it was so cool to see it return after so many years’ absence!"

Adding in classics like “Any Means Necessary”, “Last Man Standing” and “Let The Hammer Fall” that show off HAMMERFALL’s legendary prowess on both vocals and instruments, the performance continues on to be both surprising and astounding. Special guest Noora Louhimo (Battle Beast) made it possible for HAMMERFALL to display their emotional side with their power ballad “Second To One” live on stage. The show ends with the one song that belongs in every HAMMERFALL experience: the beautiful and heavy “Hearts On Fire”.

Live! Against The World will be available in North America the following formats:

- BluRay + 2 CD Digipak

- 3 LP Gatefold Vinyl Ink Spot Blue / White

- 3 LP Gatefold Vinyl Orange Transparent

- 48 page Earbook, including 2CDs + BluRay

“a huge stage set, masses of pyro, a lighting rig to die for, a set list that is a fan’s wet dream and a crowd so pumped to be part of the event”

-POWERPLAY, UK-

"Pure Heavy Metal - unbelievably powerful sound quality, which authentically captures the energy that the formation ignites on stage. A consistently high-quality affair".

-Legacy, Germany-

As Everything Unfolds Share New Single 'Hiding From Myself'

Subscribe to our channel here: https://LBR.lnk.to/youtube Subscribe to our LBR Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/spv/lbrnlsu Listen to "Hiding From Myself" by A...

British melodic post-hardcore 6-piece As Everything Unfolds share their new single 'Hiding From Myself' along with a music video.

Stream 'Hiding From Myself' here:

https://aseverythingunfolds.lnk.to/hidingfrommyself

Singer Charlotte Rolfe about the new song and the video:

"With 'Hiding From Myself' we wanted to ensure our lyrical content encapsulated the atmosphere of the piece; the chaos, intensity and pace of the song directly relates with the feelings that ensue when battling your own self worth, whilst trying to come out stronger the other side. We are worth every breath we take, every person deserves to feel safe in their own head.

We felt like the single needed a relentless visual to compliment the dynamic ferocity of the song. We wanted chaotic and intense lighting, highlighting the disparity between the usually tranquil setting of a theatre; also utilising highly contrasting colourful visuals to cement the mania you can feel during such pressuring times.”

"More than just a family, more than just a subculture, we stand with everyone who feels like they don't belong. We are hope for the hopeless and joy for the joyless, we are everything you didn't know you needed. We are As Everything Unfolds."

As Everything Unfolds are a 6-piece melodic post-hardcore band from the High Wycombe, U.K. The band is comprised of frontwoman Charlie Rolfe, guitarists Adam Kerr & Owen Hill, bassist George Hunt, synth player Jon Cassidy and drummer Jamie Gowers.

Since the release of their EP, “Closure” in late 2018, now sitting at well over 1’000’000 streams, the band have grown from strength to strength. They’ve toured heavily across the UK & Europe, including performing alongside acts such as ADEPT, Dream State, Our Hollow, Our Home and more.

The success of their previous release saw the band sign to the esteemed Long Branch Records label in 2020. With huge anticipation building for their follow up to “Closure”. Alongside their dedicated fanbase and hard working ethos, the future is strong for the band, the future is As Everything Unfolds.

New Release Date Announced for Live Album – October 16, 2020

10 Year Anniversary - Live In Reykjavík | Pre-Order NOW!

Viking Metal giants SKÁLMÖLD will release their second live album and their first as a solo band, 10 Year Anniversary - Live In Reykjavík, on its new release date of October 16, 2020 via Napalm Records. 

Today, the six-piece reveals the third video taken off the new live album:

“Árás” leads all the way back to SKÁLMÖLD’s origins in January 2010, when they recorded their first demo on music cassette, which included only two songs. Ten years later, the Icelanders are on stage at the three days in a row completely sold out Gamla Bíó in their hometown of Reykjavík, celebrating their jubilee with their most dedicated fans. 

Menacing vocals, fast riffs and protruding drums underline the impressive evolvement the band took since their first demo - clearly audible and viewable on their new live album, 10 Year Anniversary - Live In Reykjavík.

SKÁLMÖLD on “Árás”:

“The third track we present to you from our upcoming live album is 'ÁRÁS'. This song has always been special to us. It is from our debut album and was one of the very first songs we ever wrote. It has been an integral part of our setlist throughout the years. And in a live environment is where it is at its best, with its slow build-up and big choir parts. It is safe to say that this one is very dear to us. We love it and hope you do as well.

Skál!”

10 Years of Pure Viking Spirit - Live On Stage in Reykjavik

Three consecutive sold-out shows at the Gamla Bíó in their hometown of Reykjavík were the adequate setting to celebrate the 10th anniversary together with their devotees. 10 Year Anniversary - Live In Reykjavík transports a mythical atmosphere directly into their fan’s homes.

SKÁLMÖLD on 10 Year Anniversary – Live In Reykjavík:

“In late 2009 we started SKÁLMÖLD. Nothing serious. Was just supposed for the pure fun of meeting up once in a while to play some metal music. Fast forward 10 years and we are celebrating the release of 10 YEARS OF SKÁLMÖLD - Live in Reykjavík. Recorded in the heart of Iceland's capital at one of our 3 amazing sold out shows. Here is SKÁLMÖLD in its purest form - on stage, feeding on the energy of our beloved fans. We feel really proud and happy to present this to you. Enjoy!”

Pre-Order your copy of 10 Year Anniversary - Live In Reykjavík NOW!

Starting off with their chant-worthy song “Heima”, SKÁLMÖLD had concert-goers screaming along from the first second. Quickly transforming into “Árás”, fans almost immediately got to see the wild side of the band which manifests in menacing vocals, fast riffs and protruding drums. SKÁLMÖLD classics, like the story of Loki's son, “Narfi”, and just how dangerous and manipulative Loki’s children truly are, were essential for the setlist. “Niðavellir”, the obscure home of the dwarves, tells the story of tombs and caves, underlined with propelling drums and heavy rhythms. This is pure Viking Spirit!

SKÁLMÖLD is:

Baldur Ragnarsson - Guitar/Vocals

Björgvin Sigurðsson - Vocals/Guitar

Gunnar Ben - Keyboards/Vocals/Oboe

Jón Geir Jóhannsson - Drums/Vocals

Snæbjörn Ragnarsson - Bass/Vocals

Þráinn Árni Baldvinsson - Guitar/Vocals

SONG FEATURES CHARLIE STARR OF BLACKBERRY SMOKE

NEW ALBUM PRESSURE ARRIVES OCTOBER 16 RELEASE VIA SNAKEFARM RECORDS 

Tyler Bryant & The Shakedown have just dropped the lyric video for the new song "Holdin' My Breath."

"'Holdin' My Breath' was written long before the pandemic," Tyler Bryant says. "It was written before any of the madness. When we started compiling songs for the new album, this song stood out. The lyrics hit us harder than they did when the song was originally written. While it felt pertinent to the times, it gave us a sense of hope. Adding our friend Charlie Starr from Blackberry Smoke only elevated this feeling. We hope it can evoke the same for the listener as we all hold tight for better days."

The Nashville-based band dealt with a world tipped into turmoil during the global pandemic by creating new music amid lockdown conditions. The end result is their fourth album Pressure, out on October 16 via Snakefarm Records worldwide. Pressure is career-best work forged during turbulent times. 

Pressure is available to pre-order here. Pre-save the album to your digital streaming platform of choice here.
