STELLAR CIRCUITS UNVEIL EXPANDED PHANTOM :: PHOENIX (DIRECTOR’S CUT)

September 1, 2026

North Carolina progressive alt-metal innovators STELLAR CIRCUITS have released Phantom :: Phoenix (Director’s Cut), the definitive edition of their acclaimed third studio album, available now digitally via Nuclear Blast Records. The release pairs the original record with four additional tracks unveiled over the past several months: ‘Spotlight,’ ‘Wounded Healer,’ ‘Stargazer’ and ‘In The Smoke.’

Cinematic, visceral and emotionally charged, Phantom :: Phoenix (Director’s Cut) further explores the album’s themes of transformation and rebirth, moving between light and darkness, destruction and renewal. The new material builds upon the progressive intricacy, crushing heaviness and atmospheric depth that have become hallmarks of STELLAR CIRCUITS’ evolving sound.

Following 2023’s Sight To Sound and the original release of Phantom :: Phoenix in 2025, the Director’s Cut represents another step forward for STELLAR CIRCUITS, bringing the album’s journey full circle while continuing to push the band into new creative territory.

Stream Phantom :: Phoenix (Director’s Cut) Below:

Following the release, STELLAR CIRCUITS will bring their ever-evolving sound overseas for an extensive European and UK tour with EVERGREY and IGNEA this fall. Beginning November 11th in Lund, Sweden, the month-long run will take the band throughout Scandinavia, mainland Europe, the UK and Ireland before wrapping December 12th in Maastricht, Netherlands.

ENSLAVED - announces new studio album 'Mið' & reveals new track/video 'Solar Will'

August 20, 2026

Progressive trailblazers Enslaved have officially announced their forthcoming studio album, Mið, set for release on October 30 via Nuclear Blast Records. Throughout their 35 year journey, across 17 albums, the Norwegian vanguard have continually redefined the boundaries of progressive black metal, weaving Old Norse histories and sacred traditions into complex modern soundscapes. With their latest offering, Enslaved turn their gaze toward the fundamental concept of the axis: the middle, the origin, and the infinite reach of the present moment.

Alongside this news, the band have unveiled the transcendant new single 'Solar Will', both a paean to a divine spark, and a testament to the album title’s fundamental concept: a centre whose reach is infinite. It's accompanying video was created by Kolibri Media, long term partners of Enslaved based in Bergen.

Guitarist Ivar Bjørnson stated:
"There have been sun cults as long as Magic Man has been around (at least). The Sun is a nurturing and terrifying parent that can grant as well as obliterate life totally. Such a classic and awe-inspiring object of our worship and myths requires classic and awesome riffs, Bonham-esque drum grooves and blistering melodic flares celebrating its horrific glory. This is what that sounds like to me: “Solar Will”!"

Voicalist / bassist Grutle Kjellson adds:

“Solar Will explores archetypal conflicts, those that manifest in nature, the cosmos, mythology, and, above all, within the human mind. In this instance, the central struggle is expressed through one of the enduring rivalries found in Norse mythology, embodied by two important, though often somewhat overlooked, figures within the pantheon. Readers familiar with the Norse mythological tradition will likely recognize the identities rather instantly, yet I shall refrain from naming them, allowing each reader the opportunity to engage with and decipher the lyrics on their own. After all, perhaps this is one of the essential functions of lyric writing: to invite interpretation and cultivate a sense of wonder? The conclusion, or more precisely, the absence of one, suggests that, for human beings, chaos and dreams are at least as significant as the realities we perceive through our senses. Ultimately, the work advocates not for resolution, but for the acceptance, assimilation, and shaping of these often contradictory forces."

Tickets available here: Tour - Enslaved

Never faltering, Norway’s iconic Enslaved continue to exist as one of the most original and dependable components in our scene's indestructible backbone. Possessing the reputation as one of the most riveting live acts around, they never fail to offer us talent of the highest calibre, always doing justice to their signature black/progressive sound. Enslaved was formed in 1991 by Ivar Bjørnson and Grutle Kjellson, releasing their first demo Yggdrasill in the summer of 1992, their legendary mini-album Hordanes Land coming out in 1993, and with their debut full-length Vikingligr Veldi arriving in the spring of 1994.

It’s a rare and remarkable feat that 35 years and now 17 albums in, Enslaved’s horizons still continue to expand. Every stage of the Bergen band’s evolution, every new phase entered, has felt like an organic act of discovery and renewal. Their journey has been at once a commitment to a promise that found its embryonic form in the Norwegian black metal scene they emerged from, and a willingness to challenge both orthodoxy and themselves from the off to make that potential manifest.

Enslaved’s new album, Mið, an Old Norse word for ‘centre’, or ‘middle’, marks another departure, and another new beginning. The band have always dealt in states of transition, nor least on the thematically linked, mythology-steeped rites of passage that were 2020’s Utgard and 2023’s Heimdal. What lay beyond, however, was… unexpected.

Mið is an album that sheds light on harmonies and dialogues embedded all around us: between the ways of the past, and how they can bring enlightenment to the present, between small kernels of truth and their ability to project onto the most universal on canvases, and between band members relying on instinct and each other to create a record that galvanises on every possible level.

GRAVEYARD - release stomping new single 'A Means To An End' + start pre-order for new album 'Fever'

August 16, 2026

One of the most distinctive and revered forces in modern rock music, Sweden's very own GRAVEYARD are back with a brand new single, 'A Means To An End', the first glimpse at their highly anticipated 7th studio album Fever, which will be released on October 9th, 2026 worldwide on Nuclear Blast Records.

Arriving three years after the gloomier, introverted Six, GRAVEYARD are literally turning up the heat by delivering a sonic experience that is drenched in fuzz and distortion, sporting massive Sabbath-ian grooves on opener ‘Back From The Grave’, CCR fuelled grandeur on ‘Time To Tell’ and straight-forward, hard hitting rock on ‘Room Tempered’, ‘Tongue Tied’ and ‘Means To An End’. Formed in 2006, the band collectively emphasizes the fierce spirit of the album.

With Fever, the band returns to the forefront of the scene with a noticeably heavier, more direct sound. They’ve entrusted the mixing duties to Pelle Gunnerfeldt who is widely renowned for capturing the ferocious energy of bands such as The Hives, Refused, and recently Viagra Boys whereas mastering was handled by Robin Schmidt at 24-96 Mastering. Amidst its sheer drive, GRAVEYARD retained the undeniable, blues-soaked soul that originally defined their breakthrough album, Hisingen Blues, on slower songs like album closer ‘Dead Note’ yet with a good dose of fiery anger.

After the fairly subtle, mysterious art on Six, GRAVEYARD went for a striking visual approach on Fever relying on acclaimed Dutch artist Maarten Donders who cooperated with the band on their Split 7” with Goat, and whose work has been prominently showcased at cult festival Roadburn, featuring designs for more than 50 artists, ranging from Acid King to legendary Frank Zappa.

With two number-one albums in Sweden already to their name, GRAVEYARD will initiate the touring cycle with a co-headline run through Scandinavia with Blues Pills to properly celebrate the release of Fever, followed by Europe/UK wide touring and festivals in 2027.

Brace for impact, GRAVEYARD came back from the grave and they caught a Fever.

GREEN LUNG - Hijack The Airwaves With New Single 'Black Magick Radio'

August 13, 2026

In the outlaw spirit of 1960s pirate radio, Green Lung have hijacked the airwaves to broadcast their own distinctive form of sonic propaganda. Turning the dial left and tuning into vintage influences from Lucifer’s Friend to Black Widow, new single 'Black Magick Radio' traces the history of occult rock itself, as well as namechecking London proto-goth landmarks such as Le Macabre (a Soho cafe where you could ‘drink your coffee off a coffin’) and The Process Church of the Final Judgement (a pre-Manson cult based in Mayfair). A celebration of magickal rock through the ages and around the world, this new transmission will charm initiates and ipsissimi alike.

'Black Magick Radio' is taken from Green Lung's upcoming studio record, Necropolitan, due out on Friday September 11th 2026. A monumental portrait of the power of nature over the dreams and dominion of humankind, Necropolitan is also a grand celebration of the occult lore and heavy music scene of the band’s birthplace, the city of London.

A video directed by Billy Howard Price premieres today, featuring a model suburban family rendered helpless in the radius of the song’s occult power.

With producer Tom Dalgety (Opeth, Ghost) at the helm, this time handling everything from recording to mixing, the band decamped to Rockfield Studios in January 2026, following in the muddy footprints of some of their key inspirations, from Black Sabbath to Queen to Judas Priest. Sonically, they were set on capturing their megalithic live sound more accurately than ever - stripping back their usual dense, multilayered arrangements to their rawest, leanest form and recording much of the album live to capture their Sabbathian heaviness, frenzied Hammonds and haunting Mellotrons as faithfully as possible.

The result is an album that combines the soaring hookiness of This Heathen Land with an uncompromising rawness and heaviness, and takes the band’s distinctive brand of sonic storytelling to macabre new heights.

If, a year after Black Sabbath’s Back to the Beginning show and the death of Ozzy Osbourne, you had any doubts about the future of traditional British metal, Necropolitan will lay them to rest. Here is a band taking the torch from the heavy metal godfathers and running with it, bursting with all the musicianship and storytelling flair that has kept the genre’s flame burning for a half-century, and using it to temper a lyrical and sonic world that is entirely their own.

A cult band in every sense of the word, Green Lung emerged from London’s heavy rock scene with self-released debut EP Free the Witch (2018).

Drawing on a host of peculiarly British musical influences, from doomy hard rock to pastoral prog and psych to the Hammer Horror theatrics of the NWOBHM, the band have swiftly risen to the forefront of the UK metal scene.

Lyrically celebrating the folklore, myths and legends of Britain, they conjure the wild and witchy spirit of their forebears for a new generation.

Green Lung have released three critically acclaimed albums, Woodland Rites (2019), Black Harvest (2021) and This Heathen Land (2023). They have toured internationally with Clutch, Opeth and Unto Others, and performed on festival stages from Roadburn to Download. Their latest album This Heathen Land landed at #1 on the UK’s Official Rock and Metal Album Chart.

STELLAR CIRCUITS RELEASE NEW SINGLE 'IN THE SMOKE'

August 4, 2026

Alternative metal innovators STELLAR CIRCUITS have unveiled their powerful new single, ‘In the Smoke,’ alongside an official visualizer, available today via Nuclear Blast Records.

Following an impressive run of standalone releases throughout 2026, including ‘Spotlight,’ ‘Wounded Healer,’ and ‘Stargazer,’ ‘In the Smoke’ finds STELLAR CIRCUITS continuing to expand their signature blend of crushing heaviness, immersive atmosphere, and emotionally charged songwriting. Equal parts forceful and introspective, the track further demonstrates the band's ability to balance technical precision with deeply expressive composition.

Moving between driving intensity and moments of fragile restraint, ‘In the Smoke’ explores the uneasy space where clarity dissolves into fixation. Crushing riffs give way to disoriented calm as the song lingers in themes of failure, surrender, and obsession, capturing the feeling of becoming consumed by something that clouds every thought until nothing else remains in focus.

‘IN THE SMOKE’ VISUALIZER BELOW:

Released in late 2025 to widespread praise from fans and critics alike, Phantom :: Phoenix represented a defining moment for STELLAR CIRCUITS, showcasing the band's ability to merge progressive complexity, crushing heaviness, and cinematic atmosphere with deeply personal songwriting. Exploring themes of rebirth, perseverance, and self-discovery through tracks such as ‘I See Your Spirit,’ ‘Corridor,’ and ‘Bury The Ashes,’ the album further cemented the band's reputation for crafting emotionally resonant music without sacrificing technical prowess or intensity.

Building on that momentum, STELLAR CIRCUITS have spent 2026 on an impressive creative run, releasing a string of standalone singles including ’Spotlight,’ ‘Wounded Healer,’ ‘Stargazer’ and now ‘In The Smoke.’ Each release has further expanded the band's sonic palette while reinforcing the dynamic songwriting and emotional depth that continue to define their evolution.

Later this year, STELLAR CIRCUITS will embark on an extensive European tour with EVERGREYand IGNEA, bringing their latest material to fans across the continent.

CULT ICON SHERI MOON ZOMBIE UNVEILS DEBUT SINGLE & VIDEO "I LOVE MY ROBOT"

July 27, 2026

Cult icon, actress, designer, and longtime horror favorite SHERI MOON ZOMBIE expands her creative universe today with the release of her debut single and music video, "I Love My Robot." Helmed by acclaimed producer Zeuss and accompanied by a video directed by ROB ZOMBIE, the track blends retro sci-fi, playful camp, and infectious hooks into an irresistibly offbeat anthem that is unmistakably SHERI.

Equal parts tongue-in-cheek and surprisingly timely, "I Love My Robot" offers a witty take on life in an increasingly algorithm-driven world. Beneath its infectious energy and B-movie charm, the song celebrates imagination, individuality, and the simple joy of thinking for yourself. It's a playful reminder that while technology may make life easier, nothing can replace genuine creativity or human connection.

Coinciding with today's release, Nuclear Blast has launched pre-orders for an exclusive 12-inch picture disc featuring "I Love My Robot" on Side A and Rob Zombie's "Sir Lord Acid Wolfman" on Side B. Limited to just 600 copies worldwide (500 US / 100 EU), the one-time pressing is scheduled for release on October 30, making it an essential collector's item for fans of the Zombieuniverse.

The release also arrives ahead of ROB ZOMBIE’s North American summer tour with MARILYN MANSON in support of his latest studio album, The Great Satan, further celebrating a creatively prolific year for the ZOMBIE camp.

EIVØR - announces new studio album Tungl; unveils song Drekafljóð / Dragon Maiden

July 19, 2026

Transcendent Faroese artist Eivør has unveiled the next phase of her remarkable artistic journey. On October 16th this year, Eivør will release her new studio album, Tungl, the Faroese word meaning ‘moon’.

Eivør has offered a deeper glimpse into her newest musical vision with the release of new song Drekafljóð / Dragon Maiden accompanied by a breathtaking video filmed in Svínadalur, Iceland, by director Krassasig (Kristinn Arnar Sigurðsson). Watch Below.

Eivør imparts about the song:

"I’m excited to share my new song, Drekafljóð / Dragon Maiden, with you.

The song is a tribute to the fierce, intuitive force that lives within us all. While my previous single, Healer, explored resilience, Dragon Maiden feels more like an awakening, a reminder of the power that has always been within you.

The song began as a poem that had been quietly living in the back of my mind for a long time. I wanted to capture that beautiful, liberating feeling of letting go of the need to control everything and opening yourself to whatever life may bring. I invited one of my favourite poetic minds, Marjun S. Kjelnæs, to finish the poem with me, and I’m so proud of what we created together.

I produced and recorded the song with my partner in crime, Tróndur Bogason, and my band. I wanted it to feel playful and danceable, while still carrying an undercurrent of melancholy. I love the contrast between movement and stillness, light and shadow, and I think this song lives somewhere between those worlds.

Dragon Maiden is about trusting your intuition, embracing uncertainty, and finding the courage to surrender to life's unfolding. Sometimes the strongest thing we can do is stop trying to control everything and simply allow ourselves to be carried forward. I hope this song encourages people to reconnect with that part of themselves."

Eivør will spend the summer performing across Europe, appearing at leading festivals including Paléo Festival, Brutal Assault, Summer Breeze and ArcTanGent, while also presenting a select number of headline concerts, including a special open air performance at the iconic Openluchttheater De Goffert amphitheatre in Nijmegen.

To celebrate the release of Tungl, Eivør will present two special album release concerts this October. The first takes place on 17 October at Nordic House in Tórshavn, Faroe Islands, before she returns to Harpa's Eldborg Hall in Reykjavík, Iceland, on 23 October for a unique performance featuring special guest musicians in one of the Nordic region's most iconic concert halls. These intimate events will offer audiences a rare opportunity to experience Tunglperformed in a special setting before Eivør embarks on her extensive international tour.

Eivør will also be undertaking an extensive headline tour across North America later this year, and across Europe and the UK into 2027.

If Eivør’s last album, Enn, marked the beginning of a darker, more atmospheric phase, her forthcoming release, Tungl – the Faroese word for ‘moon’ – and her first for the powerhouse German metal label Nuclear Blast, sees her reach further into elemental realms than ever before. Immersive, unmoored and steeped in a sense of time-stretched drama where familiar marker points give way as an inner compass emerges over its 10 searching tracks, it’s an album also in tune with a very contemporary need for navigation, self-belief and rejuvenation in the most uncertain of times.

As Eivør herself says:

“Tungl explores the ever-changing cycles of life – its songs move between moments of tenderness and heartache, love and loss, and the emotional tides that shape us. Like the moon that inspired its title, Tungl serves as a gentle guide through life’s darker passages, illuminating the beauty, resilience, and transformation found along the way.”

REVEAL COLLABORATIVE TRACK 'SPIRIT HELPER' FEAT. KEVIN KICKING WOMAN ELDER OF THE BLACKFEET NATION

July 2, 2026

Today, Norwegian progressive trailblazers Enslaved are honoured to reveal 'Spirit Helper', a unique and deeply powerful collaboration with Kevin Kicking Woman, an Elder of the Blackfeet Nation.

'Spirit Helper' has arisen partly from a relationship with Fire In The Mountains, which takes place each year within the Blackfeet Nation, Montana. Enslaved will be returning to the festival later this month to perform. Ivar Bjørnson from Enslaved and Kevin Kicking Woman explain the concept behind 'Spirit Helper' and the lengthy process behind it.

Listen to 'Spirit Helper' here: https://enslaved.bfan.link/spirit-helper
Watch the video for 'Spirit Helper' Below:

The 'Spirit Helper' artwork was created by Nicholas Rink, who explains the meaning and symbolism behind it:

"I see the light blue wave at the bottom as a representation of the ocean between us, but also the background vibration of existence connecting us all and giving birth to existence, life, and of course the song itself.

The red line I imagine connecting us across the globe, representing our shared humanity and brother/sisterhood - the living breathing life in us all. The yellow spiral represents the song moving amongst all of these things.

The "Stars" were part of Ivar's original conception and I see them come to represent the power and source of the song. The black circle with the lightning bolt represents Kevin's singing and the spiritual power it carries, and the rainbow of triangles is representative of the musicians.

I wanted to include them symbolically and thought the traditional "triangle man" was a cool way. It took me a bit to decide how I wanted to use it but eventually it came to me to pay homage to Dark side of the Moon by Pink Floyd and included the rainbow colors in a unique way.

All of this is on an old map of Norway that my grandma had saved out of an old National Geographic magazine. I like using maps because LAND is so important in shaping us, our humanity, and how we express ourselves."

Enslaved live in 2026

23-26 Jul 26 US - Montana, Blackfeet Nation @ Fire In The Mountains
18 Sep 26 NO - Sortland @ Sortland Jazzfestival 2026
31 Oct 26 NO - Oslo @ Oslo Spektrum w/ Dimmu Borgir & Satyricon

Tickets available here: Tour - Enslaved

Never faltering, Norway’s iconic Enslaved continue to exist as one of the most original and dependable components in our scene's indestructible backbone. Possessing the reputation as one of the most riveting live acts around, they never fail to offer us talent of the highest calibre, always doing justice to their signature black/progressive sound. Enslaved was formed in 1991 by Ivar Bjørnson and Grutle Kjellson, releasing their first demo Yggdrasill in the summer of 1992, their legendary mini-album Hordanes Land coming out in 1993, and with their debut full-length Vikingligr Veldi arriving in the spring of 1994.

Enslaved are a band in stellar form - a band at its most existentialist and self-conscious, proud Bergeners bearing the torch of their hometown’s extraordinary musical history. Their most recent material shows Enslaved at their most unleashed and thought-through - a lethal combination unfurling a potential that’s easily rekindling the furor of their early works while dancing gracefully through their most ambitious, most haunting and most musical tunes yet. A contradiction? Life itself is a contradiction. And yet we all live to prove it wrong.

Enslaved are:
Ivar Bjørnson | guitars
Grutle Kjellson | vocals
Arve 'Ice Dale' Isdal | guitar
Håkon Vinje | keyboards, clean vocals
Iver Sandøy | drums

ROB ZOMBIE UNLEASHES NEW MUSIC VIDEO FOR "TARANTULA"

June 24, 2026

Rock and metal icon ROB ZOMBIE has released the official music video for ‘Tarantula,’ another standout track from his latest studio album, The Great Satan, available now via Nuclear Blast Records. The video arrives as fans continue to celebrate Zombie's acclaimed eighth solo album, which has earned widespread praise from critics and listeners alike.

A favorite among fans since the album's release, ‘Tarantula’ now gets a fitting visual counterpart. Bathed in stark yellow light and shot with a gritty, stripped-down aesthetic, the performance-focused video captures Zombie and his band tearing through the track with relentless force and precision.

Released earlier this year, The Great Satan marked Zombie's first studio album in five years and featured standout cuts including ‘Punks and Demons,’ ‘Heathen Days,’ ‘(I'm a) Rock 'N' Roller,’ ‘F.T.W. 84,’ ‘The Black Scorpion,’ and ‘Tarantula.’ The record further cemented his status as one of heavy music's most distinctive creative voices, delivering another collection of memorable, larger-than-life anthems.

GREEN LUNG - reveal new track/video 'Necropolitan Line'

June 23, 2026

Albion's masters of folklore, riffs and legends return with another slab of tomb-shaking, crypt-kicking occult rock. Green Lung have revealed their latest track, 'Necropolitan Line', a Motorhead-meets-Deep Purple subterranean rampage across London's infamous Necropolis Railway.

'Necropolitan Line' is taken from Green Lung's forthcoming new record, Necropolitan, due out on Friday September 11th 2026. A monumental portrait of the power of nature over the dreams and dominion of humankind, Necropolitan is also a grand celebration of the occult lore and heavy music scene of the band’s birthplace, the city of London.

Green Lung stated:
"Is there a more fitting subject for a Green Lung song than the Necropolis Railway, a real-life train line that carried corpses and mourners across London in the late 19th Century? Mix in some inspiration from 1972's London Underground-set shocker Death Line, a madcap neoclassical organ/guitar duel that evokes Richie Blackmore and Jon Lord at their finger blistering best, and a record Lung BPM of 180, and you have the second single from our fourth album. We can't wait to play this one live for the first time at the Acid Bath show in Manchester on Thursday. Mind the doors!"

The video, directed by Tracy Mathewson and featuring animation from Joseph Brett, is a tribute to the early 70s German TV show Beat Club, which featured Lung antecedents such as Sabbath, Purple and Lucifer's Friend. Featuring an introduction from longtime roadie Metal Joe, we enter the band's own warped version of the show, titled Crypt Club. Will future episodes follow? Only time will tell...

BEHEMOTH UNLEASH NEW SINGLE & VIDEO 'I, SCVLPTOR'

June 20, 2026

Polish extreme metal legends, BEHEMOTH, unleash 'I, Scvlptor', the first single from their new studio release, I, Scvlptor. The music video was produced by the acclaimed Polish production collective Grupa 13, while the cover artwork and design were created by long-time Behemoth collaborator Bartek Rogalewicz /LODGE.BLACK.

https://behemoth-store.com/en-ea/collections/i-scvlptor

Watch the music video for 'I, Scvlptor' Below:

Nergal commented on the new single:

“'I, Scvlptor' is a new Behemoth song rooted in the tradition of monumental tracks like 'O Father O Satan O Sun!', 'Lucifer' or 'Nieboga Czarny Xiądz', while at the same time opening a new chapter. It carries that epic weight but also takes an unexpected turn that makes it feel fresh and different from the previous pieces. Lyrically, it is a metaphor for the endless process of shaping oneself - an uneven struggle with matter and personal limitations. The paradox is that from the moment we are born we are already destined to die, so perhaps it is not about victory itself, but about the constant act of sculpting who we are”.

'I, Scvlptor', which will be out 04 September 2026, is an exclusive release featuring eight previously unreleased songs - seven new studio recordings and one live track. It is an autonomous body of work that bridges the band's foundational past with their present creative fire. The release features brand-new studio material embodying the full force of Behemoth's live energy and intensity. Two tracks - 'Rise of the Blackstorm of Evil' (from The Return of the Northern Moon, 1992) and 'In Thy Pandemaeternum' (from Pandemonic Incantations, 1998) - are newly re-recorded versions of early Behemoth material, reshaped with modern sonics while preserving their original spirit; a tribute to the bands who had a huge influence on Behemoth - 'In League With Satan' (originally by Venom, feat. Shagrath of Dimmu Borgir) and 'The Return of Darkness and Evil' (originally by Bathory, feat. Sakis Tolis of Rotting Christ). Available on CD, LP, MC and Limited-Edition Box Set through Massacre Records worldwide and digitally via Nuclear Blast Records.

Nergal commented:

“We’re fucking excited about the release of I, Scvlptor. Even though it’s not a regular studio album and is, in fact, more of a compilation, the mere fact that it contains songs nobody has ever heard before makes it a significant release for us. What’s more, some of these tracks are likely a little different from what we offered on our last album, The Shit Ov God. That’s why we see I,Scvlptor as an important record — a connecting piece, a bridge between where we are now and whatever may come next in the distant future.”

In October 2026, two of the most influential forces in extreme metal join together for a monumental tour: Behemoth and Dimmu Borgir will embark on the “In League with Satan” co-headline tour (with special guests, Dark Funeral), storming across Europe and the UK. Details below:

KHEMMIS RELEASE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED SELF-TITLED ALBUM

June 14, 2026

Denver's long-revered torchbearers of doom KHEMMIS have officially released their highly anticipated new self-titled album today via Nuclear Blast Records. Marking the band's first studio album since 2021's acclaimed Deceiver, Khemmis stands as a powerful reaffirmation of the band's singular identity, blending towering riffs, haunting melodies, triumphant heavy metal heroism, and crushing emotional weight into one of the most compelling records of their career.

Stream/Purchase Khemmis: https://khemmis.bfan.link/khemmis-album

To celebrate today's release, the band has also unveiled a new music video directed by Alex Pace for the album standout ‘Gilded Chambers.’

Speaking on the track, vocalist and guitarist Phil Pendergast comments:

"If your aim is to write an album full of rippers, at least one has to kick off with a time honored Heavy Metal tradition -- the drum intro -- and resolve around a sing-along chorus. 'Gilded Chambers' is that track. The accompanying video comes from the track's live premiere in Denver, proving that motorcycle-ready riffs, psychedelia-tinged bridges, and death metal breakdowns make this one kill live. Check it out, then join us in the pit this summer. Horns up!"

‘GILDED CHAMBERS’ MUSIC VIDEO:

Khemmis—the follow-up to 2021’s acclaimed Deceiver—features eight tracks of unrelenting, monolithic heavy metal adorned by stunning artwork from Christopher Remmers. More than just another chapter, the record represents the band in their truest form: a celebration of heavy music, forged through camaraderie, conviction, and an enduring love of the riff.

Across eleven years, KHEMMIS have become one of modern metal’s most revered names, beginning with their 2015 debut Absolution and continuing through landmark releases like Hunted—named Decibel’s Album Of The Year—Desolation, and Deceiver. But while the band’s legacy is firmly established, Khemmis finds them energized by something more immediate: the joy of simply playing loud, heavy music together.

As Hutcherson explains:

“We decided early in the songwriting process that we wanted to write a tight, high-energy album that retained the essential ‘Khemmis sound’ while also embodying the joy of creating, experiencing, and loving heavy metal. Ours have always been deeply personal songs born from tragedy and sorrow; while the songs on Khemmis are still undeniably dark, they are not mined from our suffering. Instead, this record is a celebration of the music world that has sustained us.”

KHEMMIS will embark on a headlining tour this month with support from NECROFIER and WRETCHED, followed by an excursion with MONOLORD soon after. Tickets and additional tour information are available at khemmisdoom.com/live.

Yet as they approach their fifth full-length, the band found something newly vital: the simple joy of creating heavy music together. Formed with no expectations, the group’s longevity has become its foundation, with guitarist/vocalist Ben Hutcherson describing the band as a rare source of stability and camaraderie. Since their 2015 debut Absolution, followed by the acclaimed Hunted, Desolation, Doomed Heavy Metal MLP, and Deceiver, Khemmis have built a legacy of towering, spiritual doom that continues to resonate with fans worldwide.

Despite changes—including members relocating and bassist David Small joining in 2022—the band emerged more focused than ever. Recording again at Flatline Audio in Colorado, the lineup of Hutcherson, Phil Pendergast, Zach Coleman, and Small leaned into renewed trust and chemistry, with distance paradoxically strengthening their bond. The addition of Small invigorated the rhythm section and encouraged experimentation, while the band rediscovered the excitement that defined their early days. That renewed energy fueled a collaborative atmosphere rooted in confidence, inspiration, and the shared thrill of simply playing heavy metal.

The resulting self-titled album is both a celebration and reinvention: a conceptually framed ritual of heavy metal that moves from the pounding “Invocation of the Dreamer” to the climactic “Benediction Tones,” balancing galloping aggression with emotionally resonant anthems. The record embraces extremity, catharsis, and joy in equal measure, complemented by new visual direction from artist Christopher Remmers. Through lineup changes, distance, and a shifting world, Khemmis remain unshaken—leaning into the music that defines them. Their self-titled album arrives June 12th, 2026 via Nuclear Blast, capturing the band in their truest and most energized form.

North Carolina progressive alt-metal outfit STELLAR CIRCUITS have unveiled their latest single, ‘Wounded Healer,’ available now via Nuclear Blast Records.

Continuing the creative momentum established by their acclaimed album Phantom :: Phoenix and recent standalone single ‘Spotlight,’ ‘Wounded Healer’ fuses crushing heaviness with melodic and dissonant tension, mirroring the struggle between decay and redemption. Driven by themes of inner sickness and fragile transformation, it confronts the breaking point—where healing and destruction collide, and survival demands you make your move before you dissolve away.

GRAVEYARD - Announce Brand New Album "Fever" To Be Released On October 9th

June 2, 2026

One of the most distinctive and revered forces in rock music, Sweden’s GRAVEYARD have announced October 9th, 2026 as the release date for their highly anticipated seventh studio album, Fever. Three years after the dreamlike haze of much-lauded previous record Six, the band return with a heavier, more direct sound — while still carrying the blues-soaked soul that defined their breakthrough album Hisingen Blues.

GRAVEYARD commented:
“Alright folks. Here it is — album number 7.
Fever. Haven’t we always had it?
The itch, the burn and the restlessness.
The urge to push forward into the fog. Even with the teeth of hopelessness snapping at our asses and all the smoke and mirrors of our time telling us we got no future.
Come what may. Let’s go!

This time around, we decided to waste no time. No outside producer. No detours.
Just GRAVEYARD, straight to the point, doing what we do best.
This just might be our greatest album so far!
Hope you like it, too.”

The striking artwork for Fever was created by acclaimed Dutch artist Maarten Donders, whose powerful and expressive visual style has been showcased at the renowned cult festival Roadburn. Over the years, Donders has created artwork for more than 50 artists, ranging from Acid King to Frank Zappa.

Handling mixing duties is Pelle Gunnerfeldt, celebrated for capturing the raw intensity of bands such as The Hives and Refused, while more recently working with Viagra Boys.

Furthermore,GRAVEYARD have confirmed the first leg of their 2026 / 2027 tour with BLUES PILLS. Scroll down for all confirmed shows. Stay tuned for more European dates to be announced!
