Doffe Ekberg (lead singer) comments on the single:

"It was the last song to be recorded for the album, we had another one in mind but I had a very simple version of The Searcher demoed on my phone. We learned it and recorded it in a couple of hours. It felt amazing, a magic moment for sure."

BLACK WAIL Announce 'Born on Fire' EP - Out April 23

March 28, 2021

New Jersey rock quintet BLACK WAIL is primed to release their latest studio offering. The band has announced their new EP, 'Born on Fire', which will see an April 23, 2021release via Rhyme & Reason. The new EP is the band's fourth studio effort since forming in 2014, and is preceded by their late-2017 offering 'Chromium Homes'. Fans eager to get a taste of the upcoming record can check out the lead single, "See Conspiracy", which is out now on digital and streaming platforms found here: https://orcd.co/seeconspiracy.

Speaking on the new single, the band offers a direct and to-the-point summation, stating: "'See Conspiracy' is a song about people who believe crazy conspiracy theories and wind up doing crazy things because of it."

While New Jersey quintet Black Wail’s latest EP, 'Born on Fire' (Rhyme & Reason), isn’t a concept record, there are some threads running between its songs that you’d be forgiven for thinking were a direct response to the past year. The lead single, “See Conspiracy” was written before the Qanon movement reached mass acceptance, and long before its believers wound up in Congress. Singer/guitarist Michael Tarlazzi points back to the election of our last President as the genesis. “When he got elected, I was dumbfounded that that could even possibly happen,” he says. “I thought it was a joke, because I figured everyone knew that the guy was a clown. Then he’s spouting all these theories about ‘fake news’ and that there’s a liberal plot to get everybody. Meanwhile, there are real-life events happening, like school shootings with assault rifles that kids easily got because they’re so easily available in America and any attempt at regulation becomes ‘they’re taking our guns away.'”

Black Wail formed in Jersey City in early 2014 when Tarlazzi, then best known as a drummer or guitarist, decided to front his own band to draw on his influences of metal, punk, psych, stoner, and classic rock; playing guitar as well as handling vocals for the first time. After recruiting Susan Lutin on bass and Bram Teitelman on keys, the lineup solidified with the addition of guitarist Ed Charreun and drummer Felipe Torres, who also play in the sludge/noise trio Twin God. Born on Fire, the quintet’s fourth EP, follows 2017’s Chromium Homes, and was recorded by Grammy-winning producer John Seymour (Bouncing Souls), who co-produced the EP with the band.

BLACK WAIL is:

Michael Tarlazzi - Guitar, Vocals

Susan Lutin - Bass

Ed Charreun - Guitar

Felipe Torres - Drums

Bram Teitelman - Keys

Repentance delivers a very brutal yet modern sound in these dark times that almost paints a soundtrack of our world. "God For A Day"

Metal band Repentance has released their new single "God For A Day" off of their debut album also titled God For A Day due out September 25th via Art is War Records/Intercept Music.

Repentance came together in 2018 when Shaun Glass, a veteran guitarist of Broken Hope and Dirge Within, recruited Mike Sylvester on bass and began songwriting with lead guitarist Markus Johansson of the group Them. Robb Rivera of Nonpoint introduced Stuck Mojo front-man Robby J. Fonts and from there... Repentance was born.

“It came together very naturally, which was a very cleansing experience,” states Glass. “At this point in my life, I was hoping to start working and creating new music with an almost entirely new group of people and this crew organically locked into place.”

“It’s crazy how things happen,” comments Fonts. “I was looking to start a new band since Rich [Ward] and Frank [Fontsere] are currently busy outside of Stuck Mojo [touring with FOZZY], so the timing for Repentance came perfectly. One phone call later, we were stoked to get this show on the road. Shaun sent me demos, I wrote lyrics and vocals and our songs started coming
together quickly.”

The band made their live stage debut by opening up for Trivium. Within their short time
together the band would go on to share the stage with Devildriver, Jinjer, Skull Fist, Toxic Holocaust and Sacred Reich.

In October 2018 the band released their debut single, “Enter the Gallows" and by the end of the year, Kanky Lora, of Soulfly and Straight Line Stitch fame, would join the band on drums, thus solidifying this powerhouse line-up.

“The band’s sound is definitely very aggressive, pummeling metal and we can’t wait to share some music with everyone soon,” adds Glass. “Everyone is bringing their own style to the table and the uniqueness of each is helping to shape our sound. We’re creating a style that we enjoy ourselves first and foremost.”

In 2019, the band signed with Art is War Records and released the single, “Only the Damned Die Young” which was recorded at Electroworks Recording with Chuck Macack (Born of Osiris / Oceano) as well as mixed and mastered by engineer Chris Collier (Prong / Whitesnake).

“You know you’re onto something special when everyone connects instantly and the creativity keeps on flowing,” says Fonts. “I think fans of our previous work will be in for a pleasant surprise.”

Bringing the best of classic American thrash with elements of European-styled melodic death metal and a tinge of modern hardcore. This eclectic group of seasoned musicians is providing a straight punch to the face for your metal fix with their unrelenting brutality of Midwestern American metal.

Leaving no room for nonsense, the band brings forth their exhilarating brand of heaviness led by visceral guitar riffs and hard-hitting attitude, which is sure to obliterate fans of extreme music everywhere.

When talking about the bands debut album they said "We think we really captured true ENERGY!! The songs fly by but are so aggressive and energetic that We hope it makes the listener crave repeat playbacks."
