 True avant-garde Norwegians Enslaved have announced the release of their epic new studio album for October 13th 2017. This 14th full-length masterpiece sets the musical mind-twisters free from genre boundaries and offers an unprecedented mix of prog, extreme metal and shoegaze on 8 tracks with a playing time of more than an hour. Elegantly titled ‘E’, the album was once again written by the unholy alliance of guitarist Ivar Bjørnson (music, lyrics) and singer/bassist Grutle Kjellson (lyrics) and marks the introduction of their new keyboard master and clean vocalist Håkon Vinje. Mixed and mastered at the Fascination Street Studios by the renowned Jens Bogren, ‘E’ heralds a new era for Enslaved. Its cover artwork was once again hand-painted by the Norwegian artist Truls Espedal. As support for their brave sound journey, the quintet brought several guest musicians on board for the songs 'Hiindsiight' and 'Feathers Of Eolh', including Warduna's Einar Kvitrafn Selvik, flutist Daniel Mage and jazz saxophonist Kjetil Møster.

Satyricon unveils track-list for new album 'Deep calleth upon Deep'; now available for pre-order4/8/2017  Nearly three years in the making, black metal legends Satyricon have revealed their highly anticipated ninth studio album, 'Deep calleth upon Deep' is set for release on 22nd September via Napalm Records. The opus will be available in digital format, CD digipak and gatefold vinyl options and is now available for pre-order HERE! The band recently unveiled initial album details and the album’s artwork, an obscure drawing from 1898 by perhaps the greatest Norwegian artist of all time, Edvard Munch.
Recorded in Oslo, Norway and Vancouver, Canada, during early 2017 and mixed together with revered studio guru Mike Fraser (who previously worked on Satyricon’s 2006 album, ‘Now, Diabolical’), ‘Deep calleth upon Deep’ is not just a new collection of songs from one of extreme music’s most enduring and reliable bands: this is a wholesale reinvention and a brand new era in Satyricon history. Says frontman and visionary Satyr: “Approaching this release, what I always kept in mind is that either this is the beginning of something new or it’s gonna be my last record. If this is going to be the last, then it needs to be something special. If there are more records, then I’d better make sure that this is so different from the last one that it feels like a new beginning. I think it’s really, really dark, very spiritual and filled with confidence and energy.” 'Deep calleth upon Deep' is a profound statement about the essence of Satyricon’s music and the eternal value of art itself. Satyr continues, “The way that I see it is that for any art, be it Satyricon or any other form of art with substance, in order for you to be able to inhale and completely understand it, it will take a little bit of you as well. If you get it all after a couple of listens, you know that it probably won’t stay with you. So the title is saying, ‘From the depth of the people making this record to the depth of the listener…’ If you want to take part in this journey, you should be prepared to dig deep down in the darkest corner of your soul with us." Satyricon have always excelled as a live band, their evocative performances increasingly becoming special events as their frequency is dialled back to accommodate the Oslo band’s new ‘modus operandi’. In support of 'Deep calleth upon Deep' the band is set to tour on the following dates: 24.09.17 DE - Hamburg / Grünspan 25.09.17 DE - Essen / Turock 26.09.17 NL - Tilburg - 013 27.09.17 BE - Vosselaar / Biebob 29.09.17 UK - London / Heaven 30.09.17 FR - Paris / La Maroquinerie 01.10.17 FR - Nantes - MJC De Reze 02.10.17 FR - Toulouse / Le Metronum 04.10.17 ES - Madrid / Sala But 05.10.17 ES - Barcelona / Razzamatazz 06.10.17 FR – Montpellier / Rockstore 07.10.17 IT - Bologna / Zona Roveri 09.10.17 CH - Zurich / Dynamo 10.10.17 DE - Munich / Backstage Halle 11.10.17 AT - Vienna / Szene 12.10.17 CZ - Prague / Akropolis 14.10.17 PL - Krakow / Kwadrat 15.10.17 PL - Warsaw / Progresja 16.10.17 DE - Berlin / SO36 17.10.17 DK - Copenhagen / Pumpehuset 19.10.17 DK - Aarhus / Train 20.10.17 SE - Gotherburg / Pustervik 21.10.17 SE - Stockholm / Klubben 31.10.17 MX - Guadalajara / C3 Stage 01.11.17 MX - Mexico City / Circo Volador 02.11.17 CR - San Jose / Pepper’s Club 07.11.17 CL - Santiago / Blondie 08.11.17 AR - Buenos Aires / Uniclub 10.11.17 BR - Belo Horizonte / Stonehenge 11.11.17 BR - Sao Paulo / Clash Club 12.11.17 BR - Rio De Janeiro / Teatro Oddiseia 22.11.17 NO - Molde / Gamle Kulturset 23.11.17 NO - Trondheim / Byscenen 24.11.17 NO - Oslo / Sentrum Scene 25.11.17 NO - Tromso / Driv 29.11.17 NO - Bergen / Hulen 30.11.17 NO - Stavanger / Folken 01.12.17 NO - Kristiansand / Kick 02.12.17 NO - Hamar / Gregers www.satyricon.no www.facebook.com/satyriconofficial www.napalmrecords.com www.facebook.com/napalmrecords  Iberian Extreme Metal act Noctem just released "A Cruce Salus".

Check out the tour dates below. Ancient Frontman Zel stated: "We are very excited and proud to announce the Ancient tour in Latin America in September. This has in many ways been a dream come true for us, to finally tour this corner of the world. The tour that took place in 2007 was not with a full band line-up and I was not even there myself, but this time we will bring the most powerful and energetic line up Ancient has ever had, with Mr. Nick Barker himself on the drums!! A lot of fans from countries like Honduras, Puerto Rico, Bolivia, Venezuela and especially Brazil, have been writing to us asking why we will not visit these places during the tour. The thing is, that it does not depend on the band, we would play in every single country if we had the chance. These decisions are always made by the booking agency and the local promoters in each country. Sometimes the expenses (especially with travelling) are simply too high to make it happen, but we will do our best to return again with an even bigger tour next time !!! Let's keep the Ancient spirit alive !!"

You can view the stunning cover artwork by Artūrs Bērziņš below. Bērziņš is the mastermind behind the new record’s artwork, photography and videography – best known for his defiant neo-symbolism raster graphics and oil paintings; postmodern interpretations of classic myths. He has been proclaimed as a “sacred monster of Latvian postmodernism”. Commented the infamous Dani Filth: "The album is deeply infused with Victorian gothic horror and thus the title is a reflection of that. 'Cryptoriana' implies the Victorian's infatuation with the supernatural, the grave and the ghoulish. And the subtitle 'The Seductiveness Of Decay' further cements this attraction to death and the glittering lengthy process of self-annihilation." The first single off ‘Cryptoriana - The Seductiveness Of Decay’ will be released on July 5th, the same day that the album pre-order will become available.  ‘Cryptoriana - The Seductiveness Of Decay’ was recorded at Grindstone Studios, Suffolk, UK by the very honourable Scott Atkins, esq. who has been the resident go-to producer for Cradle Of Filth for several albums. Dani sat in during the mix, serving up flaming mugs of teas, making the studio couch his own and lending his ears when necessary.  The band have also announced their first full scale UK and Ireland tour in years, starting in Belfast, Northern Ireland on 30th October. Added Dani Filth: "We, as a band, are incredibly excited about hitting the UK and Ireland for a full run of dates around All Hallows Eve, as playing the band's home country is always great fun and the audiences here are very receptive. And nuts. The dates will be the first in a long line of shows that will extend throughout the rest of the World throughout 2018. We aim to be very prolific on the live front, delivering a show worthy of our fan’s exalted expectations and more" CRADLE OF FILTH UK & IRELAND TOUR: 30.10. Belfast - Limelight 31.10.
