After this passionate display of love for the music and the community, there must be a second round of Metal United World Wide in 2019.

For those who would like to catch up on the shows they missed, we have compiled a youtube playlist with recorded live streams or videos from a range of countries. On our Facebook page, we shared a large number of videos, photos and reviews. Finally, the lists of shows, participating bands and partners can be found on our website www.metal-united-world-wide.com

The Metal United World Wide team will start with preparations for the next round soon. If you want to be part as a organiser, media partner or supporter - let us know. Don't forget, it's a community project and everybody can participate and contribute.

On 27th of April in Beirut, Lebanese metal act Phenomy, alongside three other bands, took the challenge to battle for a slot in the worldwide final of the Metal Battle at the Wacken Festival 2018 (August 2nd-4th). Phenomy gained the first place in the battle! Congratulations, Guys!

Stated the band:

     "It is an honour for us to represent our country in one of the biggest metal festivals in the world, Wacken Open Air. We are happy that the hard work is paying off and we are thankful for everything we are being able to do. Going through a hell of a journey climbing the ladder step by step and we are proud of what we have accomplished so far. To all those who believe in Phenomy, thank you so much for being a part of our family!"


Govad Music (the responsible promoter for the W:O:A Metal Battle in Middle East) wrote about Phenomy:

     "Approaching the metal scene with a solid ground, a clear vision, and a steady aim; Influenced by Thrash metal and their love for melodies, they set out to define a sound of their own, away from the common labels and flavours of the genre."

Lebanese metal band Phenomy was formed by Loïc El Haddad and Rudy Bejjani in 2014. The band’s sound is a mixture of Thrash / Groove metal with Melodies, breakdowns and tribal / ethnic rhythms. Only three month after its formation, Phenomy performed in several local gigs and in the Persian Metal and Rock Festival in Cannakale / Troya city in Turkey alongside big names like Orphaned Land. Later on, Phenomy released their debut album “Once And For All” and received good feedbacks from magazines and webzines, before signing a distribution deal with Via Nocturna in 2017. In Summer 2017 Phenomy toured with Repay in the eastern European countries (Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria). Furthermore the band supported Grave in Lebanon in October 2017. The band released their second album “Threaten World Order” on March 2018.

Lelahell releases the new official video 'Paramnesia', the first track from the upcoming album named Alif.

The new album was recorded at Fermata Studio (Algiers), mixed and mastered at the famous Hertz Recording Studio (Biylystock, Poland) by Slawek and Wojtek Wieslawski (Behemoth, Vader, Decapitated, Hate). Each Lelahell album is conceptually linked to the main character of Abderrahmane. This new album is focusing on his first steps in his new life.

Alif contains ten tracks of very intensive death metal, sharp riffs with an Algerian folklore accent, all combined with fast blast beats and technical rhythms.

We would be very grateful to you for sharing, playing this video via your website or other ways if possible.

Greece's Null'o'zero unveils 'Instructions To Dominate' album details

26/5/2018

Greek heavy metal band, Null'o'zero, have announced the release of their new album 'Instructions To Dominate' on July 13, via ROAR! Rock Of Angles Records. 'Instructions To Dominate' is the 2nd Official album by Null'o'zero, an album that was written in a very difficult period for the band. This is the reason why the album is so aggressive and driven by emotion - anger, grief, pain, frustration - but it also gives hope to take courage to stand with our heads held high.

It's a natural evolution of the first album 'The Enemy Within', preserving the band’s unique character. Solid rhythm section, diverse riffs, outrageous solos and imposing vocals blend to an intriguing balance between melody and aggression.

Picture
1. Instructions To Dominate
2. The Last One
3. My Last Disguise
4. Imprisoned In The Dark
5. Decline The Legacy
6. Face Down The World
7. Better Off Dead
8. Until The End Of Life
9. Trapped In A Maze
10. Hate


The album was engineerd, produced by Null'o'zero & Thimios Krikos (InnerWish, ex-Deviner), mixed by Thimios Krikos (InnerWish, ex-Deviner) & Nikos Iosifidis, engineerd by Fotis Benardo (SixforNine, ex-Septic Flesh), additional engineering by Nikos 'HULK' Iosifidis & Akis Pastras and mastered by Peter In de Betou at Tailor Made Production Sweden (Arch Enemy, Dark Tranquillity, Dimmu Borgir, Dream Evil, Firewind, Havok). The album artwork was made by Giannis Nakos - Remedy Art Design.

Guest Appearances by Thimios Krikos (Last Solo 'Until the end of life') and George Georgiou (Piano 'Until the end of life').

Null'o'zero was formed in 2012 in Athens/Greece. The general idea was to play contemporary aggressive music but also with technical and melodical riffs, main influences are Megadeth, Death, Symphony X, Metallica, etc.

Irish Modern Metal act Words That Burn are proud to unleash their new single and official video "When We're Forgotten". "When We're Forgotten" single has been produced by Josh Robinson in JSR Studios, Belfast and mastered by Alan Douches in West West Side Studios, New York.

The band stated:

     "WTB are super excited to share our video for When We’re Forgotten with you. It is our first time working with Carl Quinn and the rest of the guys in Empty Horoscope Media. He is by far one of the most professional, dedicated and easy to work with people we have dealt with. Even though this was his baby he kept us in the loop throughout the entire process. From initial concept, we knew that this video a big task  - The production was huge, there was a lot of people involved, multiple locations, pyro & special effects -  so we are absolutely stoked with the end result.  

     This song is a snap shot of the new direction that we are taking as a band so we wanted to come out guns blazing. We wanted something visually striking to compliment the song. I think we got that!"

Welcome Okkultist! Portuguese Death Metal, straight to the point and vicious as if summoned from the depths of abysses and the ugly layers of Hell. Inspired by the likes of Master / Abomination, early Morbid Angel, Death and Dismember, Okkultist picks up where impure Nineties Death Metal left and are ready to unleash upon you their debut album “Reinventing Evil“, that will soon be released worldwide by Fernando Ribeiro’s (Moonspell) new record label Alma Mater Records!

Okkultist formed back in late 2015. They started playing live and spreading their raw notion of evil Death Metal on October 15th 2016. In 2017 “Eye Of The Beholder”, the band’s debut EP was unleashed independently, but caught up and spread around Europe and overseas – selling out every single printed copy.

Even at this early stage, Okkultist already had the honour to curse stages such as at Mosher Fest or Female Growler United Front in Portugal and as an opening act for legendary names such as Entombed AD.

They now became the very first band to sign with Alma Mater Records, Moonspell’s singer Fernando Ribeiro record label, committed to showcase all around the world, with the promo partnership of All Noir and Rastilho, conjured in Portugal, Metal from the Navigator’s land. Stay tuned on the infernal vibes of this deadly raw and PURE FVCKING EVIL Portuguese talent!
