Sepulchral Productions have set October 15th as the international release date for Ossuaire's highly anticipated second album, Derniers Chants. A mere six months after the release of their first, widely acclaimed album through Sepulchral Productions, Ossuaire is already back at it, with the stunning conclusion to their two-album concept on the downfall of Christianity. Derniers Chants features the characteristic vengeful-yet-melodic riffing that has helped the band quickly rise among the well-established Québec scene while also developing a more epic side, such as on the spectacular album closer. Another must for fans of the Québec black metal scene! First track premiere to be revealed shortly. Pre-order for the album can be found HERE.

Thrash Till Death https://stridentthrash.bandcamp.com www.punishment18records.com www.facebook.com/punishment18records Montreal’s premier blackened death metallers Necronomicon are back with "Unus", the crushing and cinematic follow up to 2016’s "Advent of the Human God". With each record Necronomicon has created in the span of their 31-year career, the band has steadily evolved in both sound and power; ‘Uunus’ is no exception to this. The latest single 'Singularis Dominus' is ready to be unleashed and can be heard HERE. Rob The Witch adds: "For thousands of years, mankind has been believing in a murderous and treacherous false God that has done nothing because they doe not exist. I'm flabergasted that in 2019 some people still believe in this insanity. It is time for humans to become their own masters and reclaim their souls for their own." The track follows the band's earlier released first single 'Paradise Lost' available to listen here. 'Unus' is a searing cacophony of blistering riffs, machine-like drums, and a symphonic ambiance, culminating in a sound that calls to various metal icons such as DIMMU BORGIR, SEPTICFLESH, BEHEMOTH, and DEICIDE. The record combines the furious elements of death metal with the orchestral prowess of black metal, creating the perfect synthesis of both genres. Standout tracks like 'Paradise Lost' and 'Singularis Dominus' only solidify NECRONOMICON’s ability to continuously produce high-quality metal that’s just as dark and brutal as it is elegant. 'Unus is due on October 18 via Season of Mist and can be pre-ordered here.

About the EP Alla Bulgakova (Bagira’s vocalist) says:- “We live in Russia, we play our music in Russia, we love our Russian listeners. But we wanna say powerful 'Hello World!' with our new EP. It’s my desperate hymn. I took the piece of my soul and put it into these two songs. So... That’s what we do here, in Russia, and I hope - you’ll enjoy it”. Listen "From Russia With Groove" on Spotify Buy "From Russia With Groove" on iTunes Bagira is a Russian groove metal band from Kazan, Tatarstan, formed in 2011 by Alla Bulgakova and Alexander Shadrov. Bagira’s current line-up consists of vocalist Alla Bulgakova, guitarists Alexandr Shadrov and Gleb Vodennikov, bassist Rival Zakirov and drummer Bulat Sadreev. The band was originally played songs like classic heavy metal with melodic vocals parts, but over the time Bagira’s music has progressed and has become more extreme with clean and extreme vocal elements. Bagira has released 3 full-length albums, several singles and many bootlegs (cover versions on some popular Russian - and English-language songs, demos from studio). Their third studio album "Scars" was released on February 7th, 2017 by Fono Ltd. In 2018, Bagira recorded three singles in their own studio by Alexandr Shadrov’s production, mixing and mastering. Although the Russian-language releases didn’t land on any charts, it attracted the interest of non-Russian listeners. After that Bagira was re-recording two of their songs, "Whisper" (previously released in 2015) and "Shadow" (previously released in 2018), with new sound and with English-language lyrics. It was called as “From Russia With Groove”. FACEBOOK | WEB Indian Progressive / Experimental Metal band Dymbur have released their first single 'Capital Vices' on behalf of their new album ‘The Legend of Thraat’. The guitarist, Cornelius adds:- “Dymbur are excited to announce the release of their first single & music video ‘Capital Vices’ from their upcoming concept debut-album.” He adds:- “This song speaks about the greatest sins of mankind i.e. The Seven Deadly Sins - Lust, Envy, Gluttony, Wrath, Vanity, Greed and Sloth. As much as metal prefers to be about condemning the wicked ways of the world and often, being introspective of our worse fears, there is also a lesson about human nature and its negativity. This is something that we want to tell you about through this new song.” This song has been recorded by Cornelius Kharsyntiew, at Legato Recording Studios in Shillong and mixed and mastered by Brandon Scurlark at Eltar Studios in North Carolina (USA). The Music Video of the same was shot & edited by Embor Sayo of Fishy Photography, Shillong. 'The Legend of Thraat' release date to be announced soon!

Testament‘s Bassist Steve Di Giorgio – have released a new video for the song "Empire Of Loss", watch it here: https://youtu.be/6sU7nNV1lq8 Furthermore, Gone In April's new album, 'Shards Of Light', is now released. Stated the band: "Double release day! In addition to our new album, Shards of Light, we are stocked to release our new music video, Empire of Loss! While hunting for the perfect venue where to film our next video, we found a gorgeous church in ruins in Detroit. The holes in the ceiling somehow made us think of how the human memory sometimes looses pieces too. Amidst the desolation, shards of light were entering the church. Amidst the destruction, there was still light to be found." Get more information on Gone In April at https://www.facebook.com/GoneinApril Fate Destroyed, the Los Angeles-based band fronted by Franccesca De Struct, unveils a haunting new video for their cover of the classic "In the Pines" today via Metal Injection. Watch the video here: https://metalinjection.net/video/fate-destroyed-rocks-this-awesome-lead-belly-blues-cover-for-in-the-pines-and-makes-it-heavy "In the Pines," also known as "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?" and "My Girl," is a traditional folk song made famous by legendary blues artist Lead Belly and later achieved commercial success through Nirvana's take on the track. "I saw 'In the Pines' as the ultimate musical challenge," De Struct says. "Was it possible to take a widely known folk song, something completely the antithesis of my genre, and make it industrial? The answer was a resounding yes. This passion project came from a place of musical discovery. It gave me the chance to take a base concept and see just how much I could mould it into something entirely new." Fate Destroyed was formed by De Struct in 2016 with an aim to provide a fierce new take on the metal status quo. Led by the raw emotion of De Struct's vocals, Fate Destroyed combines visceral guitars and driving synths to leverage the gap between hard hitting '90s industrial and modern heavy metal. Fate Destroyed is rounded out by Roger Bohlen on guitar, Nathan YoungBlood (Green Jelly/Dirty Machine) on bass and Ben Levi (Matriarchs) on drums. www.fiveringsproductions.com/fate-destroyed www.facebook.com/FateDeStroyed/ www.fatedestroyed.com/ www.reverbnation.com/fatedestroyed Chile's premier thrash band Ripper have launched the exclusive premiere of the title track from their forthcoming new EP, Sensory Stagnation. The stream is online now at No Clean Singing, who had this to say about the track: “It keeps things fierce and fast. Imagine early Kreator being covered by Watchtower and you might be honing in on the Ripper sound. And while the promo material name-checks Atheist, it is just as appropriate to mention Sadus, who also constructed technical Death Thrash, and at least on Swallowed in Black, they stood with the best of them. And while Sadus had Steve Digorgio on bass, Ripper has its own bass virtuoso in the form of Pablo Cortés, whose awe-inspiring lines are a constant throughout this release.” Check out "Sensory Stagnation" at this location. Sensory Stagnation is coming September 30th on CD, cassette and digital platforms from Unspeakable Axe Records, with a vinyl release to follow from Dark Descent Records. The high-speed thrashing and intricate riffs are still there, as well as the philosophical lyrics and incomprehensibly good bass work. But the band has leaned a little further into their progressive influences, with a more pronounced presence of Atheist riding shotgun with their usual Teutonic and South American thrash forerunners. The result is an outing that feels rich despite a run time of roughly 20 minutes, loaded with some of the band's best playing and most fascinating ideas to date RIPPER is: Nicolás Villanueva - Drums Venus Torment - Guitar /Vocals Pablo Cortés - Bass Daniel Poblete - Guitars facebook.com/ripperchileoficial ripperdeathrashchile.bandcamp.com unspeakableaxerecords.com facebook.com/UnspeakableAxeRecords unspeakableaxerecords.bandcamp.com Montreal, Canada-based speed metal trio, Warsenal, has joined forces with Svart Records for the release of their Feast Your Eyes full-length. Slated for worldwide release November 15th, the anticipated follow-up to 2015's debut Barn Burner boasts the band's most forward-thinking assortment of speed / thrash metal hymns to date and is sure to snap the necks of younger fans, alongside worshippers of the old school à la Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, and Anthrax. Comments Warsenal guitarist/vocalist Mathieu Rondeau:- "We're really excited to be signing with Finnish label Svart Records. They have a great international visibility and are very well respected among musicians and fans alike. This makes us very honoured to be taking over the world of metal under their flag. I think that with Feast Your Eyes, we've really grasped what is the 'Warsenal sound' and how we want to go from there. It's still raw and filled to the brim with crazy riffs flying everywhere, but the production quality and the song structures have really taken on major improvement; call it maturity I guess. The songs are all very different and unique, while keeping the Warsenal energy and the madness people dug on the first album. A lot of surprises and jaw-dropping is to be expected. It's definitely not your typical, generic thrash or speed metal album." Further details on Feast Your Eyes, including track teasers and pre-orders will be unveiled in the weeks to come. Warsenal released a three-song demo in 2012 and immediately started performing live that same year. The demo quickly grasped the attention of a Japanese festival organizer who invited the band to perform on True Thrash Fest in February 2013 alongside the likes of legends Exciter, Violator, and Sabbat. The band gained further notoriety upon their return home where they played shows incessantly throughout Canada. Since the release of their 2015 debut Barn Burner, Warsenal has remained an active live act having toured the US, Canada, and Mexico and appearing at various metal fests including Full Terror Assault with Overkill, Venom Inc., Crowbar, Goatwhore, Toxic Holocaust, and more. Stay tuned for further Warsenal live invasions to be announced soon.

The track hails from the band's highly anticipated third album, Blood and Wine, set for international release on September 27th via Svart Records. Hear Goatess' "What Lies Beneath" in its entirety exclusively HERE. Goatess summon the frenzy and religious ecstasy of a Bacchus cult with the aptly titled Blood and Wine. Riffs of biblical, Cecil B. DeMille magnitude part the Red Sea and chariot their way across the dunes like a relentless raging Roman legion. Expert songwriting by modern veterans of the scene, Sweden’s Goatess take the traditional doom metal foundations of Saint Vitus, Trouble, and early Cathedral out to the desert and mould it into a set of arid, hypnotic stoner grooves. Bringing to mind modern classics of desert rock like the catchier moments of Kyuss’ Sky Valley and Corrosion Of Conformity’s Blind albums, Blood and Wine is a thirst-quenching refreshment in a parched dust bowl. The revitalized line-up of Kenta Karlbom (drums) and Niklas Jones (guitar) with new initiates Karl Buhre (vocals) and Samuel Cornelsen (bass) have struck a mother lode of gold with their rich doom pedigree and a newfound lifeblood in their chemistry. Having already tread the hallowed boards of sonic temples all over Europe several times, Blood and Wine will see the Goatess cult of doom enthusiasts drawn in anew and the Bacchanalia cult swelling in their hooded numbers. Nine doses of intoxicating mesmerism that showcase seasoned and masterful command of doom-craft, this album marks Goatess finding a stride in their cloven hooves. Captivating and subtly epic songs steam roll a slow descent into the underworld deserts of your mind, providing a suitable companion to nights of group debauchery or solo excursions to the soul’s outer limits. Giving in to the Bacchanalia at the heart of this record induces a mythical orgy of sonic Sabbathian riff-worship that’s impossible to deny. Once you pop the cork on this barrel-fermented vintage cask, you will enjoy and savour every heavy gulp until the very last drop.
