Dodecahedron are streaming the first track taken from their forthcoming album 'kwintessens', which has been scheduled for release March 17th. The song "Hexahedron - Tilling The Human Soil" is now exclusively streaming via the official media partners below. Metal Obsession (AU) Spark (CZ) Metal Hammer (DE) Friedhof Magazine (ES) Kaaoszine (FI) Radio Metal (FR) Rocking (GR) Lángoló Gitárok (HU) Hardkjarni (IS) Rock Hard (IT) Zware Metalen (NL) Kvlt (PL) Ultraje (PT) Metalfan (RO) Crank It Up (SE) Antichrist (UA) Terrorizer (UK) Regarding their sophomore full-length, Dodecahedron previously commented: "We are very excited about our new material. The forthcoming album is more coherent and straight forward compared to the debut. It was written with a clear and cold concept in mind, whereas the first album is a collection of material composed over a five year period. Expect more of our dismal atmospheres and calculated madness." Dodecahedron are simultaneously revealing the new artwork and the track-list of 'Kwintessens', which can both be viewed below. There is a universe of possibilities to explore musical darkness. Yet metal seems to have a tendency for endlessly riding stereotypical riff-horses until they are flogged to death and beyond the point of any meaningful resurrection. Dodecahedron furiously destroy such notions and advance to new horizons. This Dutch League of Extraordinary Musicians is harnessing the power of seething black chaos into a precisely aimed sonic assault. Expanding on the pioneering works of Mayhem in their 'Ordo Ad Chao' (2007) phase and French trailblazers Deathspell Omega, Dodecahedron push this stream of extreme consciousness forward into even more spine-chilling dimensions. Their sophomore full-length 'Kwintessens' arrives with intensified focus. Those atonal and dissonant monstrosities created by ultimate technical mastery and spawned on the self-titled debut album 'Dodecahedron' (2012) are now directing their explosive fury with even more precision straight to the point. The balance between aggression and suspended states of icy shock has been re-calibrated. Dodecahedron started out as Order Of The Source Below before embracing a clear vision of darkness reaching beyond black metal. Carving their own path into the cosmic dark musical matter with a stellar technical brilliance, 'kwintessens' delivers the spark to ignite the new flame. Expect a brutal blast! M. Eikenaar: vocals M.

After releasing their full length in April, the Brazilian Metal band headed out on tour supporting Children of Bodom as their opening act, and followed up the impressive feat by also attending Hell In Rio, one of the biggest Metal festivals in South America, earlier this year. To top the successful year off, the band put together a music video made up of various clips recorded during those shows with Children of Bodom, and thus created the music video for "Dead Man Walking", which showcases a heavier and less melodic side of the band, Surely what got them to gather crowds and landed them a spot in one of the biggest Brazilian festivals there are, alongside acts such as Sepultura. Guitarist Philip also elaborated on the video: "Reckoning Hour came up with the idea of a settling of scores, a heavy dose of reality in the lives of people who have lost sight of their true path. This video is dedicated to the opposition, to those who are willing to do anything to see you fail, but in the end, they're nothing more than memories". Now ready to move onto 2017, the band is already working on setting sail for the US and bring their music to the American masses. Keep an eye on their website for further information. Reckoning Hour presents a new chapter for the melodic death metal music. Born in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the band comes from an idea of a settling of scores, a moment of truth. After the success of their first release Rise of the Fallen, Reckoning Hour signed with Famined Records for the release of their first full length album entitled Between Death and Courage, in April 2016. iTunes - Google Play - Amazon - Merch Follow Reckoning Hour On Facebook Finally!

From the small coastal town of Mangalore (not to be confused with Bangalore), we have Maloic and they tell us a bit about themselves in their video premiere article over HERE. Maloic are a revelation. They're creating music using elements of various genres and creating heavy metal music that has that undeniable classic quality to it. Reminiscent of bands like Amorphis (mid-period), Obituary, Primordial, Sentenced and Metallica, it's definitely got a nostalgic and folk-ish feel to it. The instrumentation is brilliant and with mixing and mastering done by one of the most reputed studios in the country, it's a delight to listen to. The music is instantly memorable, catchy and will have you reaching for the repeat button. Taking into account the fact that the band is only from a small coastal town called Mangalore, the music that we have here is simply overwhelming. This is the reason why we listen to extreme metal - it's full of passion and full of surprises.

Stream that sucker at http://www.metalunderground.com/news/details.cfm?newsid=129811 Chaos Records will release The Great Void of Mystery, on December 12. Led by Julio Viterbo (Tormentor, Shub Niggurath, Cenotaph, The Chasm), the music is primarily NWOBHM-inspired Heavy Metal infused with the range of influences from Viterbo's impressive career as a musician. Pre-order the album at this location. After a long and illustrious career in Death Metal as a guitarist in the aforementioned bands, Viterbo decided to reconnect with the Heavy Metal that enveloped him as a youth and gave meaning to his life. The groundwork was laid in August 2013 when Viterbo participated in the recording of Acerus debut album The Unreachable Salvation, a Heavy Metal album for which he composed half the songs. The work was a turning point in his career as a guitarist, allowing Viterbo to explore new sounds and expand his compositional scope. The result was the launch of Heavens Decay in 2015. After composing several songs, Viterbo invited Oscar Clorio (Damned Cross, Cenotaph, Shub Niggurath, Denial) to join him on the journey as drummer, The pair then recruited Nick Hernandez (Stone Magnum) as vocalist. The songs were completed via the Internet, as Oscar lives in Mexico City, while Julio and Nick call Chicago home. Finally in July 2016 Heavens Decay recorded The Great Void Of Mystery in Chicago's Minbal studios. The album was engineered by Matt Russell and mastered by Dan Swanö in Unisound studios in Sweden. Chaos Records will release the album on CD and digital formats. The band is already working on new material for the next installment of Heavy Metal Fury. |
