 Manchester-based Industrial Metal / Punk artists Syd.31 will release their second album, "Walk Amongst Rebels". "Walk Amongst Rebels" is about survival and overcoming what life throws at you. After dealing with the loss of his home, job, loved ones, and relationship in a short span. Dr Magic, founder/vocalist of Syd.31 explains what went into the making of the album.. "This is my first biographical album, true stories based on horrible situations I’ve faced, every time I thought my entire world was ending. I’ve gone back to all the bands I was in love with during these times to re-live the sounds and feel of those punk and metal anthems that got me through it. Its messy, I cry during takes and made myself sick, but I love every moment. I want others to feel their trauma through this album and realise everything is gonna be OK, that whatever is thrown at you." Featuring nasty guitar riffs, stomping beats, and filthy basslines, "Walk Amongst Rebels" incites anger,duress, and civil disobedience.
Syd.31 is a project formed by front man and producer Dr Magic as a showcase for his songwriting and a desire to create an exciting sound that he would love to watch. Bored of paying big bucks to watch formulaic bands; he decided to merge his love of hardcore punk, industrial metal and sickly sweet pop music to create angry, powerful anthems design to connect with freaks, weirdos and outsiders. Armed with a punk vitriol, a rock ‘n roll swagger and backed by feral stage crew, Syd.31 is now set to make waves in the US after smashing the UK. Expect BIG things. https://www.facebook.com/Syd31

 (photo by Aline Fournier) Swiss black metal pioneers Samael release new video for the title track off their latest album "Hegemony" – watch HERE! Samael are widely known for their Industrial Black Metal armed with wind sections passing through shivering synthesizers. On point and frighteningly brutal, fiery whirlwinds of hypnotic hammering riff forces overlay gruesomely gurgling vocals driving you over the edge. Order their latest album Hegemony right HERE. Samael awakened on the 14th of July 1988 when brothers Xytraguptor and Vorphalack loaded their musical gear into an atomic bunker. Almost 20 years after that day the band experienced a rebirth with the release of Solar Soul (2007). The album, co-produced by long-time producer Waldemar Sorychta and mixed by Stefan Glaumann (Rammstein, Within Temptation...) is now fully remastered and will be released with the addition of 9 bonus tracks (2 remixes, 6 instrumental songs, 1x live track). After resurrecting black metal in the early '90's with their debut album Worship Him, introducing symphonic metal in 1994 with Ceremony of Opposites and pioneering industrial metal with Passage in 1996; Samael released Lvx Mvndi in 2011, a record that built a bridge over the 20+ years of the band's history by melting all sides and personalities of the band into a masterpiece. Now the album has been remixed from stems, remastered and will be released with the addition of 7 bonus tracks. Get your copies of lately re-issued Lvx Mvndi HERE and Solar Soul HERE! Samael are: Vorph: Guitars, Vocals Xy: Keyboards and Programming Drop: Guitars Zorrac: Bass facebook.com/OfficialSamael twitter.com/samaelofficial youtube.com/user/samaeltv napalmrecords.com  French industrial/metal band Schultz is very proud to announce their highly-anticipated new album, Shot Of Pain. This new album marks a real change in Schultz's career; a new direction from previous releases which were more oriented in the harsh noise and rhythmic industrial styles. Shot Of Pain will be available as a limited-edition CD as well as in digital format on MAY 6!!
All tracks recorded, mixed, produced by ARTSOUNDMIX STUDIOS (Nice) Mastering by QFG STUDIOS Canadian Industrial Groove one-man project Dark Years From Now to release debut album on 8th March14/2/2019  Based in Vancouver BC, this sonically diverse act is the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist Dan Potter. Using heavy barrages of thrashing poly-rhythmic riffage to whip up intensity levels, DYFN descends into abstracted darkness and finds a sonic blueprint that’s filled with endless possibilities. Guitars are driven to their most extreme by incorporating experimental approaches in technique and composition serving as a perfect backdrop to the deep, chaotic experiences brought forth lyrically as dark riddles are wretched out with harrowing screams. The debut LP by Dark Years from Now was conceived to be a unique listening journey. Whether it’s the pulsating industrial metal edged aesthetic or the cathartic layers of electronic instrumentation, each track offers a world of intriguing sound and substance. Unafraid to take a non-linear approach, many of the songs are forged with abstract intent even using the words as yet another aural paintbrush, obscuring to reveal. Four of the eleven tracks are instrumental in nature providing more time for listeners in the churning abyss of variable perception. Dark Years from Now will release its self-titled debut on March 8, 2019.  German industrial metal pioneers Oomph! have entered the German album charts at #1 for the first time with their sixth full-length "Ritual", which has just been released via Napalm Records. Oomph! will hit the European roads with "Ritual" in March and while the show in Bochum is already out, ticket reserves are also running low in other German cities as well as in Prague in the Czech Republic. All currently announced dates are listed below. The band is commenting on their success:- "We are already in the middle of preparations for our European tour and we can hardly wait to present our number one album live on stage. While composing 'Ritual' we made sure that all tracks are also working well in a live setting - they rock! We are burning to go out and celebrate those brand new songs with our fans!" On further news, the band has released a first video clip for the anti-war anthem "Tausend Mann und ein Befehl" taken from "Ritual", which can be viewed at this link:- www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ja7FYU3DxY  16 FEB 2019 Kiev (UA) October Palace 01 MAR 2019 Hannover (DE) Capitol 02 MAR 2019 Berlin (DE) Astra 03 MAR 2019 Hamburg (DE) Markthalle 05 MAR 2019 Bochum (DE) Zeche [sold out!] 06 MAR 2019 Wiesbaden (DE) Schlachthof 08 MAR 2019 Stuttgart (DE) Im Wizemann 09 MAR 2019 München (DE) Backstage Werk 10 MAR 2019 Dresden (DE) Kraftwerk Mitte 12 MAR 2019 Leipzig (DE) Täubchenthal 13 MAR 2019 Nürnberg (DE) Hirsch 15 MAR 2019 Köln (DE) Live Music Hall 16 MAR 2019 Drachten (NL) Iduna 17 MAR 2019 Strasbourg (FR) La Laiterie 19 MAR 2019 London (UK) O2 Academy Islington 20 MAR 2019 Paris (FR) La Machine 22 MAR 2019 Madrid (ES) Sala Mon 23 MAR 2019 Barcelona (ES) Razzmatazz 2 24 MAR 2019 Lyon (FR) Ninkasi Kao 26 MAR 2019 Solothurn (CH) Kofmehl 28 MAR 2019 Dornbirn (AT) Conrad-Sohm 29 MAR 2019 Praha (CZ) Meet Factory 30 MAR 2019 Warszawa (DE) Dark Electro Festival 10 AUG 2019 Hildesheim (DE) Mera Luna Festival  (Photo Credit: Heilemania) The music video premiere of the brand new OOMPH! single "Tausend Mann Und Ein Befehl" is upon us, taken from the upcoming studio album Ritual - out on January 18th.

Oomph! on the new single "Kein Liebeslied": "Kein Liebeslied was written by us three in a joint session in our recording studio on a very creative day in February 2016 and later refined even further.

Gold and platinum awards, international top chart entries and their number #1 hit single "Augen Auf!" speak for themselves! Hardly a band has ever influenced the German musical scene so deeply and still keeps it heavily fascinated! The trio around CRAP, DERO and FLUX is now ready to release its thirteenth album Ritual. "Our most aggressive, heaviest and darkest album in a while“, singer Dero states truthfully. After the signing with Napalm Records earlier this year, it's time to unveil all album details of their forthcoming Ritual. The band states on Ritual: "We are very happy to introduce you to our new album "Ritual" today! This album contains 100% Oomph!: We wrote, produced and mixed everything in our own recording studio! We used our time in between two tours to get some fresh and very inspiring impact of the recent live experiences and composed the majority of the songs in jam sessions all together. That probably explains why the songs on Ritual are hard, riff-heavy and dark. The album Artwork brilliantly supports the mystical character of our songs and lyrics and leaves plenty of scope for own interpretations."

Featuring the band's original line-up introduced on their 1999 platinum-selling debut full-length album, Wisconsin Death Trip, bassist Tony Campos, guitarist Koichi Fukuda and drummer Ken Jay have joined forces once again to release a new album, Project Regeneration. The album, set for release in spring 2019, will be released in conjunction with a world tour to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Wisconsin Death Trip. The band plans to perform the majority of their debut album at each show. Headline dates will serve as memorial events to honour late frontman Wayne Static, who passed away on November 1, 2014. More information on the world tour and other dates will be coming soon. The band has cultivated a treasure chest of vocal performances and musical compositions left behind by Wayne. Along with the help of Static-X 's long-time producer Ulrich Wild, the band is in the process of completing their seventh studio album, which will feature between 12 and 15 brand new Static-X tracks. "With the 20th anniversary of Wisconsin Death Trip quickly approaching, it feels like the right time to pay our respects to the band, to Wayne, and to all the fans who have been with us right from the start. We had a lot of material to work with... several demos that Wayne left behind, as well as some really great isolated vocal performances from some nearly finished songs. Together, we have been writing and crafting something very special!" says bassist Tony Campos Check out a new teaser featuring clips from a brand new music video, as well as five new Static-X tracks - "Road To Hell", "Something Of My Own", "Terminator Oscillator", "Hollow" and "Disco Otsego" - along with a personal message from bassist Tony Campos about the inspiration behind Project Regeneration now at www.static-x.org. For the unfinished tracks, the band is inviting several of their friends to lend their voices for the completion of this very personal project. "We have confirmed interest from our friends David Draiman, Ivan Moody, Al Jorgensen, Dez Fafara, Edsel Dope, Burton C Bell, and a few others," says Campos. "Unfortunately, due to everyone's crazy schedules, it is a little early to know how things will shake out. We are more than confident that the album will have some incredible guest vocalists, but it should be noted that it is still too early to count anyone in 100%."  The guest vocalist curation process is being led by none other than SiriusXM programming pioneer Jose Mangin, who is working alongside the band as one of the executive producers for Project Regeneration. Static-X has created a pre-order campaign allowing fans who purchase Project Regeneration in advance to have their name appear in the liner notes of the new album. Additional special pre-order package options are also available, including Project Regeneration merch bundles and several old school Static-X merch items to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Wisconsin Death Trip. Pre-orders are available via www.static-x.org. "This is a celebration of Static-X Wisconsin Death Trip, Wayne Static, and all of our fans," adds Campos. "We are very excited about what we have created, so we wanted to involve the fans early, and in a campaign sort of way, so that they can participate with us and help to dictate some of the things that we do." "Reuniting with the guys has been an amazing experience," says drummer Ken Jay. "It's been so much fun sharing stories and working on new music together. Obviously, it is bittersweet because we all miss Wayne and we wish that he was here with us, doing what he did best... Evil Disco..." "I am so excited to play Static-X songs live again," says guitarist Koichi Fukuda. "The Static-X sound is so big and powerful live! I can't wait to play songs like "Bled For Days", "Push It" and "I'm With Stupid" again." Static-X plans to do multiple video updates and a series of Facebook Live chats over the next few months in order to keep the fans involved as the process continues to unfold. "We feel very grateful that we have such a loyal fan base that misses the band, and misses Wayne, and I know that Wayne would appreciate all the heart and effort that we are putting into this," says Tony Campos. "I've had some very heartfelt discussions with Wayne's family about doing this. They were very touched by the amount of love and effort that we have put into this new album and they have given us their full support. Having the blessing of Wayne's family means the world to us! I know in my heart that Wayne would be very proud! Stay tuned for more Project Regeneration and world tour details coming soon! www.static-x.org www.facebook.com/staticx/ Twitter: @officialstaticx Instagram: @staticxofficial |
