 Six years ago guitarist Tim Chandler stepped down from his position as lead guitarist in Forged In Black. Tim had been with the band since they began and it was a sad day when he was forced to relinquish his role. However, in 2022 the stars aligned for Tim and Forged In Black and the guitarist was able to re-join the band he had helped launch once again, renewing his six string partnership with Andy Songhurst. In Tim's absence Forged In Black had released the mighty Sinner Sanctorum EP and their stunning album for Fighter Records, Descent Of The Serpent - leaving Tim with a lot of songs to learn! He's been hard at work behind the scenes and today the band have issued a guitar playthrough video showing that Tim is definitely back in the saddle - check out his playthrough of 'Descent Of The Serpent' right here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MR_tTe39YVQ You can see Tim and Andy discuss their renewed role in this previously released video interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Unx33YVJKM4 Expect to hear a lot more from the band over the coming months as the forge is burning hotter than ever!

Not the worst situation to be in when you are somewhat introvert and have misanthropic tendencies, but it's also kind of boring to only play music in solitude.

Comment on our Facebook page or send us a PM!". “Death Unchained” is available at Non Serviam Records webshop: https://www.non-serviam-records.com/products/nexorum-death-unchained Bandcamp: https://non-serviam-records.bandcamp.com/album/death-unchained Get the album digitally here: http://smarturl.it/kim2px Nexorum comment about the album:- “We all love playing and listening to music and of course the brutality and intensity of extreme metal. I think it is apparent that the album is written with passion when listening to it. We’re not trying to make groundbreaking music or show of how technically we are able to play; we just want to deliver a solid album that we can be proud of!”. The amazing artwork has been created by the Polish renowned artist Rafal Wechterowicz.
Hailing from Trondheim, Norway, the band consists of members from Keep Of Kalessin, Khonsu, CHTON, VECORDIOUS among others.

The menacing new album is due for release on February 23, 2018, and pre-orders are available now via https://kaoteon.bandcamp.com Following up on last week's release of the track "Barren Lands" (which has amassed nearly 12,000 streams on YouTube alone in less than a week), Kaoteon are pleased to reveal a guitar play-through of another new track, "Raging Hellfire", featuring guitarist Anthony Kaoteon. Watch now via Guitar World: https://www.guitarworld.com/artists/kaoteon-premiere-raging-hellfire-guitar-playthrough Anthony tells Guitar World: "'Raging Hellfire' is a museum of fast melodic but yet brutal black metal riffs. You can take all 13 riffs in the song, play them through an orchestra and still get a dark epic symphony of destruction. My Ibanez Prestige neck allows a very comfortable grip which doesn't apply to many guitars. I am not tech savvy so I still use the basics. Walid Wolflust (our singer) hates my analogue passive old school distortion but I enjoy how bright, crunchy and raw my distortion blazes out of my Seymour Duncan pickups and my Blackstar amp. I hope you enjoy this track as much as I do. Take a guess on which riff in 'Raging Hellfire' is the first black metal riff I ever composed even before Walid joined the band in 2001?" While online, check out a brand new write-up on Kaoteon and their fascinating origin story via Revolver Magazine: https://www.revolvermag.com/music/meet-kaoteon-lebanese-metal-band-fighting-religious-political-persecution You can also hear the band's first single, the title track "Damnatio Memoriae" here: https://youtu.be/gVHcFrVcdEg Kaoteon is an unusual east-west international extreme metal collaboration, originally hailing from the Middle East but now based in Amsterdam. Kaoteon fled their native Lebanon after the release of their debut 2011 full-length, Veni Vidi Vomui, due to facing censorship at its highest levels for simply being a metal band. They have been put in jail for devil worshipping, attacked by religious groups, and raided several times by police trying to use them as scapegoats to mask political and religious problems in the region. It's a terrifying but enthrallingly honest story of a metal band trying to exist, succeed and break out of the Middle East. www.facebook.com/kaoteon www.instagram.com/kaoteon https://kaoteon.bandcamp.com  Italian Death Dealers Dominhate have released lyric and drum play-through videos for "Faith Delirius Imago," a song taken from Lavadome Productions EP Emissaries of Morning.

Please check it out! ROLLING STONE INDIA PREMIERE TERRORIZER MAGAZINE PREMIERE NO CLEAN SINGING PREMIERE One of India's longest running bands, Demonic Resurrection, are back with their fifth full length album and it's a unique take on the avatars of Lord Vishnu according to Indian mythology. Each song is dedicated to a different avatar and the artwork and lyrics are indicative of the same. 'Dashavatar' follows the band's trademark epic black/death metal style that the band have cemented over the decades. The fans won't be disappointed and at the same time this is an ambitious leap forward. Tasteful solos accentuate the soaring riffs, all impeccably structured to bring to life stories from ancient Hindu mythology. Suitably atmospheric and tempered to perfection, this album holds its own in an era of ever-increasing individuality. Demonic Resurrection Facebook Page  Earthists. released their debut record, "Dreamscape," in March and has gained a lot of attention for their technical abilities, as well as meaningful lyrics. The band is heavily influenced by progressive metal bands, some of which elements can be showcased in "Footprints." The standout characteristics of technical guitar work in the verses mesh perfectly with catchy lead guitars, all while implementing Guitarist Yuto Hirabayashi's unique chord progressions. "Footprints" was originally intended to be an instrumental track. However, when Hirabayashi joined the band, he perfected the track with additional guitar riffs. The end result also included lyrics that focus on the idea that, "We're always meeting and parting in our lives, but in order to move on, we need to look past our footprints behind us." Watch "Footprints" Play Through Now "Dreamscape" is available now at Merchbucket and MerchNow. Earthists.
