AD NAUSEAM - Debut album available on vinyl for the first time - Lavadome Productions
 Italian death metal visionaries AD NAUSEAM have just released their 2015 debut album "Nihil Quam Vacuitas Ordinatum Est" on double-LP vinyl edition for the first time via Lavadome Productions.
The album has been remastered to obtain a more in-depth and improved sound as well as gain more dynamic range. A dedicated master for vinyl has been sourced from the new remaster. T
The band, which is known for developing its own equipment to self-produce the sound of its records, comments:
"The mastering of "Nihil Quam Vacuitas Ordinatum Est" started to sound way too far from being perfect to our ears, despite that we are aware it was the best result we could get back then, and it still sounds cool. For this reason, a remaster was in the making since the beginning of 2017. What you can hear now is a high dynamic range remastered version where particular attention has been paid to improve its clarity, punch and dynamics."
Tracklist:
1. My Buried Dream
2. Key To Timeless Laws
3. La Maison Diev
4. Into The Void Eye
5. Terror Haze
6. Lost In The Antiverse
7. The Black Veil Of Original Flaw
8. Superimposing Mere Will And Sheer Need

CRYPTWORM - Debut Full-Length Album via Me Saco Un Ojo and Pulverised Records - "Spewing Mephitic Putridity"
 "Spewing Mephitic Putridity", the debut full-length of UK deathers CRYPTWORM, will be released on March 11th 2022 via Me Saco Un Ojo Records (LP), Pulverised Records (CD) and Extremely Rotten Productions (MC).
The opening track, "Disgorged Chunks of Life", can be checked out here: Youtube +++ Bandcamp
Through the album we see the rib-splitting heaviness grow as each of the fantastically ferocious elements of the bands 2 EP’s and split seem to be pushed further into overdrive. The faster parts are even more frantic, the slower parts more drudging and the crawling mids ooze slimy soundscapes that only the most vomitous snarls could penetrate them. Primitive yet full of dynamics (though only the most grotesque ones), this is Death Metal that will have every orifice in ecstatic convulsions as the cadaver mutates to the rhythmic destruction throughout.
The artwork was created by Skaðvaldur.
Tracklist:
1. Disgorged Chunks of Life
2. Immense Cerebral Decomposition
3. Reduced to Liquified Mass
4. Disembowelment (Draped in Gore)
5. Premature Entombment
6. Septic Phlegm Asphyxia
7. Amorphous Transmutations
8. Spewing Mephitic Putridity
Line-up:
Tibor Hanyi - Vocals / Guitars / Bass
Joe Knight - Drums

THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION - New Video Clip - "Emmaline"
 Australian psychedelic rock and roll brigade THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION has premiered another song from their upcoming new album "Le Demon De L’Amour", which will be released on February 14th 2022 via Cruz Del Sur Music.
Check out the video clip for "Emmaline" at this location: https://youtu.be/CIwwPNaPh7o
THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION rocks as furiously as ever on their fifth studio full-length!
Recorded at bass player JayTanic Ritual’s The Ped Food Factory in Marrickville, Sydney, with mixing duties provided by Clem Bennett, "Le Demon De L’Amour" leads the band into their tenth anniversary next year. Their journey has taken them from the sweaty clubs of Sydney to a global audience. Now armed with eight love songs sure to melt and captivate the most hardened metal hearts, THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION boldly goes where few bands dare to go.
Off the heels of their acclaimed 2019 "Memoirs of a Rat Queen" studio album, the members of THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION utilized the unexpected downtime afforded from the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic to craft an album that takes more chances than its predecessor. While the band’s trademark rock swagger and prog tendencies still come into play, "Le Demon" ups the voltage and energy. True, there is a multitude of genre-blurring taking place, but the album’s infectious choruses and leaden riffs easily re-imagine metal and rock’s glory eras without blatant thievery.
Of course, all roads to THE NEPTUNE POWER FEDERATION run through lead vocalist Screamin’ Loz Sutch and her stage persona, The Imperial Priestess. "Le Demon"’s eight cuts find the indomitable frontwoman in top form, belting out tales of love from a female’s perspective, weaving in stories of cult worship, murder and hypnotism. The album’s artwork (created by guitarist Inverted CruciFox) also introduces her new nemesis - The Wizzard Princess.
The first single, "My Precious One", is available here: https://youtu.be/NvhJWU4dVfI
Tracklist:
1. Weeping on the Morn
2. My Precious One
3. Baby You’re Mine
4. Loving You Is Killing Me
5. Stay with Thee
6. Emmaline
7. Madly in Love
8. We Beasts of the Night

SÖLICITÖR - New EP "All Debts on Death" via Gates Of Hell Records
 New 7-inch from one of North America’s most exciting new speed metal bands!
Hot off the heels of 2020’s no-holds-barred "Spectral Devastation", SÖLICITÖR returns with the stopgap "All Debts on Death" 7-inch that charts new territory while still offering first-pumping speed metal anthems!
"All Debts on Death" was recorded in late February 2021 at Sentinel Studios with producer/engineer Detto, who has recently gained attention for his organic production jobs for death metal bands Cerebral Rot, Mortiferum and Oxygen Destroyer. Detto tracked the band on half-inch tape, then recorded the tape to a digital program where guitars and vocals were laid down, ensuring a full and heavy sound.
As a natural function of their collaboration with Detto, SÖLICITÖR ventured into new territory regarding production values. The two songs are devoid of effects, albeit some minor reverb on the chorus on the vocals, although vocalist Amy Lee Carlson opted to completely forego doubled harmonies. The rhythm section of Damon Cleary-Erickson (bass) and Johan Waymire (drums) is much higher in the mix, further complementing the guitar duo of Matt Vogan and Pat Fry. However, the “less is more” approach for studio production doesn’t hinder the two songs. "Killer for Hire" is a classic SÖLICITÖR speed-burner, complete with a fist-bumping chorus, while "Megalomaniac" ventures into new territory, including riffs that bring to mind legendary Norwegian black metallers Darkthrone, topped off by Carlson’s soaring vocals.
As positive signs gradually start to emerge from the pandemic, SÖLICITÖR is chomping at the bit to return to the live stage. In the meantime, the band is slowly assembling the pieces for their next studio album - due sometime in 2022. Consider "All Debts on Death" a sign of what’s to come!

SENTIENT HORROR - New Album "Rites Of Gore" via Testimony Records - Details and Video Clip revealed
 Testimony Records proudly announces the third full-length album of New Jersey based Death Metallers SENTIENT HORROR!
"Rites Of Gore" will be released on April 22nd 2022 on CD, LP and digitally. It was mixed by Jonny Pettersson at Studio Unbound, Sweden and mastered by Dan Swanö at Unisound Osterby, Germany. The cover artwork was created by Juanjo Castellano Rosado.
The first single / video clip, "Till Death Do Us Rot", can be checked out here: https://youtu.be/ncuk9SX0blI
Pre-orders: https://testimonyrecords.bandcamp.com/album/sentient-horror-rites-of-gore
Once again, with the help of Redefining Darkness Records (N. America) and Testimony Records (Europe), SENTIENT HORROR are gearing up to release their third full length album “Rites Of Gore,” a record that twists, turns, molds, and deconstructs the listener on a lucid journey through the macabre and the magnificent.
Frontman and creative mastermind Matt Moliti says: "I started writing 'Rites Of Gore' around the fall of 2020. The pandemic really had an effect on me mentally. I became very pessimistic and misanthropic over people’s inability to cooperate and do the right thing in the face of a global crisis. That headspace resulted in a record that is overall more direct and brutal than our previous album, 'Morbid Realms'."
Early listeners to the record report that this is SENTIENT HORROR at their most deadly. Progression and retrospection balance on a rotting carcass while the soundtrack to a war rages all around. Do not make the mistake of being an innocent bystander. The band returns to classic themes of the undead and murderous slashers. Join them in their tales of blood gargling gore as they melt your face off with punishing riffs and finely honed songs.
Tracklist:
1. A Faceless Corpse
2. Obliteration of Souls
3. Swamp Burial
4. Rites of Gore
5. Splitting Skulls
6. Descend to Chaos
7. The Grave is my Home
8. Till Death Do Us Rot
9. The Eyes of Dread

ERIC WAGNER - First single from posthumous solo album "In The Lonely Light Of Mourning"
 The first single from former TROUBLE singer Eric Wagner’s posthumous solo album, "In The Lonely Light Of Mourning" has been revealed.
Check out ""Maybe Tomorrow" at this location: https://youtu.be/TDxWg92ikSs
Pre-Orders: https://tinyurl.com/yybxfk47 (CD) +++ https://tinyurl.com/2p95uud9 (LP)
Recorded at Alpha Sound Services and Aardvark Recording, "In The Lonely Light Of Mourning" was completed and delivered to Cruz Del Sur Music a month before Eric's untimely passing. Initially scheduled for a November 2021 release, Cruz Del Sur Music — in cooperation with Eric's manager, Mike Smith — agreed to move the release date to March 2022 to give it the attention it deserves.
The solo endeavor — a longtime goal of Eric's — serves as a fitting testament to one of doom metal's most respected voices. Eric tapped former TROUBLE/current BLACKFINGER drummer David Snyder to help him assemble the album's eight cuts. Along the way, Eric brought in some of his favorite musicians as guests — including past and present members of TROUBLE, BLACKFINGER, THE SKULL, LID, PENTAGRAM, DEATH ROW and PLACE OF SKULLS.
According to Snyder, the origins for “Maybe Tomorrow” had been kicking around for quite some time.
“The pre-chorus part was definitely influenced by Chuck Robinson’s old band, THIS TORTURED SOUL which at that time, I had the pleasure of playing second guitar for a few shows,” he says. “That influenced things for sure. The verses and descending single note parts were Eric’s suggestions and the main riff was originally just single notes. And, just before recording, Eric wanted it heavier, so I added the low droning open note and asked what he thought and in true Eric form, he calmly said, ‘That’s it. It’s a jam.’
“On the first rough mixes you can hear him say it when the song started while he did the vocals, which definitely brought a smile every time I heard it,” Snyder continues. “The songs’ style ended up being a cool full-circle thing with Chuck and I and being fans of Eric’s music, who greatly influenced our own styles. Add in Lothar Keller’s stunning solo and Ron Holzner’s badass bass and it rounded the whole track out rather well, I have to say.”
“It's very interesting hearing this tune now that Eric has gone to the other side,” adds Keller. “Call it premonition or whatever someone's take on it is — you can hear it in his voice and it will definitely hit you. I am honored to have been a part of Eric's last album and his legacy will continue to live on in the hearts of many!”
The aforementioned Robinson played a vital role on “The Lonely Light Of Mourning”. Robinson wrote “Isolation” and “Wish You Well” and co-wrote “Rest In Peace” with Snyder. He also played rhythm guitars on every song except “If He Lost It All” and played bass on “Wish You Well”.
“The groove and vibe on ‘Maybe Tomorrow’ is insane!” says Robinson. “It’s just a killer riff with great drive. Dave is such a great remember. I remember Eric was very adamant how he wanted the feel to be. Eric’s lyrics were so personal to him. He was a master with words, hidden meanings and messages. Only he knew for sure…”
Tracklist:
01. Rest In Place
02. Maybe Tomorrow
03. Isolation
04. If You Lost It All
05. Strain Theory
06. Walk With Me To The Sun
07. In The Lonely Light Of Mourning
08. Wish You Well

HITTEN - New Single / Video Clip - "Something To Hide"
 Spain's classic Heavy Metal force HITTEN has revealed another single from their upcoming new album, "Triumph & Tragedy"!
A video clip for "Something To Hide" is available at this location: https://youtu.be/HKipMJUzoTA
"Triumph & Tragedy" will be released via High Roller Records on November 26th 2021.
The band's fourth full-length showcases an evolution that takes the band to a closer sound to the US Hard and Heavy from the 80s with guitar riffs that could match the magic of guitar heroes such as George Lynch or Paul Gilbert. About the vocals, it is definitely hard to find a singer who hits the high octaves the way the singer Alexx Panza can do, clean and melodic with an outstanding quality that will delight the ears of fans of bands such as Firehouse, Crimson Glory, Queensrÿche or Riot. "Triumph & Tragedy" establishes HITTEN as one of the best Heavy Metal bands nowadays!
The cover artwork was created by Marc Schoenbach (Sadistart Designs) while the back cover and booklet graphics have been made by Dani Meseguer (Bloodyart Designs).
