ATARAXIE - New Track Premiere - New Album "Le Déclin" coming soon via Ardua Music & Weird Truth Productions
 French Doom/Deathers ATARAXIE have revealed another song from their upcoming fifth album "Le Déclin", set for release on October 25th 2024 via Ardua Music & Weird Truth Productions on CD, double LP, tape and digitally.
You can listen to the track "The Collapse" here: https://youtu.be/1GRPfaowfrU
The band comments: "'The Collapse' is the final song of our new album. You’ll find inside all main ATARAXIE ingredients, ie a real head banging death metal chorus, furious blast bleats, gloomy clean guitar and funeral doom parts to tie the rope around your neck. So it should appeal to all people supporting us since our early beginning."
They continue: "The lyrics deal with the true loneliness of each human being in these troubled times led by fools and populists. Emotions keep on guiding the masses towards a frustrating life free of legacy. Too many people are trapped into virtual worlds where they bring face to face the worst absurdities and pretend to be spokesmen of new schools of thoughts. As only popularity matters at the end, scientific consensus is now regularly questioned or mocked. (Un)fortunately people turn themselves into Australopithecus minded ones that an old eradicated disease can kill."
Born in the fall of 2000 in Rouen, ATARAXIE take their main inspiration from the early 90s doom/death metal scene and slowest 80s/90s death metal bands. Thus, their genre mainly includes old school death metal parts and classic doom metal ones slowed down in the most extreme way but also various influences from the bleakest metal genres. Their music plays a lot with contrasts in general: ultra slow crushing parts alternate with furious blast beats, mournful parts with more epic ones, and vocals also varies from really deep grunts to tormented screams.

BEDSORE - New Album "Dreaming The Strife For Love" via 20 Buck Spin - Track Premiere
 20 Buck Spin proudly announces "Dreaming The Strife For Love", the sophomore full-length of Italy’s BEDSORE. It will be released on November 29th 2024 on LP, CD, Tape and in digital formats.
With the new album, BEDSORE have jumped headfirst into the progressive warmth and obscure atmospheres of the 1970s. Inspired by the mysterious renaissance-era book ‘Hypnerotomachia Poliphili’, the album musically weaves the concepts of love as a battlefield, where desire and devotion are tested through trials and spiritual awakenings, with visions of pagan temples, mystical gardens, and arcane symbols.
Lush, symphonic, ambitious and romantic in scope, BEDSORE’s "Dreaming The Strife For Love" is 2024’s most surprising fusion of 70s Progressive and Dark Death Metal, old and new production elements, the passionate and the horrific. Like so many of their Italian brethren from Goblin and Devil Doll, to Death SS and Black Hole, Bedsore both embrace tradition and blow it up simultaneously.
Delve into the first advance track, "Realm of Eleuterillide", here: https://youtu.be/7U3ZUWczdSI
Futhermore, a European tour with label mates FULCI is planned for February 2025 – stay tuned for dates!

NASTY SAVAGE - Lyric Video Premiere "Witches Sabbath" feat. Donald & John Tardy of Obituary - New Album out now via FHM Records
 To celebrate the release of their brand new album "Jeopardy Room", US Metal Legends NASTY SAVAGE have unveiled a lyric video for the revamped demo classic "Witches Sabbath", featuring Donald and John Tardy from OBITUARY as special guests!
Check it out at this location: https://youtu.be/4vQCAIJXPNc
The Tardy brothers comment: "It has long been know and well documented that early in Obituary’s career we drew inspiration from local bands in the Tampa area and non more than Nasty Savage. Not necessarily for the music style but for their 'never hold back' approach with over the top live show performances and the opportunity to follow their lead with album recording process at the legendary Morrisound Studios. We were very fortunate at such a young to be able to have conversations with Ronnie Galletti about the local music scene and follow in his footsteps on how to “promote” our band along with guidance on what to expect from the music industry. To this day we remain close friends and having the opportunity to re-record one of their all time classics 'Witches Sabbath' with them was a life long fantasy & dream come true for us. We had a blast with the band recording it and having Jim Morris mix it was just the icing on the cake!"

APOSTASIE - Debut Album "Non Est Deus" via Trollzorn Records - Lyric Video Premiere
 German melodic black metallers APOSTASIE proudly announce their debut album "Non Est Deus", set for release on November 29th 2024 in cooperation with Trollzorn Records.
A lyric video for the track "Theotókos" has been premiered at this location: https://youtu.be/hQm2z-ocqMw
APOSTASIE play melodic black metal with historical and atheist themes. In their first album "Non Est Deus", they narrate the "Historia Ecclesiastica Perversa" - the madness of dogmas, and rituals of the Roman Catholic Church. The album discusses events in the so-called Christian "history of salvation", the Latin-Roman church history, as well as the closely related European history. These events and processes are staged as moments of religious madness, dogmatic contradiction and, at the same time, rational criticism and resistance. The events described cover the period from the so-called "turning point of time", i.e. the birth of Christ, to the so-called Reformation of the Latin-Roman church by Martin Luther.
Tracklist:
1. Intro
2. Non est Deus
3. Theotókos
4. Isapóstolos
5. Eikon
6. Blut schreit Palästina
7. Pein, Pest
8. Ich, Novus Alexander

OLD FOREST - New Album "Graveside" via Soulseller Records - UK Black Metal
 Soulseller Records proudly announces the new full-length of UK Black Metallers OLD FOREST, entitled "Graveside", set for release on December 6th 2024 on CD, LP and in digital versions.
OLD FOREST's 8th album since 1998 is a re-affirmation of the band's purpose and aims, and differs from its predecessor in many ways. "Graveside" embraces a definite primitive and regressive approach to both its writing and recording ; it is a work of deliberate imperfection. From the first notes, it is obviously replete with references both musically and lyrically to those tried & tested themes of Black Metal and horror classics - but always with reverence, and never platitudinous.
"Graveside" is an indulgence in (and of) the most celebrated and earliest "naive" works of such luminaries of the early 90's scene as Emperor, Satyricon, Dimmu Borgir, Gehenna and others. As such, it shows OLD FOREST's willingness to regress back to their roots and once more adopt instinctive and spontaneous composition and recording, whilst casting aside such trivial matters as "innovation" or "perfection".
Some will say that "Graveside" is an intellectualisation of the moronic in Black Metal, but those who embrace its deliberate imperfections will hear a ferociously honest return to the youthful blasphemy of Black Metal and a rejection of the overtly commercial.
"..he who lives the life shall know the doctrine.."
A first advance track will be unleashed on October 17th - stay tuned!

CHRISTIAN MISTRESS - Deal with Cruz Del Sur Music - New Album in early 2025
 Cruz Del Sur Music is proud to announce the signing of cult Northwestern United States metallers CHRISTIAN MISTRESS. The label will issue the band’s long-awaited fourth studio album in early 2025.
Cruz Del Sur’s interest in CHRISTIAN MISTRESS dates back to 2015 when the band was touring Italy in support of the same year’s “To Your Death” studio effort. The feelings were mutual. However, a self-imposed break in 2016 was elongated by the global pandemic. A triumphant return to the stage at the 2023 installment of the “Hell’s Heroes” festival effectively reactivated CHRISTIAN MISTRESS.
Originally formed in 2008, CHRISTIAN MISTRESS issued a self-titled demo in 2009 as well as the “Mother Of Mercy/The Hereafter” single the same year before joining 20 Buck Spin for the release of their 2010 “Agony & Opium” debut long-player. The band subsequently joined Relapse Records in time for the release of 2012’s “Possession”, which was followed by “To Your Death” in 2015.
The band is now a four-piece featuring vocalist Christine Davis, guitarist Tim Diedrich, drummer Reuben Storey and second guitarist/bassist Jonny Wulf. Being that their first three albums were produced in their native Olympia, Washington at the 4-track half-inch reel-to-reel High Command Studio with Captain Tripsballsington, it’s not a surprise CHRISTIAN MISTRESS has opted to record there again.
“It felt only natural to get back in that basement and burn up some more iron oxide with the Captain,” says Storey. “We are wrapping up album tracking in early October, as we write this.
“It is CHRISTIAN MISTRESS as we always have been: authentic, raw, ambitious and honest,” he continues. “A group of friends hashing it out in a room together with amps, Tascams, pens and paper. A live band living. The new album picks up right where we left off with ‘To Your Death’ with more heavy metal sass and new stories to tell.”
