LINDY-FAY HELLA - New Video + Tourdates Announcement
On September 20th, LINDY-FAY HELLA will release her debut solo album, "Seafarer", via Ván Records! Until now, best known for her contributions to WARDRUNA, Lindy-Fay Hella has forged a new, deeply personal path that she invites you to follow her down. Whilst undoubtedly there are some slivers of DNA that link her to her Wardruna compatriots, make no mistake, "Seafarer" is crafted entirely in the vision of its creator.
Front and centre on "Seafarer" is Hella’s evocative voice; searing, longing, and tender. At one point along the way the album was constructed entirely from melodies and intonations of the human voice, but curiosity overtook, and layers of intricate percussion, synths and programming interlace to provide the framework which luscious vocals now flow through.

 BLACK CURSE is a cryptic expression of madness & possession; a vision of hell, a revelry of torment.
Inspired but not indebted to American, South American, Finish and German masters, it finds its own voice amongst the chaos and ruin of those before. This is an expression with no regard for current trends or stylistic narrowness.
Hereby the band's new label home Sepulchral Voice Records announces and premieres the first BLACK CURSE track via soundcloud:

ACID REIGN - First album in 29 years
 UK-Trashers ACID REIGN will release their fourth album “The Age Of Entitlement” on September 27th via Dissonance Productions.
The album artwork is from renowned artist Mark Wilkinson. Mark is famed for his work for and amongst others the mighty Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Marillion and Acid Reign.
“I was introduced to Mark by Al Barnes (Ex Venom) last year in Bloodstock VIP and jokingly said if he ever fancied doing our cover art I’d let him. Fast forward months later and amazingly he agreed to do it! We are thrilled to have such legendary figure involved with our album. For me, as a huge old school Marillion fan it’s the icing on the cake.”
As for the album H had this to say “We started recording on August 1st last year with Jayce Lewis and he has been amazing. He was badgering me to do this for months, we had two other bigger names telling us they would love to do it but Jayce showed us when recording “The Man Who Became Himself” that he would go above and beyond to get the best out of what was a very difficult session. So just think what we could achieve when we are in a much better place. The results are stunning. You have an old school thrash album with a contemporary twist and a production that honours that.
I’ve had the title for a long time, straight off the bat it had an album title ring to it and speaks to a world view that the entire band shares, which is important. Then Mark came up with the artwork which he really knocked out of the park. We are all itching to get this out and now you know when you’ll be able to get hold of it, not long now, single coming soon.“
The album features ten tracks and will be available on streaming services, as a digital download, CD, LP and Limited edition Cyan coloured vinyl.

CRYPT SERMON – New Album “The Ruins of Fading Light” to be released in September
Dark Descent Records proudly announces the highly anticipated sophomore full-length of Pennsylvania-based Epic Doom Metallers CRYPT SERMON!
“The Ruins of Fading Light” will be released on September 13th 2019. It was recorded, mixed & mastered by Arthur Rizk and features an artwork by Brooks Wilson.
A first track, "Key Of Solomon", is available at this location: https://youtu.be/xNdc8tdjWvI

The Italian Renaissance was an age where science and magic intertwined; summoning rituals connected exorcists to esoteric revelations. 'Key of Solomon' refers to a pseudopigraphical text of the same name."
Tracklist:
1. The Ninth Templar (Black Candle Flame)
2. Key Of Solomon
3. Our Reverend's Grave
4. Epochal Vestiges
5. Christ is Dead
6. The Snake Handler
7. Oath Of Exile
8. Enslave the Heathens
9. Beneath the Torchfire Glare
10. The Ruins of Fading Light

Brooks Wilson – Vocals
Steve Jannson – Guitars
James Lipczynski – Guitars
Frank Chin – Bass

NETHERBIRD - Worldwide Deal with Eisenwald
 Swedish melodic black/death metal act NETHERBIRD has signed a worldwide deal with Eisenwald and will issue a new album "Into the Vast Uncharted" this fall.
The Stockholm-based band, which features longtime ex-Amon Amarth drummer Fredrik Andersson, is currently in the mixing phase for its upcoming album. More information will be announced in the coming months.
NETHERBIRD has blurred the boundaries between black, death and other extreme strains of heavy metal since 2004. The band was founded by like-minded individuals among the Swedish metal scene with the intentions of creating harsh metal while drawing inspiration from black and death metal without any regards, or limitations, to the structures surrounding each respective sub-genre.
While originally conceived as a studio project, NETHERBIRD featured a wide array of renowned guests and guild members to add their personal touch to the musical canvas: Adrian Erlandsson (At The Gates, The Haunted, ex-Cradle of Filth, ex-Paradise Lost), Janne Saarenpää (The Crown), Daniel “Mojjo” Moilanen (The Project Hate, Katatonia) among others. Even the further history of NETHERBIRD as a band credits a long list of versatile musicians, such as Nils Fjellström (Nordjevel, ex-Dark Funeral), Tobias Gustafsson (ex-Eucharist), Erik Röjås (Sterbhaus, ex-Decadence), Love Stark (Mephorash, Withershin), to join the unit at different stages and refine its sound with their unique skills.
Over the years, NETHERBIRD has released four full-length albums and made a number of tours across Europe, including several festival appearances. Their latest album is 2016's critically-acclaimed "The Grander Voyage", which catapulted the band into the higher echelon of extreme underground metal. Now, it is time for the next step with the release of "Into the Vast Uncharted" via Eisenwald.
"We are very pleased to announce that we have signed to Eisenwald and that our next album, Into the Vast Uncharted, will be the first release we do with them," says the band’s founder and vocalist Nephente. "We see this collaboration as a natural step for us, and we feel that Eisenwald share our vision and musical direction. Onwards!"
