PROWLER RELEASE 2 TRACK SINGLE

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Prowler are one of the UK original NWOBHM bands who also first appeared on the legendary MCA 1980's NWOBHM compilation album Brute Force, and now they have signed to Metal Nation Records, the label owned by ex-Tygers Of Pan Tang vocalist, Jess Cox.

 The band from Essex are in the process of putting together material for their debut album. They played live in the height of the NWOBHM but never got to release their own LP.  They did though do recordings over the pursuing decades with UK metal God producer, the late lamented Chris Tsangarides, and as a tribute to Chris after his untimely passing in 2018, the band want to close the circle and make the album now.

 Prowler feature original members Trev Pattenden (v+b) and Martin Burrows (g) who can be seen in the photo here at their recording studio in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, where they have been longtime residents.

 The album as yet untitled will not be available until Summer 2021. Meanwhile, the band wished to contribute to the NWOBHM 40th Anniversary year 1980-2020 and so there will be a 500 limited edition two-track download single released this Friday 27th November. Both tracks are from 1980 and were produced by Chris. Bad Child Running is the title track backed by the aforementioned Brute Force original recording 'Gotta Get Back To You . 

 The artwork for this single is by Trev Pattenden.

  Both these original 1980 recordings will be available for a limited period only, so get them while you can from all download and streaming sites worldwide including iTunes, Deezer, Amazon and Spotify

ENSLAVED TO STREAM WINTER SOLSTICE SHOW

 

PRESS RELEASE:

ENSLAVED's new studio album Utgard was recently released into the world, the concept of which explores the esoteric place in Norse mythology that celebrates the rebirth of the individual - a place where one goes for unification of that which is above and that which lies below. A reckoning of dark and light, of night and day.

The digital event will feature all three parts of ENSLAVED's recent Cinematic Summer Tour, the revered filmed performances titled; 'Chronicles of the Northbound', 'Below the Lights' and 'Utgard the Journey Within'.

ENSLAVED's Ivar Bjørnson commented: "We are moving towards the end of a year where many of us have experienced disappointments and perhaps a feeling of something being lost. In our part of the world one could easily start feeling as if the daily decrease in daylight hours is a double underlining of the misery that will be forever associated with 2020. There is no point in sweeping it under the rug; the pandemic has been, and still is, a total and utter bummer. It is affecting, and in the most negative of ways: our basic social needs, our instinct to move around travel, to do our job; you want to do it - Corona will stop you.

But we do our best, and we find new paths in the dark. That is what humans do - and more often than not we are helped by not only those close to us - but by larger groups formed and joined by common interests, for example. The enormity of the support, and the strength of the community we have felt and experienced as Enslaved this year, has been fantastic. With fond new memories of a vibrant and expanding Enslaved-community throughout the very same year that tried so hard to bring us all down - perspectives start to change and brighten: these shorter and shorter days are definitely not a count-down to some impending doom on the horizon: they are reminders of the change that lies ahead of us. They will keep on darkening until that Shortest of Days - Winter Solstice. Whether you are guided and inspired by old traditions and rites like us, or if you prefer to stick to the scientific observations of Earth’s poles reaching their maximum tilt away from the Sun, before starting the way back towards warmer and sunnier days - we hope you will join us in what we expect to the be a very special and highly charged celebration of the Death and Rebirth of the Sun this year.

It does not matter if the troubles are not “over” yet - we will celebrate through music and our bonds; that we have made it through 2020, that we are still here, that we still have our community and that we make each other strong. That strength will carry over, into yet another new solar cycle - and make us ready to face whatever the coming times have in store for us."

MACABRE RELEASE ANIMATED VIDEO FOR "JOE BALL WAS HIS NAME"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Two weeks ago, Chicago legends of Murder Metal/Death Metal MACABRE released their demented, heinous bloodbath of an album, Carnival Of Killers via Nuclear Blast. Today, the band reveal the video for "Joe Ball Was His Name" which was created by Sweden’s Amanda Odenlid who previously made MACABRE MINSTRELS (Macabre unplugged) videos for “The Cat Came Back," "Found A Peanut," "The Geins," & "Tom Dooley”.

Watch the animated video for "Joe Ball Was His Name" here: https://youtu.be/O8_WaVOwfA4

MACABRE's Corporate Death comments, "Joe Ball was a serial killer called the Alligator Man. I started writing this song around our Grim Scary Tales era, but never actually finished it until getting things in place to record Carnival Of Killers. Reading more about him and his evil deeds from way back in the 1930’s I tried to give the song an old-time ragtime feel. I hope you like it, it’s a little different, but so are we.

Amanda Odenlid quote: "I made the Macabre Minstrels videos just for fun, back when my interest in true crime had really taken off full force (thanks to discovering Macabre, actually).

The "chibi"-style I used first saw the light of day when I started making a sort of tongue-in-cheek webcomic about Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer living together. I like the style because it is simple but expressive, and I also like the clash that occurs between the cartoony VS the grotesque and morbid. Having listened to Macabre for 10+ years has made me realize that, while morbid, there is also quite a lot of dark humor in their music as well. Kind of like my own art, in a way.

As for this new video about Joe Ball; making it basically forced me out of an art-block I'd been having, also making me rediscover how fun it was to draw in this old chibi-style of mine. I went from only having heard of Ball's name somewhere, to almost knowing everything about him that there is to know (except his exact body-count). Despite the grim subject-matter, it was really fun to learn something new and to revisit my old passions for drawing and video-making!"

WITHERFALL RELEASE VIDEO FOR "AS I LIE AWAKE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

The moon, an autumnal atmosphere, fog in the woods, vampires and a wicked storyteller – as an 80s horror fan you’ll get everything you desired by watching the cinematic new video clip for WITHERFALL’s “As I Lie Awake”. The video was directed by the renown director Zev Deans who didn’t just do spectacular videos for the likes of Ghost, Behemoth or Chelsea Wolfe, but also Denzel Curry and St. Vincent.

Dim the lights, sit back and enjoy “As I Lie Awake (Official Video)”: https://youtu.be/KFbrq-n17Gs

WITHERFALL comments: “’As I Lie Awake’ is the catchiest WITHERFALL song to date. It was created with much arguing and loud drunken chicanery. Early on the band and producer Jon Schaffer agreed that this should be the lead single. Director Zev Deans who had directed Ghost’s ‘Dance Macabre’ was enlisted for the job and the video for ‘As I Lie Awake’ features a great ‘Lost Boys’ styled treatment. Thanks again to Duffs in Brooklyn, we didn’t mean to spill blood and wine on your carpet…”

Director Zev Deans about the video: “When Joseph sent me the song, it immediately transported me to an era when both heavy metal and horror movies were all about sex, blood and ultimately, a good time! Movies like ‘The Lost Boys’ were in the movie theaters and long-format music videos like ‘Thriller’ were on MTV.”

“As I Lie Awake” is the second single taken from “Curse Of Autumn”, the upcoming album from L.A.’s finest WITHERFALL that is scheduled for a worldwide street date on March 5th, 2021 with the US vinyl being available April 2nd, 2021. Preorders will be launched shortly.

What could possibly be a better time of the year to dive headfirst into dark melodic metal? While the shadows of winter are creeping up upon us and the nights get longer it is the perfect time for “Curse Of Autumn” to unfold.

The album art is once again another hand painted masterpiece by the legendary Kristian Wåhlin, the fourth painting in the WITHERFALL series.

“Curse Of Autumn” was produced by Jon Schaffer (Iced Earth, Demons & Wizards) for Ravencraft Productions, Joseph Michael (vocals, keyboards, also in Sanctuary) and Jake Dreyer (guitar, also in Iced Earth, Demons & Wizards). For the recording and mix they teamed up with Jim Morris (Savatage, Iced Earth, Kamelot, Death) while Tom Morris took over mastering duties. After most WITHERFALL songs were written with just an acoustic guitar, pen and paper and copious amounts of red wine, it was the group effort of the full production team that made a difference. “Jon Schaffer and Jim Morris really brought a lot of energy to these sessions”, Michael comments.

WITHERFALL are:

Joseph Michael - Vocals/Keyboards (also in Sanctuary)

Jake Dreyer - Acoustic and Electric Guitars (also in Iced Earth/Demons & Wizards)

Anthony Crawford - Bass (Chon, Shalmor, Allan Holdsworth, Justin Timberlake, Kirk Whalum…)

Marco Minnemann - Drums (The Aristocrats, Joe Satriani, Steven Wilson, Tony Levin, Jordan Rudess, Necrophagist…)

Alex Nasla - Live Keyboards

HIDEOUS DIVINITY RELEASE DRUMS PLAYTHROUGH FOR "ANAMORPHIA ATTO III"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Italian Technical Death Metal force HIDEOUS DIVINITY release a drum playthrough video for the track “Anamorphia Atto III” taken off of their current album “SIMULACRUM”, which got released in 2019. Check out the video HERE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uos4s2HLG50

With a strong passion for drums since the early childhood, Giulio Galati started taking drum lessons at the age of 10 with Armando Bertozzi, Stefano Rossini, Daniele Pomo (St. Louis College of Music), Lucrezio De Seta, Ettore Fioravanti (Santa Cecilia Conservatory of Music) and Giampaolo Rao.

The educational path led him through different music styles like jazz, Latin, fusion, and rock. Thanks to the influence of all these styles and the variety of music listened to, he evolved to metal drumming and to the use of the double pedal by developing a personal language that attempts to melt together everything he has been and continues to be exposed to.

Huge inspirations were and still are Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, Kiko Freitas, Gavin Harrison, Mike Portnoy, George Kollias, Derek Roddy, and Thomas Haake.

IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT RELEASE VIDEO FOR "EXCELSIOR"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

New York avant-garde metal outfit IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT release their new music video for “Excelsior”, directed by the band’s very own Steve Blanco. Watch the video HERE!

“Many people flock to the big city with golden dreams in their eyes willing to do whatever it takes to succeed, like the ones they see at the top. It is the seal of approval; The medieval crest upon which the very fabric of humanity’s elevation prevails. The failure and losing streak is a deceptive reality that slowly finds its way as diminishing returns, caught up in the illusory system. Ever upwards,” states Imperial Triumphant bassist Steve Blanco about the music video.

“Excelsior” is off the band’s newest full-length album Alphaville , which came out this past summer via Century Media Records. The album was produced and engineered at New York’s Menegroth Studio by Colin Marston (Behold... The Arctopus, Dysrhythmia, Krallice and Gorguts) and Trey Spruance (Mr. Bungle). The album also features a number of special guests such as Tomas Haake (Meshuggah) on taiko drums, Phlegeton (Wormed) on guest vocals, Yoshiko Ohara (ex-Bloody Panda) as part of the choirs, RK Halvorson as part of the Barbershop quartet, Sarai Chrzanowski as part of the choirs, Andromeda Anarchia (Folterkammer, Dark Matters) as part of the choirs, J Walter Hawkes on the trombone, and Colin Marston on guitars. Alphaville can be streamed and purchased HERE.

Just this Tuesday, the band announced the pre-order of their Alphaville cassette tape, which will ship in December and will be available in two unique editions. The deluxe edition will be available in 100 copies in an ultra clear tape shell with metallic gold print and a Norelco case with an additional slipcase. It will also include a 4 panel cover foldout, an embossed Total Dissonance Worship card, a sticker pack and will be signed by each band member. The standard edition will be available in 100 copies in a metallic gold tape shell with metallic silver print and a Norelco case with a horizontal obi strip. Pre-order the Alphaville cassette tape HERE.

IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT officially began in 2012 with their debut release Abominamentvm. The line-up consisted of Zachary Ilya Ezrin on guitar/vocals and the rhythm section of their NYC contemporaries: Pyrrhon. Soon they met with drummer Kenny Grohowski and began to feature him on their next two releases Goliath (EP) and Abyssal Gods (LP). In 2015, they introduced bassist Steven Blanco to their lineup. In 2016, they released another EP Inceste, which saw them tour heavily that year with temporary second guitarist Max Gorelick. 2018 brought about their magnum statement, Vile Luxury . The full-length album, written collectively by the trio (Ezrin, Grohowski, Blanco), was a homage to their hometown New York City that brought jazz elements to the avant-garde black metal style in a way never achieved before. They toured extensively in Europe and North America from 2018-19 in support of the groundbreaking full-length.

IMPERIAL TRIUMPHANT is Zachary Ilya Ezrin (vocals, guitars), Steve Blanco (bass, vocals, piano, mellotron, synths, taiko drums) and Kenny Grohowski (drums, taiko drums).

LORNA SHORE RELEASE DRUMS PLAYTHROUGH FOR "DEATH PORTRAIT"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

New Jersey extreme metal band LORNA SHORE releases their new drum playthrough of “Death Portrait”. Watch the playthrough of drummer Austin Archey premiering exclusively on Sick Drummer HERE 

“Death Portrait” is off the band’s latest full-length, Immortal, which came out earlier this year via Century Media Records to rave reviews. The band have released music videos for “King Ov Deception”, “Death Portrait”, and “ Immortal” off the new LP, which was written by guitarist Adam DeMicco and drummer Austin Archey and was produced by Josh Schroeder (The Color Morale, In Hearts Wake). Immortal is available to stream and purchase HERE.

Formed in 2010, LORNA SHORE is quick to surpass expectations with 2012’s Bone Kingdom EP and it’s follow-up, 2013’s Malificium EP, which peaked at #3 on the US iTunes Metal charts.

Through each release, LORNA SHORE continues to prove themselves to be an increasingly formidable force and a ferocious live proposition. 2017’s sophomore LP, Flesh Coffin showed a band that had moved beyond mere “deathcore” trappings and had evolved into a modern metal band, as uncompromising and accomplished as any of their contemporaries or influences. Topping their previous output with their third full-length and Century Media debut, Immortal was refined and perfected over a two-year period. Immortal marks the next stage in LORNA SHORE’s development as America’s newest extreme metal powerhouse.

“Lorna Shore is about to make you mosh around your house thanks to their new track ‘Death Portrait’.” – Metal Injection

“To anyone who wants solid and masterfully executed deathcore through and through, Immortal is your newest favorite.” – Metal Sucks

 “Lorna Shore is, indeed, a deathcore band, and Immortal proves that they just might be the very best.” – Metal Insider

INFECTED HUMANS RELEASE "UNEXPECTED TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCES"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

There is a new voice on the worldwide brutal death metal scene, a new guttural roar emanating from the Ecuadorian city of Cuenca. Infected Humans bring their own warped take on the heaviest of all metal’s many sub- genres and bastard children. These devoted servants of extremity are going to put their home country firmly on the death metal map when they unleash the maniacal, addictive insanity of Unexpected Traumatic Experiences!

You’ll find everything you’d expect from a brutal death metal album forming the bedrock of the songs that make up Unexpected Traumatic Experiences, but you’ll find an array of wicked twists as well. Songs like ‘Interstellar Torture’ epitomise the memorable, individual nature of Infected Humans’ particular brand of sonic savagery and album highlight ‘Chaotic Biological Organization’ satisfies and surprises in equal measure, with its hammering blast beats interspersed with bursts of the band’s very own brand of electroshock therapy. The album also includes three notable guest vocal contributions, with Ewan Lambert (Corpseflesh), Sonny Trujillo (Cadaverous Infest) and Pipo Castellanos (Cafeterasub) each bringing their own touch of terror to this dynamic and deadly debut.

On January 15th renowned label Gore House Productions will open the vial and send the spores of infection out into the world. This most aptly named album will deliver Unexpected Traumatic Experiences to all who brave its invitation to the lab. Prepare to be infected!

The heavily groovy modern metal will be familiar to existing fans of the band while encouraging new listeners to embrace them. This reintroduction will give metalheads a taste of what's to come while being able to stand on its own merit. Synastry shares their thoughts about the release:

“We are very excited to be able to release this EP at the tail end of 2020. It’s been a long, strange year for everyone, and we thought it was time to unleash these songs for everyone’s listening enjoyment. We have been working hard on getting the stars to align with the work we have created, and are looking to get back into everyone’s ears. The lyrical content is from an individual’s view out onto society, and the responsibility of the individual to create a better world.” 

This EP is just the start for Synastry who hopes they can bring their energetic live shows back to crowds far and wide post Covid times. 

Recommended for anyone who enjoys groove and melodic metal, especially those with an existing fondness for Within The Ruins, and Fear Factory.

SOMBRE ARCANE RELEASE VIDEO FOR "ANCESTRAL SEAT OF THE BAROVIAN SCOURGE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

US dungeon synth act SOMBRE ARCANE has unveiled their newest video for the track, "Ancestral Seat Of The Barovian Scourge." The song was released on 10/24 on the Wrought Records Halloween compilation entitled The Reliquary of Terror.  The video made its debut on October 30 at Decibel Magazine HERE:

Video Filming: Skyrise Aerial Solutions

Video Engineering / Production: Shane Hall

Video Set Design: Josh Pratt

Song Engineering / Production: Shane Hall

Phranick and Naginah of SOMBRE ARCANE perform a macabre ritual to summon the mists of Barovia as a means of conveyance to Castle Ravenloft.

This song is inspired by a playthrough of the Ravenloft Dungeons & Dragons module that the band played through during a campaign they have been playing together for about 8 years.

SOMBRE ARCANE:

Shane Hall (Phranick): Synths And Guitars

Josh Pratt (Naginah): Kantele

SOMBRE ARCANE hails from Massachusetts, and released their self-titled demo in August of 2018. One of the earliest American proponents of live dungeon synth, SOMBRE ARCANE has offered a number of rituals to the public, incorporating video, costume, and elaborate staging to make the audience feel like they are peering into the window of an alchemist’s workshop.

What others have said about SOMBRE ARCANE:

"Crafting their sound with synths and strings, SOMBRE ARCANE offers a well crafted journey through the dungeons, infusing their music with folk, fantasy ambient and balladry for a thoroughly immersive experience.“ 

- Adam Matlock of ‘Nahadoth’ 

"SOMBRE ARCANE are a dungeon synth duo who are trailblazing new paths in the genre. Hailed as one of the best live DS acts on the planet, the wizard Phranick and the bard Naginah put on a spectacular show filled with magic. Incorporating live medieval instruments into bombastic orchestral arrangements, their sound is immediately recognizable and unforgettable! “ 

- Jason Shook of ‘Guild of Lore’

“High in presentation and composition, this release is in the centre of a Venn diagram with dungeon synth on the left and a neo-folk ambient on the right.” - CorkonianHunger

“SOMBRE ARCANE is one of the most promising dungeon synth acts out there, and they’re not afraid to step outside the boundaries” -_NS_

DEMONSTEALER RELEASE NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO: "A FESTERING WOUND"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Sahil Makhija aka Demonstealer has released a brand new song and video off of his upcoming EP titled, 'And This Too Shall Pass' via his Facebook. 'No God will save you' screams Makhija halfway into this scathing, blastbeat-heavy ripper that channels Makhija's abject hatred for religion and all the ill it's spawned. Makhija adds, “It refers to humanity and how we're almost like a cancer on this planet; how we've created God, religion and blinded the masses with these man made creations.” The Festering Wound is now available to stream on Demonstealer's Facebook page [HERE] and YouTube [HERE].

Listen to/watch (and share) 'The Festering Wound' (Official Music Video) on YouTube

The 4-song EP is being self-released with the help of a crowd-funding campaign that Makhija personally set up in July earlier this year. It was the COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant lockdown in the country that provided Makhija with a new perspective and the inspiration to write new music. And This Too Shall Pass sees Makhija return to his absolute roots. All music on And This Too Shall Pass has been written, played and recorded by Makhija — making it truly a solo effort.

And This Too Shall Pass releases on 11th December, 2020. Pre-orders for the digital release are now available on the band’s Bandcamp [HERE]. The EP will be available on all streaming services including YouTube, Spotify and Apple Music.

Tracklist

EVANGELIST RELEASE "AD MORTEM FESTINAMUS" EP

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Polish Epic Doom group EVANGELIST will release Ad Mortem Festinamus on CD and limited edition vinyl (300 copies) December 18 on Nine Records.

Stream opening track "Perceval": ninerecords.bandcamp.com/track/perceval

In times of doom, EVANGELIST returns with songs of death and destruction. The band was first started in the spring of 2008, with inspiration mainly coming from the obscure epic metal scene in the U.S., epic doom metal pioneers and metal classics in general. Major lyrical inspiration came from the twisted minds of R.E. Howard, H.P. Lovecraft, history, religion and spirituality of the ages gone by.

Their debut album, In Partibus Infidelium, was recorded between 2009 and 2011 and released in June 2011 by PsycheDOOMelic Records. Their sophomore record, Doominicanes, was recorded between 2012 and 2013 and released in May 2013 by Doomentia Records. In October 2014, a collaboration with CAPILLA ARDIENTE troops was revealed in the form of the infamous Capilla Ardiente/Evangelist 12” split on which EVANGELIST delivered their own version of MAYHEM’S classic “Freezing Moon." In December 2018, after a short hiatus, their third album, Deus Vult, was released by Nine Records.

Almost one year later, recording sessions began on two new songs, as well as a rendition of one of MANILLA ROAD'S finest tracks, "Mystification." These three songs were paired with another three tracks recorded during the Deus Vult recording sessions, and resulting in the Ad Mortem Festimaus EP.

Stream the band's cover of MANILLA ROAD classic "Mystification" (a tribute to the late Mark Shelton) at youtu.be/2xMH14LSAiw.

"Several years in the making, the new Dread Sovereign is ready for the End of the World, which might be next year in case you didn't know! A bit more reckless and up-tempo than the previous releases, yet the template remains doom, 'Alchemical Warfare' just has a bit more Venom and Motorhead thrown into the mix.

DEMON KING RELEASE "THE FINAL TYRANNY"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Newly formed blackened technical death metal trio Demon King is eager to announce the release of their explosive EP, The Final Tyranny. Set for release on Friday, February 12th, 2021 via The Artisan Era. The otherworldly cover art was created by Justin si-Set Abraham known for his work with Equipoise, Inanimate Existence, Singularity, etc. 

Formed in 2019, Demon King is the comeback project of prominent original Enfold Darkness guitarist Matt Brown after stepping away from playing music for a number of years. He is joined by technical wizards Malcolm Pugh (Inferi, ex-Enfold Darkness) on Bass and Jack Blackburn (ex-Inferi, ex-Vital Remains, ex-Enfold Darkness) on Drums. Together the incredibly talented trio aims to be one of the reigning champs of the death metal world. 

Demon King's multi-faceted musical foundation is built upon each member's high level of skill along with their combined chemistry forged from playing in various bands together over the years. Both of those crucial factors intertwine to allow the group to create some truly masterful and ruthless music on The Final Tyranny. Across four dense tracks, The Final Tyranny deftly combines and shifts on a dime between technical death metal, black metal, and melodic death metal in order to create a sound all their own. 

Demon King - The Final Tyranny is strongly recommended for fans of Abigor, Arsis, Dimmu Borgir, Enfold Darkness, Inferi, Naglfar, Necrophagist, Obscura, Old Man’s Child.

*You can check out an early teaser video for The Final Tyranny HERE

Demon King's Matt Brown comments on the release of The Final Tyranny

"For this initial release, I wanted to showcase what I felt were the best elements of my writing during my time with Enfold Darkness...but stepped up and refined. In many ways, it’s a continuation of that early sound. It’s all fast and thrashy, yet lush with melody. Lyrically it’s similar too, with end-times eschatology being a major focus."

*Stay tuned for Demon King pre-orders, and an early single coming soon. 

Demon King - The Final Tyranny Tracklisting

1. Tyrannical Reign of the Deceiver

CANNIBAL ACCIDENT SIGNS WITH TIME TO KILL RECORDS FOR RELEASE OF NEW ALBUM

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Finnish grindcore merchants CANNIBAL ACCIDENT have today announced that they have signed to Italian label Time To Kill Records for the release of their new album.

After various splits, EPs and three impressively brutal albums, CANNIBAL ACCIDENT are getting ready to return to the scene stronger than ever.

Biography:

History so far.

In the beginning of 2007 Lenets and Kolkka were boozing in their hometown Turku and they ended up in a local rock club. There were several bands playing and the name of the game was grindcore. Yeah, the bands played well but something was missing. Where the hell were delicious mosh parts that f.ex. Napalm Death and S.O.D. used to have? To tell you the truth, if your mosh parts are good then your song will be memorable.

Fueled by this ambition Cannibal Accident was founded to bring you old school grindcore with quality mosh parts.

Cannibal Accident has shared the stage and toured with f.ex. the following awesome entities: Gutalax, Cannabis Corpse, Rotting Christ, Misery Index, Exhumed, Cumbeast, Torture Killer, Inferia, Lubricant, Solothus, Convulse, Galvanizer and many others.

2008 - Vesa B.D. Salonen joins C.A. as bass (player)

2010 - Heikki Raisio joins C.A. to kick ass to mouth

2011 - Kurwa Doktor "Polish gift to genital science" joins C.A. for oral duties

2012 - Lindén replaces Salonen

2015 - Suodenjärvi replaces Lindén

2018 - Wilkman replaces Lenets

Line-up 2020:

Kolkka - guitar

Wilkman - drums

All humans are created equal, women, children and men. Metal IS Family. We should support each other, as well as everyone that needs help in our communities. If you have a problem with our views, kindly see yourself out of our socials. We thank you for your time.”

REPAID IN BLOOD mixes the best of Death Metal and Metal-core creating their own unique genre: Geek Metal!

REPAID IN BLOOD is a metal band that started in 2006 in Sunnyvale, CA. The name was taken from a lyric off The Black Dahlia Murder’s first full length album, Unhallowed. The name is an expression of violence in its truest form, vengeance. Victor Hernandez and Jake Burrmann formed a band in high school, with different members coming and going along the way, eventually turning into what became REPAID IN BLOOD. Jake Burrmann and Juan Galvez are the last of the founding members, and yet, with the powerful vocals and live performances of Darrell Durham, along with the blistering leads of Patrick Small, REPAID IN BLOOD is a strong cohesive family.

REPAID IN BLOOD has worked the local scene with a strong fan base, played in three showcases at South By Southwest, numerous West Coast and Southwest tours and US tours. REPAID IN BLOOD are serious about the music they create, but always have fun doing so. From the "I Saw Zombies Eating Santa Claus" Xmas parody to a Lego stop motion, Clerks inspired, Jaws parody video, to a full puppet band video for a parody of Salt N Peppa’s “Push It”, releasing tour and behind the scenes blooper videos, using Archer or Stranger Things for a live opening, kid’s cereal, zombies, pop culture, comic books, Game Of Thrones, to peeing on you, you are guaranteed to take something away from REPAID IN BLOOD musically and live. 

REPAID IN BLOOD has one full length album, Born In A Lazarus Pit, which was released June 2014, with music videos released, national promotion, and press as well. REPAID IN BLOOD also has an earlier EP One Bullet Shy Of A Solution released August 2008 and more recently a second EP Terra Mourning in May 2017.

REPAID IN BLOOD have done full US tours: East Bound And Death Tour with thrashers Apothesary, The Repaid In Death Tour with Australian Death Metalers In Death..., The Split Personality Tour with Death Will Tremble, The Danger Zone Tour with Casket Robbery, and the massive No One Gets Out Alive Tour with In Death..., Casket Robbery and Bury The Rod which was a great success. REPAID IN BLOOD has shared the stage with All Shall Perish, Allegaeon, Betraying The Martyrs, Embryonic Devourment, Forbidden, Incite, Morta Skuld, Voices Of Ruin, Sacrificial Slaughter as well as so many others on the road.
