Today Italian death metallers ACROSS THE SWARM premiere the lyric video of new single "The Friction". Watch it below!
ACROSS THE SWARM have announced their new album "Projections" will finally drop on September 4th 2020 via Time To Kill Records. Get ready to enjoy all the madness!
"Projections" was originally scheduled for release in April, but owing to the Coronavirus epidemic that was hitting Italy and the rest of the world, Time To Kill Records decided to postpone the release.
The album was produced by Simone Mularoni and Simone Bertozzi at Domination Studios (Rhapsody, Labyrinth, Gory Blister) and mixed by Steve Wright (Dying Fetus, Misery Index). All songs feature Raphael Saini (Iced Earth, Cripple Bastards) on drums.
"Projections" tracklist:

07. Motionless
Formed in 2013, ACROSS THE SWARM's exhilarating brand of death metal and charged live shows have quickly earned them a reputation as one of the most exciting acts to emerge from the Italian metal scene.
The group's complex and dynamic sound along with their resonating live performances helped the band quickly rise to prominence. Following the release of their self-titled EP in December 2013, they took to the road sharing the stage with acts such as Fleshgod Apocalypse, The Modern Age Slavery, Electrocution, Hideous Divinity and Hate.
In 2016 the band released the "Waiting for the Hyenas" single to considerable acclaim. It wasn't long before they caught the eye of Time To Kill Records who welcomed them to their roster. The band's new album "Projections" will be released in spring 2020. Its diverse sound defies categorization while delivering a blend of aggressive attitude, emotive expression and modern flair, garnering a range of stylistic comparisons from classics like Suffocation to modern heavy hitters such as Despised Icon and Decapitated.
With their new epic science-fiction based album, AEONS CONFER lets huge celestial bodies, driven by the dark twin star of the sun, penetrate deep into the planet's surface. Following the dystopian concept album SYMPHONIES OF SATURNUS, the metal band from Hamburg, Germany, founded by brothers Nils and Simon Wrobel, breaks through like a wave of numerous gigantic asteroids on a catastrophic course of destruction with ZERO ELYSIUM.
The completely self-produced album by Simon Wrobel, in which a protagonist encounters a special scientific phenomenon with which he wants to save earth from a superior force from space, combines fast, technical guitar riffs at the highest level, brute blast and double bass attacks, orchestral passages and icy industrial fragments, as well as bloodcurdling aggressive shouting and clear, melodious singing. As with SYMPHONIES OF SATURNUS, AEONS CONFER uses sci-fi elements as well as a futuristic soundscape as an essential part of the lyrics.
The ones who have witnessed the live force of AEONS CONFER on festivals like Summerbreeze (DE), Tuska (FI), Metaldays (SVN) as well as with countless club gigs, will be looking forward to the energetic live performance of ZERO ELYSIUM. AEONS CONFER is exemplary for aggressive sci-fi orotundity on stage just as on record, which not only fans of extreme metal styles will be overwhelmed by.
AFFLICTION VECTOR: Italian black-death metallers featuring current and former members of Grime and The Secret to release "Death Comes Supreme" debut EP via Argento Records.
AFFLICTION VECTOR has been conceived as an introspective exploration by Ans in 2018. After the dissolution of Ooze and his separation from Grime, the artist decided to embrace a solitary journey through his own inner demons, choosing isolation and his dissolving mental health as a fuel for his creative flame.
In 2019 drummer Christian Musich (The Secret, Grime) joined the project, projecting his primordial percussive ferocity into the compositions and solidifying the line up.
Inspired by masters like Mayhem, Bolt Thrower and Teitanblood, AFFLICTION VECTOR regurgitates its influences into a completely new, unique, self-devouring Death and Black Metal magma that annihilates every boundary between nightmare and reality.
“Death Comes Supreme” is a spirit-possessed descent into suffering without any expectation of catharsis or cleansing. It’s the sound of an artist abandoning his mind into his own inner chaos, a realm dominated by demons.
"Death Comes Supreme" will be unleashed upon mankind via Argento Records on 25th September 2020.
The album's first single, "Voiceless Prediction", is now streaming (check below).
