BURIAL IN THE SKY RELEASE "THE CONSUMED SELF"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Established progressive/technical death metal outfit Burial In The Sky is excited to announce the upcoming release of their third album, The Consumed Self. Out August 13th via Rising Nemesis Records. It is the follow-up to the group's well-received 2018 sophomore album, Creatio et Hominus.

Acclaimed visual artist Justin Abraham (Equipoise, Dessiderium, Inanimate Existence) was tapped to create the epic cover art for The Consumed Self. The album was produced, engineered, and mastered by Carson Slovak and Grant McFarland at Atrium Audio known for their work with Rivers of Nihil, August Burns Red, and Black Crown Initiate.

Active since 2013, the Philadelphia-based group has kept a steady pace on record and live over the years. With each new release, refining and expanding their wide-ranging take on progressive/technical death metal. This time around, the addition of new second guitarist Brad Hettinger, further contributions around from several members, and an impressive array of eclectic guest musician spots help elevate The Consumed Self into the group's finest hour yet.

The Consumed Self continues Burial In The Sky’s signature brand of atmospheric and often ethereal brand of technical/progressive death metal while pushing both their aggressive and cerebral centers of focus toward dazzling new heights. Making for an album that delivers on multiple fronts and has something to offer something for almost any death metal fan's tastes. Burial In The Sky - The Consumed Self is sure to be counted among the best albums of the year for progressive death metal.

The album will strongly appeal to fans of bands such as Black Crown Initiate, Fallujah, Rivers Of Nihil, Alustrium, and Virvum.

 

Burial In The Sky Band Statement Regarding The Consumed Self

“The Consumed Self is inspired by some of the great dystopian fantasies of the past. We wanted to create a world that felt real and tangible. With that, the music had to be digestible and convey a wide array of emotions. This took a lot of growth for us to accomplish. We had to become better musicians and storytellers to create The Consumed Self.”

CRYPT MONARCH RELEASE "THE NECRONAUT"

PRESS RELEASE:

Crypt Monarch

The Necronaut

Electric Valley Records

23 July 2021

Genre: Doom/Stoner Metal

Location: San José, Costa Rica

 

FFO: Acid King, Sleep, Belzebong, and Conan. 

“Rex Meridionalis”: It’s Psychedelic Baby Magazine Premiere || YouTube || Digital (Spotify, Deezer, Apple...)

Electric Valley Records presents Crypt Monarch’s debut LP, entitled The Necronaut; due out July 23rd digitally and on different variants of vinyl: Neon Green Splatter Black, Neon Pink, and Ultra LTD “Necro Edition”.

Invoked in mid-2020 by the members from Age of the Wolf and VoidOath, Crypt Monarch hails from San José, Costa Rica. The power trio’s self-labeled “necromantik stoner doom” style is replete with malevolent riffs in crushing intensity, groove-oozing atmosphere, and psychedelic pathways.

The debut album, The Necronaut, was recorded and produced by the band in a cabin in the woods during March/April 2021. A 36 minute, 3 song monolith of séance infused riffage and fuzz-fueled grooves, this record chronicles the voyage of a dishonored king brought back from the dead to destroy its warlock’s enemies.

The eerie lair has been disturbed, the doomed ruler is now awake and chained to slaughter.

ENTIERRO RELEASE LYRIC VIDEO FOR "THE PAST"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

New Haven (CT) - U.S. Heavy Metal band ENTIERRO have partnered with The Obelisk for the premiere of the lyric video for new single "The Past." The track is taken from forthcoming EP El Camazotz. Click the link below to check out the premiere!

"The Past" (Lyric Video Premiere)

theobelisk.net/obelisk/2021/05/27/entierro-el-camazotz-the-past-vid-premiere/

On June 18 ENTTIERRO will release the long awaited follow-up to their 2018 self-titled full-length. Entitled El Camazotz, after the Mayan bat god associated with night, death and sacrifice, the five-song EP represents a new chapter in the story of the band.

Pre-order:

entierro.bandcamp.com/album/el-camazotz

Recorded just prior to the pandemic at Studio Wormwood in Northeastern Connecticut under the engineering mastery of Dave Kaminsky, the songs of El Camazotz harken back to the NWOBHM and traditional heavy metal bands that they grew up listening to. 

This also marks the first truly collaborative effort with former Fates Warning guitarist Victor Arduini, who had joined the band just prior to the recording of their 2018 full length. On this release, he was an integral part of the writing process working alongside vocalist/bassist Christopher Beaudette (Jasta, NightBitch,) drummer Dave Parmelee (One Master) and second guitarist Chris Begnal making it a much more definitive presentation of their creative vision. Together, ENTIERRO is solidifying their ability to create songs that manifest the crushing sound they hope metalheads can continually find inspiration in.

Track Listing

1. The Penance

2. The Tower

3. The Past

4. El Camazotz

TERRAVOID RELEASE "ECTOGENESIS" EP

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Oliver Palmquist (singer of the Death Metal band PHIDION)) teamed up with guitarist Nino Vukovik (guitarist of Technical Speed Metal bands IMMACULATE and TYRANEX) and after two years of development, they produced their debut EP, released on their own record label Liminal Spaces Distribution.

"Ectogenesis" takes you on a sonic journey through a dark, dystopian Science Fiction world where technology eventually overtakes humanity and nature once again claim its throne in the life cycle. Musically the album takes you back to the heavy and dark Prog Metal, that swept the world in the mid-'00s with bands like NEVERMORE, COMMUNIC and STRAPPING YOUNG LAD.

Swedish progressive metal band Terravoid also adds a layer of eerie atmosphere and keyboard passages, much like JOHN CARPENTER and LUSTMORD.

 

Line-up:

Oliver Palmquist - Vocals, Samples, Programming

Nino Vukovik - Guitars
