FULCI RELEASE "EXHUMED INFORMATION"

PRESS RELEASE:

Acclaimed Italian death metal force FULCI once again conspires with Time To Kill Records to release the band’s third full-length album, on July 23rd 2021.

The new FULCI album, entitled "Exhumed Information", continues the paradigmatic experience of the band as a tribute to (cult Italian film director) Lucio Fulci’s filmography. The album is a concept based on the film "Voices from Beyond” (1991). This is not one of the most established and praised Fulci’s works, having actually been made in the final (low budget) phase of his career, yet it is still a very interesting giallo / horror enhanced by a peculiar dark aura.

Once again, FULCI draws inspiration not only from the death metal genre and greats like early Cannibal Corpse, Obituary and Bolt Thrower, but the macabre thrills of 80's horror soundtracks as well (Fabio Frizzi, John Carpenter, Goblin).

"Exhumed Information" is a very intriguing chapter in FULCI’s discography, as the album has been structured in two parts that explore all the facets of the FULCI sound. The A-side is purely death metal while the B-side has been conceived as a movie soundtrack. All the synth parts were written and performed specifically for FULCI by the electro / soundtrack project TV-CRIMES. This side in particular embodies a reverberating sense of eeriness, danger and fear: the brooding sound feels dangerously unsettling, lacing its churning atmosphere with catchy melodies that travel right through your ears to your central nervous system.

"Exhumed Information" was recorded at Till Deaf Recording Studios by Ando Ferraiuolo. Mastering was entrusted to Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Cirith Ungol, Tomb Mold). The cover artwork was designed by SoloMacello (Sadist, Elvenking, Black Rainbows). Layout and packaging design by Ascionemagro studios.

The single "Glass" is the first taste of the collaboration between TV-CRIMES and FULCI. The track was inspired by one of the key elements of the film "Voices From Beyond".

For now, the mastermind behind TV-CRIMES wishes to remain anonymous.

Check out "Glass" at THIS LOCATION.

ARTACH RELEASE LYRIC VIDEO FOR "SHE GATHERS LEAVES"

PRESS RELEASE:

St. John's Newfoundland is home to some of the most unforgiving, bleak, and snowiest weather in the country and local black metal act Artach uses that grey atmosphere as an inspiration for their raw and epic music.

Last year, Artach released a debut album “Chronicles of a Black Winter'' and this year, will follow it up with “Sworn to Avenge''. The second single from the upcoming release is “She Gathers Leaves”, being presented in a lyric video. The single is more mystical and pagan than the other tracks on the album, as they explain:

“The music has a bit of a gothy feel in places and that leads to having some lyrics about witchy subject matter.” 

They go on, to comment on the album:

“The music on the album is a frigid mixture of topics about nature and how it meets and interacts with the darkness of humankind. The desolation of the world, the planet, and the repeated failure of society to evolve to a place where we are a part of nature and not brutish subjugators of everything in our path.”

Coming from the coldest, windiest, snowiest, foggiest city in Canada, Artach’s music is heavily influenced by nature and even takes after the bleak climate they are surrounded by. “Sworn to Avenge” is an inescapable, cold and at times unhinged grimness. Raw aggression tempered with bouts of melody evoking the grandmasters of the genre while incorporating first and second wave black metal influences.

Raw and epic black metal, Artach is recommended listening for fans of Immortal, Celtic Frost, and Darkthrone. 

The lyric video for “She Gathers Leaves” can be seen and heard via its premiere on NoCleanSinging HERE.

“Sworn to Avenge” is being released on June 25th via Depressive Illusions and is available for pre-order / save at the following links: DepressiveIllusions.com, Artach.bandcamp.com, Amazon, Spotify.

PSYCHIC PAWN TO RELEASE "EULOGY: THE COMPLETE ANTHOLOGY"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

"PSYCHIC PAWN were gruesome maniacs with tons of technical flair. One of the earliest Cacophonous releases, the Americans’ only album "Decadent Delirium" was a thrilling rush of untutored aggression and vein-popping fretwork that, with hindsight, clearly paved the way for Death Metal’s creative rejuvenation in the early 21st century. Brilliantly twisted stuff and a telling statement of intent from Cacophonous." (Dom Lawson - Metal Hammer)

PSYCHIC PAWN:

Bobby Chavez: Vocals & Bass

Micha Kite: Guitars

Victor Morell: Guitars

Steve Dorssom: Drums

 

THRASHBACK RECORDS is pleased to announce that this May we will be releasing a 2-CD collection from the Phoenix, AZ based Death Metal quartet PSYCHIC PAWN titled "Eulogy: The Complete Anthology".

Formed in 1989, PSYCHIC PAWN would release two highly acclaimed demos, "Expedient Demise" in 1991 and "Wake Of Entity" in 1992. "Wake Of Entity" would catch the attention of England's Cacophonous Records and would release the three track 7" E.P. "Disgorged Suppuration" in late 1993.

In 1993 Cacophonous Records would sign the band and release their debut album "Decadent Delirium" November of 1994 (produced by Bill Metoyer) to much acclaim. Unfortunately this would be the bands only album release. After the demise of PSYCHIC PAWN the members would go on to form other acclaimed bands such as BORN OF FIRE and IMAGES OF EDEN.

"Eulogy: The Complete Anthology" compiles all of the bands studio recordings with remastering handled by Rob Colwell at Bombworks Sound. Includes a 16-page booklet with archival photo's and fliers, and a new interview with guitarist Micha Kite conducted by Jon Norberg of Contaminated Tones Web Zine.

LIMITED EDITION CD PRESSING OF 500 UNITS WORLD WIDE...

FOR FANS OF: Malevolent Creation, Morbid Angel, Solstice, Disincarnate

UNDERBALL RELEASE "THE BEST IS YET TO CUM"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Italian Thrash/Hardcore band Underball set July 16 as international release date for their debut album "The Best Is Yet To Cum"! The first Single "John Von Lovers" is now available on Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/album/3c6GlHc5OTdwtN81X9O2fu and on Youtube here: https://youtu.be/zWAjlCdq8io.

Album artwork and tracklist are as follows:

01 - John Von Lover

02 - Squirt On My Face

03 - Dwarfs

04 - Dildo

05 - Milf

06 - CannonBall Dookie

07 - Deadland

08 - Expired Beer

09 - Infection

10 - Underball

The Underball project was founded from the need of five friends to indulge in unorthodox practices and play at very high volume with the precise intention of reviving an increasingly divided and emulative musical circuit.

Dipping into different shades of Metal subgenres, Underball’s members make their looks and explicit themes their stong point, quickly distinguishing themselves for their shocking live performances.

Thanks to the five musicians’ powerful sound and experience, Underball soon came to share the stage with national and international artists such as Today Is the Day, Anvil, Insanity Alert, Negative Approach, Necrodeath, Impact and many others.

After several tours around Italy, the quintet is about to present its first studio work in the coming months, with the promise of delivering the same power as the live performances in this full-length debute.

Metal, spandex, glitter, sex and bad manners are about to collide and explode at the highest volume.
