DEMIRICOUS RELEASE NEW SINGLE: "SMOKE CHASER"

PRESS RELEASE:

Indiana death/thrash band DEMIRICOUS have unleashed their song "Smoke Chaser". The track is taken from their highly anticipated album III: Chaotic Lethal, which is out on May 13, 2022. The song will be available on all streaming platforms this coming Friday April 29th.

The band comments: 

“From a writing standpoint, we took a bit of a different approach on this one. With the chorus, we wanted to open it up with a huge melodic riff, and a catchy, anthemic hook. And to counteract the catchiness of the chorus and melody, we wanted to cap it with one of the ugliest moments on the entire record. “Smoke Chaser” lyrically is about how humanity has a false sense of relevance, as a result  of technology. We are all addicted, and constantly chasing something we will never actually obtain.”

Rising from the depths of the abyss, DEMIRICOUS are preparing to unleash their most monstrous record yet III: Chaotic Lethal. The death/thrash quartet from Indianapolis, Indiana, initially formed in 2005 and released two successful full lengths gaining international regard. Following an extended hiatus, the outfit are making an impactful return. 

“It’s been 15 years since we’ve released a record. We are so unbelievably proud of this one, and this is the DEMIRICOUS record we’ve always wanted to make. Prepare yourselves. It’s a fucking monster.”

DEMIRICOUS delve into heavier instrumentation and sinister moods, releasing a plethora of hard-hitting sounds across the tracks. Immersing eerily into a desolate landscape, “Unconditional Hate” smothers the senses. As guitars begin to screech and grapple through the murkiness, it’s not long before the sheer speed and power of DEMIRICOUS breaks through. Demonic low tones dominate the instrumentation and aggressive vocals. From the high fuelled groove rhythms of and blast beats of “Smoke Chaser”, to the unearthly doom and gloom of “Chaotic Lethal”, DEMIRICOUS venture across realms of dynamic metal influences creating a thrilling and hauntingly theatrical experience. The album operates in a cyclical nature seeing the final track, “Faith Crime” withdraw to the void from which III: Chaotic Lethal emerged. 

III: Chaotic Lethal marks a monumental milestone. It is an epic collection of tracks exploring a dark narrative of the barbaric and grotesque. DEMIRICOUS’s sound is revived and restored, as the band have evolved into their next chapter.

WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING ABOUT DEVIL MASTER!

“When this band locks in on a heavy riff, as they do near the end of the song, they sound like they’re ready to take your head off.” STEREOGUM

"mystical and darkly numinous" CONSEQUENCE

"as raw, rippin', and evil as you expect from this band" BROOKLYN VEGAN

“rife with tasty licks and crumbly black-metal textures” REVOLVER

"Always ones for fun and EVIL, Devil Master deliver their unique brand of black metal mixed with punk yet again on their second LP. There’s plenty of GISM here, but also fair amounts of Celtic Frost and Mayhem.” DECIBEL

“one of metal's strongest contemporary forces" HEAVIEST OF ART

“‘The Vigour of Evil’ could have appeared somewhere on ‘Ride the Lightning’'s B-side as much as it could have on ‘Garage Days Re-revisited’, whereas ‘Acid Black Mass’ sounds like Satan jamming with Hüsker Dü before the song makes a glorious step in its closing moments to create an image of Nomeansno tearing through copies of Fangoria instead of The Economist.” METAL INJECTION

SKOTOSE RELEASE "SPIRIT OF MADNESS" VIDEO

PRESS RELEASE:

SKOTOSE, Shapeshifter PR and Craig Rossi (Drift Into Black, Days in the Abyss, Ex-Grey Skies Fallen) present the lyric video for Spirit of Madness. The song appears on SKOTOSE’s King of Human Sacrifice Demo. It will also be featured on the upcoming full-length (details coming soon on that release). 

The video was created by Craig Rossi. The song pays homage to Ancient Greece and the Spirit of Madness, Lyssa. It features iconic imagery of Ancient Rome and Greece including depictions of Lyssa, Bachuss, Dionysus, and their wild rites. Spirit of Madness is not only an ode to Ancient Greece, who wrote extensively on the Spirit of Madness, it symbolizes the agony and ecstasy of mania. It symbolizes rage, rabies, lust, passion and having no inhibitions.

SKOTOSE bassist and lead lyricist comments on the song:

“I am very proud to present this video. I have had visions of what this song represents and Craig Rossi took that vision and made it heavenly. It’s like being on Mount Olympics with the gods! His graphic work and interpretation of the lyrics went beyond what I expected, and he created a masterpiece!  He also made the song sound better by equing it.

He definitely hit a home run, but if you are familiar with his work you will see this is only one out many projects. Rossi makes all his own videos for his project Drift Into Black and his new Science Fiction project, Days in the Abyss. The first Days in the Abyss video will launch into outer space on May 13. Be on the lookout for a press release from Shapeshifter PR.”

ENRAGEMENT RELEASE "ATROCITIES"

PRESS RELEASE:

Recent Rising Nemesis Records signees Enragement are excited to announce the upcoming release of their third full-length, Atrocities. The album will be released on April 29th through Rising Nemesis Records. 

Active since 2006, Enragement took their time in becoming the group they are now slowly, only getting to their current stage musically upon the 2014 release of their debut album, Omnimalevolence of Man. Afterward, the band dropped a well-received follow-up, Burned, Barren, Bloodstained, in 2017 via Finnish label Inverse Records. After many years of slow yet steady musical evolution, the band has finally found a new home in Rising Nemesis Records where they seek to put out their best material to date.

With Atrocities, Enragement delivers a hybrid approach to brutal and slam death metal that draws just as much from the technical side of the genre as it does the necessary sheer brutality and absurd heaviness the style is built upon. The end result is more intricate and deadlier than many of their peers, without losing sight of the core framework brutal/slam death metal exists within when done well. From a thematic perspective, Atrocities again chooses to eschew the normal focus on fantastical horror movie-type brutal lyrics in favor of discussing the all too real horrors of human wars and conflicts in the myriad of ways they impact all of our lives.

For those seeking to find the best of the upcoming brutal-minded death metal efforts of 2022, Enragement - Atrocities is what you're looking for. Enragement - Atrocities will appeal to fans of bands the group cites as sources of inspiration including Dying Fetus, Analepsy, Abominable Putridity, Wormed, Katalepsy, and Disentomb.

 

Enragement comments

"Hideous portrayals of what lies beneath civilization, Atrocities describes monstrous true events throughout the history of mankind, from ancient to recent. Each song is a representation of acts whose cruelty extends beyond imagination – acts that seem to occur more frequently than we dare believe. This is the epitome of human suffering.

Musically, Enragement combines the intensity of brutal, technical, and slamming death metal with twists and turns from a diverse range of other extreme metal genres. Depending on the song, a perceptive listener can distinguish the cacophony of black metal, the grim atmosphere of doom metal, and the sheer fury of grindcore intricately weaved into the neck-breaking foundation of death metal.

No matter how unthinkably gruesome they may seem, each song on Atrocities is based on true events. Regardless of how deep you dive into imaginary evil, fantasy never overcomes the sickness of reality. The malevolence of man knows no boundaries."

About

On 23rd April, Southern Lord shall release the debut full-length album from The Lord, Forest Nocturne, first as a special LP Record Store Day release!

Forest Nocturne sees Anderson taking cues from legendary film composers: John Carpenter and Bernard Hermann, in order to create cinematic landscapes which are heavy with tension, and offset by the injection of lethal doses of early 90s Scandinavian Death Metal - with Attila Csihar (of notorious Norwegian black metal band Mayhem) lending his putrid vocals to final track ‘Triumph of the Oak’.

For Forest Nocturne, Anderson worked with renowned producer Brad Wood. Dan Seagrave's epic and fantastical style is instantly recognizable on the album's stunning artwork, something which seems to depict an ancient and unknowable force in the woodlands. Forest Nocturne is described by Anderson as “the music of the night”, but inspired by imagery conjured on daytime hikes, and majestic and beautiful trees, which he sees as survivors - and perhaps the last known connection that we have to an ancient world, and acting as a connector between past, present and future of the human race and of our time on this planet.

TZOMPANTLI RELEASE "TLAZCALTILIZTLI"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Tlazcaltiliztli

by Tzompantli

Tracklist:

1.Yaohuehuetl 01:18

2.Tlatzintilli 04:33

3.Tlazcaltiliztli 04:29

4.Eltequi 04:40

5.Ohtlatocopailcahualuztli 04:17

6.Tlamanalli 05:52

7.Yaotiacahuanetzli 07:37

A Tzompantli, in bygone days, was a rack used to display human skulls, often of enemies or sacrifices, in several Mesoamerican civilizations. In 2022, Tzompantli is a beyond crushing Death Doom war march built on a bedrock of Native / Indigenous themes, rituals and history, illuminating the splendor, brutality and despair within.

Nearly three years after the band’s self-released EP, Tzompantli’s debut full length presents the first smoke-conjured specter to manifest materially. ‘Tlazcaltiliztli’, a ritual ceremony that translates to; ‘nourishing the fire and sun with blood’, is imbued with the spirit of Native inspiration that dwells deep within the heart and soul of the project and is skillfully weaved into a traditional bludgeoning framework of spine-severing savagery and melancholic anguish. On the ritualistic ‘Eltequi’ (to cut the chest open and extract the heart as an offering) the band’s unification of native / folk instrumentation and heaviness becomes one in the same, opening vast new horizons for where this sound can go.

‘Tlazcaltiliztli’ is dedicated, and an offering, to the indigenous peoples, nations & tribes of the North, South, East & West of the American continents. It marks a fearsome and spirited new vision for the Death Metal underground.

About

Following up their hugely respected 2 demos (also available as a compilation) and fairly recent 7”, CHAOTIAN are back to release ultimate Death Metal barbarity into the underground in the form of their debut full length. Storming into life with a rotten amalgamation of putrescent riffing and blastbeats, the instrumental unity of this Danish titan is a juggernaut of pure filth. It is telling when a band can have those super groovy pinch harmonic laden riffs and not making them sound like all the others. This may seem a weirdly specific observation (perhaps a guitarist just being a guitarist) but it makes all the difference with heaviness, intensity and also the catchiness on the records. When met with the sewer-spewing vocals and weird dissonant spasms in the music, it doesn’t take long to recognise this will be a truly warped and maniacally brutal experience of Death Metal might.

Interlinking primitive hooks that grasp you by the throat then transcend into these weird effects or spacious riffs, there’s nothing predictable about the album yet it has that familiar feeling that all good Death Metal has where it feels a bit daunting, unnerving and yet you cannot escape it. Obviously Denmark and this trio does not let the scene down. Amazingly this small country seems to have so much diversity in their rotten underground movement and CHAOTIAN are a shining example who embody the grotesqueries, masterful songwriting and tight musicianship that has become associated with this otherwise pretty and peaceful nation. It explains that mysterious gurgling from the sewers at least!

Bludgeoning, cavernous and ultimately otherworldly, CHAOTIAN masterfully combine the cerebral and cosmic with brutish, old school music that is damned heavy and doesn’t feel pretentious nor directionless. Their debut LP is not just as strong as their previous works, but a more refined and complete vision, showcasing the bands full potential (so far)…

THLURM RELEASE "THE THLURM MUST DIE & DUNGEON SCUM"

PRESS RELEASE:

Thlurm

The Thlurm Must Die & Dungeon Scum

Wise Blood Records

29 April 2022

What in the hellish fuck is THLURM? The word almost gets stuck on your tongue like a stubborn acid tab. THLURM is the curious moniker of the black/punk/death/grind solo project created in the crypts of Indiana by Austin Sipes.

You can padlock your doors and bar your basement windows, but THLURM will still infiltrate your consciousness when Wise Blood Records releases the project’s first two demos on April 29th. The Thlurm Must Die is the band’s initial snarl of activity. Picture DEVIL MASTER’s slaytanic surf mutated with RUDIMENTARY PENI’s DNA and the septic splatter from ‘80s Troma movies. The most recent demo Dungeon Scum submerges their sound in even more blackened slime. But the raw recordings reveal a project in evolutionary growth; a formidable foe growing stronger.

THLURM’s demo release is part of Wise Blood’s demo series to support up and coming regional artists. Get toxic wasted with THLURM and infect your friends with some lethal blackened punk.

DEMONICAL RELEASE "MASS DESTROYER"

PRESS RELEASE:

Mass Destroyer

by Demonical

Tracklist:

1.We Conquer The Throne - We Conquer The Throne 03:05

2.Sun Blackened 03:32

3.Fallen Mountain 04:52

4.Wrathspawn 03:36

5.Dödsmarsch 03:56

6.Lifeslave 05:55

7.Cemented In Ire 03:53

8.By Hatred Bound 03:42

Struck by a burst of inspiration, DEMONICAL indulged in a creative spree immediately after the release of their antecedent offering, "World Domination"; and with expertise worthy of death metal veterans, shaped it into "Mass Destroyer." Developed in less than two years, the album reflects the energy that spawned its creation, and keeps to the Swede's HM2-beaten track, promising a few twists along the way. Adorned in an old fashioned attire, "Mass Destroyer" packs a gruesome punch, embodies organic sounding and delivers a truly fiendish experience from well-seasoned old-school death-dealers.

"The outcome is here, our seventh full-length and another vicious Demonical assault of Stockholm-style death metal madness and beyond," the band comments. "Once again and as always, we wanted to crawl back in time and explore the early days of death metal but with traces and hints of various other metallic subgenres."

Glashuset and Sellnoise Studios were used for recording with Johan Hjelm and Jonas Arnberg behind the helm, while Karl Daniel Liden mixed and mastered the album at his Tri-Lamb Studios. Mark Riddick (Absu, Arsis) designed the cover artwork.

About

New album "Summoning The Cataclysm" of Pakistani death metal band Azaab is out now!

Azaab is a 5-piece death metal band based in Islamabad, Pakistan. The band was formed in 2016 out of love for both old school and modern death metal. However, the core of the band has known each other for many years with members playing together in various projects. Having written a heap of material, Shahab Khan (guitars) called upon his old bandmates Waqar and Afraz to take on bass and guitar duties respectively. Being the only Death Metal vocalist around at the time it was a no brainer for Saad to join the band as the front man. After writing an albums worth of music Shahab and Afraz decided to enlist Indonesian drummer, Adhytia Perkasa from legendary act SiksaKubur to record drums for the album, adding Southeast Asian aggression and flair to the music.

Straddling the grey areas between old school and technical, melodic and brutal, "Summoning The Cataclysm" is an earthquake of different influences blended together through proficient musicianship. The lyrical themes span topics such as horror, politics, human nature, the end of days, war and even sci-fi. Structurally, the songs follow unconventional paths, shifting tempos and amalgamating the different sonic influences along the way. The music depicts an ominous and vile atmosphere, using both harmonic and dissonant progressions with the blast beats, as well as key changes and even some more traditional melodies. Adhytias percussion adds the perfect backdrop to the engaging guitar-work while Saad's deep growls are reminiscent of the classic days of brutal death metal. Throughout the 9 songs, Azaab delivers something for all death metal fans. For fans of Morbid Angel, Vader, Death, Decapitated, Nile, Abysmal Dawn, Cannibal Corpse. Artwork by Ardha Lepa.

About

The sixth full-length album of In Twilight’s Embrace.

47 minutes of restless, haunting and unorthodox Morbid Rock.

Profane and profound at the same time, “Lifeblood” is the band’s own ceremony of opposites.

With equal reverence to the ways of Black Metal of Death from up North, and catchy rock of the decades gone past, but never losing the adventurous nerve, the album shines as their most deliberate statement.

ABSTRACTED RELEASE "ATMA CONFLUX"

PRESS RELEASE:

Band: Abstracted

Album: Atma Conflux

Country: Brazil

Genre: Prog Death Metal

Label: M-Theory Audio

Release date: April 15, 2022

ABSTRACTED was formed in the band's hometown of Sao Paolo, Brazil in 2014. The group was initially birthed from the ashes of Nyth, a previous band that Rosano Matiussi (vocals/guitars) and Guilherme Nolasco (guitars) had been involved with. After their first live performance – rounded out by drummer Alexandre Dantas and then-bassist Allen Lordaro – the new group entered the studio to record an album showcasing a sound that was birthed by a love for bands that balanced metallic intensity with a propensity to stretch the progressive boundaries of the genre.

ABSTRACTED took their name from a song by Swedish melodic death metal greats Scar Symmetry. Influences from other European acts such as Necrophagist and Gojira, American bands such as The Faceless and Between The Buried And Me, and genre giants such as Death and Coroner all formed the basis for the sound that the band explored on their thrilling 2015 debut EP, “Ophidian.” The recording saw new bassist Riverton Vivela enter the picture and featured guest appearances from Allegaeon guitarists Michael Stancel and Greg Burgess. The group continued to build their name in the years that followed while balancing scholastic pursuits with live appearances on festivals throughout their native country.

ABSTRACTED began recording their debut full-length, “Atma Conflux,” in 2018, and continued writing, crafting, and producing the record throughout 2019 and 2020. The new album sees the group – which recently welcomed keyboardist Carol Claro – integrating synthesizers and orchestral keyboards into their already-expansive sound. With their lineup now fully solidified, a new album ready and live performances imminent soon, ABSTRACTED is poised to unleash their sound to the masses in 2021. The first taste of the scintillating sounds to be found on “Atma Conflux” was revealed earlier this year with the music video for “Decree of Sunlight” (featuring guest vocals by Mike Semesky (Raunchy, Interloper), which can be viewed at https://youtu.be/msJX0ZQzeiM.

ABSTRACTED is:

Rosano Matiussi (vocals/guitars)

Guilherme Nolasco (guitars)

Riverton Vivela (bass)

Alexandre Dantas (drums)

Carol Claro (keyboards)
