The Brooklyn power trio do metal the old school way, channeling the greats that preceded them to create something that is instantly familiar yet with a new, modern energy to it. On this particular track, vocalist/bassist Erica Stoltz explains, "'Lost at Sea' is about how we are drowning in excess here in the developed world. We are moving ever further away from a seven-generations perspective of our own existence, the effect it has on the future and how it is tied to the past."

The video was shot at the historic King's Theatre in Brooklyn, NY. Built in the 1920's, it is a visually stunning facility with ornate features that lend itself to the lyrical theme of opulence. The vast ceilings, bold carvings and beautiful stage and seats provide an epic atmosphere for the band's performance. Also starring in the video is fellow Brooklyn metaller, Tanya Finder of the band Shadowland, as the death-dealing fortune teller.

Rounded out by drummer Nathan Honor, the band state, "In a time where the world around you feels like it's aflame, when our heavy metal heroes are beginning to disappear to failing health or changing social norms, we, SANHEDRIN, stand here as a shining light through the dark. We are prepared to fly the flag of heavy metal in these trying and uncertain times and have only begun to show the world what we are capable of."

SANHEDRIN is slated for festival appearances across Europe and the US this year, starting with the "Slaves Of Light Tour," with German rockers Stallion, kicking of May 1st in Osnabruck, Germany.

Earlier this year SANHEDRIN released "Correction," the first single from Lights On. Stream Now and purchase Lights On at Metal Blade Records: metalblade.com/sanhedrin

BLOODGATE TO RELEASE "SOLACE IN MOURNING"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

BLOODGATE is excited to announce their forthcoming album Solace in Mourning, due out March 25th! From performing at underground basements shows to opening for the likes of AVENGED SEVENFOLD and VOLBEAT, BLOODGATE’s career is already jampacked with no signs of slowing. Experimenting with genre mixing, and following a number of line-up changes, the new album, Solace In Mourning, marks the next reincarnation of the hard-hitting heavy outfit.

"We at BLOODGATE are pleased to announce the release of our newest record, Solace in Mourning. With a revamped line up, it is our reintroduction to the world as we usher in a new era of cryptic mysticism."

BLOODGATE’s music is heavily inspired by mysticism, warfare, and fantasy elements. With their members stemming from such varied backgrounds -pop punk to grindcore and everything in-between, the quartet’s sound is permeated with an array of style influences. BLOODGATE deliver short, sharp explosive tracks; Solace In Mourning is a feverish collection of high impact energy, infused with groove riffs, demonic harsh vocals. “2020” brings a fury of vehemence in heavy instrumental form, before thrusting into the aggressive noise “Mirror Of Flesh”. Throwing their all into every track, BLOODGATE find a new perspective to offer with each song. “Death On The Horizon” brings lightning speed while “Tome of Blood” opens the door to the depths below.

Dive straight into the dark abyss with Solace In Mourning. The extreme intensity is a thrill for the senses with pounding heaviness and an abrasive edge creating a sheer display of power.

Line-up: 

Eric Bowers – drums

Scott Jorgensen – vocals

Zach Determan - guitar

Jessi Merrill - bass

PROGENY OF SUN RELEASE VIDEO FOR "WORTHLESS"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

To continue where Dark Wanderer EP left of last year, Progeny of Sun will release two new singles in the beginning half of 2022. Things are heating up as the new material will sound even more brutal than ever before. First single Worthless is released today and a stunning music video, directed by Doni Bacox, can be seen here: https://youtu.be/6oLGYdbBNZw 

The band comments:

"The other day while jamming together, Juha and Joni suddenly came up with a frame of a new song. Jaakko listened the demo and had to impose his own vision in order to take the credit of the whole song. During composing Jaakko managed to combine two separate ideas that weren't originally meant to go together. These ideas merged as one, forming what came out to be perhaps the juiciest track so far. Eventually, after "slight" pressuring, Niko made the vocals and struck gold with them. Even Tuomo was given an opportunity to recompose one part of the bass lines."

VOICES OF RUIN RELEASE VIDEO FOR "REACH TOWARD THE SKY"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

The Orange County, California-based melodic death metal quintet VOICES OF RUIN have unveiled the music video for “Reach Toward The Sky,” the latest single from their 2020 full-length and M-Theory Audio debut, “Path to Immortality.” The video clip - shot and edited by Vintersea bassist Karl Whinnery while both bands were on tour together during the Fall of 2021 – can be viewed at https://youtu.be/vb2rcQ85HAI

CD, digital, and limited-edition splatter vinyl editions of “Path to Immortality” are available for purchase at www.smarturl.com/vor

“We're very excited to release our new music video featuring live footage from the latest Darker Western Skies tour with Vintersea and Dawn of Ouroboros! It was pretty special to get back on the road and perform nightly after close to two years of not playing shows,” states singer Dave Barrett. “Being together with the boys and raging the stage was magical! 'Reach Toward The Sky' is one of the more dynamic songs we've ever released and this tour was our first time playing it live. Karl from Vintersea is a magician behind the camera and he did an excellent job capturing the debauchery and wild times out there on the road! From slamming beers and taking shots to shredding alongside Vintersea and Dawn of Ouroboros, the Darker Western Skies tour was a blast!”

Fans that missed VOICES OF RUIN's Fall 2021 tour with Vintersea and Dawn of Ouroboros – as well as those that want to return for another round - will have more opportunities to witness the band live very soon. VOICES OF RUIN will be participating in Metal Assault's 12-Year Anniversary Fest on Saturday, February 12th at Transplants Brewing Company in Palmdale, CA, as well as opening for Swedish melodic death metal legends Dark Tranquillity and Montreal death masters Kataklysm on Sunday, February 20th at 1720 Warehouse in Los Angeles, CA. The band will also be returning to the Wacken Metal Battle USA stage that they conquered with their victory in 2018, this time as headliners at the 2022 edition of Wacken Metal Battle USA: Orange County on Saturday, March 5th at Stages Bar in Santa Ana, CA, alongside fellow co-headliners and Southern California pagan metal greats, Helsott.

Since brothers Dave (vocals) and Tom Barrett (guitars) founded the group more than a decade ago, VOICES OF RUIN performed extensively in support of their two self-released albums, 2010's “Into Oblivion” and 2015's “Born From The Dark.” In 2019, the band returned to the studio to record “Path To Immortality” with former Soulfly/Machine Head guitarist Logan Mader (Gojira, SepticFlesh). The final product was unleashed to the metal masses in April 2020, and was praised by HeaviestofArt.com for being “a modern melodic death metal standard to strive for” and by DeadRhetoric.com for its “numerous standout moments” and “earworm propensities.” The music video for “Reach Toward The Sky” is the fourth video from “Path to Immortality” to be unveiled, following the lyric video for “I Am God,” which can be viewed at https://youtu.be/DOEPyH3WxA4; the concept video for “Carved Out,” which can be viewed at https://youtu.be/H2jsOgQPFaU; and the live performance video – filmed during the band's triumphant appearance at Wacken Open Air 2018 - for “The Undoing,” which can be viewed at https://youtu.be/7wB_wiw9GX0.

VOICES OF RUIN describe their sound as an epically-crafted blend of classic heavy metal and modern death metal that also pays homage to the traditional Scandinavian melodic death metal sound. In addition to winning Wacken Metal Battle USA in 2018, the group has supported Vader in North America and Japan, toured Europe with Internal Bleeding and Sacrificial Slaughter, and performed extensively in Southern California alongside a number of notable acts, including Morbid Angel, Trivium, Devildriver, Amorphis, Cattle Decapitation, Dying Fetus and Origin. The band has also organized the annual Ruinfest festival, a celebration of California's extreme metal scene that in the past has featured the likes of Fallujah, Exmortus, Pessimist, Skeletal Remains, Helsott and Letum Ascensus, and returned most recently in November 2021 with guest headliners Internal Bleeding.
