BEHEMOTH RELEASE "OV MY HERCULEAN EXILE" VIDEO


PRESS RELEASE:

BEHEMOTH, the high priests of extreme metal, have announced their 12th studio album, Opvs Contra Natvram, their most thought-provoking and arresting collection to date. The album is set for release on September 16 via Nuclear Blast. Pre-order or pre-save the album here: https://behemoth.bfan.link/opvs-contra-natvram


The video for Ov My Herculean Exile has been directed by Zuzanna Plisz. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/092uOnSTnyI


The ten chapters of fury that make up Opvs Contra Natvram were written and recorded over the course of a very strange year for the globe — a situation which only heightened the level of craft seen in these 43 minutes and 15 seconds of searing wrath. As with previous studio outings, Opvs… was produced by BEHEMOTH, with mixing handled by acclaimed studio legend Joe Barresi (Nine Inch Nails, Tool, QOTSA, Alice in Chains).

Renowned for his meticulous attention to detail and absolute creative control of BEHEMOTH's world, frontman and band visionary, Adam "Nergal" Darski reveled in the depressurized environment afforded by the pandemic. It meant that for nearly the first time since the band's inception over 30 years ago, there was no deadline to observe, allowing for a nearly unprecedented level of attention to the process of writing and recording. 

Beyond any confines of genre, BEHEMOTH have grown to become nothing less than the personification of rebellion, individuality, and unflinching self-expression informed by a literate worldview and worldliness that's resulted in a locking of horns with everything from the mainstream press to the Polish Catholic church — most notably manifesting in Nergal's trial for blasphemy in 2010 that only served to expose the deep-seated hypocrisies that his music seeks to challenge.

"The album title means going against the current," Nergal states. "It's the negative of the values and morals and ethics that I stand against. I've seriously been wrestling with destructive tendencies in pop culture — cancel culture, social media, and tools which I feel are very dangerous weapons in the hands of people who are not competent to judge others. That's something which I find very destructive and disturbing — and extremely limiting coming from an artists' perspective. This is my middle finger to that. There's a song on the record called 'Neo-Spartacvs.' Spartacus was one of the most iconic rebels in history who went against the most powerful empire of all time. In the end, it's me screaming, 'I Am Spartacus, and so are you!' I want to spark that flame of rebellion. If something seems wrong then stand up to it!"


The tracklist reads as follows:

Post-God Nirvana

Malaria Vvlgata

The Deathless Sun

Ov My Herculean Exile

Neo-Spartacvs

Disinheritance

Off To War!

Once Upon A Pale Horse

Thy Becoming Eternal

Versvs Christvs

DRAGONBREED RELEASE LYRIC VIDEO "SINISTER OMEN"


PRESS RELEASE:

On 22 April, Dragonbreed released their debut album "Necrohedron", a band whose classic 90s-inspired melodic death metal is not only a mix-up of Suidakra and Graveworm. While the previously released video clip for "The Undying" shows the band during their studio recordings, the band now follows up with another video, "Sinister Omen", which pays tribute to the "silent" sixth band member, so to speak, and puts the lyrics as well as the artwork of the album in the foreground. Both come from the creative mind of cover artist Kris Verwimp, who was able to realize a concept story with this album, which had been slumbering in his drawer for a long time and fitted Dragonbreed like a glove. Sinister Omen" is now available on the MDD YouTube channel. Of course, the album is also available everywhere where there is good music.

ANCESTHOR is basically one of Mexico's best-kept secret! Yes, we all know about the tourist destination, the cartels of all sorts and the friendly people... but what about their Metal scene? Their gigantic metal scene is an ocean of infinity and diversity... but as everywhere else, some amazing bands with amazing albums are still riding under the radar of the bigger players of the music business. ANCESTHOR's one of them. And what an amazing band it is too! The band plays a forceful technical thrash, very intense and varied as if some celestial being had fun mixing the DNA of bands such as DEMOLITION HAMMER, VIO-LENCE, VEKTOR and the almighty EXHUMER in one gigantic tech thrash experiment... The end result is a band churning out killer riffs after killer riffs with an obvious facility in writing memorable songs while still making them intricate enough to challenge the legions of tech heads worshiping CORONER and other thrash gods of the technical metal realm. This album was first released in 2013 with a slight variation of the front cover and different song titles. The band went on re-recording the whole album in 2018 and the production is killer from A to Z. So why nobody did see this diamond in the rough earlier? No clue is available at the moment but rest assured, ANCESTHOR is one of these bands that grows on you musically and won't let you go... lucky bastards. This album is coming out on CD through RIPRIDE and is including the killer Repka front cover.

The album will come with 6 pages full-color booklet, full-color CD, and shrink-wrapped.

For fans of Vio-Lence, Demolition Hammer, Vektor, Exhumer (Germany)...
