"Propelled by the inhuman vocals of John Tardy, the obscenely brutal guitar tone of Trevor Peres and rhythmic brilliance of drummer Donald Tardy, Obituary redefined heaviness throughout the 1990s. From undisputed classics Slowly We Rot and Cause of Death, through an unexpected hiatus to their current creative renaissance, Obituary have pioneered, defined and expanded extreme metal, becoming one of the underground’s most recognized and respected acts." - Decibel Magazine

The legendary Death Metal icons OBITUARY return with their highly anticipated new album, Dying of Everything.

Dying Of Everything destroys in the time-honored tradition of early OBITUARY classics Slowly We Rot and Cause of Death while maintaining the killer studio sound that the band has been perfecting in their own studio since 2007’s monstrous Xecutioner’s Return.

You can hear the results on lead single “The Wrong Time” which boasts a slamming mid-tempo groove. Meanwhile, the title track boasts punishing riffs and songwriting by Ken Andrews. The album’s third single, “My Will To Live,” is a total skull-crusher. Track after track, OBITUARY solidify their legacy as a Death Metal institution, churning out some of the heaviest riffs in their career.

Like just about every album in OBITUARY’s vast catalog, Dying Of Everything is instantly memorable; it’s a skill that OBITUARY have only improved upon over the years. It’s unusual for a band that’s been around since the ’80s to be doing some of their best work in the 2020s, but that’s exactly what OBITUARY have accomplished through their do-it-yourself attitude and relentless touring on a worldwide level. “I think it comes down to passion,” vocalist John Tardy offers. “I say this all the time, but if something’s not fun, I’m not gonna do it. And we’re having more fun than ever.”

IMPERIUM DEKADENZ delivers profound darkness from the heart of the Black Forest!

Lords of black metal IMPERIUM DEKADENZ raise darkness from the depths of southwestern Germany’s Black Forest once more with their new album, Into Sorrow Evermore, to be unleashed in 2023 via Napalm Records.

Inspired by Norwegian black metal traditions, the band incorporates the raw, visceral style of these masters and surpasses with their own dark, atmospheric compositions. Immersed in the void, they approach themes of depression, death and desperation, luring the listener into their sorrowful reality of existence. True to the beginnings of the genre, IMPERIUM DEKADENZ stick to their roots and leave their own haunting mark on the genre, claiming their rightful place in the upper echelons of black metal.

On their new album, IMPERIUM DEKADENZ continue their unique journey with dark, ambient sounds, luring the listener into suffocating spheres of black metal. Opener and title track “Into Sorrow Evermore” starts off with classic tremolo-picked black metal guitars and hard-hitting drums, building a gloomy atmosphere with the thrilling sound of vocalist Horaz spurring the album’s immersion. “Truth under Stars” lures with pummeling blast beats accompanied by tragic guitar melodies as deep growls complement them to envelop the signature grim mood of the band. “Aurora” showcases melancholic pianos, accompanied by trudging drums as icy guitars swoon with a distorted but lush melody, building up to a serene guitar solo that cries its sorrows to the sky. The influence of various metal genres can be witnessed in songs like “Elysian Fields” and “Awakened beyond Dreams”, while in between, “Forest in Gale” ensures characteristic style devices in mid-tempo speed, inducing a shift before delivering drama and dynamics. “November Monument” is a gloomy, slow doom inspired piece with steady drums that march on and guitars delicately plucking chords heavy with emotion, capturing the feeling of the approaching winter when November arrives. IMPERIUM DEKADENZ closes the album with “Memories… a Raging River”, rightly encompassing all vicious vibes of the album into one final song. The album’s flow mimics life itself, beginning with high energy that slowly fades into melancholy as it lives on.

Into Sorrow Evermore is an intense album that combines the best of various genres while staying faithful to the eternal sound of black metal. IMPERIUM DEKADENZ prove their place in the realm of darkness and gloom with their very own atmospheric style, ascending with technical skill and grim atmospheres inducing sorrow, evermore!

GREYBEARD RELEASE "DARK AGE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Dark Age

by Greybeard

Tracklist:

1.Boreal Decimation

2.Light From 1,000 Suns

3.Barren

4.Vultures

5.Beneath

6.Terra Umbra 06:27

7.1,000 Years Of Night

8.Hall Of The Gods

9.Dark Age

A near-future, post-apocalyptic story that has a family struggling to survive after civilization collapses. Through their struggles, the protagonist loses his sanity and sees himself as the last human on the planet before the mass extinction is complete. As the story progresses, it blends in some fantasy-esque elements with his hallucinations of seeing a witch who commands him to do her bidding. In the end, he loses all grip on his sanity as the stark, cold reality of a lifeless planet overwhelms him.

The primary driver for this concept was the current state of planet and our collision course with climate change. This concept coupled with lyrics that explore the mental toll of watching things you love die are the fundamental explorations on this album.
