About "Dying of Everything":

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.”


INNER SCREAM RELEASE "DEVOLUTION"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Small Inner Scream bio:

The band is together since 2017 as a result of personal and genre changes in prog-hardrock band called Black Road. After the singer left a band and we stayed as a trio, we have decided to start experimenting with heavier sound and also harder genres like death metal and its core sub-genres.

We also wanted to change the band name, so our guitarist/singer came with the name Inner Scream. This name should symbolizing the inner fight or protest against the outside elements which are trying to limit us as a persons or suppress our freewill whether it’s political, medial or another manipulation.

In this old-new band grouping we started composing new songs and soon there was the first EP or unofficial album with six songs followed by a few smaller gigs. The second EP was released in 2019 and it contained three new songs. It was again followed by a few smaller concerts in clubs

and luckily one bigger gig on Krutofest (metal festival supporting less known bands in Slovakia).

During the global plague we were working on new stuff and the result is the third EP Devolution with three songs.

The band is continuing with composing and playing new material, rehearsing and be ready for an action.

ANIMALIZE RE-RELEASE "TAPES FROM THE CRYPT"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Tapes from the Crypt

by Animalize

Label: Dying Victims Prods.


Tracklist:

1.Meatnight Race 04:06

2.Chainsaw & Boomstick 03:30

3.Jungle Dance 03:38

4.Sous l'Oeil du Charognard 04:43

5.L'Aigle de la Route 04:35


DYING VICTIMS PRODUCTIONS is proud to present a reissue of the explosive debut mini-album of France’s ANIMALIZE, Tapes From the Crypt, on CD, and 12” vinyl formats. 

Since 2018, France’s ANIMALIZE keep playing the kind of music that you (or your parents) may listened to 40 years ago. You know that "Heavy Metal" sound that appeared at a time when none of the band members was born. Well, they're still doing it.

However, it is the band’s love of movies which arguably influence ANIMALIZE’s outlook the most and make the difference. For them, a visual identity and atmosphere – whether in their visual aesthetic, be it artwork or onstage, or especially their eventual videos – are of the utmost importance. Film also feeds their lyrics, quite often. The band states that such movies as Evil Dead, Mad Max, Pet Sematary, Masters of the Universe, and Terminator are among their most beloved. 

While they would bring both to Technicolor climax with their debut album for DYING VICTIMS, Meat We Are Made Of, during the summer of 2022, ANIMALIZE nevertheless came out with all guns blazing two years prior on the preceding mini-album Tapes From the Crypt. With an eye-grabbing (and era-authentic) cover setting the stage, the originally-limited Tapes From the Crypt managed to make ANIMALIZE’s strengths plain and POWERFUL: cruising speed metal glory crossing swords with radio-ready traditional metal of a most mid-‘80s vintage. This is the sound of ANIMALIZE at their most straightforward– and, arguably, most accessible – for the proceeding debut full-length found them upping the vocal layering and especially the complexity considerably, but the gleam & glory of Tapes From the Crypt is undeniable, and undeniably fun. A snapshot of a still-boundless band finding their wings, now finally reissued: the saga of ANIMALIZE begins here!

This demo has been remastered and resurrected by Vargheist Records on Brent Smith's behalf now exclusively on CD format with a new front cover from the late Dave Mowers (rest in peace).

Enjoy this killer piece of death metal history from the Carolina Death Metal scene where Vargheist Records originates!


More on the Album:

Cranial Indulgence is more than a simple re-issue, it’s the unearthing and revitalization of a classic piece of death metal history that up until now had been seemingly lost to us all. Sadly, you don’t know what you’ve been missing until you actually experience it and anyone luck enough to listen to this album will quickly come to this realisation.

This is death metal from a time when there were no rules and no formulas for what makes an album heavy or brutal and few pioneering bands to draw inspiration from. As such bands like Debauchery were able to make completely unhinged extreme metal that stands on its own merits and sounds unlike anything else out there.

The sheer level of raw aggression on display through John and Andy’s dual vocal assault alone makes the album worth listening to. Crazed raw shrieks, madly barked mid-range vocals and powerful gutturals hit the listener from every side. When you pair this with top tier old school death metal instrumentation and classic filthy production it makes for a winning combination. Thick chunky bass work, mid-tempo drums and complex, furious riffage await the listener. Most importantly, while the album has been remastered it still sounds as if it came straight out of the early 90s, maintaining its raw, DIY sound. Cranial Indulgence is a must listen for any fans of OSDM, it’s a lost gem that is finally available to a modern audience and this opportunity should not be missed.

MORDKAUL RELEASE "FOR I AM A MACHINE" FIRST TRACK OF "FEEDING THE MACHINE - PART 1"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Belgian Melodic Death metal band MORDKAUL releases with “For I Am Machine”, the first track from their upcoming album “Feeding The Machine – Part 1”

“For I Am Machine” can be called the title track of that new album and is about man becoming a machine in today’s society. Heart and mind are biochemical engines. Replace endorfines with gasoline and become pure machine…

Where the songs on Dress Code: Blood were heavily inspired by the iconic Swedish death metal bands from the 90's, For I Am Machine is one of those songs that go a step further than that. Expect more aggressive dual vocals, shredding solos and a full arsenal of blast beats and groovy parts.

Feeding The Machine - Part 1 was recorded at the end of Summer 2022 at Project Zero studio by Yarne Heylen. Just like with Dress Code: Blood, mixing and mastering was done by Dan Swanö. Release of the album is planned on February 16th 2023.

DISMAL RELEASE "VIA ENTIS"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Dismal

Via Entis

Aural Music

27 January 2023


The 8th Album from the Italian Dark Gothic Masters DISMAL,Via Entis will be released on January 27th 2023 via Aural Music. The album is  a mix of magical and theatrical atmospheres; a concept album in the form of musical and gothic fairy tales.


About DISMAL:

DISMAL is an Italian artistic and musical project formed in 1995. The first year was dedicated to experimenting with the new musical style, aiming at originality. Love for music and alchemy became a need for expression and Our Sad Saga was their debut demo in 1996, which was printed on CD and considered a great novelty in the European underground scene. Our Sad Saga contained doom and black metal sounds, approaching the nascent gothic metal genre. 

The first full-length album was released in November 1998 via Pagan Moon Records (Audioglobe distribution), titled Fiaba Lacrimevole – Like A Red Bleeding Rose In A Glacial Desert. This album was an immediate success and soon it became a top selling album for the label. In September, 2002 DISMAL signed a long-term deal with Dreamcell11, a division of Aural Music Group, to promote the band artistically and commercially. By the end of 2002 the band entered the Gulp Studio by Marco Calliari (sound engineering of Subsonica) to record their second CD titled Rubino Liquido – Three Scarlet Drops… using a 12-element orchestra. 

Miele Dal Salice is the third album released in 2006, the band dedicated a lot of time to this record, full of bizarre and intense tones, characterized by gothic-bohemian and neofolk shades. In this new album, the band has collaborated with ROSSANA LANDI, solo singer and double bass player. After a short but intense tour in Germany and Italy, protagonists of important festivals like the Wave Gothic Treffen in Leipzig and Berlin, DISMAL took a break and Afelio (guitarist and male vocalist) left the band due to personal reasons. 

After this very long break, the band decided to enter the studio at the Punto Rec Studios with Fabrizio Argiolas (sound engineer) in 2013 to record the new album Giostra di Vapore. In this work, the band has created a new sound dimension fusing electronic sound with classical music, modern and antique meet together for a sound inspired by steampunk and the industrial revolution. The lyrics of Giostra di Vapore are always focused on topics like social psychology, alchemy and more spiritual themes. They released 6 video clips and participated in some live and big neofolk and steampunk festivals. 


DISMAL in 2019 began the composition of their fifth new concept-album Quinta Essentia, concluding the recording in July 2020 at Gulp Studio with Marco Calliari (sound engineer). The band claims to have combined all their previous work, keeping their signature Gothic and theatrical sound constant. 

In February 2022, with the new singer Caterina Accorsi (professional jazz singer), DISMAL entered the studio at Gulp Studio to record the new album, Via Entis, a return to the past, where they join to relive the path of the beginnings. 

Via Entis represents the new parallel path, made with a higher musical and cultural awareness: starting precisely from the Middle Ages and its atmospheres.

WITCHROT ANNOUNCE "LIVE IN THE HAMMER"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Sizzling, soulful and bewitching, WITCHROT is gearing up for their latest offering Witchrot: Live in the Hammer, due out for its international release March 10, 2023. All sleaze and psych, Live In The Hammer has the fuzz fueled quartet playing in the grease trap of Ontario. Smoky vocals overtop mesmeric psychedelic doom fill the room to the brim. Pre-orders for Live In The Hammer are available HERE

Formed in Toronto in 2018, WITCHROT was founded by Lea Reto (vocals) & Peter Turik (Guitar). After some international press over band disputes, betrayals, and a temporary break up, the band recruited Lea’s boyfriend Nick Kervin (Drums) and Cam Alford (Bass). Together they recorded the band’s debut full-length Hollow (2021) and most recently Live In the Hammer. Currently, Nick “Nido” Dolphin has joined the band on bass. 

Pulling from the lost psychedelic masterpieces with fuzz erupting like a volcano and the ethereal shoegaze music of the late 80s and 90s, WITCHROT has carved their own haunting path. The all-consuming wave of divine music that is terrifying by its sheer velocity and force rather than dissonance. 

Simultaneously beautiful and putrid, Live In The Hammer pays homage to the grime of the past, paved over by the glitz of the present. Live In The Hammer was recorded at Boxcar Sound in Hamilton, and mastered by Tony Reed at Heavy Head Recording.

The bubbling cauldron that is Live In the Hammer, serves as a bridge between Hollow and the band’s forthcoming next album, currently in the works. There’s no escaping the strange web of WITCHROT. Fall into the chasm and embrace the dark. 


WITCHROT is:

Lea Reto - Vocals

Peter Turik - Guitar

Nick Kervin - Drums

Nick “Nido” Dolphin - Bass

Short Bio: Die Entweihung (Desecration (German)) - one man band, formed in May 2007, by Denis Tereschenko (first years performed as Herr Entweiherr), in the northern part of Israel, three years after moving to Israel from Belarus (Vitebsk). Beginning as a raw Black Metal project, Die Entweihung, already on the second album embarks on all sorts of experiments relating to all aspects of creativity. Having passed for almost 10 years through the different, both stylistic and sound changes, Die Entweihung releases "Neverending Terrorism" in 2015, an album as far removed from Black Metal; now the style of the project can be identified as Blackened Heavy Metal, with the lyrics about the surrounding sad reality. The newest conceptual “Strict Regime Country” is continuing the way of the three previous albums, presenting to the listener eclectic mixing such styles like Heavy Metal, Thrash Metal, Doom Metal, Prog Rock with rich vocal diversity (male growling/screaming, female growling/clean vocals) and lot of Middle-Eastern melodies.

The album is dedicated to Denis' native Belarus, and all the album titles and lyrics are based mostly on the events that happened in 2020-2021 in Belarus (False elections, largest protests in the country's history, lot of people were imprisoned or forced to run from Belarus).
