LEACH RELEASE NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO: "SLICE OF LIFE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Release Date: March 12, 2024

FFO: Machine Head, Lamb of God, The Haunted, In flames, Exodus

Location: Borås (Close to Gothenburg, Sweden)

To Sing Along or to Bang Head? A Tough Decision Brought to You by Swedish Moshers LEACH and Their New Lyric Video "Slice Of Life"

The enigmatic northern parts of Europe, particularly Scandinavia, harbor a unique cycle of light and darkness, shaping the region's rich tapestry of myths, legends, and fairy tales. From this fertile soil emerges heavy metal, a genre deeply intertwined with the ethos of the land, serving as a conduit for catharsis and healing. Swedish mosh battalion LEACH harnesses this potent energy in their latest single and lyric video, "Slice Of Life," inviting listeners to shed their burdens and embrace the moment.

In a world where shadows linger and demons lurk, "Slice Of Life" offers a respite—a chance to cut through the darkness and find solace in the raw power of music. LEACH vocalist and guitarist Markus reflects on the song's essence, stating, "It's about shaking off what's eating away at you, about confronting that sense of unfulfillment head-on." With its punkish energy, straightforward rhythms, and crushing metal undertones, "Slice Of Life" serves as a sonic salve for the soul.

The single marks the third and final release from LEACH's forthcoming album, "New Model Of Disbelief," set to drop digitally and on CD/LP formats on April 19, 2024. Recorded, mixed, and mastered by Christian Silver at Studiomega (known for his work with Sepultura, Kreator, and Soilwork), the album promises to push the boundaries of the Swedish metal sound while delving into themes of revolution, social injustice, and inner turmoil.

ROSSOMETILE RELEASE "GEHENNA"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Italian symphonic metal band ROSSOMETILE have announced their seventh album, "Gehenna", which has been slated for release on May 10th 2024.

Since their inception, ROSSOMETILE has become one of the most dynamic and prolific bands in the contemporary Italian metal scene.

The album's first single, "Sangue e Seduzione", is now available HERE.

The band commented:

“’Sangue e Seduzione’ (Blood and Seduction) is the first single from our new album, marking a new chapter for the band. It's a track that represents a stylistic turning point from the past, featuring more dynamic arrangements with orchestrations making room for electronic elements. This song also introduces the theme of the new album, which revolves around torment and is developed differently in each track. In 'Sangue e Seduzione' the scenario is the desire for possession, both physical and mental, and the craving that turns into torment and degenerates into violence”.

"Gehenna" tracklist:

01. Gehenna

02. Voci Dal Deserto

03. Magdalena

04. Pasionaria (Frida)

05. Sangue e Seduzione

06. La Rosa d’Inverno

07. Dat Melti Min Modir

08. Valhalla

09. Stella del Mattino

10. Geminus

11. Duet With Satan

12. The Dying Mermaid

With a haunting blend of symphonic melodies, gothic undertones, and powerful operatic vocals, the Italian gothic/symphonic metal ensemble ROSSOMETILE emerges as a formidable force in the realm of dark and atmospheric music. For two decades, this quartet has mesmerized audiences with their unique fusion of symphonic-gothic metal and ancestral influences, crafting a sound that transcends genres and defies convention.

Formed two decades ago in Salerno (Italy) and led by the enchanting vocals of their lyrically gifted frontwoman Ilaria Hela Bernardini with the founder-guitarist Rosario Runes Reina, ROSSOMETILE have meticulously crafted their signature sound, blending symphonic grandeur with the raw power of metal, all while infusing elements of ancestral music for an otherworldly experience. Their lyrics, adorned with poetic nuances, evoke a sense of mystery and introspection, drawing listeners into a realm of profound emotions.

Through cinematic music videos, they breathe life into their music, creating immersive narratives that complement their sonic journey, and further enhancing the atmospheric ambiance of their performances.

With their ethereal soundscapes and captivating presence, ROSSOMETILE continues to enchant audiences, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of gothic and symphonic metal.

In 2024 they have completed their last album named “Gehenna”, recorded by Francesco Tedesco at Studio XXXV.

Mixed and mastered by Simone Mularoni (DGM) at Domination Studios.

Line-up:

Ilaria Hela Bernardini: vocals, piano

CHUNKED RELEASE "INHALING THE INFESTATION"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Kingsport, Tennessee, USA’s brutal and unrelenting death metal act Chunked are pleased to announce their signing with Gore House Productions for the digital release of their EP “Inhaling the Infestation”. The record is a knuckle-dragging testament to primitive death metal and is set to drop digitally on March 15th and physical CD / Cassette on May 3rd, 2024.

Founded in 2023 by the visionary Arian Mauk, Chunked emerged with the sole purpose of crafting a personal favorite in the realm of death metal—something heavy, simple, and undeniably powerful. Initially intended as a one-off project, Chunked gained unexpected traction, leading Mauk to assemble a full band and continue the journey into the abyss of primal, visceral sound. He shares his thoughts on the upcoming release:

“This EP is a simple and effective type of death metal with no extra flair. Death metal down to its core. I wanted to create a memorable experience with this EP. With tracks like “Liquid Cranial Detonation” and “Concrete Veins” being shorter and catchier, and tracks like “Inhaling the Infestation” being more well structured and longer. For our next release, which will be a full-length, our fans can expect a minimum of 30 minutes of material.”

The artwork for “Inhaling the Infestation” is a cave outline that perfectly encapsulates the cavernous and chunky death metal that Chunked delivers—a no-frills, down-to-the-core death metal experience. It will make fans drag their knuckles on the ground like a Neanderthal and de-evolution back to their primitive state. It is recommended for fans of Mortician, Sanguisugabogg, and Torsofuck.

Message From the Artist:

The most biblical, deep reaching, and monolithic work of Nothing Is Real to date, this album chronicles humanity's endless capacity for cruelty, cowardice, and fear, as well as humanity's endless capacity for love, understanding, and evolution. This album shows the journey from one living in the darkest depths to one transcending the fears and trappings of their mind into a new incarnation. Any given day and moment we all have the capacity for horrid selfishness, demonic cruelty, and endless indifference, or the capacity for endless selflessness, love, and understanding. The choice is ours, and the only way to see the answer is to remember: NOTHING IS REAL
