JUSTICE THEORY RELEASE "MY TRUE NEMESIS"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

Finnish thrash metal influenced melodic metal band Justice Theory's new single My True Nemesis is a song about the struggle with your inner demons. 


Listen to the song on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal jne.): https://push.fm/fl/justicetheory-mytruenemesis


Check the lyric video: https://youtu.be/dsYSTiDqxPk


The singer-guitarist Valtteri Saharinen tells about the track:

"MY TRUE NEMESIS is a song about battling your own inner enemy. The narrator’s opponent isn’t some external force, but rather this internal power that takes control of their mind and life. Feelings of anger, resentment, shame, and despair are constantly churning inside throughout life, and you’re forced to deal with them if you want to move forward. The chorus, “true nemesis,” is a metaphor for this internal force, an enemy you have to face over and over again, one you can never escape.

The song has this heavy, fatalistic vibe, where the enemy is seen as inevitable, just a natural part of life. The narrator’s lyrics dig deep into the conflict between self-hatred and the struggle to accept oneself. In the final chorus, the voices in their head scream, “No way out!” – summing up the feeling that this inner enemy is tied to their fate. It’s something they can’t outrun, only learn to live with.

Musically, the track is raw and intense, perfectly mirroring the darkness in the lyrics. It drags the listener deep into the pain of the mind but also opens a door to self-reflection and acceptance. My True Nemesis is a powerful take on the inner battle and how it’s an inseparable part of being human."

Justice Theory started as a thrash metal band in 2012. After that they have moved towards more melodic approach without forgetting their thrash metal past. Justice Theory has released around dozen singles and EPs.

ALPHOENIX RELEASE NEW TRACK: "TOKYO LUNAR"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

The Japanese band ALPHOENIX was formed in 2015 and plays a melodic type of death metal. In their music, they combine aggression with sensational melodic guitar parts, clean vocals and growls. While influenced by the Nordic scene, they fuse it with a uniquely Japanese sensibility, pushing the boundaries of melodic death metal while staying true to their roots.

Revitalizing the global death metal scene is no small task, but ALPHOENIX is moving towards achieving it. So far, the band from Tokyo has released two studio albums: "Final Crusades" (2015) and "Evil Ways" (2022) and few singles.

Alphoenix draws inspiration from legendary bands like In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, and Soilwork, blending the melodic intricacies of the Gothenburg sound with powerful, evocative lyrics that resonate with listeners' hearts. Their music feature are guitar harmonies that mix catchy melodies with heavy rhythms with fusion of clean vocals and growls to express a broad emotional range

Today, the Japanese band is releasing video to the brand new song titled "Tokyo Lunar" with guest vocal by Xavier from American melodic death metal band Upon Stone. Single was engineered by Thomas Johansson at The Panic Room (Blindead 23, Ereb Altor, Evergrey, Katatonia, Mayhem, Watain). The cover artwork was created by Shimpei - the vocalist and guitarist of the band. 

Leader of the band about new song: "It's our the heaviest track to date, fusing 90s Tokyo culture with a modern perspective, set during the dawn of melodic death metal. Celebrate the band's 10th anniversary with us!".

VULTUR RELEASE "CULTORES DE PERDAS E LINNA"

 


PRESS RELEASE:

VULTUR "Cultores de Perdas e Linna"

Black Metal

Masked Dead Records / Sulphur Music | 28 February 2025


Sardinian Black Metal veterans VULTUR are finally ready to release their third album: "Cultores de Perdas e Linna" was recorded in 2023 but did not see light until today, in 2025. The album, whose title means " lovers of stone and wood" (a way in which the Christians derogatorily defined the Nuragic population), is composed of eight songs sung in the Campidanese Sardinian language, except for "Nemini Parco", sung in Italian and Latin.

VULTUR's style is aggressive, rhythmically frenetic and merciless, full of intriguing riffs and a certain level of violence and darkness. Fans of the old Satyricon, Marduk, Mayhem and Immortal will be pleased, as will lovers of the melodic bridges of Dissection, the evocativeness of Rotting Christ and the dark heaviness of Mortuary Drape.

The artwork takes inspiration from the Sardinian popular mask called "Su Boe", one of the most important entities of the carnival of Sardinian traditions.

Founded exactly 20 years ago, VULTUR were the first Black Metal band to use lyrics in the Sardinian Campidanese language, with themes linked to Sardinian occultism and popular folklore.

The album will premiere via the popular YouTube channel Black Metal Promotion on February 26, 2025.
