CYHRA RELEASE NEW SINGLE "BLEED WITH PRIDE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Swedish melodic metal supergroup CYHRA (Featuring AMARANTHE Co-Founder Jake E and current THE HALO EFFECT, KAMELOT, THE CROWN, and SUBURBAN TRIBE members) unveil an epic modern metal offering in their empowering new single "Bleed With Pride". As CYHRA celebrates their 10th anniversary year, the new release arrives alongside the announcement of the band's fourth studio album Requiem For A Pipe Dream scheduled to be released on June 5th, 2026, via Reigning Phoenix Music. 

CYHRA frontman Jake E comments, "'Bleed With Pride' is about learning to trust your scars instead of hiding them. For a long time, I carried the weight of the past like something that needed to be buried. But the truth is, those wounds kept me honest. They became my compass.

This song is about the internal war — the silent thunder you fight inside — and choosing not to let it drown you. If I’m going to bleed, it’s not out of shame anymore. It’s with pride. Because every scar means I survived, I rebuilt, and I kept burning."

"Bleed With Pride" aptly encompasses the central themes of the forthcoming Requiem For A Pipe Dream. This rhythmic track, fueled by a driving momentum, delivers a resonating effect alongside the emotive lyrics. CYHRA's high-octane sound is captivating and energizing; providing encouragement and strength to keep progressing despite past difficulties.

About CYHRA

As they approach their 10th anniversary next year, CYHRA have carved out a notable place in the metal scene since their founding in 2016 by Jake E (AMARANTHE Co-Founder) and Jesper Strömblad (THE HALO EFFECT, formerly IN FLAMES). They were soon joined by drummer Alex Landenburg (KAMELOT, Luca Turilli’s RHAPSODY), guitarist Euge Valovirta (SUBURBAN TRIBE), and bassist Peter Iwers (THE HALO EFFECT, formerly IN FLAMES). Their debut album Letters To Myself” was released in 2017 to glowing reviews, catapulting the group to global stages, crowned with a massive North American tour supporting SABATON and KREATOR.

 Following Iwers’ departure, Valovirta also took over bass duties, and the band released their second album No Halos In Hell in 2019, which blended groovy metal with a poppy flair and featured the hit single "Out Of My Life," amassing about 11 million streams on Spotify. Their success continued with a European tour with BATTLE BEAST, UK dates alongside DELAIN, headline shows in select countries including Finland and Japan, and performances at major festivals like Masters of Rock, Bloodstock Open Air, Sabaton Open Air, and 70,000 Tons of Metal.

 In 2020, guitarist Marcus Sunesson (RONNIE ATKINS, THE CROWN) joined, expanding the line-up. The pandemic pause allowed the band to craft their third album The Vertigo Trigger, released in 2023. The album’s tour brought them back to Finland to open for SMASH INTO PIECES and to headline shows in early 2024. Quietly beginning their fourth album, CYHRA ended the cycle with a Scandinavian tour with EVERGREY, leading into 2025 and through to 2026 with a series of new single releases. Requiem For A Pipe Dream lands on June 5th, 2026, via Reigning Phoenix Music.

THE ALBUM

The goat is back! French heavy rockers GOATFATHER return with their third full-length House of the Rising Smoke, out October 24th via Argonauta Records. Following their acclaimed records Hipster Fister (2016) and Monster Truck (2021), the band takes their sound to new heights – or better, deeper lows – with 6 tracks of heavy groove, thunderous vocals and riffs dripping with greasy stoner attitude.

The new record introduces Violeine (ex-Witchgrove) on bass, bringing fresh energy and rumbling low end to the band’s filthy sonic brew. Expect a raw yet catchy blend of stoner heaviness, southern swagger and relentless riff power, crafted to shake stages and fuel late-night rock rituals.

Night of the Blue Smoke

Son of a Witch

THE BAND

Come and have a taste of GOATFATHER’s unique mixture: a filthy blend of goat milk, engine oil and southern bourbon in a rusty shaker.

Spreading greasy music in their path, these four musicians from France play Heavy Stoner Rock – and they play it loud! The band quickly gained attention from audiences and press with their debut Hipster Fister (Black Wave, 2016) and sophomore Monster Truck (Argonauta Records, 2021). Extensive live shows followed, with GOATFATHER sharing stages with heavyweights like Stoned Jesus, Planet of Zeus, Mars Red Sky, Monkey3 and more.

Now, with House of the Rising Smoke, GOATFATHER are ready to unleash their dirtiest, heaviest and most ambitious work to date – six crushing tracks straight from the bayou, soaked in fuzz and dripping with sweat.

El tema, titulado "Angels of Static", se lanzará el 26 de septiembre, seguido de un video musical el 1 de octubre. La pieza reimaginada transforma la tragedia de la icónica banda sonora en un mensaje de resiliencia y esperanza, conectando a la perfección con el arco narrativo de Prophecy.

THE COMANCHEROS RELEASE "A DECADE IN THE MIRROR"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

THE COMANCHEROS – A DECADE IN THE MIRROR

LABEL: ROTTWEILER RECORDS/INDEPENDENT RELEASE

RELEASE DATE: MARCH 22nd 2025

It’s been ten years since The Comancheros started rolling along the blacktop highways, under the star dusted skies, carrying their hard rocking anthems and heartfelt ballads from the cities to the deserts, the forests to the sea. Bringing cowboys to the bars and broken hearted ghosts to their campfire, the years have passed in moments since their journey began back in 2015. Then suddenly there was a decade in that rearview mirror, stretching out behind them in miles and stories, drinks and songs…

To celebrate the first ten years of an adventure which shows no signs of reaching an end, The Comancheros have compiled an album of tracks that demonstrate the heart-on-the-sleeve emotion of their music; as diverse as life and as dark as the longest nights, as honest as tears and proud in their own skin…defiant, unbreakable, rebellious to the last breath. A Decade In The Mirror brings together songs never released before in a physical format, limited edition EPs whose CD runs have long since sold out, rarities from split cassette editions and live tracks that have never been made available before. Every aspect of The Comancheros’ spirit in all its raw grit and glory, from the dancing riffs and ZZ Top boogie of ‘Crazy As Hell’ to the melancholy reflection in the shadow of the gallows of ‘Don’t Forget My Name’, the gentle balladry of ‘I Stare At Trains’ to the smooth melodies, hard guitars and exuberance of ‘We Own The Night’. Perhaps what permeates all The Comancheros music more than anything else, all of A Decade In The Mirror from the laidback Americana of  opener ‘The Day George Jones Died’ to the final whiskey salute of ‘If I Could Pick A Way To Go’ recorded live in Spain, is the untarnished honesty of expression that runs through it all like blood. Bringing together influences from southern rock, pure country and American folk ballads that stretch their roots deep into the past, The Comancheros have found their own definition of their unique sound – Heavy and Western – and that’s what you’ll find on A Decade In The Mirror.

On March 22nd Rottweiler Records will release the digital version of A Decade In The Mirror, while The Comancheros will be taking the traditional path, launching the album in CD format with a special show at The Basement in Nashville on the same day. Whichever format is right for you, just make sure you listen to A Decade In The Mirror and discover the sound of Heavy and Western, the sound of The Comancheros!

OCCULT WITCHES RELEASE "SORROW´S PYRE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Occult Witches

Sorrow's Pyre

Black Throne Productions

12 July 2024

The enchanting hard rock band OCCULT WITCHES will release its 4th full-length album, Sorrow's Pyre, on July 12th, 2024 via Black Throne Productions. By combining elements of 70s hard rock with blues and baroque classical music, OCCULT WITCHES creates moody, mystical atmospheres that recall their love for bands such as DEEP PURPLE, LED ZEPPELIN, and BLACK SABBATH. Sorrow's Pyre offers a collection of imaginative narratives about witches, magic, corruption, and the nature of faith. The songs tell their stories through the eyes of many different characters as they each navigate their own internal and external conflicts. The overarching theme of the album ties these stories together with a focus on the dangers of making evil choices, as nearly every song presents its main character with a choice between good and evil in different settings. These themes take on a new life with the band's unique combination of musical influences, which sound both nostalgic and forward-thinking in the same way that their influences did. 

The band comments, "Overall, the album talks a lot about Satan and making bad choices, where that takes you. Also witches and not having a pure soul. We just want to say a huge thank you to Olivier Béliveau ‘Rolie Olie’ for working on this with us, he’s a gem and to Black Throne Productions for supporting us."

About OCCULT WITCHES:

OCCULT WITCHES has quickly risen through the ranks, defining a unique space within the rock genre with their captivating blend of music and storytelling. Their songs, rich in narrative and emotion, draw on elements of darkness, witchcraft, and existential struggle, resonating with a wide range of listeners.

The band's journey from Rimouski, QC, to Hamilton, ON, on their first tour last summer has only solidified their presence in the music scene. With plans for mini-tours this summer, OCCULT WITCHES is poised to reach new heights and captivate more audiences with their powerful performances and profound lyrical themes.

OCCULT WITCHES invites listeners to embark on this dark yet enlightening journey through their music. Stay tuned for more from OCCULT WITCHES as they continue to explore the depths of the human condition and the eternal dance between light and darkness.

REDSTONE RELEASE "IMMORTAL"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

French heavy metal / hard rock / stoner band REDSTONE have just released their debut EP, entitled "Immortal". The EP was released on March 8th and features the following tracks:

"Immortal" tracklist:

2.Fight 05:31  

3.Immortal 05:33  

4.Cause and Effect 04:03  

5.Hight Time 03:09

Coming from various backgrounds ranging from the Nantes region to Normandy via Angers, the Redstone musicians team up to form their project. The band explored their musical style and evolved at their own pace until the release of their first 4-track EP in 2019.

This first Opus lays the foundation for the Redstone style. In parallel, Mael (Drummer) , founder of Nuriec Amp, brings in new amplifiers to refine the “Redstone” sound.

Following the COVID episodes, the group decided to step up to the next level, and gave themselves the means to provide new songs to perform on stage. The result is a powerful, heavy and melodic set, both metal and stoner with lively vocals, all supported by a live video set to create a complete artistic atmosphere around their musical approach.

The group won the ALM VII springboard in 2023, opened the Omega SOUNDFEST festival and shared the stage with Loudblast and Bukowski. This springboard paves the way for a new EP recorded at the DOME studio in January 2024.

BLOOD OPERA RELEASE COVER OF "KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Toronto, Canada's horror fiends Blood Opera will be unleashing their first full-length album “Songs in the Key of Death” on February 24th. Paying tribute to the genre films they love and mixing metal with the macabre, these purveyors of “Dead Metal” are sharing their next cut off the forthcoming record with the cover of the theme song for the 1988 American horror classic "Killer Klowns from Outer Space".

"This is a cover of The Dickies song from the film of the same name. It features guest keyboard work by the composer of the OST John Massari." adds the band.

Having feasted on human flesh with bands such as GWAR and being endorsed by the zombie Godfather himself, George A. Romero, Blood Opera has quickly become Canada's number-one horror metal act. With powerful operatic vocals, sleazy guitar riffs, and blasphemous lyrics inspired by some of the scariest movies ever made, one thing is for sure- if the gates of Hell are left open, it could mean the end of all humanity!

“Songs in the Key of Death” features album guests Morgan Lander (Kittie), Maurizio Guarini (Goblin) along with track voice-over guests Tony Todd (Candyman), Adrienne Barbeau (The Fog), Linnea Quigley (The Return of the Living Dead), and Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes, X-Files, Star Trek).
