HORRIFIC VISIONS RELEASE "REMNANTS OF ATROPHY"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

HORRIFIC VISIONS – REMNANTS OF ATROPHY

LABEL: COMATOSE MUSIC

RELEASE DATE: MAY 22nd 2026

Grey skies and black earth, a pallor of sickness hanging over a rotten world. The wasted remains of civilisation, of mankind’s dreams and ambitions, lie mouldering beneath a cold sludge of ash and decay. New forms of warped, suppurating life squirm in entangled, mindless masses; nothing but pustulent worms driven by hunger, aggression and lust. Evolution has stumbled and fallen, never to rise again. The future is the present – this diseased sea of parasitic consumption and death…the repugnant remnants of life’s atrophy.

Twelve years on from their initial spawning in Texas’ ever-fertile breeding grounds of brutality, Horrific Visions are finally set to unleash their full-length debut album of shocking violence and colossal carnage. After two decimating EPs - Enlightenment Through Excruciating Torture (2022) and Monopoly On Violence (2024) - the time has come to stare into the dead eyes of Remnants Of Atrophy!

The album opens with the disorientating, spinning riffs of ‘Malnutrition’, inspiring visions of skin stretched across protruding bone to the point of tearing. Fired by depravation and desperation this track collapses into nerve-grating sounds, before reforming into a shape of pure evil; a huge riff of monstrous heaviness, inhuman vehemence and bone grinding malice. From this point there is no way back. Through the terrifying focus and precision of ‘Deranged Perversion’ to the aptly entitled and utterly barbaric ‘Primal Regression’, on to the reanimated, unhinged and unstoppable ‘Enlightenment Through Excruciating Torture’…God alone knows what clarity of vision awaits anyone subjected to this process of torment and rabid dismemberment…with the final, deftly executed process of extermination being applied by the album’s title track – ‘Remnants Of Atrophy’ – a sonic atrocity invoked by hellish vocals, a rhythm section as tight as a torniquet and guitars conjuring riffs like vengeful djinn. This debut album from Horrific Visions is a gift to the demented and the black of heart – one that has been well worth the wait.

Mixed and mastered by guitarist Mason Vickers at Rocker House Studios, Remnants Of Atrophy possesses a blistering intensity and a raw, serrated edge; it sounds like a deadly weapon, wielded with vicious intent. The final nightmarish touch has been applied by infamous artist John Zig (Aborted Fetus, Deeds Of Flesh, Defeated Sanity etc), enfolding this barrage of brutal death metal in a shroud of bleak, unnerving imagery. Remnants Of Atrophy will be released by Comatose Music on May 22nd…indiscriminate bloodshed and mass destruction await!

Rene Martinez – Drums

Chris Rossmeier - Guitar

Mason Vickers - Guitar

Conrad Heinemeyer - Vocals

Genre: Brutal Death Metal

SAĦĦAR RELEASE "MIGJA TA MOHH MIGNUN"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Maltese black metal entity SAĦĦAR has announced the release of its new full-length album, "Migja ta Mohh Mignun", set to arrive on June 12th, 2026 via Time To Kill Records.

Following the project’s recent signing with the label, the album marks a significant step forward in SAĦĦAR’s artistic evolution, further refining a sound rooted in isolation, heritage and a deeply personal vision. Emerging from a scene far removed from the genre’s traditional strongholds, SAĦĦAR continues to carve out a distinct identity within the contemporary black metal landscape.

"Migja ta Mohh Mignun" expands on the project’s established sonic framework, blending harsh intensity with subtle melodic layers and a pervasive sense of decay. The result is a work that feels both immersive and unsettling, enveloping the listener in a bleak, almost otherworldly atmosphere.

Balancing aggression and introspection, the album pushes deeper into expressive territory while remaining faithful to the raw essence that has defined SAĦĦAR’s output so far, offering a compelling glimpse into the next phase of its evolution.

The first single "Fil-Palazz Sejjahtilhom" is now available:

Stream: https://ffm.to/sahhar-fil-palazz-sejjahtilhom

Mastermind Marton Saliba comments:

"Every sorcerer who displays their power attracts the eyes of unwelcome folk. That’s how the Sorcerer Falzun was eventually summoned from his palace and forced to face the Inquisitor, only for Falzun to fool the Inquisitor and disappear. His heresies were true, his power unfathomable. This is the 4th chapter from the concept album 'Miġja ta’ Moħħ Miġnun' (Journey of a mad mind), a journey is filled with occult rites, supernatural encounters, where in the end, this quest leaves Falzun both cursed and exalted; a figure suspended between madness, immortality, and damnation".

Tracklist:

​01. L-Għatxan

02. Għerf Minsi

03. It-Tarf tal-Kożmu u ta' Ruħi

04. Fil-Palazz Sejjaħtilhom

05. Il-Miġja sa Sqallija

06. Ftakar fija!

07. L-Antikrist il-Ġdid (bonus tracks for CD only)

08. Id-Dinja Taħt Pajjżi

09. L-Imlejka​

https://sahhar.bandcamp.com/album/migja-ta-mohh-mignun

SAĦĦAR began as the brainchild of Marton Saliba, with the aim of creating harsh and extreme music rooted in black metal. From the outset, the project has balanced raw, blast-beat-driven tracks with more mid-tempo material enriched by synths and samples, often blending these elements together. Most of the lyrics are written in Maltese, SAĦĦAR’s native language. The first demo, "Genesis of Demise", followed a year later by the album "Maġija Sewda", gained attention both locally and within the wider underground scene during the MySpace era.

Following the well-received split "Thine Triumphant Death" and a subsequent album that was never officially released, SAĦĦAR entered an indefinite hiatus. The project returned in 2013 with renewed intensity through the EP "Mera Mkissra", showcasing a stronger focus on folklore elements, mid-tempo pacing, and synth-heavy arrangements. From then on, SAĦĦAR maintained a steady output, releasing an average of one EP or album per year until 2020, when the pandemic brought activities to a halt—though writing and studio work continued in preparation for future releases.

The release of the 2015 album "Kruha u Kefrija" also marked SAĦĦAR’s live debut, leading to performances supporting acts such as Destroyer 666, black metal legends Mayhem, and industrial outfit Gothminister. During the pandemic, SAĦĦAR remained active by contributing to online events, including Metal Injection’s "Slayathome" series and the Grimfest online festival.

In early 2020, SAĦĦAR was nominated at the Malta Music Awards in both the “Metal” and “Album in Maltese” categories for "Qilla tal-Qrun", which was well received within the scene. In late 2022, the project embarked on its first tour with a live lineup, spanning nine consecutive days across four countries (Hungary, Slovakia, Bulgaria, and Romania), marking an important step forward in its live evolution.

SAĦĦAR’s sound can be described as “ruinous” black metal—combining grand, larger-than-life symphonic elements with minimal, almost doom-like riffs, as well as intense tremolo-driven passages and ambient, synth-based compositions. This wide-ranging approach is reflected in a discography of over 100 songs. Lyrical themes range from occult and folklore-inspired narratives to death, misanthropic catastrophes, and occasional critiques of organized religion.

Backed by nearly two decades of experience, the band refines its brutality into a precise, sense‑shattering assault!

This is definitely the most focused record we have done to date, we spent a long time arranging the music and lyrics to ensure it is concise and to the point, with any fat stripped away. 'Led Into Oblivion' explores the idea of humanity slowly marching to its own doom with increasing reliance on technology & artificial intelligence. Our good friend Malcolm Abbou (Heads On Pikes) handled the recording and mixing, with the master being done by Korentin Mens and we got the incredible Paolo Girardi to paint his interpretation of our lyrics with the finished result being my favourite artwork we have ever done with the amount of depth and detail he has included in it."

Now on the eve of their 4th full-length release, six years after their previous "Mass Failure", the songwriting is more focused and direct than ever before with a single minded intensity.

ROTTEN SOIL RELEASE "I WORSHIP DEATH

 

PRESS RELEASE:

From the underground depths of Trier, ROTTEN SOIL unleash a savage tribute to the glory days of death metal - filthy, furious, and forged in the spirit of the early ’90s Swedish scene. Since their formation in 2020, the band has been on a relentless mission: no trends, no compromises - just pure, chainsaw-driven brutality. The band’s lineup features Kring (vocal & drums on the album), Svenom (guitars), S.K. (bass), and Sepp (drums), forming a unit that delivers both raw intensity in the studio and crushing power on stage.

In 2022, the German band released well received by listeners and media, debut album titled "From Beyond the Grave". Now, ROTTEN SOIL return with new studio albim "I Worship Death" which is an eleven-track onslaught of relentless riffs, thunderous drums, and venomous vocals. Written and recorded by the band themselves, the album embodies uncompromising death metal at its core, including a crushing Dismember cover of “Casket Garden.” 

Music for the newest record was mixed and mastered by Fredrik Nordström at the legendary Studio Fredman (At The Gates, Dimmu Borgir, In Flames) in Sweden. Band logo was done by Christophe Szpajdel (Emperor, Moonspell, Graveland (PL)), while the striking cover artwork was created by Adrián Ribes. Album was released in digital format (smart link), CD and limited vinyl on February 27, 2026, and is available for purchase at Bandcamp (link here). 

Band comments their new album: "I Worship Death delivers a sound that hits like a sledgehammer - classic in spirit, lethal in execution. No gimmicks. No mercy. No escape.

Rotten Soil is death metal—pure and uncompromising".

DROMOS RELEASE "FAILING LIGHT"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Uk Funeral Doom Visionaries Dromos Announce Debut Album “Failing Light”;

Reveal First Single And Video “My Final Tomb”

London based funeral doom collective DROMOS announce their debut full-length Failing Light, set for release on May 15, 2026 via Argonauta Records in CD and digital formats, and unveil the first monolithic excerpt with the lead single and official video “My Final Tomb”: https://youtu.be/Yl_ht1mktQM

Expanding across vast, slow burning movements, “My Final Tomb” captures the band’s core identity, tectonic pacing, crushing density and a near ceremonial sense of weight. It is not a track that unfolds, but one that engulfs, pulling the listener into a deeply immersive sonic space.

With Failing Light, DROMOS deliver a work conceived for full immersion. Rooted in funeral doom yet reaching into atmospheric and progressive territories, the album develops with deliberate restraint, revealing new layers through repetition, detail and emotional tension. It is a record built on presence and patience, where heaviness is experienced as much as it is heard.

The band states:

“With Failing Light, we wanted to create something that reveals itself over time, a record that offers new layers with each listen. Our focus was on textural density, tectonic patience and a near ceremonial weight, treating heaviness as a physical sensation as much as a sonic one.

By the end of the process, we found ourselves with a work that feels out of time, music shaped to trace the sharp edges of loss.”

Formed in 2019, DROMOS draws from London’s extreme underground, with members connected to acts such as Grave Miasma, Final Dose, Mutagenic Host and Eihort. While grounded in that background, the band pushes toward a more expansive and meditative sonic language, positioning itself within the most forward thinking edges of contemporary doom.

Further cementing their growing presence, DROMOS will bring their intense and immersive live performance to DesertFest London this May, marking a key step in their rise within the international heavy scene.

Failing Light stands as a defining record that bridges oppressive weight and vast atmosphere into a singular, deeply affecting experience.

Tracklist:

My Final Tomb – 12:17

Death Is Silence – 13:17

Sinking – 20:33

ERSEDU RELEASE "GORE"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

ERSEDU, a Ukrainian cinematic symphonic death metal project, will release their conceptual EP “GORE” on May 19, 2026.

 “GORE” is the first chapter of a planned series dedicated to colors, beginning with red - the first color perceived by the human eye and one of the earliest used in human art and rituals.

The EP explores red as a multifaceted symbolic system: death and sacrifice, blood and life, pain, passion, and love. These states intertwine in a dark, heavy, and emotionally charged space. The music is grim and atmospheric, filled with cinematic tension, dramatic contrast, and narrative depth. Each track stands as an independent story with its own emotional identity.

 

The four tracks are:

G O D O F W A R

O F F E R I N G

R E A P S O U L S

E R O S

The track titles form the acronym G.O.R.E., reinforcing the conceptual unity of the release.

 

The first two singles, “Eros” and “Offering”, are now available on all major streaming platforms: 

"Eros": https://push.fm/fl/ersedu-eros

"Offering": https://push.fm/fl/ersedu-offering

Musically, ERSEDU blends powerful orchestral arrangements with extreme metal to create a dark, narrative-driven, and cinematic sound. Influences include Septicflesh, Dimmu Borgir, Devin Townsend as well as Hollywood composers Alan Silvestri, Jerry Goldsmith, and Howard Shore.

The production was mixed and mastered at Fascination Street Studios (Amon Amarth, Arch Enemy, Opeth, among others).

In addition to the music, ERSEDU presents a self-created visual artbook that expands the EP’s universe. Filled with hidden details, Easter eggs, and symbolic imagery, each track is represented by its own characters and motifs.

The project’s mascot is an archetypal figure interpretable as Mother Nature.

Creation of “GORE” took four years instead of the planned one. The ongoing war in Ukraine profoundly shaped the process and infused the release with raw, grim intensity - making the color red feel especially personal and visceral.

DROUTH RELEASE VIDEO FOR "THE OUTER CHURCH"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Black/Death quartet, Drouth, in collaboration with Cvlt Nation, have premiered the video for new single, "The Outer Church." The song is taken from the forthcoming split release with Baltimore Black Metallers, Nixil, titled Toward Dead Temples. Just click and go below!

cvltnation.com/drouth-raging-black-metal-the-outer-church

"With this song, the band pulls you into their blackened universe of fury. Say it loud and proud: NO GODS, NO MASTERS, NO BOOTLICKERS! And always, Fuck White supremacy!"

- Cvlt Nation

"On Toward Dead Temples, we are gifted with 17 minutes of new Nixil across three tracks, followed by 11 minutes of new Drouth split between two tracks. All are worthy of your attention."

- Toilet ov Hell

The bands have each released a statement concerning their respective contributions to Toward Dead Temples, as follows:

Nixil: “Our contributions to Toward Dead Temples explore the spiritual depth of death and isolation. Through the use of imagery representative of the crumbling edifice of christo-fascism, we strive to push toward the eradication of the oppressor in all its manifestations. Sonically, this album marks a point of transition for us, beginning a deep dive into darker waters on a quest for stranger, more unsettling discordance. We are thrilled to be joining forces with our friends in Drouth to present this anthem of defiance against the crushing weight of impending dictatorship - until all tyrants and their temples fall.”

Drouth: “Originally recorded during The Teeth of Time sessions in late 2023, 'Cathartes Aura' and 'The Outer Church' stand on their own by representing both the past and future of Drouth. We are proud to share this release with our friends in Nixil and join them in spreading sonic misery throughout the West Coast this May.”

FFO: Enslaved, Ludicra, Blut Aus Nord, Altar of Plagues, Dawn, Black Curse, Ulcerate, Spectral Wound, Weakling, Sacramentum, Schammasch, Watain, The Ruins of Beverast

ACERBIC RELEASE "ABHORRENT ATROCITIES AGAINST ALL HUMANKIND"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

ACERBIC, the searing death-thrash powerhouse from Olympia, Washington, has officially unleashed their debut EP, Abhorrent Atrocities Against All Humankind , available now. Fusing relentless aggression with melodic darkness, ACERBIC delivers six devastating tracks built to wreck speakers and satisfy fans of Carcass , At The Gates , and Power Trip .

Founded in 2013 as a solo project by guitarist Chris Thompson, ACERBIC has evolved into a full-force unit featuring Gabriel Glandon on vocals, Xander Provencher on bass, Chris Hannan on drums, and Thompson holding down guitar duties. Drawing from old-school death metal grit and razor-sharp melodic precision, the band’s sound blends vicious riffing, menacing grooves, and dark, haunting leads into a crushing sonic assault.

The band first turned heads with their 2023 demo, featuring session drums by Dirk Verbeuren and blistering leads from Kragen Lum on “Despondent.” International features in Slowly We Rot magazine in Romania and Guts N Blood Records’ Rotten Pages #8 compilation in Peru laid the groundwork for the current lineup and the creation of this ferocious debut EP.

Recorded in August 2025 at Elektriccity Recording in Portland, Oregon, and mixed and mastered by Charlie Koryn in late 2025, Abhorrent Atrocities Against All Humankind captures ACERBIC at peak intensity. Gabriel’s guttural lows and piercing highs tear through the mix, backed by Hannan’s relentless drumming and Provencher’s six-string bass lines that weave seamlessly with Thompson’s razor-wire riffs. It is a front-to-back barrage with no filler and no apologies.

The lead single “Shallow Grave” arrives with a striking music video produced by J. Donovan Malley , while the EP’s hand-painted cover art by Matt Stikker visually embodies the record’s bleak intensity.

Abhorrent Atrocities Against All Humankind is available now in limited CD and cassette editions through the band’s Bandcamp page.

Hailing from Olympia’s thriving underground, ACERBIC continues to haunt stages along 4th Avenue, delivering uncompromising death-thrash the old-school way: loud, aggressive, and in your face.
