OBSIDIAN SKIES RELEASE NEW SINGLE: "UNMADE BY THE OCEAN"
.jpg)
PRESS RELEASE:
Progressive metal duo Obsidian Skies from Boulder, Colorado, USA, announces the release of their new single “Unmade by the Ocean”, a symphonic journey through a post-apocalyptic underwater world. The single marks the first offering from their upcoming full-length album to be released in 2025. The comment on the track:
“Unmade by the Ocean is heavy-hitting, rhythmic, and technically challenging, while still maintaining a very melodic core. With soaring solos on guitar, bass, and piano, it is a song with a unique and diverse sound. Lyrically, it tells the story of a small group of people who spent the years of Earth’s apocalypse underground, and must now come to terms with their new reality and find hope where there is none.”
Born from the creative partnership of Logan (guitar) and Tim (bass/vocals), former members of the band Endlight (2014-2017), Obsidian Skies emerged during the pandemic as the duo reunited to forge a new musical path. Their combined experience – Logan's formal composition training and Tim's technical background – brings a unique depth to their songwriting approach.
The track showcases the band's signature sound, combining technical progressive metal with neoclassical and symphonic elements. Distinctive piano and bass interplay creates a foundation for intricate melodic solos, while harsh vocals drive the narrative forward, punctuated by clean vocal sections that provide dynamic contrast. It is recommended for fans of Ne Obliviscaris, Alkaloid, and Amon Amarth.

Goat Ritual joining their ritualistic sonic assault in June 2024. Their debut EP represents a raw, uncompromising exploration of extreme metal's most primal instincts.

DISSONANT SEEPAGE RELEASE "DYSTOPIA PUTRESCENCE"
PRESS RELEASE:
Hailing from Rochester, New York, Dissonant Seepage have established themselves as one of the heaviest, most unflinchingly impactful exponents of brutal death metal around. They released a well received full length debut album – The Darkness Will Swallow You Whole – in 2023, but in 2025 Dissonant Seepage are ascending to the next level. Now signed to Comatose Music, home of the sickest and most savage sounds in existence, they are about to unleash their second album, Dystopian Putrescence, a shocking, sanity-shredding beast preaching from a gospel of corruption and decomposition.
Even amongst the dank and desolate horrors of brutal death metal, Dissonant Seepage are outliers, operating across a fearsome sonic spectrum of extremity. Songs like ‘Rotting Monument’ consume you, plunging you into a realm of lurching chaos, of violent tempos and riffs that writhe and squirm through trenches of filth, bottomless rifts of decay and despair. Sounds seem to be summoned from guitars where strings hang like loosely looped entrails from their necks and words erupt from the torn throats of the long dead. From ‘Gargling Nails’ to ‘Dead Carcass To Worship’ Dystopian Putrescence seals you within its chapel of infected flesh, attacking and disorientating again and again.
Recorded, mixed and mastered at the renowned Atrium Audio (August Burns Red, Rivers Of Nihil, Black Crown Initiate etc) Dystopian Putrescence sounds unfathomable in its grotesque weight and disturbing, suppurating textures, while the visual horror has been supplied by artist Pär Olofsson (Exodus, Immolation, Unleashed etc) whose distinctive imagery feeds the vile visions conjured by this collection of disfigured monstrosities. Comatose Music will send this plague out into the world on June 6th and there will be no escaping its wicked contamination.

VOLUCRINE RELEASE VIDEO FOR "THE VERGE"
PRESS RELEASE:
The Finnish modern metal band Volucrine released a new music video 'The Verge'. The track is taken from their latest ETNA album which was release last year via Inverse Records.
WATCH The Verge music video: https://youtu.be/LUBOS9nFCwI
Vocalist Jupe Velin comments:
"The ETNA cycle is nearing its end, and we want to wrap it up by releasing a music video for THE VERGE, a song that reflects on the 2023-2024 tour we did in support of the album. This album cycle has been the most important of the band’s career, starting with the release of the first singles. During this time, we grew into a fully-fledged band once again, survived the pandemic, played more shows than ever before, shattered all personal streaming records, released the most polished album of our career, and multiplied our fan base several times over.
Along the way, we also got to re-experience just how amazing the camaraderie in the band is. We truly enjoyed being on the road, and there was never a lack of laughter, even to the point of oxygen deprivation. And a HUGE thanks to the audience! We live for your accepting smiles, your raised fists, and the energy you give us, always coming back to us tenfold. This energy is what fueled the creation of THE VERGE music video, a party anthem about escaping reality, featuring footage captured from the road that radiates positive vibes.
We will begin recording our fifth Volucrine album in Kouvola this spring, with the goal of releasing fresh music before the end of the year. There are more than a dozen new tracks, and while the legacy of ETNA can certainly be heard in them, prepare to expect the unexpected, as is our band’s style. The album will once again be produced by the band’s bassist, Joni Kyynäräinen (KyySounds). Marko Orava and Erik Lindroos will make their debut on the guitars for this album."
You'll get a preview of the new material at Volucrine’s spring shows in Finland, as follows:
Bar Loose, Helsinki - April 9
Bar 15 Basement, Seinäjoki - May 3
Rage on Stage / Möysän Musaklubi, Lahti - May 10
LISTEN/BUY ETNA album: https://push.fm/fl/volucrine-etna
BIOGRAPHY:
Volucrine are a modern metal band that grew up by the cold Kymijoki river, in the shadows of Kouvola's concrete structures. Founded in 2009, Volucrine's mission has been, ever since the beginning, to tell stories of relatable emotions and challenges; to reflect and articulate humane themes beyond the borders of pain. The band's style of genre-defying melodic alternative metal with vigorous guitar riffs, catchy choruses, and varied, rich vocal arrangements has only grown and refined over the years. Volucrine's characteristic sound is created by mixing elements of progressive metal, melodic death metal and metalcore with the conventions of pop and rock music. This mixture creates a heartfelt but heavy style of music, where genuine emotion and primal frenzy go hand in hand.
At the beginning of 2024, the band released their fourth full-length album, ETNA, and were eager to get back on stage after spending a long time working in the studio. Volucrine thrive on energetic live shows and are a true force of nature on stage, bringing a positive energy and uncompromising power to each performance. Operating at the turning point of their 15-year journey, the reformed band is finally in its purest form and is ready for everything the future has to offer.
