A legendary chapter of hard rock history comes to a thunderous conclusion with “The Final Ride”, the ultimate live release from Lynch Mob, capturing the band’s final run on stage with uncompromising power, precision and attitude.

George Lynch described the record by saying: “Captured loud, raw, and exactly how it was meant to be heard, this is Lynch Mob firing on all cylinders.”

Available on CD/DVD, Blu-ray and LP, The Final Ride delivers a fully immersive live experience, meticulously recorded, mixed and mastered by Chuck Alkazian at Pearl Sound Studios, ensuring outstanding sonic clarity while preserving the raw intensity and immediacy of a true Lynch Mob performance.

The setlist is a powerful career-spanning journey, combining cornerstone Lynch Mob classics with three iconic Dokken-era songs that remain inseparable from George Lynch’s legacy. 

Explosive performances of “Lightning Strikes Again”, “It’s Not Love”, and “Paris Is Burning” ignite the crowd and serve as a direct bridge between past and present, while Lynch Mob anthems such as “River Of Love”, “No Good”, “Hell Child”, “Let The Music Be Your Master”, “Street Fighting Man”, and the timeless closer “Wicked Sensation” showcase the band at full force.

He is backed by a formidable lineup featuring Gabriel Colon (vocals), Jaron Gulino (bass) and Jimmy D’Anda (drums), delivering a tight, aggressive and emotionally charged performance worthy of the band’s legacy.

DOOMNEZEU Sign with Wormholedeath + Release New Single ‘Spânul’

Wormholedeath is pleased to announce the signing of Romanian doom metal band Doomnezeu to its roster. The band has entered a licensing agreement for the release of their forthcoming album “Dați drumul la cer”, with further details to be announced.

To mark the occasion, Doomnezeu has released “Spânul,” the first single from the album. The track is accompanied by a lyric video, available now on YouTube.

“Spânul” — “The Hairless” in English — takes its name from a recurring antagonist in Romanian fairy tales: a trickster figure who poses as a helper to the hero while covertly working against them. The band has described the song as a warning to lurking wrongdoers: God is always watching.

“Our deepest thanks to Wormholedeath for their gracious interest in our music!” The band stated. “We proudly announce that our upcoming album ‘Dați drumul la cer’ will be released on their Italian label. Beginning our journey together, we present to you the first single off the album, the song ‘Spânul’. This is a stark reminder to the lurking evildoers of the world: God is always watching. We look forward to seeing you all on tour starting on April 17th and to all the hard work still left on the album. Doomneajută!”

Stream ‘Spânul’ : orcd.co/spanul

The single release coincides with the start of an eight-date Romanian tour alongside Bossferatu and Dronisie Răsăriteanul, running from April 17 to 25.

About Doomnezeu

Doomnezeu began as a studio project in 2019, with the release of ‘La Viflaim Colo-n Jos’, a doom metal reinterpretation of a haunting Romanian Christmas carol. The name is a play on the words ‘Doom’ and ‘Dumnezeu’ (‘God’ in Romanian), expressing the band’s musical style and Christian message.

Over the next few years, the band released original songs on a regular basis, developing their mix of doom metal and ecclesiastical orthodox music. The first 6 of these songs were later released as a debut album in 2023, named simply ‘Doomnezeu’. The band was already touring Romania by this time, bringing a theatrical approach to live shows that had been missing in the Romanian metal scene up until then: masks, robes, secret identities, and ritualistic performances.

The year 2024 saw the release of a split album of epic breadth and scope, ‘Atotțiitorul’. For this release, Doomnezeu teamed up with Church of Cthulhu to deliver a story about the journey from the bottom of Hell to the peaks of Heaven.

In 2025, they released their latest album, ‘Al Doilea Legământ’, an EP containing 4 songs recorded live in the studio in August 2023, marking the moment of Doomnezeu’s transformation from a studio project into a full-fledged band. The band records and tours on a regular basis, and all artwork, merch, packaging and branding is designed in-house.

Doomnezeu has until now released 3 albums, all on CD and Vinyl and has toured multiple times across the entirety of Romania. The band had their major festival debut last Summer at Rockstadt Extreme Fest, and are currently recording for their next full-length album, ‘Dați drumul la cer’, set to be released on Italian label Wormholedeath.

ENEMY INSIDE Bury the Past & Dig into a Heavier Future with Brand New Video Single ‘R.I.P.’

With zero intention of playing it safe, ENEMY INSIDE return with their explosive new single ‘R.I.P.’, a track that doesn’t just close a chapter, it sets the whole damn book on fire.

‘R.I.P.’ is at its core about letting go, burying what no longer serves you, and moving on with clarity and intent. Armed with razor-edged riffs, industrial textures, and anthemic hooks, the band steps into a darker, heavier, and more uncompromising sonic identity than ever before – a bold evolution that signals the dawn of a new era.

“’R.I.P.’ might be one of the heaviest ENEMY INSIDE songs yet. A farewell to the past and everything that once tried to hold you back.” – Evan K. & Nastassja Giulia

Driven by the mantra “you cannot control me,” the track cuts deep, lyrically and sonically. Lines like “used to be the echo now I am the scream” perfectly capture the band’s transformation: louder, sharper, and impossible to ignore.

Musically, ‘R.I.P.’  pushes ENEMY INSIDE into heavier territory, combining their signature modern sound with heightened force, especially through more aggressive vocal delivery and powerful, cutting screams that underline the song’s emotional weight.

‘R.I.P.’ also arrives with a high-end, cinematic music video, continuing the band’s tradition of visually striking productions that amplify their sonic intensity.

The single offers a first glimpse into the band’s upcoming album (set for release via RPM), dialing their already uncompromising sound up to a whole new level of intensity.

To bring this new chapter to the stage, ENEMY INSIDE will join SMASH INTO PIECES as special guests on their April and May 2026 tour, delivering their high-energy live show across Europe.

This isn’t just a release.

It’s a burial. And ENEMY INSIDE are the ones holding the shovel.

RUTHLESS Release First Single ‘Curse Of The Beast’ from Upcoming Album

Posted by tarjavirmakari on April 19, 2026
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: . Leave a comment

Since the early 1980’s, lead by vocalist Sammy DeJohn, RUTHLESS has stayed true to its style of metal, from the classic first EP “Metal Without Mercy” (1984) and the debut cult album “Discipline Of Steel” (1986), to the later albums “They Rise” (2015)” and “Evil Within” (2019), they’ve never wavered on the power of bands like JUDAS PRIEST, ACCEPT and BLACK SABBATH, always staying true to their roots. Their previous album “The Fallen” was released in January 2024 on their new label Fireflash Records (WOLF, HOLY MOSES, MEZZROW a.o.), followed by a European tour as support act for their fellow believers JAG PANZER, cementing their reputation as a magnificent live band.

Today, RUTHLESS are proud to release the first single, along with a lyric video for the title track of their upcoming  new album “Curse Of The Beast”, which will be released on July 17th.

Sammy DeJohn adds: “The song is about a guy getting hit by a werewolf, (bitten by the beast, now victim of the curse you’ve become) he’s a man by day then turns into the beast or werewolf by nite, (forever in pain, waiting for you souls release), so it would be like guy turning into a werewolf at nite, attacking people and waking in the morning, being a man again regretting what he’s done.”

Along with the release of the title track “Curse Of The Beast”, RUTHLESS also kick-off the album pre-order. The new album is released on a CD Jewelcase, as well as on bestial red colored Vinyl, which is limited to 500 copies.  

The band has created an album full of power and passion, combined with the classic 80s metal sound, ready to become a future classic and a must-have for anyone who loves traditional heavy metal like METAL CHURCH, JUDAS PRIEST, EXCITER, and others.

“Curse Of The Beast” was recorded along with producer Ron Sandoval (KERRY KING a.o.), who also did the final mix and mastering. “We can’t wait for you all to hear it. We have a couple of surprises on this one and it’s going to destroy,” reveals vocalist Sammy. Immediately afterwards, the band will play selected shows in Europe, along with MINDWARS as well as THE TROOPS OF DOOM, including the legendary “Headbangers Open Air.”

F.O.A.D. Records Present Definitive Psychotic Thrash Archive from Cult Italian Expatriates LORD CRUCIFIER

Posted by tarjavirmakari on April 19, 2026
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: , . Leave a comment

A cult chapter of Italian extreme metal history returns in its most complete form, as F.O.A.D. Records present the definitive archival collection of early material from LORD CRUCIFIER, “Cataclism”, now available as a gatefold 2xLP edition.

“Cataclism” – Gatefold 2xLP

An 18-track descent into pure psychotic thrash metal—self-described by the band as “psychic metal”—capturing the unhinged vision of these Italian maniacs who relocated to England during the 1980s in search of total sonic extremity.

This comprehensive release brings together the band’s early demo legacy and unreleased material, fully remastered at Toxic Basement Studio:

  • “Cataclism” Demo (1985)
  • “Myra’s Tape” (1987)
  • “Who Do You Trust” (1989)
  • Unreleased 3-track rehearsal/demo (1990)

Across these recordings, LORD CRUCIFIER’s evolution is laid bare—from raw, dark thrash steeped in Venom and Celtic Frost influences to a more personal and deranged style defined by speed, fractured structures and psychotic riffing intensity.

Packaging:

The release comes as a deluxe gatefold 2xLP edition accompanied by a 24-page full-color booklet, designed by Rich M. Walker (The Metalchemist). The booklet includes rare photographs, flyers, scans of original demo tapes, and archival excerpts from underground magazines and fanzines.

A vital document of a band that turned chaos into identity, now unearthed and preserved by F.O.A.D. Records. Essential listening for devotees of extreme, unfiltered thrash in its most disturbed form.

ONLY SONS’ New Album “Through The Night Again” Out Now

ONLY SONS was formed in Krakow in 2018 by Daniel Kesler and Andrzej Nowak (whose lineup lasts until 2022). From the outset, the group operated as a quintet of musicians involved in numerous projects within the broadly defined metal scene: Redemptor, Moanaa, Ketha, Deivos, Outre, Ulcer, Taraban, and Post Profession.

Only Sons was initially a stoner metal project. Their debut album, “Love, Drugs, Treachery, and Deceit” (EP, 2018), maintains this stylistic style. In 2019, the band recorded their debut album, “Lions & Unicorns” which incorporated elements of progressive music, blues, and classic hard rock.

Up to 2021, the Krakow-based group had played numerous concerts alongside bands such as Corrosion of Conformity, Valey of the Sun, Yawning Man, and Bison BC; and at several of Poland’s biggest metal festivals: Mystic Festival, Summer Dying Loud, Red Smoke Festival, Rockowisko Zwierzyniec, and Bałtów Open Air.

In 2024, Only Sons added a new vocalist: Daniel Bala Suder (ex-Taraban).

Today, the Krakow-based band, led by Daniel Kesler, releases second album, “Through the Night Again” and is released independently in digital format (pre-save), on CD (pre-order), and later on vinyl. The album was recorded at Zed Studio (Frontside, Decapitated) and Kossa Buena Studio (Sztywny Pal Azji, Crystal Viper). Tomasz “Zed” Zalewski (Medico Peste, Dieth) handled the mix and mastering, while Bart Gabriel (Avenger,  Jag Panzer) handled the vinyl mastering. The album cover was created by Kuba Sokólski (Dormant Ordeal, Entropia), and the layout was created by Kontamination Design (Akhlys, Taake). The band’s logo was created by Xaay, and the band’s photo was taken by Pastor.

The new album by Only Sons features six original compositions in a retro/hard rock style.

The band’s leader comments on the new release: “It’s all here: twisted and technical riffs, melodic choruses, crazy and catchy guitar solos. We’ve expanded the instrumentation with keyboards/pads and samples, adding a variety of spacious sounds to the songs, which, combined with the highly diverse vocal parts, give Only Sons a completely new quality. Fans of bands such as Mastodon, Katatonia, Graveyard, Sentenced, and All Them Witches should feel right at home with us.“
