With their untamed female lead vocals and haunting melodies, the new wildfire named FOREVER STILL started to spread from Denmark and is ready to burn down every shore with their first studio release “Tied Down”, out on October 21st. The band now published their second album trailer and in this clip, singer Maja Shining speaks about the writing of her lyrics and explains where the inspiration for the album came from.

Watch the video here:

“Pieces of the lyrics will usually come randomly during my daily activities and I’ll record them on my phone or I’ll write them down. And sometimes it can be one little word that will put the final piece into the puzzle!”, Maja explains. “I’m not sure, if I’ll ever be able to talk about those things that I sing about. That’s why I make music about it.”

With a pinch of LACUNA COIL and a hint of FLYLEAF and BRING ME THE HORIZON, the female-fronted rock inferno FOREVER STILL mixes heavy guitars with melancholic sounds and just recently signed to Nuclear Blast.

Even though the band just recently signed to Nuclear Blast, they already released two haunting music videos.

NervoChaos-2016

Brazilian death metal lords NERVOCHAOS have just released their eighth episode of the documentary “Around the world in 30 minutes”, check it out on the band’s website, as the former ones if you missed them: ww.nervochaos.net

This month the band is celebrating 20 years of career and is considered one of the leading bands in the history of the National Metal. The band was formed on September 7, 1996, with the idea of a nervous and aggressive sound without holding the pre-stipulated labels.

Since then were six studio albums, one live album, one box with DVD, a documentary and thousands of shows around the world, always keeping in the underground values and taking the maxim “hard work” literally.

Soon more information about the new material and the commemorative 20 years box will be announced.
