In agreement with the band and while awaiting the release of SCHIZO‘s new and highly anticipated studio album, Punishment 18 Records has reissued all the full-length albums from the career of the legendary Italian thrash/black/death metallers Schizo: “Main Frame Collapse” (1989), “Cicatriz Black” (2007), “Hallucination Cramps” (2010), and “Rotten Spiral” (2016). The reissues will be available starting November 28th.
ERADICATOR releases the new single ‘Into Oblivion (live)’ from the upcoming album ‘Alive In The Dead Eye Of The Vortex’, out on 21 November.
The second single release from ERADICATOR’s upcoming live album is the title track from their fourth LP, ‘Into Oblivion’. Far from being forgotten by the Thrasher from Germany, this song is regularly performed live, where it unleashes its full power – a pounding mid-tempo track that immediately compels you to headbang. At the ‘Evil Twisted Metal Feast’ in Siegen, the audience showed how intensely and grippingly this track unleashed their energy!
With his characteristic double bass salvos, drummer Pitti drives the song to its climax: while Seba makes his guitar scream, Zoppe and Robb are clearly having fun on stage – even grabbing each other’s fretboards.
A rainy Saturday afternoon in 2004: a wild bunch of teenagers meet in their rehearsal room, a small chamber in a barn in the tranquil Sauerland region. Wearing Kreator, Judas Priest and Metallica shirts, the newly formed band covers the classics of their heroes – the foundation for ERADICATOR is laid!
Twenty years later, the thrashers celebrate their anniversary with a special home game. Together with “Vortex Club” in Siegen, they launched the ‘Evil Twisted Metal Feast’ in October 2024. Six bands, 250 fans, an unforgettable evening and the decision to capture this moment.
With ‘Alive In The Dead Eye Of The Vortex’, ERADICATOR is now releasing an 11-song live album that thrashes through the band’s entire history. Four tracks from the current LP ‘The Paradox’ are also included. With ‘Evil Twisted Mind’, the song that gave the concert its name, one of their oldest songs returns, which was already featured on their first release, the demo ‘Back To The Roots’ (2007). History also repeats itself behind the controls: producer Jörn Michutta, who was already responsible for the demo, has shaped the live tracks into a dynamically thunderous mix that perfectly captures the energy and atmosphere of the evening.
Sebastian Jerke is responsible for the cover design, which ensures a galactic reunion with the plaque bringer.
Anyone familiar with ERADICATOR knows that they make no compromises when it comes to live performances. And now everyone else can experience this first-hand on record!

Peruvian band Saloma, one of the brightest rising stars of the power folk metal scene, announces the release of their new single and music video “Ángel de Acero”, a historic collaboration with renowned Italian vocalist Fabio Lione, celebrated for his work with legendary bands such as Angra, Rhapsody, and Vision Divine. This is the first time Fabio Lione performs an entire song in Spanish.
Staying true to their pirate-themed concept, Saloma’s members appear as a corsair crew in the video. The big surprise comes when Fabio Lione steps onscreen as a pirate captain, sailing from Italy to join the Peruvian band and perform a powerful duet with Saloma’s lead singer, Gustavo Michael.
The song narrates fantastic events within a fictional pirate universe, where reality is reshaped by mysterious characters and small changes that alter the course of universal history.
“When Fabio heard the song, he immediately loved it and felt inspired to sing on it. Seeing him dressed as a pirate was something no one could have expected — and now the whole world will see it. It’s also the very first time he sings in Spanish, which makes this release even more special. ‘Ángel de Acero’ represents the biggest creative effort our band has ever made, and the fans are already recognizing it.” — Gustavo Michael (Vocals)
With their original concept and sound, Saloma has established itself as one of the most promising bands in the Peruvian metal scene. In 2024, they won Wacken’s Metal Battle Peru, earning the right to represent the country at the regional finals in Ecuador, sharing the stage with winners from other nations. The band has already opened shows for international artists such as Spanish singer José Andrea (ex-Mägo de Oz) and the Spanish folk metal band Lèpoka, further proving their rapid rise and growing reputation.
If you’ve ever been told to vanish, this song is your Psalm of reckoning. Sweden’s thrash metal titans Methane are back to share a powerful new lyric video for “Blood Red Sky,” from the savage album Kill It With Fire. This anthem roars with defiance, honoring the fierce resilience of Native Americans through unapologetic riffs and relentless energy.
With lyrics that echo war drums by Tim Scott, the video captures the raw spirit of strength and survival. Bobby Steele, a Native American actor and DJ, served as the cultural advisor for the song, emphasizing the band’s commitment to honoring Indigenous heritage. As Tim Scott, lyricist and songwriter, stated, “This song is our tribute to the unyielding spirit of those who have faced unimaginable challenges.”
Adding to the fire, guest guitarist CJ Scioscia from the legendary Blood Feast delivers a blistering solo that will leave fans thrashing. “Blood Red Sky” serves as a battle cry, reminding us of hope and resilience in the darkest of times, echoing the struggles of those who endured the Long Walk in 1864.
For fans of Slayer , Kreator , and Municipal Waste , Methane deliver thrash metal with meaning — a sound that’s both brutally fast and fiercely human.
The lyric video for “A Blood Red Sky” dropped November 7, 2025, and will be streaming across all major platforms.
About Methane Born in a toxic haze of groove metal in 2012, Methane evolved into a relentless thrash machine, channeling the pure energy of classic metal aggression. Founders Tim Scott and Jimi Mästerbo have led the charge across Europe and the U.S., sharing stages with legends like Whiplash , Warbringer , Nervosa , and Massacre , and demolishing festival stages such as Sabaton Open Air , Speed Metal Party , and In Flammen Open Air .

Founded in Łódź in 1991, Tenebris is one of Poland’s most original and long-running metal bands. “Kochanowski” is a musical continuation of their 2018 EP, “Legendarna”, and delves into the surprising, esoteric side of Polish poet Jan Kochanowski. The band’s frontman, Siwy Jaszy, discovered that Kochanowski’s epigrams were a labyrinth based on Pythagorean numerology, transforming the poet into a figure of magical arts.
The album’s creative process began in 2021 and was completed in 2025, with lyrics drawing from literary giants like Kochanowski, Słowacki, Adam Mickiewicz. The new record features special guests, including Maciej Pasiński (ex Sirrah, Pincer Consortium) on backing vocals and growls, Paweł Szamburski on clarinet, and Sylwia Levy on backing vocals.
The band recently participated in a special listening session and meeting at Radio Łódź, which also featured Tomasz Krajewski from Pagan Records.
The current lineup consists of: Siwy Jaszy – vocals, guitar Bartek Polny – bass guitar Przemysław Dominiak – guitar Grzegorz Graczyk – drums
