Having made their debut earlier this year with the singles “Terminal Phase” and “Digital Tear”, dystopian goth rock powerhouse ORDER return today with another grand, emotionally charged release. The new single “Into The Silence” embraces the listener with both intensity and comfort, continuing along the path ORDER have established, where dark tones, electronic sounds, and hauntingly beautiful melodies exist in perfect balance.
“Like ORDER’s songs generally, this track deals with big questions. Sometimes it’s difficult to recognise your own feelings, let alone put them into words. When your thoughts keep going round in circles and your mind retreats deeper and deeper into a dark place, finding a way out can be difficult.”
“Sometimes, our own strength or abilities aren’t enough to work through things alone. One of the hardest things is admitting your vulnerability and allowing yourself to need help. There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Quite the opposite,” says Daniel Tähkä.
From the very beginning, the duo formed by Daniel and Saku Solin, known for his work with Turmion Kätilöt, have created powerful mental imagery and cinematic elements through their music. “Into The Silence” now comes with an official visual counterpart: a music video written, filmed, edited, directed, and produced by the duo themselves. The video is available to watch here.
“When we were discussing the music video for ‘Into The Silence’, Daniel came up with the bold idea of making it ourselves. We were also drawn to the idea of expanding our creative work beyond music and getting hands-on with the visual side of things. The video took a lot of work and effort, as all great things do, but the end result speaks for itself,” says Solin.
Progressive post-metal four-piece BIPOLAR ARCHITECTURE has unveiled “Vanity Fair”, the first single from their upcoming third studio album, “The Worrier”, set for release on February 19,2027, via Pelagic Records.
Based on John Bunyan’s “The Pilgrim’s Progress”, “Vanity Fair” unfolds as an allegorical tale of condemnation, blending brutal chugging riffs, soaring melodies and explosive percussion with lamenting clean vocals and rasping howls. Shifting between hypnotic catchiness, macabre breakdowns and quieter passages, the track draws listeners in before striking with raw power, while maintaining relentless momentum. “Vanity Fair” is released alongside a brand new music video, which you can watch below.
Co-existing between Berlin and Istanbul, BIPOLAR ARCHITECTURE fuse post-metal, djent and black metal into a sound rooted in a tension between brutality and melody, weight and atmosphere, capturing the anxieties of modern life. Having toured with THE OCEAN last year, and after receiving rave reviews, their much-anticipated new album, “The Worrier”, sees that tension become more pronounced and more dimensional than ever. The band retains the raw, volatile energy that has defined their sound, while opening the music towards post-hardcore and metalcore, introducing a greater emphasis on melody, vocal interplay and memorable song structures that enhance their intensity.
Reflecting on the meaning behind the album title, vocalist/guitarist Sarp Keski explains: “I wanted to choose this title because somehow it represents the general idea of the album. The struggles of life, the mental side of trying to survive; depression, anger, empathy and sympathy all together. Most of our songs are based on our life experiences. I want to present the raw feelings that we all have, trying to survive this life and to make a connection with people who feel the same.“
Tracklist:
1. The Worrier 2. Vanity Fair 3. Untouchable 4. My Constant 5. Boşluk 6. Hollow Hands
On “The Worrier”, the addition of clean vocals expands BIPOLAR ARCHITECTURE’s sonic palette. Sarp Keski’s characteristic harsh delivery is complemented by clean vocals from bassist Niklas Arnet and guitarist Stefanos Kaisaris, adding deeper vocal layers and memorable melodic parts while retaining the rough, volatile energy that defines the band’s sound.
“This new addition of clean vocals has given me so much perspective that I could not introduce to the sound before” says Sarp Keski. “I think it progressed the song-writing phase in a different way. I wanted to keep the whole raw and frenzy atmosphere of our sound, but to add these deep vocal layers on it along with some memorisable vocal parts that are hard to achieve with only brutal/screaming vocals.“
“The Worrier” is a record that preserves BIPOLAR ARCHITECTURE‘s intensity whilst giving it greater range. Its three-way vocal interplay, layered guitars, forceful rhythm section and increasingly post-hardcore/metalcore-oriented songwriting represent a significant step forward for the band. Above all, the album sounds like four musicians pushing towards the same emotional idea, converging and balancing the hypnotic and the novel, serving both the longtime fans and giving an accessibility that will surely hook new listens.
The album will be out February 19, 2027, via Pelagic Records and is available for pre-order HERE
Australian hard rock/metal project 1THIRTY8 returns with “Aligned Again,” the second single and lyric video from the forthcoming debut album A Reckless Game.
“Aligned Again” addresses the experience of recognizing when one has lost direction, confronting that reality, and choosing to realign with one’s purpose — framed around the idea of taking a second chance and finding the drive to start again despite the risks involved.
The track follows lead single “In Vain” and continues to build out A Reckless Game, which combines heavy metal aggression and power with melodic hard rock songwriting and progressive, experimental arrangements. The album features guest performances from Emo Alaeddin on vocals and James Knoerl on drums, alongside Karl Szulik’s guitar and bass work, and was mixed and mastered by Simone Mularoni of Domination Studio. A Reckless Game is aimed at fans of heavy metal, hard rock and progressive music who value strong songwriting, dynamic arrangements and emotionally driven themes.
Doom/post-metal trio BLOOD OF THE EARTH, featuring former members of CROWBAR and THE CONVALESCENCE, have released their new single, “The Constellation,” the latest offering from their forthcoming EP, Beneath A Sky That Breaks, released independently today, on October 23rd.
A striking example of the band’s continued creative evolution, “The Constellation” revisits a composition originally featured on their debut EP, rebuilding it from the ground up with a renewed sense of purpose. The result is a sprawling, dynamic track that moves between moments of restraint and explosive heaviness, capturing the band’s ability to push beyond the traditional boundaries of doom and post-metal.
Katie Golden reflects on the song’s progression:
“‘The Constellation’ has transformed significantly since its original instrumental version on our first EP. Bringing lyrics and vocals into the song gave it a much deeper meaning and intensity, while the revisions allowed us to really explore what the song could become. It feels like we finally brought it to life in the way we always imagined.“
Jeff Golden adds:
“‘The Constellation’ comes to life with atmosphere, haunting sounds, and heaviness from the vocals of both J Costa and Katie. They each bring something completely different to the song, and when those voices come together with the heaviness of the music, it gives the track a much stronger identity.“
“The Constellation” follows the band’s recent reinterpretation of MINISTRY’s industrial metal classic “Filth Pig” and the previously released original single “Petrichor.” Together, the tracks offer a compelling introduction to Beneath A Sky That Breaks, a five-song collection that finds BLOOD OF THE EARTH expanding their sonic palette while maintaining the raw power and uncompromising heaviness at the heart of their sound.
1. Beneath A Sky That Breaks 2. The Constellation 3. Barren Oasis 4. Petrichor 5. Filth Pig (Ministry Cover)
Founded by married musicians Jeff Golden (ex-Crowbar) and Katie Golden (ex-The Convalescence), alongside vocalist J. Costa (Thy Will Be Done), BLOOD OF THE EARTH draw from doom, sludge, post-metal and industrial influences to create a sound that balances immense sonic weight with unsettling atmosphere and emotional intensity.
Recorded with producer Ryan Boesch (Melvins, Whores), Beneath A Sky That Breaks marks an ambitious step forward for the trio. Across five tracks, the band explores the interplay between distortion and melody, crushing rhythms and eerie electronics, building a collection that is as immersive as it is heavy.
BLOOD OF THE EARTH Tour Dates:
Nov 14 – Tampa, FL @ Tampa Doom & Gloom Fest ( w/ Novembers Doom) Nov 15 – Lake Worth, FL @ Propaganda
Following up their 2026 European tour that saw seven of their solo headline shows sell out across nine countries and thirteen performances, Japan’s BROKEN BY THE SCREAM continues their rapid ascent with their latest single, “Parallel Universe,” out today on Metal Blade Records.
Featuring the band’s dynamic four-vocalist lineup of Tsubaki Nanaougi, Shizuku Mikogami, Yayoi Takayashiki, and Io Nozukidaira, the new track sees the group further pushing their unique blend of soaring melodies, vicious screams and punishing metallic aggression.
The band comments, “Just as the truth of heliocentrism once overturned a world where geocentrism was considered common sense, falling in love can completely transform a life that once revolved around oneself. ‘What if I had done things differently?’ ‘What if I had chosen another path?’ As we struggle, hesitate, and make choices among countless possibilities, each decision leads us toward a different future. ‘Parallel Universe’ is a song about love, choice, and the different worlds that may unfold beyond them.”
“Parallel Universe” follows the band’s first release for Metal Blade Records, “花鏑[HANAKABURA]” [streaming HERE] and arrives after a hugely successful European and UK tour that saw BROKEN BY THE SCREAM perform to predominantly sold-out venues across the continent. The tour culminated in a massive performance at Wacken Open Air, where the band took the Louder Stage – one of the festival’s main stages – and delivered their explosive live show to a huge audience.
With their boundary-pushing sound, four-vocalist attack and increasingly powerful live presence, BROKEN BY THE SCREAM are rapidly establishing themselves as one of the most distinctive and exciting acts in modern heavy music. “Parallel Universe” marks the next chapter in that ascent.
2027 tour dates being announced very soon!
BROKEN BY THE SCREAM is: Tsubaki Nanaougi – vocals Shizuku Mikogami – vocals Yayoi Takayashiki – vocals Io Nozukidaira – vocals
Finnish industrial metal pioneers TURMION KÄTILÖT proudly announce the release of their highly anticipated twelfth studio album, Resodance, out today via Nuclear Blast Records. The new record marks another milestone in the band’s evolution, seamlessly blending their signature electronic-infused metal chaos with deep, conceptual artistry.
Produced by Mikko Tegelman alongside the band, Resodance masterfully captures the raw intensity and immediacy of Turmion Kätilöt’s legendary live performances. At the same time, it introduces a carefully constructed conceptual framework that sets it apart from traditional releases.
As vocalist and co-founder MC Raaka Pee describes it:
“Resodance completes a circle while continuing an endless cycle, much like the Ouroboros – the eternal serpent devouring its own tail. Every song represents an hour, every note its own colour and character. Across twelve tracks unfolds a continuous dance of resonance, where every moment finds its own distinct tone.”
This overarching philosophy runs deep throughout the record. Rather than simply delivering another collection of individual songs, Resodance presents a dynamic, 12-track journey where tension, melody, and heavy industrial rhythms constantly interact. The result is a sonic experience that feels both grandly cinematic and aggressively immediate.
To celebrate the global release, the band has also dropped an epic, visually stunning music video for the new focus track, ‘Näe Minut’.
The album comes in following formats: CD jewelcase 1 LP sleeve red & black marbled vinyl 1 LP sleeve transparent red & black marbled vinyl
Tracklist: Nostajat Kunnioita Pöytäviinaa Ja Pimeitä Naisia Amon-Ra Hallelujah! Näe Minut Lunastakaa Karma Levolle Laske Teloitus Raivotarjonta In Our Dreams (to be continued 1)
The Ultimate Live Spectacle: Colossal Disco
The strategic release of Resodance serves as the perfect fuel for the band’s most massive headlining milestone to date.
On October 24, 2026—just one day after the full record drops—TURMION KÄTILÖT will host their monumental “Colossal Disco” event at the legendary Helsinki Ice Hall (Helsingin jäähalli).
Several thousand fans are set to pack the arena, ready to bring the ice-ring to a definitive boil.
To further support the new release, the band will take their legendary, high-octane live show across Europe in February 2027. The tour promises to bring the industrial dance floor to life, featuring a mix of brand-new tracks from Resodance alongside fan-favorite anthems.
