KINGSPHERE was established at the turn of 2019 and 2020 in Rybnik, Upper Silesia In Poland. Initially, a two-person project, over time it turned into a full-fledged band that is currently actively performing. Kingsphere’s music is a clash of modern metal with old school melodic death metal, and all this is seasoned with a solid dose of electronics. The band has released two self-produced albums: “Enigmatic” (2022) and “Kingsphere” (2021), available in digital distribution on the most popular streaming platforms.

Today, Kingsphere is releasing brand new song titled “The Cursed Epitaph“.

Band comments new song: “A haunting and atmospheric journey through emotional turmoil, inner conflict, and the metaphysical. Blending heavy riffs with electronic textures, the track explores themes of life after death, the search for those who have departed, and the longing to cross into their world. With dynamic shifts, immersive soundscapes, and introspective lyrics, it reflects the struggle to break free from mental chains and confront the weight of memory, grief, and existential desire. A powerful blend of modern metalcore and cinematic depth“.

Marek Kula is responsible for audio production as well as cover artwork and lyric video.

Since their formation, German individualists HARKON have been delivering sophisticated, melodic, and at the same time powerful HEAVY METAL.

After “The Errorist”, the North Rhine-Westphalians released their 3ʳᵈ single, “Blood Will Have Blood” on October 31.

Following their EP “Ruins Of Gold” (2019), the band’s long-awaited debut album “Love And Vore” is finally released via Doc Gator Records: a powerful work that balances catchiness and progressiveness, carried by strong hooks, anthemic choruses, and profound lyrics.

“‘Blood Will Have Blood’ is a proverb meaning that violence breeds more violence, a concept famously expressed by Macbeth in Shakespeare’s eponymous play. So this song is about action and consequence, about forgiveness and foolishness. About doing what maybe needs to be done even if it may seem like wasted time. Wait, is that why the song pays tribute to Iron Maiden’s ‘Wasted Years’ in the middle part? Who knows …”

For the powerful, transparent, and wonderfully organic overall sound of their songs, HARKON once again relied on a well-established producer duo: Cornelius Rambadt (Disbelief, Bonded, Sodom, The Very End) handled the recording and mixing, while Dennis Koehne (Lacuna Coil, Caliban, Orden Ogan) took care of the mastering.

The result is an organic, powerful, yet modern sound that perfectly captures the essence of Progressive and Melodic Heavy Metal.

CALCRAFT Release New Single And Video for ‘Perpetually Stabbed’

Posted by tarjavirmakari on November 3, 2025

San Antonio (TX) – U.S. Hateful Death Metal band, CALCRAFT, recently signed to Lifeforce Records are set to release their debut album, Reborn Through Torture, on November 21st digitally, with physical album release on January 30th.

The band now return with the second single from the new effort, Perpetually Stabbed. CALCRAFT also shot a music video for the new song, in style of 1990’s Death Metal videos.

Calcraft takes it’s lyrical inspiration from Giallo horror and classic American slasher films. This is not a brand new frontier for American Death Metal, but more of a continuation of it’s honored tradition. Comparable to the tropes horror audiences are accustomed to when seeing a new film at the cinema. Perpetually Stabbed could be seen as the apex of this thematic homage of horror for the album; it’s the band at it’s most visceral. 

With the uncompromising credo “Unrelenting death metal. No trends. No mercy.” CALCRAFT define their sound – and with their debut album “Reborn Through Torture”, they deliver a merciless statement against anything watered-down or trend-driven.

The Texas-based outfit stands for raw, hate-fueled death metal, deeply rooted in the legacy of Immolation, Suffocation, and Incantation. But CALCRAFT go further: their songs are steeped in dark atmosphere, thrashy aggression, and a cinematic violence that feels ripped straight from the bloodiest scenes of Giallo and slasher films.

Their name is no coincidence – William Calcraft, England’s infamous executioner, serves as a grim source of inspiration. Like their namesake, CALCRAFT show no mercy: their music is an auditory noose, each track an execution. “Reborn Through Torture” is a blood-soaked manifesto of riffs, madness, and horror, dragging the listener into a world of pain and cinematic carnage.

Each song tells a story – of insanity, torture, and final breaths. CALCRAFT don’t aim to entertain; they aim to disturb. Their goal is to create a threatening sonic landscape that sounds like “a blood-soaked soundtrack to the final scene you never survive.”

Those who face this album won’t be spared. CALCRAFT hold themselves to their own brutal standard – and deliver death metal in its most relentless, uncompromising form.

The heavy metal visionaries collectively known as AVATAR — vocalist Johannes Eckerström, guitarists Jonas Jarlsby and Tim Öhrström, bassist Henrik Sandelin, and drummer John Alfredsson — have finally unleashed their latest masterwork Don’t Go in the Forest. Listen and get the album HERE.

Regarding the album, Eckerström has explained, “The secret ingredient is that we still feel like we’re just getting started. Don’t Go In The Forest is an album filled to the brim with stuff we’ve never done before. It’s all songs and concepts we haven’t been close to touch until now. The mind is wild and we have lost ourselves in the darkest woods, filled with memories, and fantasies. Forbidden thoughts that must be spoken.”

Watch the video for title track:

He furthered, “It would have been impossible to make this album at any other time than now. That’s all we ever wanted, and I think you’ll find it’s all you ever wanted too.”

Avatar’s growth and momentum has only accelerated in recent years. There’s the critically acclaimed, 2023-released album Dance Devil Dance, which included their first #1 at Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Airplay, “The Dirt I’m Buried In.” There have been scores of sold-out headline shows across the globe, and an actual fossil named after them. The list goes on and on.

DON’T GO IN THE FOREST TRACK LISTING:
“Tonight We Must Be Warriors“
“In The Airwaves”   
“Captain Goat”   
“Don’t Go In The Forest”   
“Death And Glitz”   
“Abduction Song”   
“Howling At The Waves”   
“Dead And Gone And Back Again”   
“Take This Heart And Burn”   
“Magic Lantern”

Avatar will spend the foreseeable future (if not forever) on the road. See below for a complete rundown of the band’s planned tour activity for the next two years. Avatar shows no signs of pausing to take a breath in their quest for absolute world domination — much less stopping. Check all tour dates HERE.
