HUMANITY’S LAST BREATH Release New Single And Lyric Visualizer ‘Anthracite’

The long run from the abyss is finally over: Sweden’s masters of aural dissonance and unapologetic heaviness, HUMANITY’S LAST BREATH, have shared their first new music after signing to Century Media Records in April last year.

The new track called “Anthracite” is a dark, intense journey through ascension and liberation from the physical realm, and dives right into the abyss. The track was written and produced by Buster Odeholm and Calle Thomér, and additional sounddesign comes from Code: Pandorum.

The video was created by Tuomas Kurikka and Patrik Nuorteva of Riivata Visuals.

The new track seamlessly ties to the band’s signature thall sound, encompassing elements of Djent, Doom, Deathcore and an apocalyptic sense of atonal atmosphere and calculated chaos.

Formed over a decade ago as brainchild and creative outlet for guitarist and producer Buster Odeholm (who also plays with Swedish progressive metal legends, Vildhjarta and drums with metalcore standard-setters, Thrown) and vocalist Filip Danielsson, HUMANITY’S LAST BREATH continue to raise the standards and expand the lexicon of extreme sounds for metal.

Starting on April 12th in Tokyo, HUMANITY’S LAST BREATH will embark on a short headline run to Japan, before starting their US & CAN tour with Angelmaker, Psychoframe & The Gloom In The Corner.

Depressive black metallers GHOST BATH have emerged from beyond the veil with their new album, Rose Thorn Necklace, which will be released on May 9th via Nuclear Blast Records.  The band, in their 12th year of existence, are not in the business of softening the edges. Rather, the frontman (Nameless aka Dennis Mikula) is leaning more toward his antisocial traits, serrated like a rusty knife yet beautifully honed over years of toil.

The band unveil the atmospheric second single, ‘Well, I Tried Drowning’. Watch the video directed by Claudio Marino of Artax Film.

GHOST BATH comments, “‘Well, I Tried Drowning’ is a plea for death, not by my own hand but for someone else to do the courtesy as I have not been able to bring myself to do. It is a fantasy -rooted in wishful thinking- that someone would cut my throat in my sleep, finally ending my life as I drown in my own blood. Wish fulfillment in blunt, gory detail.”

Rose Thorn Necklace was recorded in 2024 between January and June. The drums were recorded and engineered by Mike Heller at Heaven and Heller Studios while the remaining sections were completed by Nameless (Dennis Mikula) at his home studio. The album was mixed and mastered by Jack Shirley. The cover artwork was created by Ksenija Tarasova. Free from the Moonlover–Starmourner-Self Loather conceptual trilogy, sole proprietor Nameless (aka Dennis Mikula) explores the most intense and introspective music from GHOST BATH’s oeuvre, advancing with blackened blasts and melancholic movements while moving his only child forward into the unknown.

Finnish Psychedelic Dark Folk Duo UNILUKKARI Release Debut Album “Metsänpeitto”

Posted by tarjavirmakari on April 7, 2025
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: UNILUKKARI. Leave a comment

Unilukkari (Finnish noun)
1. a church officer who would wake up sleeping people
2. (figuratively) one who provokes or arouses discussion, etc.

The debut album of new Finnish psychedelic dark folk duo UNILUKKARI was released on the 5th of April. Titled “Metsänpeitto” (Finnish for Forest Cover), the album delves deep into Finnish folklore and legends – especially their more obscure and strange side.

The album’s lyrics and spoken word segments are courtesy of Tonttufindergeneral Hanz-Baal (TFG), known from the martial industrial band TONTTU, while the instruments are performed by Markiisi.

“When we started working on this project, it was clear from the beginning that the subject would be Finnish mythology” says Markiisi. “However, we wanted to bring a fresh perspective to the material in some way. Quite a lot of folk metal and neofolk has been made about this subject, so we ended up with a slightly different approach, which came quite naturally from the depths of Finnish folklore. Finnish mythology has a lot of strange beliefs and peculiar characters, from which TFG drew inspiration from for the lyrics. Based on that, I got the idea to combine psychedelic folk with alternative rock and dark ambient.”

The album utilizes segments performed on traditional instruments like the jawharp, the kantele and the goat horn, to strengthen the folkloristic atmosphere. The psychedelic and ethereal synth soundscapes carry the listener from track to track. In places the album leans more towards folk, while in other places the songs turn into pure rock music, while also giving space for ambient interludes. As a whole, “Metsänpeitto” is a conventionally unconventional experience.

The album was released through Savo-Karelian Productions, and is available as a digital download and CD here.

FIFTEEN STITCHES Release ‘Light Psycho’ Music Video

Fifteen Stitches, the Washington South Sound quartet channeling the Pacific Northwest’s grunge legacy into a modern hard rock beast, has dropped the official music video for “Light Psycho.” This relentless hard rock anthem is straight out of a slasher flick! With razor-sharp riffs and lyrics that dive deep into the mind of a deranged predator, this track drips with intensity, obsession, and pure horror.

Fusing the band’s live energy and channeling classic horror films, the Light Psycho video captures Fifteen Stitches’ passion for performance with a touch of humor, adding a twisted edge to the madness.

Fueled by raw energy and unhinged aggression, “Light Psycho” delivers a sinister dose of fear, control, and chaos. Is this track a literal ode to serial killer chaos? Or a metaphor for the monsters we bury within? Press play… if you dare to find out.

“Light Psycho” is taken from Fifteen Stitches’ EP Beyond The Wall, out via Wormholedeath. The record dives deep into humanity’s struggles, inner demons, and the search for a better future, delivering a crushing fusion of hard rock, prog, glam, and grunge.

🎧 Stream the EP: orcd.co/beyondthewall

Hailing from the South Sound of Washington, Fifteen Stitches is a sonic powerhouse featuring Tim Perdue (vocals), Chris Pasinetti (guitar), Rob Field (bass), and James Ortega (drums). With roots in bands like Cries of Tammuz, Painted Window, and The Ventures, the band channels the raw spirit of the Pacific Northwest’s legendary music scene.

Hungarian heavy metal fusionists TERRA NULLIUS proudly unveil the music video for “Tiéd a szabadság”, a track from their latest album, Magam Bajnoka, out now via Wormholedeath.

This deeply emotional and musically striking piece blends Terra Nullius’ signature fusion of heavy metal and classical influences, making for an unforgettable listening experience.
