After establishing themselves as one of the most interesting new bands of the Finnish melodic death metal scene with the first two records, Thy Kingdom Will Burn has definitely found a peculiar, moving voice.
“The Loss And Redemption” is by far their most personal work: musically-wise, the album is massive, pitch-black dark, and beautifully melancholic at the same time – once again the guys have pushed themselves to the next level as songwriters and musicians.
The lyrics deal with loneliness and longing to escape the chaos of modern life – something we can all easily identify with.
Thy Kingdom Will Burn are magnificent torchbearers of darkness & light, gloom & hope, in that quite unique Finnish fashion!
“The Loss And Redemption” tracklist:
Perpetual Void
Obscure Existence
Martyrs Of Killing Floor
Forever In Dark
Escape From Solitude
Suffering Sky
They Have Come
Dreams Of Calamity
To End Of Times

Belgian symphonic heavy metal act MAGIC KINGDOM has unleashed a brand new single taken off their upcoming studio album, entitled Blaze Of Rage, slated for a December 13th release on Massacre Records! The band’s sixth full-length will be available as CD, Ltd. Vinyl 2-LP and Digital, the pre-sale is available at: https://lnk.to/blazeofrage
It is the first time Dushan Petrossi (guitars/keyboards) wrote a concept album for MAGIC KINGDOM. Its songs and album structure were written according to the story, which had to follow the chapters, like in a book or a movie, in 12 different sections. He focused on very strong, catchy choruses and developed a full story with everything being related to and linked with each other. The fullest potential is reached in the song “The Great Retribution”, which sees the return of opera singers (soprano and baritone/tenor) and death/black screams together with the traditional metal voice of the band’s vocalist Michael Vescera.
Still, Blaze Of Rage is full of surprises. It’s symphonic, of course, but also offers very aggressive parts, blast beats, while thrash and heavy metal are combined with melodic and progressive elements, which all turned into something very unique that you don’t hear often in this formatted music world, where many bands sound the same.
Petrossi spent a lot of time arranging and composing the orchestra and big choirs that were used to create a full epic and symphonic feeling for the listener, almost resembling a movie soundtrack but with the rage of the purest metal. It took the band more than 4 years to finish the album, always fine-tuning and changing parts during the process. Out of 20 songs that were written, the band carefully chose the very best songs to be featured on this album. The band took their time to mix and master everything (with Mendel bij de Leij at Mendel Audio) to make sure that Blaze Of Rage sounds perfect, and to get the punch and the sophistication of classical, clever arranged, music with the power of the best aggressive and melodic metal just right!

Today marks the release of “We Go Off Tonight,” the latest single from the trailblazing Scandinavian rock band, SYMPHONY OF SWEDEN. Known for their cinematic melodies and hard-hitting instrumentation, the band is now pushing boundaries with a fresh, modern sound that fuses electronic beats, heavy guitars, and orchestral elements.
Lead vocalist Lee describes the track as a culmination of the band’s creative journey to craft a hybrid sound that’s both innovative and undeniably Symphony of Sweden.“We’ve always loved experimenting, and this time we wanted more — more energy, more layers, and more impact. It’s the ultimate party anthem, blending real drums, electronic beats, and killer melodies. When that big drum hits, there’s no way you’ll stay seated!”
Keyboardist and producer Evan adds, “We aimed for a hybrid that combines heavy metal riffs with a super catchy chorus. Something in the spirit of bands like Electric Callboy but still uniquely us. Henrik Bodin-Sköld played a huge role in bringing this to life with his incredible guitar riffs. Once we had that foundation, the production just clicked into place.”
With its upbeat vibe, “We Go Off Tonight” is a celebration of new beginnings — perfectly timed for the holiday season. Lee shares, “It’s about ending a chapter with energy and charging into the next with full throttle. That’s how life should be — no slow walks, just running headfirst into the unknown.”
In addition to the single, fans can dive deeper into this electrifying new sound through the official music video, also released today. Lee teases, “It’s futuristic, electronic, and full of surprises—just like the song.”
This release sets the stage for Symphony of Sweden’s exciting plans for 2025. “We’re going bigger, faster, and stronger,” says Lee. “From more live shows to new music, we’re inviting fans to join us on this thrilling ride.”
To their loyal fanbase, Lee expresses gratitude: “Thank you for all the love and support you’ve given us. We hope you’ll join us in this next chapter—it’s going to be bigger and better than ever!”
“We Go Off Tonight” is available now on all major streaming platforms, alongside its official music video on YouTube. Brace yourselves for an explosive anthem that’s guaranteed to light up your playlists — and your celebrations.
Welcome to the musical world of Symphony Of Sweden!
Coming from the North of Sweden with winter and ice bears all over the place, the music is the other way around. Grand and epic with huge arrangements, the missing link between pop and metal – this is Symphony of Sweden! Add the powerful voice of Linus “Lee” Wester and the creative talent of Pontus “Evan” Hagberg you will have a concept that brings you on a journey from here to eternity.
Symphony Of Sweden is: Pontus „Evan” Hagberg Linus „Lee” Wester
Evan and Lee lived in the same small town up north in Sweden. Lee had his own little service point, betting shop, tobacco store nearby which also happened to be Evan’s local service point where he went to get his parcels. After saying hello to each other for a couple of years, there was one day Evan had a parcel to get – which obviously was music-related. They fell into conversation with each other, a few days later Evan invited Lee to his studio. Evan: „he had found one of my instrumental tracks on Youtube and sang it with a new melody on top and lyrics for me in the studio, right there when he just arrived! I was blown away, and a week later we had our first ever track produced and completed. As soon he sang his first two words in the studio I wanted to work with him!”
The band released their first album, Inner Demons in January 2021, and their second album, Saints Of Yesterday came out on the 3rd of February, 2022. The band’s latest material, Haunted was released on the 7th of February, 2024.

Meet KING SATAN: Industrial metal heretics born from the heart of Finland’s underground music scene in late 2015. Presenting a genre-fluid extreme metal circus that melds electro-industrial, symphonic black metal and death metal elements together with raw energy of rock’roll on a stage existing somewhere between shameless shock rock and chaotic avantgarde theatre.
Founded in late 2015, this genre-fluid group is the brainchild of enigmatic artist Mr. King Aleister Satan (Henget, Saturnian Mist), which has evolved from its electro-aggrotech origins into a full-throttle industrial metal band over the years. The act’s vision of extreme metal brings forth an anarchistic blend of carnivalesque artistry, absurdist dark comedy, occult intrigue, and in-depth philosophical ponderings, served in an intoxicating blend of rocking dance beats, thought-provoking lyrics, mesmerizing melodies, and addictive hooks the band themselves have titled as ‘death metal disco’— a fusion fit for both dance floors and mosh pits. With all these elements, the band defies conventions and embraces controversy the way which should not really make any sense on paper – and yet, it has consistently helped to create always more buzz for the band wherever they go.
But KING SATAN is more than just a mere musical entity; Known for their infectious charisma and captivating performances, it’s a live experience that electrifies stages and captivates audiences. With a reputation solidified by three full-length albums and viral chart-climbing singles in Finland and Germany, they’ve graced renowned festivals like Tuska Festival, Nummirock Metal Festival and Dark Malta Festival. The group has also toured in Europe in several countries, headlining their own shows and supporting revered acts like Gothminister, Deathstars, Battle Beast, Hocico, Nachtmahr, and Turmion Kätilöt on the way.
The band’s 4th full-length album ”The Devil’s Evangelion” is set to be released world wide on November 8, 2024 via NOBLE DEMON RECORDS which will be previewed again with single releases and music videos following the motto of their ever-growing congregation: Chaos is the Law!

Progressive rock/metal phenomenon ERELEY has unleashed the music video for their gripping track ‘Type 0 Steel’, off their acclaimed album Garden, out now via Wormholedeath.
The video unfolds like a dark, Lovecraftian short film, packed with stirring visuals and lyrics that tap into themes of loss, numbness, and that all-too-familiar battle with our inner shadows.
In Type 0 Steel, Ereley takes viewers on a soul-stirring journey of inner conflict—a powerful reflection on the human struggle between yearning for beauty and the reality of one’s darker self. Vividly depicted through striking visuals, the video captures the clash of a “colorful” dream against a shadowed existence.
ERELEY’s music style, termed “heavy joy music,” blends elements of doom, death, thrash, and prog metal, creating a dynamic, progressive sound.
Ereley is: Lukáš “LR” Réda – vocals, guitars (and everything behind, between and after) Jiří “York” Réda – guitars Jan “Jofa” Kapr – bass William “Willi” Izmalkov – Drums
