Time To Kill Records is proud to announce that “Sorrow Will Drown Us All”, the third full-length album from Michigan-based death metal crew RECORRUPTOR, will be released on July 18th, 2025.

Marking a major milestone in the band’s evolution, this new chapter is a towering display of modern death metal – razor-sharp, relentlessly aggressive and deeply focused in its execution.

Crafted with unwavering dedication, “Sorrow Will Drown Us All” channels RECORRUPTOR’s signature blend of technical precision and crushing brutality into a tightly wound storm of riffs and bleak atmospheres. Every track is built for maximum impact: no filler, no compromise. The result is an album that not only reinforces the band’s place in the contemporary death metal scene, but also expands their sonic reach with a darker, more mature intensity. Prepare for one of the most uncompromising releases of the year.

The first single “An Unnatural Lust” is available now, streaming at https://ffm.to/recorruptor-an-unnatural-lust

The band commented:

“‘An Unnatural Lust’ is a bloody tale of a diseased mind that finds himself rather disgusting… a sentiment some may understand, but not to this degree. Apotemnophilia is a psychological disease that instills the insatiable desire to amputate one’s body parts, and ‘An Unnatural Lust’ details this grim case quite graphically”.

Tracklist:

1. Bathe in the Ashes of Heaven
2. Sorrow Will Drown Us All
3. Bearing the Befouled Spawn
4. Within the Vault
5. Urn of Verglas
6. Envenoming
7. An Unnatural Lust
8. Devoured by Centipedes
9. Insidious Rot
10. Putrid Aberration of Malevolent Divinity
11. Death at the Hands of His Image
12. Scourge of Prometheus (Ft. Enrico H. Di Lorenzo of Hideous Divinity)

Preorders:

Born from a relentless need for speed and a commitment to preserving pure, unfiltered riff-driven death metal, RECORRUPTOR has carved out a name for themselves through explosive live performances and unflinching intensity. Since their formation in 2016, the Michigan-based band has released two full-length albums — “Bloodmoon” (2017) and “The Funeral Corridor” (2020) — both of which paved the way for extensive regional touring and support slots alongside genre titans such as Cannibal Corpse, The Black Dahlia Murder, Suffocation, Morbid Angel, and Cattle Decapitation.
Refining their sound with each release, RECORRUPTOR entered the studio in 2023 to record what stands as their most focused and ferocious effort to date: “Sorrow Will Drown Us All”. A culmination of years spent sharpening their craft, the new album captures the band at their most precise, punishing, and unapologetically extreme.

For fans of: Aborted, Cattle Decapitation, Suffocation, Carnifex

Line-up:

Clint A. Franklin – Vocals
Seth Earl – Guitar
Isaac Marier – Guitar
Alex Schmidt – Bass
Josh Moore – Drums

Celestial Wizard will release the new album “Regenesis” on July 11 through Scarlet Records.

Celestial Wizard burst forth from the Colorado heavy metal scene in 2018 with all guns blazing, and is now an uncompromising sonic force looking to make its mark in the age of modern power metal with a melodic dual lead sound mixed with a death metal vocal styling.

Their third studio-album, “Regenesis” is a heavy, epic, vibrant offering that digs deep with its lyrical approach too. While sonically akin to the classic Swedish melo-death plot, the songs still stay true to the power metal-esque sound that truly defines the band.

The guys from Denver looked inward for their conceptual themes, wanting every track to feel as close-to-the-heart and culturally relevant as possible: from outlaws of the Wild West to cosmic rebirth, this effort covers an incredible amount of ground.

Each episode gives the listener a spirited and emotional experience: featuring a wider dynamic range of material than ever before, “Regenesis” has something for everyone!

Produced by Celestial Wizard and Nick Nodurft at Rusty Sun Audio, and gorgeously illustrated by the English master Dan Goldsworthy, “Regenesis” will be released in the following formats:

jewel case CD
vinyl LP: 300 marbled orange
digital

“Regenesis” tracklist:
1 Muerte
2 Pale Horse
3 Fangbearer
4 She Is The Blade
5 Shores Of Eternity
6 Into The Abyss
7 Ride With Fire
8 Wicked Master
9 Emerald Eyes
10 Regenesis

Total running time – 45:56

FFO: (early) In Flames, Soilwork, Dark Tranquility, Galaktikon, Killswitch Engage, Carcass (“Heartwork”-era)

Celestial Wizard:
Nick Daggers – vocals, guitar
Amethyst Noir – vocals
William Perkins – guitar
Soren Bray – bass

Sheffield-based singer-songwriter Harri Larkin is proud to announce the release of their brand new EP ‘Slowburn’, out now via Golden Robot Records.

Stream ‘Slowburn‘ here: https://orcd.co/harri-larkin-slowburn

Blending elements of indie, funk, jazz, and grunge, Slowburn is a genre-defying collection that captures the emotional intensity and evolving artistry of Harri Larkin. Known for her heartfelt lyricism, soaring vocal melodies, and an undeniably infectious sound, Harri delivers an EP that is both introspective and anthemic – burning slowly but leaving a lasting mark.

The new EP follows the powerful single ‘Too Close to the Sun‘, a song written in tribute to a close friend lost to an accidental overdose. The single set the emotional tone for ‘Slowburn‘, an honest and cathartic body of work that explores grief, healing, and the quiet power of vulnerability.

Harri Larkin first made waves with debut album ‘Beach City’ that caught the attention of BBC Introducing, who broadcast it in full. In 2023, Harri was named the winner of the national Tramlines “Apply to Play” competition, landing performances at major UK festivals and earning national radio play along the way.

Harri continues to push creative boundaries with ‘Slowburn’ – a record that embraces nuance, celebrates growth, and invites listeners into a deeply personal world.

Harri Tape – Guitar, vocals
Abi Middleton – Backing vocals
Tom Wylie – Guitar
Oscar South – Bass
Danton Laromani – Drums

September 26, 2025 will see Swedish metal act Curse Of Cain release their much-awaited, sophomore studio album, entitled “Achtung!”, via ROAR (Grave Digger, Mystic Circle, Holy Moses, Crematory a.o.). Coming on CD, Vinyl and Digital formats, the album pre-sale is available at this location: https://Curseofcain.rpm.link/achtungalbPR

Emerging from the enigmatic depths of their unique dimension, Curse Of Cain redefines what it means to be a band. Shrouded in mystery and driven by an unrelenting force they call Movie Metal, Curse of Cain is more than music, it’s an immersive saga. Their narrative weaves together struggles, victories, and the haunting beauty of a dystopian universe, brought to life by a cast of compelling characters.

With their forthcoming sonic masterpiece, “Achtung!”, Curse Of Cain elevate their storytelling to a new level of intensity. Each track is a chapter, plunging listeners deep into the trials, transformations, and unity of the band’s personas. This album isn’t just a collection of songs; it’s a declaration of resilience and individuality. Themes of defiance, survival, and self-discovery resonate through every riff, breakdown, and melody.

But give ear, as today, the extraordinary metal collective is presenting a video clip for their album title track “Achtung!”. Stream the song now on https://curseofcain.rpm.link/achtungsnglPR

Curse Of Cain doesn’t just perform music; they transport audiences to another world. Their live shows blur the line between concert and theater, with elaborate costumes, immersive lighting, and gripping storytelling. Fans become part of the narrative, stepping into the Curse Of Cain dimension as the band’s characters invite them to join the journey. It’s not just a show, it’s a portal into a rich, otherworldly experience.

The band’s roots lie in a dystopian, futuristic world scarred by the Red War of 2076. Here, Cain, a shadowy figure, navigates a shattered society teetering on collapse. His story is told through The Band, a group of misfit antiheroes who serve as both musicians and storytellers. By day, they’re a traveling cover band; by night, they’re operatives fighting against parasitic beings known as the “wrecks,” which infest and manipulate human hosts.

Curse Of Cain’s debut album delves into Cain’s past, revealing the events that shaped him and his enduring fight for survival. With “Achtung!”, the narrative unfolds further, showcasing a turning point in their universe, a battle against chaos, a rise against the darkness.

“We are the ones who walk the line between light and shadow, chaos and order,” Curse Of Cain declares. “Through “Achtung!”, we offer a glimpse into our battles and triumphs. This album is not just our story, it’s yours. Together, we defy the darkness.”

Curse Of Cain’s journey is far from over. With their forthcoming studio album as the next chapter in their epic tale, they invite you to step into their world, feel the power of their music, and embrace the story of struggle and unity.

PIPER Releases Second Single ‘Raindrops’ from Upcoming Album

Posted by tarjavirmakari on May 22, 2025

Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: PIPER. Leave a comment

Piper, aka Päivi Sihvonen, the melodic atmospheric rock artist from Finland, has released the second single Raindrops from the second full-length studio album to be released later this year. She also releases Live album later this year.

Listen to the single on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal jne.): https://push.fm/fl/piper-raindrops

Tracklist/ISRC-codes:

Raindrops
ISRC: FI3FC2585202
A Bridge Across Time (LIVE)
ISRC: FI3FC2585222

Composition: Päivi Sihvonen & Saku Anttila
Lyrics. Päivi Sihvonen
Arrangement. Päivi Sihvonen & Saku Anttila

In Raindrops, the second single from the upcoming album A Bridge Across Time, the listener is drawn into the whirlpools of deep emotions. The raindrops of sound allow tears to flow for those whose eyes witness the dark veil swaying before them, a curtain of sorrow. Behind this gauzy curtain, the album’s deepest themes emerge: surrender, loss, and death.

Raindrops is crafted as a piano ballad and is the first recorded song to feature background vocals. Piper’s trademark layered style is evident in the execution – a collaboration once again between the familiar duo, Päivi Sihvonen and Saku Anttila. Päivi composes and writes the lyrics, while Saku arranges, plays all the other instruments, and sings the background vocals.

Nature’s influence can also be heard in Raindrops. The music paints a fog-covered, rugged landscape, where delicate pine branches are draped with tangled lichen. The frozen grasses, their dew drops each ringing their own little note, sway with the chilly rhythms of rock. Nature’s delicate dance echoes in the music, while the forest, with its mossy carpets, whispers lyrics from the past.
