REVENGIN Sign with Wormholedeath And Drop ‘Circle of Mistakes’ Single + Video

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

Brace yourselves, metalheads! Hailing from Brazil, female-fronted symphonic metal sensation REVENGIN is thrilled to announce their signing with Wormholedeath Records for the release of their highly anticipated new album, ‘Dark Dogma Embrace’, set to drop in early 2025. More details on this groundbreaking release will be revealed soon.

Formed in 2008 by a collective of seasoned musicians hailing from Rio de Janeiro, Revengin is here to melt your face with their brand of symphonic brutality.

To celebrate this monumental signing, the band unleashes their first single, “Circle of Mistakes,” a sonic masterpiece that serves as a powerful introduction to the forthcoming album.

“Circle of Mistakes” explores the duality we all carry within ourselves, the denial of our flaws that keeps us trapped in a self-perpetuating cycle of negativity.

“Circle of Mistakes” is available now on all major digital platforms. Don’t miss this chance to experience a genre-bending masterpiece!

A Journey of Liberation

“Circle of Mistakes” is an anthem for self-awareness. Heavy, pummeling verses lay the foundation for a soaring, powerful chorus that lays bare the complexities of human nature. The song is a call to confront our weaknesses, for it’s only through acceptance that we can truly break free. The track’s closing section beautifully reflects this liberation, a soul unburdened from the shackles that held it back, ready to embrace its full potential.

“Circle of Mistakes” was meticulously crafted through a collaborative effort between Revengin, the talented Caio Mendonça, and Rômulo Pirozzi. The track was recorded at the legendary Tellus Studio (home to recordings by Onslaught, Ektomorf, and Borknagar), with mixing and mastering handled by the masterful Caio Mendonça.

Visually Stunning Accompaniment

The song’s emotional depth is further amplified by the stunning music video for “Circle of Mistakes.” Scripted by Bruna Rocha and brought to life by director Felipe Borges, the video utilizes a striking color scheme of cyan and amber to symbolize human duality. Shadows and smoke weave a tapestry of emotional intensity, perfectly complementing the song’s lyrical themes. The band’s passionate performance further elevates the viewing experience.

Seasoned Warriors of the Metal Realm

Revengin has already established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the global heavy metal scene. They’ve toured extensively across Europe and South America, leaving audiences in awe in Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Netherlands, Germany, and Argentina. Their impressive festival appearances include the legendary Rock in Rio, where they shared the stage with titans like Iron Maiden, Dream Theater, and Gojira.

The current lineup of Revengin features the formidable Bruna Rocha (vocals), the gutturally gifted Thiago Contrera (guitar), the shredding Themys Barros (guitar), the groove master Diego Pirozzi (bass), and the powerhouse Nacife jr (drums).

LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Unleash New Single + Music Video ‘The Ballad of Jon Milwaukee’

Posted by metalshockfinland on July 16, 2024
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: LORDS OF THE TRIDENT. Leave a comment

Following the announcement of their new EP, ‘V.G.E.P’. out on October 1st, LORDS OF THE TRIDENT returns with the second single from the release, “The Ballad of Jon Milwaukee.” The new track is accompanied by a music video which is available below. 

Frontman Fang VonWrathenstein explains:
“This EP is all about our favorite video games, and one of my favorites is a motorcycle racing game called ‘Road Rash’. We played it on our weekly Twitch gaming stream for many weeks, and when it came time to choose a character, we of course selected the character with the most Wisconsin street cred: Jon Milwaukee! As we played the game, the chat made up a bunch of lore about our bike-racing character, much of which made it into the lyrics of the game. When we were shooting the video, I knew I wanted to have real-life bikers involved, so I asked a friend to help me make introductions with a local gang. A bunch of cases of beer and a couple of bottles of Costco bourbon later, we had a date set up for the shoot. What I didn’t know was that the gang had scheduled a large rally of all of the surrounding gangs to coincide with our filming! We had over 200 bikers at this rally (although unfortunately, a large chunk of them didn’t want to appear on camera). We spent the day riding, drinking, and rocking out, and I think we became honorary members of the gang. Well, at least our biker personas did!”

The EP made its “sudden drop” as an exclusive release for LORDS OF THE TRIDENT’s Patreon supporters. 

Anyone who pledges $5 or more to the LORDS OF THE TRIDENT Patreon gets immediate access to download the full EP and the band’s last four albums, 25+ live albums, 10+ singles, and more!

Tracklist V.G.E.P.:

To Kill a God
Master of Speed
Jet Set City

The Ballad of Jon Milwaukee

VOMIT FORTH to Release New Album “Terrified Of God”, on October 11th

📸: @lichseeker

Northeast based agents of terror Vomit Forth are driven to create the most visceral death metal the world has ever experienced. The band has just announced their new album, Terrified Of God, set for release October 11th. To celebrate, the band have dropped a new single, Rotting Wool.

Stream the new single here: https://VomitForth.lnk.to/TerrifiedOfGodNe

In the deep winter of early 2024, the band headed into a cabin in the woods with Randy Lebouf (The Acacia Strain, Jesus Piece), who recorded, mixed, mastered and produced the album. Vomit Forth had an unabashed goal to make “the most unsettling, brutal and scary death metal record of all time” and across the album’s twelve tracks, they surpass it.

On the album’s themes, vocalist Kane shares:
“The biggest thing I want to get across with this record and that humanity doesn’t know everything.  We are flawed, and in a lot of ways disgusting.  We act like we aren’t afraid of what happens after we die.  I know most people like to think nothing happens and we just conduct heat.  That there’s no consequence other than how we effect other people during our time here, but I know there’s a hint of fear in the back of everyone’s mind.  Everyone feels it.  Not a single person on this earth lives without being ‘Terrified of God’ at one point or another in their life.”

Pre-order Terrified Of God now!

BLOOD INCANTATION Announce New Album “Absolute Elsewhere”, Out October 4th

Posted by metalshockfinland on July 16, 2024
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: BLOOD INCANTATION. Leave a comment

The new Blood Incantation album, Absolute Elsewhere , is unlike anything you’ve ever heard before. Yes, that’s an audacious, possibly hyperbolic claim, but few can claim a sonic watershed as readily as this Denver, Colorado quartet. Hovering at nearly 45 minutes, their longest full length recording yet, the album’s two sprawling movements – The Stargate and The Message – are as confounding as they are engaging, exponentially expanding upon the formulas laid down by their scene-shattering debut Starspawn (2016) and landmark followup Hidden History of the Human Race (2019).

Stream the latest single here: https://BloodIncantation.lnk.to/LuminescentBridgeNe

As Blood Incantation’s Paul Riedl tells,  “‘Absolute Elsewhere’ is our most potent audial extract/musical trip yet; like the soundtrack to a Herzog-style Sci-Fi epic about the history of/battle for human consciousness itself, via a 70s Prog album played by a 90s Death Metal band from the future.” 

For inspiration, the group looked to the mid-70’s progressive rock collective, Absolute Elsewhere (best known as a celestial stopover for King Crimson drummer, Bill Bruford) as the album’s namesake. For the uninitiated, Absolute Elsewhere’s obscure 1976 album, In Search of Ancient Gods , was constructed as a musical accompaniment to the works of Chariots of the Gods author, Erich Von Daniken, and his theories of non-terrestrial humanoid prompts towards mankind’s evolution. The subject matter of which should serve as no surprise to anyone familiar with Blood Incantation’s cosmically philosophical leanings.

But make no mistake, the four musicians working under the Blood Incantation banner for the past decade – guitarist and vocalist Paul Riedl, drummer Isaac Faulk, guitarist Morris Kolontyrsky and bassist Jeff Barrett – have successfully left the microgravity of genre behind and are re-writing the Rosetta Stone of extreme music with a new language entirely. Demonstrations like their 2022 all-synth show or 2024’s Roadburn Festival headlining appearance where they played back-to-back death metal and ambient made it clear: Blood Incantation have honed their abilities to go boldly where few bands have gone before, and reveal no signs of slowing down.
