PATRIARCHS IN BLACK Release New Single + Video ‘Welcome To Hell Again’

PATRIARCHS IN BLACK release “Welcome To Hell Again”, the second pre-single from the upcoming studio album “Visioning” (Metalville Records – release date July 19th).

Dan Lorenzo says: “As soon as I wrote the music to “Welcome To Hell Again” I knew I wanted to have Kelly Abe and DMC collaborate on the lyrics and vocals. I had just written a song with DMC for his next solo album he’s calling TeRIFFic.”

DMC about his lyrics for “Welcome To Hell Again”:  “I’m basically saying it’s a choice to live in hell! We sometimes create our own hell. Regardless of what’s going on, we can speak life or death and positivity or negativity. The spirit I spit is how I live my life. How can carry myself. I’m basically telling the devil and evil to bring their best! I can handle whatever they bring at me! I love working with Patriarchs In Black because they’re great musicians and I love the content of their songs. A lot of emotional stuff I can relate to.”

Former Type O Negative/ Danzig drummer Johnny Kelly and guitarist riff writer Dan Lorenzo (Hades / Non-Fiction) formed Patriarchs In Black at the end of 2021. The project included well known guests on vocals and bass including Karl Agell ( COC Blind/Lie Heavy) , Jimmy Gnecco, Dewey Bragg ( Kill Devil Hill/Bill Ward) among others. Their debut single “Demon of Regret” came out January 2022 and the full album “Reach For The Scars” was released July 1st 2022. Their 2nd album “My Veneration” was October 6th 2023 with multiple guest vocalists and bassists.

For the forthcoming 3rd studio album “Visioning” Dan Lorenzo has already written twelve new songs. Beside drummer Johnny Kelly it features again a bunch of great singers and bass players, like Dave Neabore (Dog Eat Dog), Karl Agell (Corrosion Of Confirmity), Eric Morgan (A Pale Horse Named Death), Mark Sunshine (Riotgod), Jason McMaster (Watchtower), Kyle Thomas (Exhorder) and many more.

The songs on “Visioning” combine elements of classic doom metal with modern sounds as well as excursions into hardcore/crossover.

The album was mixed and mastered at JROD Productions by Jon Cioicari.

“It’s SO fun and not putting too much pressure on singers to come up with one or two amazing lyrics and melodies a year. I write a LOT of riffs/music. Our third album came together very easily. FUN FUN FUN” says Dan.

Bleed From Within racked up some impressive tour dates last year, including the Lamb Of God Headbangers Boat cruise, following on from a colossal summer run which took in both headline shows, performances with Heaven Shall Burn and festival appearances at the likes of Brutal Assault (Czech Republic), Summer Breeze (Germany) and Alcatraz (Belgium), finishing up with a 13-date tour supporting Trivium across the UK. This was all on top of a hugely successful debut American tour earlier in the year year with August Burns Red and The Devil Wears Prada. 

In November of last year Bleed From Within released the ShrineDeluxe Edition. Their stunning latest studio album Shrine wasreleased in summer 2022, marking the band’s most groundbreaking work to-date and staking out Bleed From Within‘s bold intent. The Scottish 5-piece claiming their position as the most exciting prospect in modern metal.

Steven Jones from the band stated,
”Upon releasing ‘Shrine’ in June 2022, it’s safe to say that none of us expected what the following months would bring. It’s been a hell of a year, with our most rigorous touring schedule yet putting us in places we’ve dreamed of since we started the band. This era of Bleed From Within is something we have worked so hard toward, and in this moment we are extremely grateful to all those who have made it possible. To all of our fans who fill the rooms and sing the words, to the team behind the scenes who keep the cogs moving on tour, in the studio and everywhere between, and to the creative minds that help us bring our music to life – thank you. 17 months since its original release, we are so proud to now present this limited and deluxe edition of ‘Shrine’, featuring all of the songs that were recorded during the sessions. Here’s to the months and years ahead!”

Bleed From Within have been to hell and back, but they are no strangers to enduring hardship. When a global pandemic threatened to shut down their plans, the Glaswegians collectively raised five middle fingers and pressed on. It’s no surprise that this unstoppable riff machine continues to crush forward at such a frantic pace – there’s no putting the breaks on the heaviest band to ever emerge from Scotland.

The band’s reputation as one of the most formidable forces in modern metal has earned them tour slots with Megadeth, Lamb Of God, Testament and Heaven Shall Burn, to name just a few. The last few years has seen them dominate the UK live scene and take Europe and America by storm.

Shrine has taken the most graft to put together of any record in their catalogue, challenging their self-perception on both personal and technical levels – the culmination of two years hard work that embodies their artistic might. Armed with the learnings of evolving their sound over the last decade without ever losing sight of their DIY roots, this is Bleed From Within at their very best. There’s no denying the band’s inevitable next steps are world domination, with Shrine a turning point moment.

Bleed From Within are:
Scott Kennedy – Vocals
Craig Gowans – Lead Guitar
Steven Jones – Rhythm Guitar & Vocals
David Provan – Bass
Ali Richardson – Drums 

LOVE IS NOISE Sign with Century Media, Reveal Official Video for New Single ‘Soft Glow’

Century Media Records is excited to announce the signing of the U.K.’s Love Is Noise. Soft Glow is a first taste of Love Is Noise reaching for a plane beyond loud and quiet, the sound of a band indulging in its harshest and most gentle impulses.

Stream the new single here: https://LoveIsNoise.lnk.to/SoftGlow-SingleNe

Love Is Noise began its journey in 2021 as a collaboration between Humphrey and guitarist Tom Mellon balancing the ethereal and intense. While sonic signposts include modern day shoegaze as well as the likes of Glassjaw and Deftones, the band’s 2022 EP, Euphoria, Where Were You? (released on Fever 333 frontman Jason Aalon Butler’s 333 Wreckords) pointed towards a soul-crushing sonic heartache all their own. A string of singles led to the band inking with Century Media and beginning on their debut album.

Love Is Noise comment on signing with Century Media Records:  “We’re incredibly excited to be a part of the Century Media Family, a label full of rich musical history. We’re proud to join a roster of so many amazing artists. This will be the start of something incredibly special.

The band adds to the new single: “Soft Glow glides you through the appreciation we have for the world we live in and the people who make our lives greater everyday. Whether it’s a loved one, a partner, a friend or a companion, this song was created for you.”

HERIOT Announce Long-Awaited Debut Album “Devoured by the Mouth of Hell”, Reveal New Single + Video ‘Foul Void’

UK’s most exciting new heavy band, HERIOT, are proud to announce their long-awaited debut album. Devoured by the Mouth of Hell will be released 27th September.

Accompanying the album news, HERIOT today have released their Hadean new single, Foul Void , recorded with Josh Middleton (Sylosis, Architects) and GRAMMY Award-winning Will Putney (END, Fit For An Autopsy, Better Lovers).

Stream the new single here: https://heriot.lnk.to/DevouredByTheMouthOfHell-AlbumNe

The band comment: “‘Foul Void’ was one of the last tracks written for our debut album, Devoured by the Mouth of Hell. Sonically influenced by ’90s and early 00’s metalcore, the song delves into the inner struggle of an individual facing uncertainties about their faith.”

HERIOT’s debut album will continue their ascendancy as the pre-eminent new force in the UK heavy scene. The new single Foul Void follows Siege Lord and late 2023’s Soul Chasm , the first two glimpses of new material following their signing with Century Media and support shows with Architects in summer of 2023.

HERIOT have deservedly been grabbing attention with all four pairs of hands, weaponising metallic sludge and hardcore, unholy levels of distortion, speed and gut-punching talent. Elements of Nails, Knocked Loose, Code Orange, and Vein.fm combine and collide to exhilarating effect, creating a sound that is truly groundbreaking, fully worthy of the notice the band are achieving.

Pre-order Devoured by the Mouth of Hell now!

SANGUISUGABOGG Share Video for New Single ‘Permanently F*cked’

Ohio’s notorious, boundary-pushing, and bloodsucking death metal outfit Sanguisugabogg — Cody Davidson, drums; Drew Arnold, guitars/bass; Devin Swank, vocals; and Ced Davis, guitars/bass — have shared the video for the brand new and gloriously irreverent single, Permanently F*cked . The video finds the band in performance mode… with some bloody imagery woven throughout.

Stream the new single here: https://Sanguisugabogg.lnk.to/PermanentlyFcked-SingleNe

“The meaning of the song is a drastically blown out of proportion way of showing how much you love someone,” the band states. “We got inspiration of the song from the 2018 horror film Pet where Dominic Monaghan’s character volunteers himself as a vice for Ksenia Solo’s character so she can torture and humiliate them and they’re bound to their cage so she doesn’t free the urge to murder someone instinctively and doesn’t get arrested or imprisoned for killing people.”

This is the first taste of new music since last year’s 2023’s Homicidal Ecstasy. That album followed 2021’s Tortured Whole. The band continues to slice up uncompromising, in-your-face, and not-for-the-weak death metal that siphons inspiration from early to mid- ’90s and early ’00s death metal and brutal death metal/grindcore presented in their own style with a unique twist that pleases every style of metal maniac.
