DRUNKEN SWALLOWS release “Hunderte Dämonen”, the second single of the upcoming studio album “Im Namen Des Wahnsinns” which will be released on 19 April on Metalville Records.

The band about the song: “There was a situation in which hundreds of demons stood in front of us. One of the most difficult situations in the band’s history. We stood together, we fell together and ultimately got up again together.”

Drunken Swallows are back on the road with their sixth output “Im Namen des Wahnsinns”, which marks the band’s 15th anniversary.

The four punk rockers present themselves with their now typical sound. Catchy guitar riffs, sing-along songs and lyrically a cross-section of life with all its facets.

The development of the Swallows especially after the change of bass player, is enormous. The band themselves announced their aim to return a little to their bloody beginnings. And they have succeeded very well. The mix of modern melodies and the dirt of the garage suits the four northern lights perfectly and is absolutely authentic. Many choruses that burn themselves into the listener’s head on the first listen, crisp riffs and everyone can find themselves thematically on this album. But there are also gentle, serious, calm melodies in the form of ballads on the new album. Swallow’s atypical instruments have been used here, and this is more than worth listening to.

Goosebumps, a thirst for beer, fun and the necessary seriousness in times when it was certainly not always easy to write a punk rock album. The Schwalben did it 100% like this. As they once said themselves: weird times need weird birds. True, when you hear how life plays out in the name of madness.

A punk rock album that really must have its place on every shelf! And because Drunken Swallows are definitely a live band, the upcoming concerts will be more than worth a visit.

International melodic death metal project ACT OF DENIAL has dropped the lyric video for their latest single ‘Unbury The Hatchet’, which bring you back to 90 and early 2000 with some old school Gothenburg vibe. The single has a new guest on drums, Eugene Ryabchenko (best known as drummer of FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE).

Few words from AOD co-founder Luger:
“We are extremely happy that we have a new song out after almost 3 years together with a new lyric video. Once again video is done by our buddy Wanderley Perna (https://www.facebook.com/wanderleyperna, https://www.facebook.com/wdesignerbr) who did also our 1st lyric video for ‘Your Dark Desires’ from debut album and he did amazing job as always. Thx bro!!
We are also satisfied that we are recording again since it is very difficult for us at this point. People we are working with, are very busy already with their own bands and it is hard to find any time for some side projects.
1st album was made during Covid time when everyone was stuck at home, so they had time, now is completely different situation but somehow we’re still managing.
Also thanks every AOD fans and supporters for making this happen.
What everyone is wondering and asking us lately, will there be a new album from AOD soon? Unfortunately I can’t confirm anything about that topic, as already said, some of the guys already started their tours or they will start it soon, but I can give a hint about a new song that is in the works with some cool guests, and not only 1 but a few, but we will leave that aside for now.
We will be updating all on our socials when time comes.
Stay tuned,healthy and beautiful.
As always Rock on!!”

ENEMY OF FATE’s 6-Track EP “Settle the Score” Out Now

Discover the sheer brilliance of ENEMY OF FATE‘s 6-track EP, “Settle the Score,” as it captivates with its haunting darkness, unapologetic nature, and relentless energy.

Through Tiffany’s mesmerizing storytelling, you will embark on an epic journey that delves into her life’s experiences like never before.

“As our EP’s story reaches its final chapter, the process of crafting the narratives for each track has been a deeply moving experience for me that allowed for my own emotional catharsis and growth (something I didn’t even realize I needed). My hope for our listeners is that they too embark on a similar voyage through our music, delving into the depths of pain, healing, and ultimately embracing the transformative power of their own trials and triumphs. To say the things that have needed to be said but never having the courage to, until now, is to Settle the Score. This EP has been my catch and release and I will cherish it for always, and we hope you do too.” -Tiffany Fabiani

About Enemy of Fate

Based in Sacramento, CA, Enemy of Fate is led by singer and songwriter Tiffany Fabiani. Her vocals have astounded audiences for years in the making, receiving comparisons to artists like Adele, Lady Gaga, Annie Lennox, and Evanescence. Writing all of her own original music, her distinct voice and artistry sets her apart from those in the genre and gives her a unique edge in alternative new metal.

After auditioning for NBC’s “The Voice” back in 2019 and 2021 and not advancing, Fabiani almost gave up on her dream of making music, but strong encouragement from her husband Mickey helped her continue her career. Thankfully, soon after, she returned to the studio and recorded her successful track “Dear Dad” – an intimate and personal song about her relationship with her real father. The success of this track, and Mickey’s continued support, was the push Tiffany needed to continue her passion, and since then has released more music that speaks to intimate stories that are often difficult to share. Tiffany’s music helps women around the world struggling with similar issues find their voice, and she hopes to bring action and positive change with each and every release.

UNDERTAKERS Share New Single ‘Pet Sematary’ (Ramones Cover)

Iconic Italian death-grinders UNDERTAKERS premiere their new single “Pet Sematary” (Ramones cover) at THIS LOCATION!

The band commented:

“The Ramones have consistently embodied the spirit that so fascinates Undertakers: a sharp punk attitude combined with an imagery steeped in darkness and sickness. ‘Pet Sematary’ represents the perfect example of what makes them unique, being a sort of experiment in creating a punk rock ballad that manages to unanimously capture the attention of listeners, becoming an icon in the collective music landscape. Furthermore, the participation of Karim Qqru, drummer of The Zen Circus, fills us with pride, further enriching the depth and variety of our musical experience”.

“Pet Sematary” is UNDERTAKERS‘ first release since “Dictatorial Democracy”, issued in 2020 via Time To Kill Records.
“Dictatorial Democracy” features a few brand new songs, old classics from the band’s back catalogue and a couple of acclaimed cover songs: “Fascist Pig”, originally by Suicidal Tendencies, and “Ripetutamente” by Neapolitan band 99 Posse.

The current UNDERTAKERS line-up features longtime members Enrico Giannone (vocals) and Stefano Casanica (guitar), along with Marco Mastrobuono (bass) and Demian Campora (drums) for live performances.

UNDERTAKERS were formed way back in 1991 and throughout their career they have had the opportunity to share the stage with Napalm Death, Suffocation, Malevolent Creation, Vader, Cannibal Corpse and Vital Remains, among many others. When for most Italian groups playing abroad was pretty much a dream, UNDERTAKERS completed three European tours and played festivals such as Brutal Assault and Dynamo Open Air in the first part of their career.

UNDERTAKERS started as a classic death metal band, but over the years their sound has become a frenetic and brutal mix of grind, death metal and hardcore.

Line-up:

Enrico Giannone – Insults
Stefano Casanica – Guitar

Live:

Marco Mastrobuono – Bass
Demian Campora – Drums

AMARANTHE Release New Album “The Catalyst”, Reveal Music Video for Title Track

Posted by tarjavirmakari on February 25, 2024

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

Sweden’s masters of thunderous, melodic futurism, AMARANTHE, have released their highly anticipated album The Catalyst via Nuclear Blast Records. Along with the album release, a music video has dropped for the title track. Watch it below.

The band states: “The proverbial eagle has landed! After a few years of hard toil, sweat and at least a small amount of blood, we are enormously proud and downright electrified to know that our newborn and latest album – The Catalyst is available worldwide! This has truly been a journey of pure passion and creative experimentation, along with a dose of soul-searching for good measure. We hope that you will find it to your taste, and if you do – don’t forget to stop by The Catalyst World Tour when it hits a town near YOU!”

The Catalyst is the most conceptually coherent piece of work in AMARANTHE’s storied history. Dedicated to notions of transformation and revelation, it delves deeper than any previous album, as Olof Mörck explains.

“We’ve done these things before, but we’ve never been as theatrical as we have this time,” Mörck grins. “In fact, we all questioned whether we went too far this time, but I also figured that this band was always this way. Literally the first seconds of our first video was a big explosion! But yes, The Catalyst is more theatrical than ever. We’ve never really been symphonic or orchestral before, but this time we just thought why not? Because we can! The key to this album is that we let go of the boundaries and decided to do something even more adventurous.”

The Catalyst represents the culmination of 15 years of hard work and the breathless pursuit of a wholly original musical vision. Change is inevitable. Victory is assured.
