It’s time for the last single from DEAD TALKS before the new album “Veneration Of The Dead” is finally released on August 18th! Get ready for another waltzing death metal monster called “508”!
Watch / Listen here:
Tattarisuo Finland in the 1930s: A man stole corpses from the cemetery to first dismember them and then bury them in the mud, because he expected a satanic treasure to rise from the dead as a result.
Timeleap – Today: Based on the case of Tattarisuo, a musical monster arises from the ashes of Corpse Molester Cult to seemingly prove that death is not the end. DEAD TALKS from Lohja (Finland) are ready to unleash their full-length debut “Veneration Of The Dead” full of waltzing midtempo death metal tunes you can’t escape.
The first heavy guitar strums of ‘Son Of The Nameless One’ let a slow bulldozer roll over the listener, leaving behind nothing but wasteland. You have to face ‘The Human Plague’ now, an all-crushing stomper. The horror picks up the pace – but just a little – to make ‘508’ even more hazardous, and it seems like ‘The End Of The Tunnel’ has been reached. But DEAD TALKS live up to their name and make you face a ‘Pedophile God’. Black’n’roll reigns while the hearse is driven by the ‘Death’s Charioteer’. After this ride, it’s getting more atmospheric during ‘Skinless’ before ‘Trigger/Religion’ makes you want to start the whole terror again.
“Veneration of The Dead” by DEAD TALKS will be released via APOSTASY RECORDS on August 18. 2023! Arm your ears for this strike of dread!

Since their sudden appearance on the scene with the self-titled debut album in 2020, Norwegian up-and-coming desert rockers SLOMOSA have hit the ground running with relentless tours alongside bands such as Orange Goblin, Sasquatch and Stöner. Now, following their recent signing with Stickman Records, the four-piece has shared a brand new song taken off their upcoming, second full-length, which they recently recorded at Polyfon Studio in their hometown of Bergen!
Just exclusively premiered via The Obelisk, a music video for the crushing laid-back banger, “Cabin Fever”, is now streaming here:
As SLOMOSA singer and guitarist Benjamin Berdous recently said: “The feel good vibes of our first album were apparent in the music, even though the lyrical themes were more serious and angry, but also in some sense comforting for me personally. Since then more of life has happened and things have gotten more serious, and as always this reflects on the music. It’s still important to me that we continue to offer something fresh in an at times homogeneous genre. Catchy vocal hooks and heavy guitar riffs is our recipe, and we don’t plan to mix up our diets!”

True Norwegian black metal pioneer MAYHEM will be releasing a monumental live album, ‘Daemonic Rites,’ on September 15, 2023 via Century Media Records! The record is a comprehensive look at the legendary band’s chaotic and intense performances from various cities around the world over the last two years. The album promises to be a thrilling sonic journey for fans and a testament to Mayhem’s unparalleled live prowess.
In conjunction with the upcoming release, Mayhem is now unveiling a first look with a performance video of the first single, “Malum (Live 2022).” Filmed during the band’s March 2022 concert in New York City in collaboration with renowned director Zev Deans, the clip encapsulates the intensity and ferocity that Mayhem brings to the stage.
“We wanted to document how great the band and set sounds like after almost 40 years of playing live,” explains Necrobutcher. “As a treat to our fans, we decided to release this live recording.
“I knew from day one back in 1984 that this band was going to be outstanding—one of the best bands ever! I guess that’s a big reason why we still are here after 39 years—andcounting.”
‘Daemonic Rites’ marks the culmination of the ‘Daemon’ era, which commenced in 2019 with the release of their critically acclaimed studio album, ‘Daemon.’ The journey continued with the savage EP ‘Atavistic Black Disorder’ in 2021, leaving audiences hungry for more. This latest live conglomeration serves as the ultimate chapter-closer for this landmark.

Chicago, Illinois based metal outfit REPENTANCE has delivered another intense taste of their highly-anticipated sophomore full-length record, entitled “The Process Of Human Demise”, which will be out on September 1 via powerhouse label Noble Demon. Following the release of the first single “Withered & Decayed” (feat. Milo Silvestro of FEAR FACTORY), REPENTANCE follows up today with a lyric video for the album’s opening track “Buried By Fear”.
Guitarist Shaun Glass comments: “When we first started up the early jams of this song I knew it was something special & 100% was going to be a absolute bruiser of a song. Fast forward to June at the return of Milwaukee Metal Fest we debuted the song live for everyone and it was quite the response and for us as well! I can 100% say this track will punch you in the throat but in a good way!“
Vocalist Adam Gilley adds: “Buried by Fear is a smash to the face right from the start. It has the thrash and the groove to keep you moving. The song is about the fear of the unknown, the fear of death. Not knowing what is to be offered on the other side.“
Founded in 2018 by former SOIL and DIRGE WITHIN guitarist Shaun Glasss, REPENTANCE is a primal aggressive metal band; laden thick with heavy slabs of groove mesh that bleed intensity. Having played numerous gigs with high profile acts such as Trivium, Devildriver, Jinjer, Skull Fist, Toxic Holocaust, Sacred Reich and others, the band soon became known for their distinctive heavy yet dynamic sound, loaded with details and tension. In September 2021 REPENTANCE have announced their worldwide signing to Noble Demon, followed by the release of the band’s critically acclaimed latest EP “Volume I – Reborn” (2021). Five tracks of aggressive, fast-paced and technical compositions, enhanced by tight and sharp production, delivered an impressive Noble Demon debut and served as the perfect appetizer for the band’s sophomore full-length record. “The Process Of Human Demise” features 12 brand new tracks showcasing REPENTANCE at their strongest yet – With guest contributions from the likes of TRIVIUM‘s Corey Beaulieu and FEAR FACTORY‘s Milo Silvestro, the band’s upcoming album has become a relentless and intense maelstrom that will sweep you along and an album not to be missed in 2023!
“The Process Of Human Demise” was produced by Alex Lackner at Accelerated Sound. Mix and master by Chris Collier at CMC21 Productions. Album artwork by Colin Marks (Rain Song Design).
