Attention Rock and Rollers and Heavy Metal Maniacs:

Purchase Street Records is proud to partner with fellow New Englanders Savant Guarde Records to release a fantastic brand-new live EP album titled: All Sinners: Live at the Whiskey Vol. 2

This brand-new live release has all the hallmarks of an instant live classic and showcases the group performing an all-out blitz of a set, with songs so well-crafted and hook-laden, you’ll raise your fist and sing along.

All Sinners manage to create modern anthemic metal classics that sound like they belong on that lost ’80s horror soundtrack you partied to in an alternate universe all summer long, where anthemic classics and hypnotic solos follow blistering rhythm tracks and babes with knives for eyes kill, thrill, and stalk the night.

Vocalist/guitarist Mike Golarz has the voice, a perfect hard rock voice with control and class, the guy you wish you had in your band. He really heats up the Whiskey A Go-Go singing tracks like “Into the Flames” and the out-of-left-field fantastic “Rise Up”, an original classic with cries reminiscent of Y&T’s Dave Meniketti on a warpath, with all the class of a modern band who pays homage to the past while owning their own image and style completely.

A fine display of talent from all members; Bruce Morrison’s bass playing on songs like “I’m a Believer” is very reminiscent of backbone players like Ross Valory, just holding down the track so effortlessly and calm-cool while scorching solos fly overhead from lead guitarist Nick Testone.

The album is steam-powered by one of the heaviest-hitting drummers around and a legend in his own right, New Bedford’s Roger Chouinard, a man who obviously had one of the best drum teachers (it shows) and coolest uncles in New England, the drum legend Bobby Chouinard (ever heard Alice Cooper’s “Poison”?).

If you enjoyed All Sinners’ debut We Own the Night, you’ll be knocked out when you hear the guys perform an impeccable run through some of the best songs on their record, including “Rise Up”, which is not featured on the studio release and is a total highlight of the album.

All Sinners: Live at the Whiskey Vol. 2 was recorded 100% live on November 5, 2025, by Whisky Productions and was mixed by Ivo Mattos and mastered by Pete Ubiss, with artwork by Dave Hudon.

The live album has certainly grown in popularity over the past few years since the days of forced isolation, and a new demand has grown for live albums.

All Sinners are the rare band that rule the stage and the studio. They are 100% working-class rockers through and through (emphasis on class).

Make sure you pick up their incredible debut WE OWN THE NIGHT and get yourself a copy of their latest EP LIVE AT THE WHISKEY VOL. 2.

From All Sinners, one of the hardest-working bands in the Northeast today.

THE ETERNAL Unveil New Lyric Video for Album Title Track ‘Obscured Horizons’

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

Australian/Finnish progressive dark metal masters THE ETERNAL have unveiled a brand-new lyric video for “Obscured Horizons,” the title track of their latest studio album, released on September 18, 2026 via Reigning Phoenix Music! Following their successful Australian tour alongside Finnish metal icons AMORPHIS, the band continues to celebrate their critically acclaimed record with a new visual offering that shines a spotlight on its progressive depth and musical sophistication.

Showcasing a different side of the album than its previous singles, “Obscured Horizons” brings the band’s progressive influences to the forefront. Blending intricate guitar work, atmospheric passages, and haunting melodies, the track unfolds with a sense of both melancholy and hope, capturing the emotional complexity and expansive songwriting that define THE ETERNAL‘s latest work. Its dynamic arrangements and immersive atmosphere offer another compelling glimpse into the band’s ever-evolving sound.

The release follows a successful run of Australian shows supporting AMORPHIS in September, which saw THE ETERNAL bring their distinctive blend of dark, atmospheric metal to audiences across Melbourne, Brisbane, Sydney, and Canberra. Their live performances earned praise from the press, with AMNPLIFY highlighting frontman Mark Kelson’s “vocals were delivered with a worldclass polish and commanding stage presence all set long” alongside the band’s musicianship of “a really high calibre,” while HOT METAL hailed their show as “an equally powerful performance.”

Meanwhile, Obscured Horizons continues to receive praise from the international metal press. UK’s POWERPLAY MAGAZINE hailed the record as “a remarkable addition to The Eternal’s canon,” while Germany’s METAL HAMMER celebrated it as “a total work of art,” and Australia’s METAL ROOS praised its “depth and creativity that is unmatched!” In a recent interview with Denmark’s METALIZED MAGAZINE, Mark Kelson also shed light on the band’s progressive approach: “When we talk about our music being progressive, it shouldn’t be understood as us being technical wizards. We’re not Dream Theater. The experimental side comes through in the atmospheric textures.”

Looking ahead, THE ETERNAL are set to return to Finland in June 2027, performing at Kesä Mössö in Lahti alongside AMORPHIS and Danish rock veterans D-A-D. With more live announcements coming soon, fans can look forward to further opportunities to experience the band’s captivating music on stage!

Released on September 18, 2026, via Reigning Phoenix Music, Obscured Horizons marks the eighth studio album from THE ETERNAL. Following the widespread acclaim of their 2024 full-length Skinwalker and the evocative 2026 EP Celestial, the band returns with one of its most immersive and ambitious works to date, further refining its signature blend of doom-laden textures, progressive sophistication, and haunting melodic resonance.

At its core, Obscured Horizons explores disillusionment, fractured identity, and the struggle to reclaim clarity in a world saturated with distortion. Moving through emotional collapse, existential unrest, and eventual renewal, the album confronts deception, memory, and the search for self-awareness. Combining melancholic atmospheres with crushing heaviness, intricate arrangements, and cinematic depth, THE ETERNAL deliver a deeply personal yet expansive listening experience.

Featuring Mark Kelson (vocals/guitars) and Richie Poate (guitars) in Melbourne, alongside Niclas Etelävuori (bass, ex-AMORPHIS/FLAT EARTH) and Jan Rechberger (drums, AMORPHIS) in Helsinki, the band continues to bridge continents through a shared musical vision. Produced by Kelson and Rechberger, Obscured Horizons represents both culmination and evolution, reaffirming THE ETERNAL‘s place among the most distinctive voices in progressive dark metal.

Obscured Horizons is available on CD, vinyl, and digital formats via Reigning Phoenix Music.

STEFANIA SISTU Explores the Most Intimate & Profound Side of Her Music with New Single ‘In The Wind’

Posted by tarjavirmakari on October 30, 2026
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: . Leave a comment

An intense and refined track blending rock influences, evocative melodies, and reflections on loss, memory, and the universal human desire to leave a lasting mark. STEFANIA SISTU returns with In the Wind, her new single released by Volcano Records, marking an intriguing evolution in the singer-songwriter’s artistic journey.

After exploring the more energetic and hard-hitting sounds of rock and melodic metal, the artist now embraces a more intimate and introspective dimension, allowing the power of melody and the intensity of her vocal performance to convey deep and universal emotions. In the Wind is a song about absence, memory, and the fear of being forgotten. At its heart lies one of the most profound concerns of the human condition: the desire to leave a mark, to live on in the memories of those we love, and to find a meaning that can transcend time and even death. It is a delicate yet heartbreaking reflection, brought to life through evocative imagery and songwriting capable of transforming a deeply personal feeling into an experience anyone can relate to. Musically, the single reveals a particularly sophisticated side of Stefania Sistu’s artistry. Her rock identity remains unmistakable, but rather than relying on sheer sonic power, the arrangement makes room for harmonic nuances, dynamic contrasts, and an intricate melodic structure. The result is a captivating track that never needs to raise its voice to make an impact, finding its true strength in its emotional sensitivity and expressive depth. Once again, the artistic partnership with musician and composer Daniele Pireddu plays a fundamental role. Together, Stefania and Daniele continue to develop a musical project driven by the ambition to combine a distinctive rock identity with melodic exploration and emotional depth. A singer, songwriter, and vocal coach, Stefania Sistu demonstrates remarkable artistic maturity with In the Wind, showing her ability to explore different musical territories without losing sight of her identity. The single adds a new dimension to her repertoire and, perhaps more than any of her previous releases, offers a glimpse into the most personal aspects of her artistic sensibility. The release is also accompanied by a lyric video, inviting listeners to immerse themselves even further in the song’s words and atmosphere.

Listen to In the Wind on Spotify, Apple Music, and all major digital platforms, and watch the official lyric video on YouTube:

GREEN LUNG Reveal New Video for ‘Ozymandias’

Green Lung, the masters of occult riff-craft, today share new video ‘Ozymandias’, a Halloween treat, taken from their acclaimed fourth album Necropolitan (out now, Nuclear Blast).

Vocalist Tom Templar states: “We’re excited to share a new animation from the arcane imaginations of illustrator Richard Wells and animator Joseph Brett as a Halloween treat. ‘Ozymandias’ is one of our favourite songs on this album to play in the practice space, and we can’t wait to play it on tour in December. Adapted from Percy Bysshe Shelley’s poem musing on the futility of human empire-building, his words couldn’t be more relevant for today.”

A huge step forward in songwriting and vision, Necropolitan is the album Green Lung have been threatening to make since their inception.

As well as a portrait of the triumph and power of death and nature over the dreams and dominion of humankind, Necropolitan is a grand celebration of the folklore, occult and heavy music scene of the band’s birthplace, the city of London. The album title derives from the seven garden cemeteries (necropoli) circling the city, all built in the Victorian era.

With producer Tom Dalgety (Opeth, Ghost) at the helm, this time handling everything from recording to mixing, the band decamped to Rockfield Studios in January 2026, following in the muddy footprints of some of their key inspirations, from Black Sabbath to Queen to Judas Priest. Sonically, they were set on capturing their megalithic live sound more accurately than ever – stripping back their usual dense, multilayered arrangements to their rawest, leanest form and recording much of the album live to capture their Sabbathian heaviness, frenzied Hammonds and haunting Mellotrons as faithfully as possible.

The result is an album that combines the soaring hookiness of previous album This Heathen Land with an uncompromising rawness and heaviness, and takes the band’s distinctive brand of sonic storytelling to macabre new heights.

If, two years following Black Sabbath’s Back to the Beginning show and the death of Ozzy Osbourne, you had any doubts about the future of traditional British metal, Necropolitan lays them to rest. Here is a band taking the torch from the heavy metal godfathers and running with it, bursting with all the musicianship and storytelling flair that has kept the genre’s flame burning for a half-century, and using it to temper a lyrical and sonic world that is entirely their own.

A cult band in every sense of the word, Green Lung emerged from London’s heavy rock scene with self-released debut EP Free the Witch (2018).

Drawing on a host of peculiarly British musical influences, from doomy hard rock to pastoral prog and psych to the Hammer Horror theatrics of the NWOBHM, the band have swiftly risen to the forefront of the UK metal scene.

Lyrically celebrating the folklore, myths and legends of Britain, they conjure the wild and witchy spirit of their forebears for a new generation.

Green Lung have released three critically acclaimed albums, Woodland Rites (2019), Black Harvest (2021) and This Heathen Land (2023). They have toured internationally with Clutch, Opeth and Unto Others, and performed on festival stages from Roadburn to Download. Their latest album This Heathen Land landed at #1 on the UK’s Official Rock and Metal Album Chart.
