Hard-hitting Australian metallers CARBON BLACK have announced a partnership with Wormholedeath for the release of ‘We Remain’ Special Edition. The album was initially released independently in 2022 and received critical acclaim, with several positive reviews. Carbon Black is thrilled to partner with Wormholedeath to bring their music to even more audiences around the world.

‘We Remain’ is an album that Carbon Black is immensely proud of, and for good reason. The album was recorded piece by piece throughout 2020 and 2021, during a time of great personal and global turmoil. Despite the challenges, the band persevered, and the result is a powerful collection of songs that speak to the experiences of the last two years. Legendary producer Kevin “Caveman” Shirley, known for his work with Dream Theater and Iron Maiden, mixed the album, adding his immense experience to create a truly thunderous mix that sets the bar higher than ever. The song “Under Order” also features a guest appearance by former Judas Priest vocalist Tim Ripper Owens.

“We are extremely excited to announce our partnership with Wormholedeath to bring a Special Edition of ‘We Remain’ to a worldwide release,” said Carbon Black. “With their professionalism and proven history, we’re certain the album will reach many more ears than ever before!”

Tracklist

  1. Red Flag
  2. The One Who Knows My Name
  3. Scars
  4. Under Order (Feat. Tim “Ripper” Owens)
  5. We Bleed
  6. One Enemy
  7. Our Reprise
  8. Under Order (Solo Version)

Carbon Black is based on the south coast of New South Wales, Australia. Their debut EP ‘Principium’ impressed the critics, scoring 4/5 in both ‘Heavy Mag’ and ‘Metal as F*ck.’ The band’s first album, ‘End of This,‘ recorded with ARIA award-winning producer/engineer Lachlan Mitchell, received very positive reviews and exposed the band to many new ears with a string of coveted local shows sharing the stage with Max & Igorr Cavalera, Marty Friedman, Voivod, and more.

Carbon Black’s lineup includes Jonathan Hurley on vocals, Steve Giles on drums and percussion, Rob Giles on bass guitar, and Damon Bishop on guitar. The band’s blend of social and political commentary and a lot of heart has earned them a loyal following and critical acclaim.

July 28th will see the release of “Awakening Rage”, the third studio album by Brazilian thrashers BLACKNING, which will see the light of day via Swedish label Black Lion Records. “Awakening Rage” revolves around all the disturbing things imposed on us, politricks, lies and control of the masses. There’s anger, fast riffs, slow chunky grooves, and all the chemistry that the band learned on tour through Europe, Russia and Brazil. “Awakening Rage” delivers nothing less than eleven tracks of pure mayhem and after releasing the first single “Never To Be Free”, the band follows up today with a lyric video for the track “Eye For An Eye”. Watch the video below.

BLACKNING comments:
“Eye For An Eye is a song that speaks of a context of revenge against those who try to escape unscathed from their despicable acts, where a person has the chance to find his enemy and make him pay for everything he has done. A revenge act in a payback time. The sound is heavy and groovy, with a catchy chorus, with elements that Blackning itself never used in previous materials.
Crank it up and pull the trigger!”

“Awakening Rage” was mixed and mastered by Marcos Cerutti and the cover artwork was created by the renowned German artist Björn Gosses from Killustrations. The album is available for pre-order at THIS LOCATION

Tracklist:

  1. Violate
  2. Greed and Lies
  3. Disfigured Trust
  4. Lamb To The Slaughter
  5. Never To Be Free
  6. Insanity In Power
  7. Lex Talionis
  8. Vengeance Is Mine
  9. Eye For An Eye
  10. Unnamed Reality
