DEVORZHUM is a quite fresh band on the Polish metal scene formed in 2021 where in the line-up we can find experienced musician – Szymon “Simon” Bieńkowski well-known of playing in the past in such bands as Morbus Mortifer, Supreme Lord, Vomigod, Depravity and Rigor Mortis.

Less than three years ago, the band released their debut album, “Exigens Monumentum,” which was very well received by both the media and listeners. The band has been working hard on their new release and will soon release a nearly 30-minute concept mini-album that tells a dark tale, full of blood, pain, and suffering.

The Poznań-based black metal band takes us on a journey to the burning, blood-soaked Middle East. “O królestwie, którego nigdy nie było…” is a tale of suffering, death, and revenge. A story that is not a myth or a fictionalized narrative, but a long-standing reality for families, ethnic groups, and entire nations. A reality that is still largely shaped by religious fanaticism.

The new release is a four-song concept in which the band expands their music with new layers and a more complex narrative. Devorzhum develops their existing sound, but gives it even greater intensity and weight. The band does not abandon its identity, but rather pursues it further – towards greater space, tension, and emotional depth.

“O królestwie, którego nigdy nie było…” is a cohesive work both musically and thematically – raw in its message, yet more mature in its form. And this is just the beginning of a story the band is already announcing its continuation.

The music for upcoming record was recorded, mixed and mastered by Simon. Cover artwork was done by ET-40. Band logo by Kontamination Design (Akhlys, Dimmu Borgir, Taake). Band live photo was done by A. Werens. New album will be released on April 10, 2026 in digital format and CD by Polish label Via Nocturna (pre-order).

Stream song “Czas Zemsty“:

TRACKLIST:

01. Initium Belli
02. Czarne Ptaki Października
03. Czas Rozpaczy
04. Czas Zemsty
05. Płacz królestwa, którego nigdy nie było

Indian MANEATING ORCHID Announce Third Album “Cold Logic”, Out June 5th

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

Indian prog metal/mathcore powerhouse Maneating Orchid will release their third full-length album, Cold Logic, on June 5th, 2026. The album will be available internationally via Subcontinental Records.

Maneating Orchid’s third full-length album, Cold Logic, continues the evolution of the band’s manic soundscape. Abrupt left turns, uneven song forms, and caustic harmonic passages shape a suffocating 34-minute experience. Jagged, angular riffs collide with violently dynamic blast beats, warped and syncopated low-end patterns, and hellish screams, forming a shifting wall of sound that feels perpetually on the brink of collapse.

With the addition of new drummer Vishnu Reddy, the band’s already volatile sound is pushed even further, amplifying its feral intensity just when it appears to have reached its limits. The result is a relentless collision of dissonant death metal, aggressive punk urgency, and math-leaning progressive passages, assembled in deliberately uneven proportions.

Lyrically and thematically, Cold Logic grapples with cosmic dread, deep space isolation, and the psychological horror of confronting a reality stripped of narrative and intention. Across the album, perception fractures, identity dissolves, and the self mutates beyond recognition. Post-human transformation and body horror emerge not as spectacle, but as symptoms of existential decay. Time, meaning, and consciousness begin to fold under an indifferent universe’s cold scrutiny. This marks a decisive shift away from the more socio-political themes of the band’s previous releases.

Track list:
01 Dimension Exile
02 Cosmic Shroud
03 Ionized Green
04 Void Engine
05 Hollow World
06 Arcological Horror
07 Binary Contagion
08 Dreaming
09 Neon Static
10 Malformed Horizon
11 Astral Codex

Formed in 2011, Maneating Orchid has spent over a decade carving out a distinct space in extreme music. Previously known as “Orchid,” the band has forged a sound that twists progressive metal and mathcore into something volatile and unhinged. With dense, dissonant riffing, abrasive vocals, and song structures that collapse and mutate in real time, they have consistently pushed the boundaries of heavy music while developing a voice that is unmistakably their own.

Their 2016 self-titled EP introduced them as true outliers, earning cult status and critical praise. The debut full-length, Miasma (2019), sharpened that chaotic edge further, cementing their reputation for crafting unpredictable music that defies easy categorisation. By the time Hive Mind (2022) arrived, Maneating Orchid had fully evolved into one of contemporary extreme metal’s most singular and uncompromising voices, with no intention of sounding comfortable or familiar.

Now, with their third album on the horizon, the band is diving even deeper into sonically mercurial territory.

For fans of: Voivod, Watchtower, Dysrhythmia, Gorguts, Spastik Ink, Converge, Cardiacs, Blotted Science, Botch, Discordance Axis, Mico, Behold… The Arctopus

About Monoliyth:

Formed in 1998 by guitarist Mick Barr in Melbourne, MONOLIYTH has maintained a relentless dedication to extreme music across decades. Evolving from classic thrash to old-school death metal with hints of technical death, their music delivers aggressive, complex, and boundary-pushing compositions.

He Who Kills explores the darker side of humanity, focusing on the psychology of serial killers as a lens into depravity, rather than specific historical events. The album blends pounding rhythms, menacing instrumentation, unnerving tension, and cathartic release, fueled by guttural vocals and diminished harmonies. Drawing influence from thrash legends like Kreator, Metallica, Megadeth, and death metal icons such as Morbid Angel, Suffocation, and Death, MONOLIYTH crafts a sonic assault that is uniquely their own.

IVOIRE to Release Debut Album “Uragano” on May 8th, First Single ‘Vetta’ Out Now

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

IVOIRE announce the release of their debut album “Uragano”, due out on May 8, 2026: an emotionally devastating, intense and layered work, capable of turning the weight of pain into dense, dark and deeply immersive sonic matter.

The first single “Vetta” is now available HERE.

With “Uragano”, the band shape a personal expressive language in which a solid post-metal foundation intertwines with an intricate interplay of tension and texture, opening up to further shades that include black metal elements and atmospheric passages. The result is a thick and shadowy sound, oppressive yet never static, capable of suddenly opening into waves of melancholy, rarefied passages and moments of almost contemplative suspension. It is precisely within this unstable balance between impact and fragility, fury and introspection, that the album finds its deepest identity.

“Uragano” was born in December 2021, when Nicolò Lenoci, founder of IVOIRE and, up to that point, the project’s main songwriter, decided to put a series of personal reflections into words. From that intimate yet unavoidable creative urgency, the first embryonic ideas for the songs began to emerge, eventually forming the backbone of the album. The record developed as a process of surfacing, in which inner tensions, visions and emotional fragments gradually took shape as a coherent and lacerating sonic narrative.

From a musical standpoint, the album moves between post-metal, sludge and black metal influences, alternating moments of overwhelming intensity with more rarefied and atmospheric sections. Harsh vocals intertwine with ambient passages and spoken-word moments, feeding a constant contrast between implosion and release, violence and reflection. The concept behind “Uragano” revolves around decay and the exploration of the boundary between destruction and catharsis: an imagery that does not end with the writing of the songs, but also extends into the live dimension, conceived as a natural continuation of the world evoked by the record.

The full-length features, alongside Nicolò Lenoci, Antonio Caggese on vocals and Giovanni Solazzo (Turangalila, Duocane) on drums. Further enriching the album are Fabrizio Cioce (Zolfo), appearing in the outro of “Sotto la Cenere”, and Michael Anthony Foti (Die Sünde), who wrote the lyrics for and performed vocals on “Chimera”. Together, these contributions broaden the album’s emotional scope and reinforce its collective dimension while remaining firmly rooted in a clearly defined artistic vision.

In 2025, the project finally found its definitive line-up with the permanent addition of Sebastiano Liso on guitar, Cipo (The Apulian Blues Foundation) on drums and Francesco Bizzoca (Sürd, A Violet Pine) on bass. This is the line-up with which IVOIRE present themselves today, ready to accompany the release of “Uragano” and bring its full expressive force to the stage.

With “Uragano”, IVOIRE deliver a debut that seeks no compromise: a visceral, bleak and deeply human record that descends into the cracks and turns them into sound.

Tracklist:

01. Le Catene dell’Estro
02. Vetta
03. Tempeste
04. Chimera
05. Sotto La Cenere
