Los Angeles-based two-time Grammy-nominated guitarist, Sin Quirin, has founded a cosmic new heavy metal band SIGLOS. SIGLOS features the transcendent strings of Sin Quirin, former iconic Ministry band member of 15 years, and the demanding vocals of Pedro Sanchez from the band Transtorno. SIGLOS will be releasing its first song, Por Los Siglos, and will be available on all platforms. Por Los Siglos was written by Sin Quirin and Pedro Sanchez. The song was produced, mixed, and mastered by Alex Crescioni at Stygian Sound. Sin Quirin is managed by Shawn Barusch, founder of Music Gallery International, an industry leader in artist management, tour booking, and production for artists in rock and metal genres.

What the music industry is saying about Sin Quirin (SIGLOS)

“Sin is a singularly unique talent, underrated guitar hero, and a key dynamic member of every project he’s done, and I can’t wait to hear what he does next! I know it’s going to be stellar!”

Gary Holt

“Sin has been a solid backbone to everything he’s been involved in and it’s great to see him stepping out now to do his own thing. He is a true rockstar in every sense of the word”

David Ellefson

“SIGLOS, Dark, Powerful, Majic!

Listening to SIGLOS brings all this and more weaving through the stories of old and bridging through to the world of today. Hypnotic vocals and entrenching melodies prove SIGLOS to be a Dark Force for the future worldwide.”

Shawn Barusch

Artis Management, Music Gallery International

Por Los Siglos is representative of a rebirth, akin to a heavy metal big bang. Sin Quirin says of the single, “The time is now and our ancestors have been waiting for this. For the ages, Por Los Siglos. For the ages to break ourselves free and in doing so, we are able to free our ancestors and future generations from the chains of our past karmas.”

The dawn of SIGLOS is the result of divine timing and the unyielding will to have a hand in cosmic creation without rules. In the words of Sin Quirin, “The music from SIGLOS comes from the cosmic world, where the stars have aligned and not just by coincidence. My vision and understanding of this project is that it’s divine timing and we have messages, perceptions, emotions to be shared, to be touched by the masses…The music resonates in me and I am able to express and speak in the language of the soul.” Pedro Sanchez feels the same, calling it “Magic that he and Sin are able to create together as a band and as a tribe”. He comments, “It’s a great pleasure and honor to be picked up and be chosen to do this collaboration. We are both hard workers, creators of reality, and believers of the work we do.”

The raw chords and heavy compositions of SIGLOS are influenced by every sight, sound and emotion ever experienced by Sin.. Experience the relentless fervor of SIGLOS in their first single Por Los Siglos COMING SOON on PLATFORMS. SIGLOS continues to work on new music. Expect to hear more from them soon.

About SIGLOS:

SIGLOS is a heavy metal band combining aspects of Black Metal, Doom Metal, and Industrial Metal. It features Sin Quirin from Ministry, RevCo, American Head Charge, Society 1 and 3 Headed Snake and Pedro Sanchez from Transtorno. The pair blend their Mexican and Spanish roots to the lyrics, rhythms, and music, creating heavy metal riffs with a raw intensity unlike any before.

Amazon Best Selling Author Elise Krentzel on Touring with KISS in 1977: “Under My Skin – Drama, Trauma & Rock ‘n’ Roll”

Under My Skin – Drama, Trauma & Rock ‘n’ Roll is author Elise Krentzel’s memoir of her life between the ages of 5 through 20. Growing up in New York City during the end of the 1960s flower power era and into the tumultuous rock and roll 1970s, she reveals how a young girl in a toxic family survives by plowing all her energy and talent into writing and music. While still in high school she is published and throws herself into the music business full-force. Eventually, at the tender age of nineteen Elise is invited to become part of the Kiss Army; one of several journalists invited to tour with Kiss, with one of the greatest rock bands of all time to Japan. Think Almost Famous only female. But there’s more!

Elise Krentzel shares with readers how her life – beginning with the invitation to tour with the band, to the flight with Kiss on the PanAm Kiss Clipper, to the actual tour around the country that ended with the iconic live Kiss LP Live at the Budokan – became one of the most pivotal moments in Kiss’s history, and in hers!

Conversations with manager Bill Aucoin reveal what his strategy for the band was prior to the tour, “Fact is, this is the last hurrah for the band. After the Pacific tour and Canada, we record one more album, and then the band’s finished,” while Al Ross, Kiss’ PR manager from The Press Office primed Elise for her arrival in Japan and introduced her to the key players in the music industry in Tokyo. While on tour Elise gets involved in a host of different situations, some life threatening, others simply audacious. She writes a Kiss Diary for Music Life, the leading Japanese rock magazine of its era.

ANTE-INFERNO Share First Album Details & Brand New Music Video

Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: ANTE-INFERNO. Leave a comment

Following their acclaimed debut album “Fane”, UK black metallers ANTE-INFERNO have announced to release their sophomore full length record, entitled “Antediluvian Dreamscapes“, on May 13th via Vendetta Records. Featuring 7 brand new tracks, with “Antediluvian Dreamscapes” Ante-Inferno have created a dark and mournful, harsh and desolate universe, taking the listener on an emotional journey through the spheres of atmospheric black metal.

Ante-Inferno comments:
Welcome to our Antediluvian Dreamscapes: seven pitiless memorials to a life that once was and may never be. Seven gateways, bound thickly with the blood of ages beyond; a celestial mirage whose tendrils enshroud the listener in fathomless depths of human misery. Arise, as you are transported through the veil of life and death, past and future, to a place where the birth of time unites with the end of all time. A place where the rising waters of the flood collide with the battery of wars to come; where, as we drown in the shadowed waters of holy vengeance, so too are we engulfed in the flaming fire of the eschaton, driven out of Hell. Will you continue to dangle precariously from the thread of life, a mere witness to this nightmare? Or will you plummet into the depths of eternity, a shade forgotten by time, a transcendental vision no more tangible than the failing light of a star at the end of its existence? We invite you to listen.

To shorten your wait for Ante-Inferno’s upcoming album, the band has just released a first and enthralling album single, one that will most likely leave you with a hunger for more! Watch the epic, new music video for “Celestial Mirage” here:

Ante-Inferno on “Celestial Mirage”:
“Celestial Mirage” tells the story of a stricken man dying alone in a ditch in some distant land. A victim of war and endless slaughter, this pitiful soul stares at the sky and dreams of his homeland, praying for a swift passage into the afterlife as the mists gather and the darkness draws in, and the insects begin to flitter around his bloodied limbs, lured implacably by the aroma of death. As this fragile human life passes into the emptiness of the beyond, he witnesses the celestial mirage into which he had invested so much hope and prayer, break apart in the sky and disappear; lost to him now and forever.

Tracklist:

  1. A Lullaby to a Dying World
  2. Transcendence
  3. Celestial Mirage
  4. Shadowed Waters
  5. Two Score and Ten Souls
  6. Beyond the Immemorial Veil
  7. Nightmares of the Eschaton

“Antediluvian Dreamscapes” will be coming out May 13th on Vendetta Records and is now available for pre-order HERE

“The Everlasting Plague” was recorded earlier this year at Sharkbite Studios. The album was produced by Zack Ohren who also handled engineering and mixing. The demented priest sometimes seen gracing the cover of other PATHOLOGY albums makes a reappearance here as an apex zombie ripping the flesh from his fellow dead man as he ascends to the top of a demolished city. Long-time artist companion Par Olofsson returned to the PATHOLOGY fold to design the piece.

DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER Release Music Video for New Single ‘Euer Gott Ist Der Tod’

Germany’s most spectacular band are Weimar’s DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER. The band whose name translates as “Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”, brandish a unique brand of melodic heaviness, accompanied by singular, intense lyrics. Since forming back in 1995, DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER have remained innovative and courageous, delivering a form of extreme metal that is second to none. In the artistic realm of the Weimar based quartet there are no rules – anarchy, a free flow of ideas and visions reign supreme!

With a highly supportive and engaged following at their side, they achieved #10 in Germany’s official charts with their album “Der Rote Reiter”. The band has played every major metal festival and countless fans have succumbed to “Reitermania” – which is the wild and crazy experience that only DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER can provide.  

The band are currently getting ready to release “Wilde Kinder” (=“Wild Children”), their new album due out on April 22, 2022 – the official successor to “Der Rote Reiter” (2017)!

And today, they present their brand new single ‘Euer Gott Ist Der Tod’ (= ‘Your God Is Death’). A harbinger of the apocalypse – where death and darkness unite in an invincible alliance. An epic masterpiece! Centre stage as a shining angel amongst the pitch-black chaos is former DEADLOCK singer Sabine Scherer.

Get the single digitally here: https://reitermania.bfan.link/euer-gott-ist-der-tod

“Mors et nox in concordia invicta – United are Death and Night in invincible alliance. So shall it be – until the last sound is gone, all regret is washed away and the old earth is hanging dead in the sky.” // (DIE APOKALYPTISCHEN REITER)

Recently, the band announced “The March For Freedom”, a special worldwide streaming event, which will celebrate the release of their new album and is set to be the ultimate experience of Reitermania’s live-power!
