GENTLE SAVAGE have released their new official video ‘Carry The Fire‘, taken from their debut album “Midnight Waylay“.

Lead vocalist Tornado Bearstone tells the story behind the video:
We streamed our MIDNIGHT WAYLAY album release party in collaboration with the mighty Bravewords. That show left us with tons of high quality video material from different cameras and camera angles. We decided to make a music video for ‘Carry The Fire’ to show our stage presence rather than to shoot a video at a studio location without the real gig feel.
With that cool live footage in our hands we hired a Finnish digital artist named Ilari Kallinen to edit the video. He synched the live video footage with the studio audio and the result shows beautifully what Gentle Savage is about on stage.

Watch the video here.

Tornado adds:
Carry The Fire closes the Midnight Waylay album and holds a very important message;
The musical legacy we have inherited from the great ones is priceless and we want to carry it on with pride!
We put our hearts into Gentle Savage’s music and Carry The Fire Of Rock Music as a part of the endless chain of rock musicians and rock lovers for generations to come. The story proclaims the simple truth that Rock will never die!

Just recently the band released the Trilogy of “Midnight Waylay” album. Presented by lead vocalist and songwriter Tornado Bearstone the Trilogy gives you insights to what’s behind the songs and the stories. In case you missed them, watch below.

Trilogy Pt.1, includes songs ‘Karelian Magic’, ‘Personal Hades’ and ‘YNAMW (You Never Ask Me Why)’ – http://hyperurl.co/GentleSavage_Trilogy

Tornado on “Midnight Waylay” album: “Midnight Waylay depicts a ‘taking it easy in the daytime, turning into a beast at night’ kind of lifestyle. Just like a hunter strikes from the shadows, ruthless and silent, these songs can without warning rock your world. As a concept the album Midnight Waylay is best appreciated when served whole, but each song has its own character and works well independently. Find your own adventure, let yourself loose!”

Kimmo Kuusniemi, Godfather of Finnish heavy metal, on Gentle Savage’s debut album “Midnight Waylay”: “Listening to Gentle Savage reminds me of Deep Purple! That’s not bad at all!”

“Midnight Waylay” Track List:

  1. Karelian Magic
  2. Personal Hades
  3. YNAMW
    (You Never ask Me Why)
  4. Into The Abyss
  5. Honey Bunny
  6. After All
  7. Run Run Poor Boy
  8. Livin’ It Up
  9. Carry The Fire

Tornado on the album coverart:
“TWO SIDES TO EVERY STORY
Isn’t it strange that when you get something really big done you are at the same time relieved and a bit confused?! That’s how it feels like right now.
The cover art was created by our friend, graphic art wizard Vin Valentino. Vin and vocalist Tornado created the Midnight Waylay world based on Tornado’s visions of a Rock Band descending down to earth using a ‘stairway to heaven’. That’s Tornado’s way of showing his gratitude to the old great ones who showed the Rock’n Roll way for latter generations to roll. “

HYPOCRISY Release Music Video For Second Single ‘Dead World’

Posted by tarjavirmakari on October 1, 2021

With governments finally admitting that UFOs do in fact exist, and humanity attempting to heal from a state of the recent crisis, the timing couldn’t be more appropriate for the newest addition to the HYPOCRISY catalog: WORSHIP. Nuclear Blast Records. Today, the band releases the music video for the second single, “Dead World”. Watch the video directed by Andrey Kezzyn and Cooldown Production, here:

Peter Tägtgren comments, “‘Dead World’ is a song that Sebastian wrote for our father/son project that never saw the light of day. When he started playing the song, I felt that the world needs to hear this crushing song asap as the groove and tempo blew my mind. The video idea came from our director Andrey Kezzyn and it’s similar to my point of view of what’s about to come of the world. Maybe not literally, but who knows. Enjoy!”

WORSHIP will be released on November 26th via Nuclear Blast Records. PRE-ORDER and PRE-SAVE Worship here: https://www.hypocrisyband.com/worship

It has been 8 long years since the last record, and HYPOCRISY fans can feel the itch. WORSHIP is 11 tracks of precise, ferocious musicianship. Commonly inspired by the fusion of the modern and the ancient, HYPOCRISY has once more found a way to combine innovative ideas with classic sound in order to deliver something metalheads can enjoyably consume with awe and brutal vigor. As usual, all recording and mixing took place at Tägtgren’s Abyss Studio AB in Sweden while mastering was completed by Svante Forsbäck at Chartmakers Audio Mastering. Designed by artist Blake Armstrong (KATAKLYSM, IN FLAMES, CARNIFEX, etc.), WORSHIP’s artwork speaks to the history of the relationship between humanity and extraterrestrials.

ENSLAVED Release Video for ‘Ruun II – The Epitaph’, New EP Out Today

WISDOM AND CHAOS MUST UNITE, THE STORM WILL LINGER ON…

Enslaved’s new EP Caravans To The Outer Worlds has today been released unto the universe, alongside a beautiful video for the track Ruun II – The Epitaph. Viewers should note that the video is part two – a second part to the video which accompanied the EP title track.

A new cycle is underway, and Enslaved find themselves on a bridge between the archaic and the unmapped. Caravans To The Outer Worlds EP is a tale of departure, of leaving behind a barren and desolate world, travelling boldly into the future. There are outer worlds to go to and new havens to rebuild in, to invoke a new dawn and to defend the new world for those of Sense and Earth.

Order Caravans To The Outer Worlds physically + digitally here: https://bfan.link/caravans-to-the-outer-worlds.ema

Watch the new video for Ruun II – The Epitaph here:

Grutle Kjellson stated,
“Releasing an EP is a huge privilege, it really is. It is somehow reliving to go on a stroll away from the the album format, and take some leaps into obscurity in between two full lengths. There’s so many great and experimental EP’s in music history; Magical Mystery Tour, Garage Days Revisited, Deathcrush, The Golden Years… just to mention a very few. We hope Caravans To The Outer Worlds, our third EP in 30 years, can fascinate and inspire.”

Ivar Bjørnson stated,
“This EP is an expression of the vital state Enslaved is in – the idea to create a transitory release between Utgard and what is to come next logically led to the idea of an EP. Iver’s idea of adding short intermezzos between the two main songs gave this release even more energy and depth. This EP is one that points backwards towards our early works as well as forward to a yet unknown place we seem to be heading for.”

Caravans To The Outer Worlds EP contains neck breaking riffage that points backwards to the raw beginnings of Enslaved – the title track marking an explosive lift-off with melodic breakaways and proggy slingshots onto new orbits, while the ominous Ruun II: The Epitaph takes a sombre dive into the murky and mysterious ocean of stars beyond the known. These two main pieces are framed by two intermezzos: Intermezzo I: Lönnlig. Gudlig. and Intermezzo II: The Navigator; wrapping up the main stories with respectively what came before and what is to come…

MINISTRY Release Bold New Music Video For ‘Disinformation’, New Record Out Now

In celebration of the release of brand-new album “Moral Hygiene” – out TODAY via Nuclear Blast – MINISTRY release the explosive new music video for the latest single, ‘Disinformation’ about the slippery slope we find ourselves in when consuming mass media without critical thinking. See it here:

“Moral Hygiene” is MINISTRY’s 15th studio album and features some of the project’s strongest and most inspired material to date. It features the creative masterwork of founder and creator Al Jourgensen who spent the pandemic pause in 2020 ruminating on the new world we as a society have found ourselves in – while pondering just what we are going to do about it.

Stream “Moral Hygiene” here: http://nblast.de/MinistryMoralHygiene

The 10 tracks are a follow-up to 2018’s lauded “AmeriKKKant” and put forth Jourgensen’s societal manifesto and plea for civilization to get back to a set of standards that lives up to and embraces our humanity.

Previous singles have included ‘Alert Level’ (sounding the alarm on the state society is in), ‘Good Trouble’ (a rallying cry to fight for human rights in homage to Civil Rights leader John Lewis) and ‘Search And Destroy’ (the unique take on The Stooges classic), the latter of which features guitar virtuoso Billy Morrison (Billy Idol/Royal Machines). Morrison is also heavily featured on a number of songs on the album. The record also includes a collaboration with Jello Biafra (Jourgensen’s cohort in side project LARD) on ‘Sabotage Is Sex’.

“Moral Hygiene” was recorded with engineer Michael Rozon (also behind the boards on “AmeriKKKant”) at Scheisse Dog Studio, Jourgensen’s self-built home studio and creative lab. As with all MINISTRY albums, all songs are written and performed by Al Jourgensen. Additional contributions come from Billy Morrison (Billy Idol, Royal Machines), Cesar Soto (Man The Mute), John Bechdel (Killing Joke, Fear Factory), Roy Mayorga (Stonesour, Soulfly, Nausea), Paul D’Amour (Tool, Feersum Ennjin), Arabian Prince (N.W.A.), Jello Biafra (Dead Kennedys) and sitar player Flash.

Here is what media has had to say about “Moral Hygiene”:

“MINISTRY’s new LP ‘Moral Hygiene’ is one of their best … ‘Moral Hygiene’ has quickly become one of my favorite records of 2021 … MINISTRY mastermind Al Jourgensen has come back to embrace some of the soundscapes found in the band’s earlier releases.” – Metal Insider

“’Moral Hygiene’ is truly an album for its time. … It is fresh, relevant, and stacked with incisive socio-political commentary from one of extreme music’s veterans of discontented rage. … Exciting, angry, and unapologetic: exactly how we like our MINISTRY.” – Hysteria Magazine

“Having bands like MINISTRY around is still pretty critical when it feels like the social contract is hanging together by a thread. … What Jourgensen has been able to do … is make each MINISTRY album a statement about the world we live in now and what we should do to make it better. The music is as abrasive and confrontational as ever.” – Wall Of Sound

“Moral Hygiene” is available now in CD, vinyl and digital download formats at the following links:
