SKARLETT RIOT Release New Strong Music Video For New Single ‘Underwater’

After all the great response for the third and latest album ‘Invicta’, the hard-hitting UK quartet SKARLETT RIOT reinforced their interest from far and wide. Skarlett Riot have released a new single and music video for the song ‘Underwater‘.

The band comments; “Underwater expresses the emotions of losing yourself to your inner demons and dark thoughts in your head. The visually stunning video tells the story of a girl who is crying for help as her inner demons keep on dragging her down, pulling her deeper and deeper underground”. / Skarlett Riot.  

More about latest album: ‘Invicta‘ is the most focussed and forthright release of the band’s career. Built around the spectacular vocals of Skarlett and a powerful musical landscape unique to the band, ‘Invicta‘ is a melodic, intense, and packed with anthems. Skarlett has broadened her vocals this time out, adding some harsh elements to proceedings, giving the songs and the band and aggressive edge. The album was released May 7th 2021.

Skarlett Riot have taken the scene by storm with their powerful, riff-led songs blending melody and grit with a muscular backbone. Add to that an ear for infectious hooks, a singer blessed with a huge voice, and you have a band that not only has bags of attitude but the songs to back them up! Having wowed audiences at Download Festival, earning a 4KKKK live review from KERRANG!, Leeds and Reading Festival, Metal Female Voices Festival, Bloodstock, Hard Rock Hell, Camden Rocks, Steelhouse, Takedown, Giants Of Rock, S.O.S and a host of other festivals, Skarlett Riot have also shared stages with the likes of Funeral For A Friend, Butcher Babies, Deaf Havana, The Darkness, Wednesday 13, Heaven’s Basement, Kamelot, Gus G, Devilskin, Hammerfall, Glamour Of The Kill, Leaves’ Eyes, Symo Cyco, Black Spiders, plus many more. 

WHERE STARS COLLIDE Release New Single + Video ‘Path’

‘Path’ is the third single that anticipates WHERE STARS COLLIDE‘s debut album, coming out later this year.

The band comments:

‘Path’ is the third single that anticipates our new debut album. Through ‘Path’ we reflect on life’s continuous stream of difficulties, that make it hard to keep the right pace when we walk on the ‘path’ of existence. The lyrics consist in a dialogue with personified life, which seems indifferent and uninterested in our needs. But we manage not to give up: life’s paths are all similar to each other, but they offer several stumbling blocks. Our job is to understand which way is the right one for us, to reach our fulfilment. ‘Path’ is made of a sweeter melody and deals with the same themes found in ‘Freedom’ and ‘Rage’, with a more positive tone.

NIGHT CROWNED Unleash New Album “Hädanfärd”

Posted by tarjavirmakari on July 10, 2021
Posted in: Int. News, News. Tagged: NIGHT CROWNED. Leave a comment

Praised by fans and critics alike for their outstanding 2020 debut album (“Impius Viam“), Sweden’s NIGHT CROWNED have unleashed the hotly anticipated & worthy successor, titled “Hädanfärd”!

With nine tracks spanning over 45 minutes, the band’s brand new full-length record is an intoxicating blend of uncompromising blackened death metal, symphonic arrangements and bleak & mesmerizing soundscapes. No surprise here, since the band’s line-up consits of well experienced extreme metal veterans, featuring former and current members of legendary acts such as Dark Funeral, Nightrage and Cipher System!

Thematically inspired by a story by singer K. Romlin, which deals with encounters with death, “Hädanfärd” is an infernal, bleak monolith of an album, one that will most likely see NIGHT CROWNED step out as one of Sweden’s best kept blackened death metal secrets.

Vocalist K. Romlin states: “What we made is not just an album, it is a story. A story that has no beginning, nor end. A story that is as old as time itself. This is a story about life given & life taken, this is the tale when I meet death.“

But enough of words, listen and be amazed by the epic track “Nattkrönt”, streaming here:

“Hädanfärd” is out now via Noble Demon and available for purchase HERE

Limited merch bundles with the cover art shirt in various sizes together with either the new digipak of “Hädanfärd” or black vinyl, orange or ghost silver marble color, are available HERE

Tracklist:

  1. Nattkrönt
  2. Rex Tenebrae
  3. Fjättrad
  4. Ett Gravfäst Öde
  5. Hädanfärd
  6. Gudars Skymning
  7. Människans Förfall
  8. Grått & Ödelagt
  9. Enslingen

A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH Release New Single ‘Shards Of Glass’

A PALE HORSE NAMED DEATH, the doom metal band led by founding Type O Negative and Life of Agony  member Sal Abruscato, have released a new song, ‘Shards Of Glass’. It’s the second single taken from the upcoming album ‘Infernum In Terra’, out September 24th, 2021 via Long Branch Records / SPV.

You can stream ‘Shards Of Glass’ and pre-order ‘Infernum In Terra’ here:  https://smarturl.it/infernuminterra

Sal Abruscato about the new single:“This song refers to the mental and emotional abuse that happens in a family setting. Tip toeing around a family member that causes only emotional damage to you and your family, what ever they touch they destroy, what ever they say about your character is a lie and no one trusts what you are saying is true. You get this feeling that the broken glass you walk on is what lies in their wake of destruction.”

‘Infernum In Terra’ is the fourth studioalbum by A Pale Horse Named Death and was mastered by Maor Appelbaum (Faith No More, Meat Loaf, Yes, Sepultura, Halford etc.) at Maor Appelbaum Mastering (California,USA) while the artwork was done by Kelvin Doran of Serpent Tusk Studios (Dublin, Ireland). 

“The album to me represents a new beginning, turning a new leaf shall we say with the same vibe from past albums but with a fresh open minded approach,” says Abruscato. He adds: “There is no real concrete specific concept, it touches on some personal topics in my life long, my interest in the dark arts, that to have light you must have darkness to balance everything. With daylight comes nightfall, with heaven there is hell and at this moment the world seems to be in a very dark place hence the title of the album ‘Infernum In Terra’. This is a very dark album, but what else is new I always write dark music to sooth a dark soul!”

Sal Abruscato was born in Brooklyn, NY, and started playing drums at the age of 10. He is the co-founder of Type O Negative with Peter Steele and performed on Slow, Deep & Hard, Origin Of The Feces, Bloody Kisses and various best of and soundtracks. Sal was the drummer for Life Of Agony and performed on River Runs Red, Ugly, River Runs Again, Broken Valley and A Place Where There’s No More Pain. Additional projects include Supermassiv & My Mortality. He is now the singer, songwriter and guitarist for A Pale Horse Named Death.

Tracklist ‘Infernum In Terra’:

  1. Infernum
  2. Believe In Something (You Are Lost)
  3. Cast Out From The Sky
  4. Shards Of Glass
  5. Lucifer’s Sun
  6. It Is Done
  7. Two Headed Snake (Propofol Dreams)
  8. Slave To The Master
  9. Devil’s Deed
  10. Reflections Of The Dead
  11. Souls In The Abyss

‘Infernum In Terra’ will be out on September 24, 2021 through Long Brand Records, the album pre-sale is available at THIS LOCATION!
