Florida’s new death/thrash band INHUMAN CONDITION have released their new single, “Euphoriphobia” along with a music video, which can be viewed HERE, via Decibel Magazine.
The band, consisting of Terry Butler (OBITUARY, ex-MASSACRE/DEATH/SIX FEET UNDER) on bass, Jeramie Kling (VENOM INC, THE ABSENCE, ex-MASSACRE) on vocals and drums, and Taylor Nordberg (THE ABSENCE, ex-MASSACRE) on guitar, will release their debut album entitled “Rat°God” on June 4th on Kling/Nordberg’s own Listenable Insanity Records. The trio has also signed licensing deals with Black Serpent Records (Germany/Europe), Spiritual Beast (Japan), Metalized Distro (Mexico), Rapture Records (Brazil), and Burdentombs (Malaysia).
Kling said “Euphoriphobia is a collection of thoughts that are channeled into one bullet. This bullet is then loaded into a chamber of a large weapon. That large weapon is then aimed and ready. What comes next is up to you”
The video for “Euphoriphobia” was filmed by Deidra Kling and cut by Jeramie Kling, and features footage from INHUMAN CONDITION’s recent show with DEICIDE at the Verona in New Port Richey, Florida on April 17th.
Swedish Grindcore unit SICKRECY, the brand new project featuring members of Birdflesh, General Surgery, World in Ruins and Damned to Downfall, have unleashed the title track taken from their upcoming debut EP, “First World Anxiety”! Extreme, fast and chaotic, SICKRECY masterfully conveys the old school spirit of the genre into their sound, injected with shots of Crust Punk, D-beat and Death Metal, so you know what to expect in terms of sheer anger, brute force, blasting speed and pounding frenzy.
Watch the lyric video for “First World Anxiety” here:
“Sickrecy was formed out of the sheer lust and passion for rawness and speed. That combined with lyrics that really say something and mean something, rather than just the usual gore, evil goat and hail satan. Our debut single ‘First World Anxiety’ includes all of the elements that are the solid foundation Sickrecy is based upon. The blasting beats, the d beat/crustpunk, the death metal riffs, and awareness in lyrics. It feels so great to have Spikerot records as our label and partner in grind.” Bassist and drummer Martin Eriksson states.
SICKRECY‘s debut EP will be coming out on June 4th via Spikerot Records as a digital-only release, available on all major digital platforms and on Bandcamp for “Name Your Price”.
“First World Anxiety” is available for pre-order at THIS LOCATION
Tracklist: 1. Man’s The Leech 2. First World Anxiety 3. I Am Paty 4. Banner Of Contempt 5. Liberty 6. Last In Line
HUNDRED HEADLESS HORSEMEN have released the third and last single ‘No Longer Human’ from their upcoming debut full length concept album titled ‘Apokalepsia’. This is the final teaser for the Apokalepsia.
Hundred Headless Horsemen is a psychedelic death metal band hailing from Helsinki, Finland. No Longer Human is the third single from their first full length, a concept album titled Apokalepsia that will be released on 21 May 2021. The band blends together different subgenres from the past and present to create a unique brand of psychedelic death metal. Their musical approach mirrors the narrative of the album, that moves in multiple time and space dimensions based on fragments of articles about a formerly unknown psychoneurological condition.
“What to do when you do not recognize yourself anymore? You fear that others will note what is happening to you. You do everything in your power to hide it from their eyes. But the transformation is oblivious to your will, fears, needs. You already bear its marks for everyone to see.”
No Longer Human was recorded at Sir Näs Studios in Helsinki, Finland and mastered by Magnus Lindberg Productions in Stockholm, Sweden.

MEGADETH bassist David Ellefson has launched his brand new on-demand video podcast called Backstage with David Ellefson on the Star Worldwide Network.
The video podcast will feature both audio and four camera video production and each episode will be available on-demand. Hosted by Ellefson himself, his first episodes include Frank Bello (Anthrax/Altitudes & Attitude), Joey Vera (Armored Saint/Mercyful Fate) and Ellefson’s former Rust In Peace bass tech turned author-chiropractor Dr. Randall Kertz D.C., who’s book The Bassist’s Guide to Injury Management, Prevention and Better Health has become an industry go-to for medical remedies for musicians.
The video podcast was created with legendary Phoenix, AZ morning radio show host Dave “The Mayor” Pratt. Says Ellefson, “Dave (Pratt) and I have known each other for over three decades as he and I have done many on-air interviews at KUPD over the years. He really is the mayor of all things radio here in Phoenix, Arizona so I am honored to have a media home here with him.”
Says Dave Pratt, “As a long-time rock radio personality, I proudly have shared many successful years with my friend David Ellefson. It is appropriate that he founded Ellefson Coffee Co. as the metal icon is pure energy as a musician and an entrepreneur on many levels. Now, you get a backstage pass into David’s inner circle through a worldwide pro video podcast. Welcome to Backstage with David Ellefson on Star Worldwide Networks!”
Ellefson adds, “I’m aiming to have this podcast serve as a platform for fun and engaging conversations between friends and colleagues on a myriad of topics, both in and out of music. Nothing is off limits and I’m excited to see where our guests and topics will take the conversation.”
Formed in 2008 as the brainchild of guitarist & composer Frederick Thunder and with two critically acclaimed albums under their belt, NEONFLY have carved a dynamic and distinctive career, touring as main support for some of rock’s biggest names, including Alice Cooper, Dragonforce, Anvil, Gamma Ray & Magnum and storming festival main stages worldwide. Their highly anticipated third album “The Future, Tonight”, featuring 10 heavy-yet-catchy modern rock anthems, allied with hard-hitting riffs, big-metal grooves and decidedly socially conscious lyrics, drops June 18th on Noble Demon.
Today, coming in the wake of the release of the album’s epic title track (listen HERE), the four-piece unleash a lyric video for new single “Beating Hearts”. The track demonstrates the musical variety of the new album with a gospel-tinged, rock orientated anthem & hook laden chorus. It’s “a song about not being afraid of being yourself, and not having to justify yourself for being different” as guitarist Frederick Thunder states. “It’s a song about following your heart and accepting your choices, regardless of what certain religious groups, social conventions or other people might dictate. It’s a song about passion, that celebrates alternative culture in all its manifestations: music, art, lifestyle, community… and it’s a song about overcoming any personal doubts you might have, and finding harmony within yourself.”

For the stunning album artwork of “The Future, Tonight”, Neonfly collaborated with renowned Korean artist NOMA (Noh Gyeong Hwan), whose artistic vision is perfectly in tune with the band’s. The video for “Beating Hearts” gives an intimate insight into the world of NOMA, showing him painting the portraits of each band member in his own distinctive style.
The album artwork, as well as the portraits of the band members, form part of NOMA’s “21st Century Mona Lisa” collection, who explains the idea behind it in the following statement:
“We are one of the many organisms that coexist in this modern era. However, we are potentially just one of the many 21st century’s expandable products that may disappear at any time. We live in a rapidly changing digital era, locked within an ever-repeating media reality that turns on and off under their direction. It is like being a lifeless pixel on a TV screen, essentially becoming one of the many tools that are used to shape and create the future. We always hide our feelings and goals from some unknown enemy who could appear at any time. Our crooked desires, greed, and the accompanying cries of injustice are hidden behind the veil of a warm and happy face, expressing itself only in a way of our choosing. But even when our hidden emotions are exposed, we choose to suppress and deny them, choosing instead to lock them up in a snare of reality. It is as if we were a machine, calculating the right words to say and expressions to reveal, never acknowledging or expressing our true feelings. Unlike how the warm smile of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa from the 15th century reflects suppression, I choose to freely express our repressed and restrained desires. That might just be the self-portrait of the 21st century that we are living in.”
Neonfly‘s new album “The Future, Tonight” will be out on June 18th via Noble Demon and is now available for pre-order or to pre-save to the library of your preferred streaming service HERE
