ELECTRIC GUITARS is more than ready for the reopening. “Dopamine” is the new single and video from Denmark’s most revered rock band. With it, the band sends a pure feeling of happiness to the concert-hungry fans. The single is the sound of cold draft beer, the hair back, and the guitar up to 11.

“We’re coming out with our fastest number ever because we’re SO ready for the scene to open again. We’re hungry like never before!” tells Mika Vandborg – one half of the guitar duo in front of Electric Guitars.

“Dopamine” is about the unbridled feeling of happiness that forces you out in search of the next fix. Whether it’s draft beer, speed, or rock music you can not let go, “Dopamine” ignites your urge for more.

“”Dopamine” is a solution-oriented song. Maybe it’s about a man who is addicted to sex…” laughs Mika Vandborg.

In this new track, advancing what’s to come in their future album, Electric Guitars’ double-charged guitar energy flows out of the speakers like a herd of trapped galloping horses on their first jump after a long winter. Bass and drums pump up the pulse so that it jerks the rock muscle.

“The song actually wrote itself. Søren and I sat and jammed to a beat we found on YouTube, and in no time the song was finished. Bang! So much energy we had built up. Right there we experienced that feeling of happiness that comes when everything just falls into place. And that’s the feeling the song is about”.

Søren Andersen – the other half of the guitar duo – elaborates: “We did what the song wanted – and we did not compromise. After nine years and four albums, we have never been closer to the core of our small orchestra. When others make barley themselves – burgers with honey, dipped strawberries and smart salad, we go for steak, bacon, cheese, and onions. That’s it!“

“Dopamine” is released today on all streaming services (listen here) and in an official video that can be seen in our media partners for its premiere.

Swedish black metal five-piece BURNING DARKNESS will release their sophomore full-length album, “Dödens Makt”, on July 2nd 2021 via Non Serviam Records.

Today the band unleashes the first single “Chiropteran Demon”. Its primitive intro evolves into a progressive verse that mutates into an aggressive chorus making it a fair representation of the new album.

STREAM/PURCHASE THE SONG HERE: smarturl.it/4vkm1n

“‘Chiropteran Demon’ was chosen as first single because of the raw old-school energy mixed with some more modern heaviness. We felt the somewhat unorthodox mix worked really well. There are also some horror elements to the music which goes together well with the titular demon the lyrics talks about“, comment BURNING DARKNESS.

“Dödens Makt” (The Power of Death) is a more varied and atmospheric recording than the raw and intense debut. The band mixes both fast tempos and very heavy parts along with classic melodic tremolos and progressive elements. The lyrical themes of death and anti-Christianity are kept from the previous album, but new ones such as horror and Norse folklore are now present as well. The cover artwork depicting a demonic bat-like gargoyle was created by Łukasz Jaszak.

“Fans of 90’s black metal will love it. We at Burning Darkness don’t concern ourselves with current trends. We play the type of music we love. Still not rigidly stuck in one spot, we musically take inspiration from other genres of metal and beyond. The new album has more variation than our debut. While it goes mostly quite fast, we’ve added slower and heavy as led parts as well. Rawness is balanced with atmosphere”, explains the frontman Per Kolderup Finstad

The album will be available as digipak CD and digital. Pre-orders are available HERE: Webshop – Bandcamp

The track listing reads as follows:
1. Muspelhems Vrede
2. Sulphurous Wrath
3. Chiropteran Demon
4. She Who Dwells Beyond The Branches
5. Neonaticide
6. Draugr
7. In The Shadow Of Webbed Wings
8. Dödens Makt Är Stor

Founded in late 1999, BURNING DARKNESS released several demos and played in their country, becoming a tenacious live act. They recorded the debut album “The Angel of Light” in 2014, which was released 3 years later, getting amazing reviews worldwide. Recently they finished their sophomore album “Dödens Makt” (The Power of Death) which will be released on July 2nd via Non Serviam Records.

Anonymous experimental metal collective NON SERVIAM have premiered their brand new video “I Watch You From Afar” via CVLT Nation, watch it HERE.

The multi-talented, genre hopping anonymous collective Non Serviam have teamed up with label Code666 to bring forth another masterful release, blurring lines between genres and going beyond the boundaries that restrain them. Non Serviam creates a sonic collage of experimental, black, doom, grindcore, crust and industrial metal while staying within the framework of a baroque influence that will assault the auditory senses in the form of one of the most brutal and extreme releases of the year.

“Le Coeur Bat” (The Heart Beats) is comprised of 8 tracks which delve into the the deepest pits of the universe and worse even still, the darkest corners of the mind!

This psychosis inspiring album is available on all major platforms digitally as well as digipack CD and yellow vinyl, since April 23rd.

Non Serviam adds: “It’s a chance for a project like Non Serviam to benefit from the expertise and scouting talents of Code666. It is indeed one of the rare labels that has offered in the last decades the possibility to get under the spell of some of the best Black Metal bands from around the world, that is to say for us the most experimental and consequent ones, among which some of our inspirations (Ephel Duath, Imperial Triumphant, Negură Bunget, Aborym, Amesoeurs, Vampillia). “Le Coeur Bat” is an album that has been delayed many times, and has suffered greatly from the current pandemic crisis, it must now be released, like all of us. Long live the devil who threatens this world of money, cops and viruses – The old world has to burn.”

In 2021 another album is out “Mystai Keltoy” produced and recorded by Michele Guaitoli singer of Temperance, Vision of Atlantis and Era. The style played is difficult to place in a single vein of metal, as there are many influences ranging from death to power, with sound elements that can also recall a certain type of 90’s thrash. The singing is quite varied, and for some listeners it may seem unusual in a metal band. power, speed and good melodic lines distinguish the band from others. Between 2010 and 2020 they released “Horns helmet fighters” and for the Slovak Music Globalliance they came out on international compilations on volumes 2,3,4.

OSIAH Release New Music Video ‘The Ominous Mind (Jaded Inside)’; Announce UK Tour Details

Undoubtably one of the UK’s most ferociously dark bands, OSIAH, have released a soul-stirring new music video for their album track ‘The Ominous Mind (Jaded Inside)’.

Taken from their album Loss, which was recently released on 7th May to worldwide critical acclaim via Unique Leader Records, you can now experience the video here:

Following on from singles ‘Temporal Punishment‘ and ‘The Eye of the Swarm (feat. Ben Duerr)‘, ‘The Ominous Mind (Jaded Inside)’ is another striking declaration of resolve from one of the hardest working bands on the circuit, showcasing their more sombre side whilst firmly establishing their prominence at the top of the new breed of deathcore hierarchy. 

Speaking of their newest video Osiah shared: “The Ominous Mind (Jaded Inside) is our third single, representing the more melodic and groove elements of Osiah, and also showcasing some of Ricky’s most pain fuelled lyrics that dominate this release.”

Vocalist Ricky Roper added: “It’s one of the most pained tracks on the record; recording it was an experience I’ll never forget. During the end section I was literally screaming my pain out, I don’t think I’ve ever been as low as I was at that point of recording, and the melodic section that guitarist Andy Mallaby provided really brought it out of me. I can still hear it when I listen back and it serves as a reminder of where I’ve clawed my way back from.”

Hailing from the extreme metal wastelands of Northern England, Osiah have continued to make a name for themselves and the British metal scene, transcending the deathcore label with their trademark hideous, grisly, torturous barrage of filth.

Pummelling breakdowns and acerbic deathly chops scream classic Osiah, whilst jarringly downtuned guitars, surprising tempo changes and preternatural vocals all bringing to the fore one of the UK’s heaviest sounds on record. It is this commendably mature approach that elevate Osiah to the realm of heavyweight, alongside genre-pushing greats Fit For An Autopsy and Enterprise Earth. Special guest features from Jason Evans (Ingested vocalist) and Ben Duerr (Shadow of Intent vocalist) only serve to highlight the band’s status further.

Having toured with Cattle Decapitation, The Faceless, and Distant, and cutting their teeth on the underground circuit, Osiah continue to make a name for themselves – fully matched with their home on Unique Leader Records, the world’s heaviest label.
