MOTHER OF ALL are set to release their debut album, ‘Age of Solipsist‘ – featuring legendary Steve Di Giorgio (Testament, ex-Death, Sadus) – on April 23rd via Black Lion Records. Now the band has released the first single “Autumn” from the album. The single was premiered via No Clean Signing (HERE).

Watch the lyric video here:

Black Lion Records issued:
“It is a well-crafted melodic death metal anthem. The song is about the inescapable decay of our bodies and minds as we turn older. Cathartic, with a pinch of tragedy Mother Of All’s singer and drummer Martin Haumann (ex-Myrkur, Afsky) is joined by world renowned bassist Steve Di Giorgio (Death, Testamant, Sadus), who gives a stunning performance. The song also features solos by the rising Danish talent Frederik Jensen on guitar. Black Lion Records will release Danish one-man band Mother of All’s debut album Age Of The Solipsist on April 23rd, 2021. Pre-order available now!
Mother Of All performs a mixture of melodic and progressive death metal and is the brainchild of drummer and vocalist Martin Haumann, an in-demand and highly-prolific musician that has previously performed across the world as the drummer for Myrkur, Afsky and many others. Most recently, Haumann played the drums on Afsky’s highly-acclaimed opus ”Ofte Jeg Drømmer Mig Død…”, hailed by many as 2020’s black metal album of the year. Artwork for Age Of The Solipsist has been created by American graphic artist, Travis Smith, whose impressive work has graced the covers of bands like Opeth, Nevermore, Avenged Sevenfold and King Diamond. Age Of The Solipsist is mixed by Hannes Grossmann (ex-Necrophagist, ex-Obscura, Alkaloid) at Mordor Sounds.”

MEMORIAM Release Third Album Trailer

Onwards into battle, one more time… In the two years since MEMORIAM released Requiem For Mankind, the band haven’t rested on their laurels. Their fourth studio album, To The End is due for release on March 26 via Reaper Entertainment.

The band has released the third album trailer for this upcoming record. Let Frank Healy explain you more about the songwriting of the new album:

The second digital single “Failure to Comply” will be released on February 26th, 2021. You can pre-save the single on Spotify now: https://smarturl.it/FailureToComply

Album Trailer #2: https://youtu.be/aQ4liX6mrio

You can pre-order “To The End” here: www.reapermusic.de/memoriam-end

Marking the beginning of a second trilogy of albums, To The End serves as something of a prologue to the first three MEMORIAM albums. Working backwards and narrating the life story of the leader whose demise was depicted in the first trilogy, the lyrics on the album may play out in a fictional realm, but they incorporate inspiration from real life. A central theme of war is coloured with political fulminations and everyday experiences that combine to create a cohesive and enthralling chronicle.

The four-piece returned to producer, Russ Russell, for the recording of To The End. For the first time, the band demoed the songs and entered the studio with a new level of preparedness. Coupled with their close relationship with Russell, this created an environment that allowed for greater experimentation, as demonstrated by the diverse array of textures and sounds present on the nine tracks on the album. 

>From the earliest days of the band, they had their eye on the art Dan Seagrave (Benediction, Dismember, Hypocrisy, Suffocation etc) as an accompaniment to their music. Having created the artwork for the first three MEMORIAM albums, he has also created the cover for To The End.

BUDDERSIDE Unveil New Single/Video “Wide Awake”

Los Angeles-based quintet BUDDERSIDE conjure high-energy alt-rock anthems which bridge the gap between the sexy swagger of the Sunset Strip and the soulful depths of Seattle on their forthcoming sophomore release SPIRITUAL VIOLENCE out March 26 via Motörhead Music/Silver Lining Music. The band have unveiled a third single from the album with the striking track “Wide Awake” out today, February 19, available across all digital platforms now. The music video for “Wide Awake” was filmed at the abandoned Old L.A. Zoo in Griffith Park and shares an important story correlated to the single and album’s concept art.

“Every song always has a symbol, a visual story, ‘Spiritual Violence’ lays down ten tarot cards, each representing a song. The story of ‘Wide Awake’ is one of manifesting your dreams, after a journey through Hell to reach them. The Hand Of Fatima is featured on the artwork for ‘Wide Awake’ and is the perfect reflection of this lesson. In the video, the band all pick cards from evil’s deck which reflect pieces of a puzzle that when all are in place reveal a greater destiny they share together.”, Explains vocalist/founding member Patrick Stone

Getting to the abandoned location to film was a journey in itself as drummer Jeff Dewbray recalls.

“I got to take my drums on a f*ckin’ hike through an abandoned zoo. And that’s just the beginning of the madness in these videos! ‘Wide Awake’ has always been one of my favorite songs in the live set and every damn time I count it in, I know hysteria is bound to break out. I’m forever grateful for everyone involved and couldn’t be more excited to show you all this video!”

SPIRITUAL VIOLENCE was recorded with legendary producer Jay Baumgardner (Bush, Godsmack, Papa Roach) and mastered by Grammy Award-winning engineer Howie Weinberg (Nirvana, The Smashing Pumpkins, Garbage). Its 10 tracks careen through STONE’s journey of overcoming addiction, loss and heartbreak to discovering resurrection with patience, perseverance and meditation set over soaring melodies and catchy refrains. BUDDERSIDE previously shared two singles: “Zen”–via MXDWN which American Songwriter applauded for “hav(ing) effortlessly aligned jazz, funk and pop influences with their rock persona that lends to interesting chord progressions and key changes”–and “Pardon Me (featuring Phil Campbell of Motörhead)”–whose animated music video depicted the story behind how the band was introduced and signed to Motörhead Music by its late founder, Motörhead vocalist Lemmy Kilmister. Watch the videos for “Zen” and “Pardon Me” here.

Spiritual Violence Track Listing:

1. Wide Awake
2. Zen
3. Amber Alert (feat. Carla Harvey)
4. Pardon Me (feat. Phil Campbell)
5. I’m A Man
6. Folsom Prison Blues
7. Things We Do (feat. MUSYCA)
8. Feels So Good
9. Soul Searches
10. Daygobah

BUDDERSIDE has previously been seen on tours alongside Motörhead, Slayer, Anthrax and L.A. Guns as well as being featured on international festivals including Wacken Open Air, Motörboat, Malmö Festival and the Monsters Of Rock cruise. They most recently shared their infectious live performance with audiences in December via a special livestream performance at the iconic Sunset Strip venue Whisky-a-Go-Go which was aired across their socials as well as the equally famed Rainbow Bar & Grill’s networks in honor of Lemmy’s birthday which included a guest appearance and post-show Q&A panel from former MTV VJ and music personality Matt Pinfield.

FROZEN CROWN Reveal New Line-Up

Power metal sensation FROZEN CROWN have revealed the band’s new line-up, which will see its debut with the release of the much anticipated third album ‘Winterbane’, opening a brand new chapter in their fast-rising career.

This is how the band commented: “You heard them playing in our new album video sneak peek; now they finally have a face! It’s been so hard to find suitable members to replace the missing pieces of the Crown – especially during these hard, hard times. These guys put their heart and soul in the new album, providing with some technical and dynamic drums, some tight and aggressive bass lines and, of course, some flashy and awesome guitar solos. Hope you’ll love these three new fellas like you loved us, so far, as they really gave their absolute best, definitely making ‘Winterbane’ a close-knit team effort.
We’re very happy to introduce you to Fabiola “Sheena” Bellomo on lead guitar, Francesco Zof on bass and young prodigy Niso Tomasini on drums. ‘Winterbane’ will be out in April, but you’ll be very soon able to listen to some new tunes off it!”

‘Winterbane’ will be released on April 23, 2021 on Scarlet Records and Marquee/Avalon (Japan).
