Finnish Melodic Doom act, KAUNIS KUOLEMATON, unleashed their brand new album via Noble Demon. Not afraid to cross musical borders to expand Doom Metal’s stereotypes, “Syttyköön Toinen Aurinko” is the heavy yet intense dreamlike journey of top notch metal melancholy their fans have been waiting for. 9 tracks of melodic darkness, apocalyptic and destructive, melodies as uplifting as they are depressive – In support of their brand new and third studio album, the band from Hamina, Finland, shared a video clip for the track “Hyvästi”, streaming right here:

Says the band about the song:

“This is a song about eternal love and much deeper than its meaning used to be heard. When you have dedicated your life entirely for someone or something…and the day comes. The day when the darkest depths of life swallows it all away and there´s nothing you can do about. There´s only time for words to say goodbye… forever goodbyes.“

“Syttyköön Toinen Aurinko”, whose lyrics are entirely in Finnish, was recorded at DeepNoise Studios, Finland (Bloodred Hourglass, Wolfheart, Dawn Of Solace, To/Die/For), while the stunning, sophisticated cover artwork comes by Niko Anttila (Wolfheart, Sabaton).

“Syttyköön Toinen Aurinko” is out NOW on Noble Demon and available to purchase at THIS LOCATION

MACABRE Release Animated Video For ‘Joe Ball Was His Name’

Two weeks ago, Chicago legends of Murder Metal/Death Metal  MACABRE  released their demented, heinous bloodbath of an album, Carnival Of Killers via Nuclear Blast. Today, the band reveal the video for “Joe Ball Was His Name” which was created by Sweden’s Amanda Odenlid who previously made MACABRE MINSTELS (Macabre unplugged) videos for “The Cat Came Back,” “Found A Peanut,” “The Geins,” & “Tom Dooley”.

Watch the animated video for “Joe Ball Was His Name” here:

MACABRE’s Corporate Death comments, “Joe Ball was a serial killer called the Alligator Man. I started writing this song around our Grim Scary Tales era, but never actually finished it until getting things in place to record Carnival Of Killers. Reading more about him and his evil deeds from way back in the 1930’s I tried to give the song an old-time ragtime feel. I hope you like it, it’s a little different, but so are we.

Amanda Odenlid quote: “I made the Macabre Minstrels videos just for fun, back when my interest in true crime had really taken off full force (thanks to discovering Macabre, actually).
The “chibi”-style I used first saw the light of day when I started making a sort of tongue-in-cheek webcomic about Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer living together. I like the style because it is simple but expressive, and I also like the clash that occurs between the cartoony VS the grotesque and morbid. Having listened to Macabre for 10+ years has made me realize that, while morbid, there is also quite a lot of dark humor in their music as well. Kind of like my own art, in a way.
As for this new video about Joe Ball; making it basically forced me out of an art-block I’d been having, also making me rediscover how fun it was to draw in this old chibi-style of mine. I went from only having heard of Ball’s name somewhere, to almost knowing everything about him that there is to know (except his exact body-count). Despite the grim subject-matter, it was really fun to learn something new and to revisit my old passions for drawing and video-making!”

The video, produced by Morbid Vision, can be watched here:

Performed by: Cadaveria (vocals) Kris Laurent (guitar) Pier Gonella (guitar) Peter Dayton (bass) Marçelo Santos (drums). Recorded and mixed at MusicArt Studio and Rrooaarr Sound in September 2020.

CADAVER Release Lyric Video For “Let Me Burn”, Edder & Bile Out Now

Back with a vengeance and hell-bent on destruction, Norwegian death metallers, CADAVER, are back in business and ready to reign. Today, Edder & Bile, the first full length from this band’s new incarnation of Anders Odden’s original, extreme metal vision, is unleashed unto the world via Nuclear Blast Records. In celebration, the band offer fans the lyric video for “Let Me Burn”.

Anders Odden comments, “‘Let Me Burn’ came to me at night, after one of our intense studio days in January 2019. I just got the opening riff and it led me out on this path that became the song. It was raining in North Hollywood that night and the whole feel of doom and gloom was shining through. I had with me a recording of my fireplace in Norway and knew this would make an awesome ending to the album. The song is about how we all will end up as ashes no matter who we are and what we do. It’s a nihilistic theme that means even more to me now after facing death with my cancer battle. When I was close to dying this winter, I always thought of having this song played super loud at my funeral with all the people having to read the lyrics during the ceremony. As I am not quite dead yet. I use it to tell you I cheated death, for now. Let Me Burn. I have no fear!”

Watch the lyric video for “Let Me Burn” here:

Edder & Bile was produced by the band as well as Adair Daufembach who also handled the engineering. The album was recorded and mixed at Northwood Sound Studios in Hollywood, CA. The album features vocal cameos from death metal icons Kam Lee (MASSACRE) and Jeff Becerra (POSSESSED) ensuring that this crushing rebirth has underground credentials to spare. The photo for the artwork was taken by Hannah Verbeuren and the layout was created by Justin Bartlett.

HATEBREED Share New Song “Cling To Life”, New Album “Weight Of The False Self” Out Now

Connecticut hardcore metal titans HATEBREED have released their eighth studio album Weight of The False Self via Nuclear Blast today, November 27. The album is available for purchase at this location.  

The Grammy-nominated band just dropped the visualizer for the new track “Cling to Life”:

Weight of The False Self proves that over 20 years deep into an iconic career, Hatebreed remain vital.

Renowned for their ability to provide an intense and cathartic release for their fans, Hatebreed challenged themselves and their writing style in order to produce material that is exceptionally relatable in a contemporary world flooded with overstimulation, emotional dampening, and lack of social patience. “Weight of The False Self is a perfect representation of Hatebreed in 2020, a fresh onslaught of soon-to-be classics with all the elements that led you here since day one,” explains guitarist Frank Novinec.

Drummer Matt Byrne shares, “There’s no shortage of beefy riffs and adrenaline-fueled drums on this record. I’m proud to say that we will consistently provide a soundtrack to which you can mosh in your living room and destroy your apartment.”
