French dystopian metal band Gravity have unveiled their new single / video ‘Décombres’, featuring guest vocals from Cage Fight vocalist Rachel Aspe. The band have also released their new EP Rupture – Momentum II.
‘Décombres’ is a powerful and heavy track imbued with melancholy. The two singers blend their clear and distorted voices around emotional harmonies and brutal screams. The French lyrics add a touch of poetry, making the violence of the song even more devastating.
New EP Rupture – Momentum II unveils a dark and dystopian metal that alternates between melancholy and violence. The “Clair-obscur” atmosphere is driven by vocalist Emilie Nox‘s powerful vocals and enhanced by four guest appearances, one per track:
This next chapter continues the story begun in Momentum, telling the fall of the fictional city of the same name — a dark factory-city, a metallic Metropolis inspired by a post-industrial world.
Emilie Nox has also become known for her work with ‘organ metal’ band Plague of Angels.
Hailing from the south of France, Gravity shapes an ever-evolving dystopian metal — raw, melodic, and intensely emotional. The band is fronted by the powerful and unique voice of Emilie, supported by Alex on guitar, Tim on bass, and Richy on drums. Together, they craft an aural world marked by contrast, dramatic tension, and post-apocalyptic atmospheres. The vocals, always in French, are central to the band’s identity, shifting seamlessly between clean singing and visceral screams.
Rooted in the ancient Cimbrian heritage of Italy’s Altopiano dei Sette Comuni, Balt Hüttar return with “Tanzerloch”, their most powerful and metal-driven chapter yet.
Active since 2011 and winners of multiple national & international contests, the band carries a unique mission: reviving the history, language, and traditions of the almost-forgotten Cimbri. BALT HÜTTAR‘s new album “Tanzerloch” is a concept record that delves into the myths, memories, and scars of the Altopiano. Across 11 tracks sung in Italian, English, and Cimbrian, the band fuses the storytelling of folk traditions with the intensity of metal, creating a visceral and immersive soundscape. Produced by Christian Zecchin and released by Rockshots Records, “Tanzerloch” marks a new creative peak for the band.
For fans of Korpiklaani, Eluveitie, and Folkstone, BALT HÜTTAR deliver not just music, but a mission: to give voice to a forgotten culture and to use ancient stories to speak to today’s world.
SMASH INTO PIECES have released a new single and lyric video ‘Devil in my Head’.
The band shared: “It’s finally here. Our brand new single “Devil in my Head” is out now on all platforms. This one hits hard — chaos, rebellion, madness… everything swirling in your head when it feels like you’re losing grip. If you’ve ever battled with yourself, this one’s for you. Now available on all streaming platforms. Add it to your playlist, crank it up, and let us know how it hits you. Crank it loud. Let it all out.”
Germany’s metalcore force AVRALIZE are entering a new era with their sophomore album liminal, set for release on 14th november 2025 via Arising Empire. Following the breakout success of their debut FREAKS, which earned over 5.5 million spotify streams, the band has already unveiled ‘upside down,’ ‘helium,’ ‘wanderlust,’ ‘close to you.’ and ‘medicine.’
Now they return with the crushing new single ‘bite my tongue.’ Watch the visualiser below.
About the track, the band shares: “‘bite my tongue’ is a song that embodies the tension we all carry inside – that battle between what we feel and what we’re able to say out loud. it’s about the weight of holding back, the pressure that builds up when you bury emotions, and the way it can twist you up until you finally explode. the riffs, the grooves, the heaviness – it all mirrors the choking on your own words and the relief that comes when you finally let it all out. for us, ‘bite my tongue’ isn’t just another single – it’s a statement. It’s us showing another side of avralize: groovier, sharper, but also deeply human. If you’ve ever felt like you were drowning in the things you couldn’t say, this one is for you.”
With liminal on the horizon, AVRALIZE are proving once again why they are one of Germany’s most exciting heavy acts — unafraid to evolve, unafraid to hit harder, and ready to define the next chapter of modern metalcore.

‘Chasing The High’ is From Fall To Spring‘s most emotional and powerful track to date. The single showcases the full range of the band’s songwriting: from atmospheric depth to explosive energy. Driven by a haunting topline, cinematic tension and a chorus that instantly sticks, the song balances vulnerability and power in a way only this band can.
Just two weeks before the release of their new album Entry Wounds, ‘Chasing The High’ sets the emotional tone. It marks the moment of impact, triggering everything that follows. A deep inner wound, a loss that can’t be undone, a feeling that something is broken and might never return.
Despite the weight of its message, the song is accessible and full of reach. The melodies hit hard and stay. The production is massive, but never overwhelming. It’s a modern heavy anthem that still sounds unmistakably like From Fall To Spring – intense, dynamic, and honest.
With this single, the band once again prove their ability to combine heavy music with emotional clarity and real songwriting instincts.
From Fall to Spring states: “‘Chasing the High’ is our emotional crash in song form. It explores the addiction to something that’s breaking you — but you still can’t let it go. Escaping a toxic spiral is hard… whether it’s love or your own mind. And sometimes, all that’s left is a scar to remind you it was real.”
