Blackened Death metallers STORTREGN have re-signed with Non Serviam Records, their new anticipated album “Emptiness Fills the Void” will come out on May 25th! Furthermore STORTREGN kicked off yesterday their tour with IMMOLATION.
Commented Non Serviam Records: Two years ago Non Serviam Records made a pact with Swiss blackened death force STORTREGN to release their third full length «Singularity». The pact is being renewed as we proudly announce to release their anticipated fourth album « Emptiness Fills the Void » on May 25. The album marks a new zenith point in their discography, as it’s the most personal, inventive and extreme music written by the band to date. Revered artist Dan Seagrave executed the artwork, and the album was recorded at the prestigious Conatus Studios with Vladimir Cochet. Their supporting tour with Immolation & Full of Hell will take place in this month.
Check out the playthrough video for “Lawless” here.

VADER, released their crushing new album “The Empire” on November 4th via Nuclear Blast, and once again proved that their merciless riffs are made to unleash hell. Without doubt, “The Empire” falls under the category of VADER’s classic albums. The impressive monument that they have built with their 13th studio album immediately found its place in metal history and proves that VADER don’t need to make their peace with the world; they never did, and they certainly don’t now with “The Empire” – especially after writing more than 30 years’ worth of Death Metal history.
“The Empire” was recorded at Hertz Studios in Bialystok, Poland and produced by Wojtek and Slawek Wiesawski. The stunning cover artwork was created by Joe Petagno (Led Zeppelin, Motörhead, Sodom).
“The Empire” tracklisting:
“Angels Of Steel”
“Tempest”
“Prayer To The God Of War” (album version)
“Iron Reign”
“No Gravity”
“Genocidius”
“The Army-Geddon”
“Feel My Pain”
“Parabellum” (album version)
“Send Me Back To Hell”
