STALWART

Death/Thrash/Groove/Prog Metal powerhouse Stalwart presents the visualizer video for their devastating track, “Through the Dead Eyes,” a monumental commentary on modern spiritual decay. Stripping away all platitudes, the song plunges listeners into a world of profound disillusionment, where existence is a “way through desert,” and hope has decayed. Driven by crushing riffs and a complex rhythmic core, the track explores the futility of human endeavor, echoing the pain of suppressed anguish and the numbing effect of routine.

About Tempvs Edax Rervm

Stalwart’s Tempvs Edax Rervm delves into the inexorable power of time, exploring themes of fading identity and inevitable decay as “heaven and earth have switched places.” The album distills the band’s essence—groove-driven riffs, intricate rhythms, and atmospheric layers—into a heavier, darker, and more focused continuation of their intense, precise metal sound.

About Stalwart

Formed in 1999 in Saint Petersburg, Russia, Stalwart has built a reputation in the extreme metal scene with a distinctive blend of death, thrash, groove, and progressive metal — combining crushing riffs, intricate rhythms, and atmospheric layers. Over their career, they’ve released six full-length albums through labels including Fono, Soyuz/MetalAgen, CD-Maximum, Metallism, and PRC Music, with four albums produced by the renowned Wiesławski brothers (Vader, Decapitated, Behemoth) at Hertz Studio, Poland. Stalwart has shared stages with Behemoth, Kataklysm, Vader, Amon Amarth, Primal Fear, Finntroll, and Carnifex, performing across Russia, Ukraine, Finland, Estonia, and Germany.

After a hiatus starting in 2019, the band returns with their seventh album, Tempvs Edax Rervm, out early 2026 via WormHoleDeath Records, promising crushing grooves, complex rhythms, relentless blast beats, and immersive atmospheres — a new chapter in Stalwart’s evolution.

Death/thrash/groove/prog metal force Stalwart have officially signed with WormholeDeath Records for the release of their seventh full-length album, Tempvs Edax Rervm, due out 23 January 2026.

The band shared their excitement regarding this new partnership:

“It’s hard to believe in this day and age, but good news still happens sometimes — well, at least for us. We’re thrilled to announce that Stalwart has officially signed with WormHoleDeath Records for the release of our new album, Tempvs Edax Rervm, coming in early 2026.
After a long break and years spent living across different parts of the world, this record marks a new chapter for us — one that connects everything we’ve built over the past two decades with the drive and perspective we have today”.

About the Album: Tempvs Edax Rervm

Tempvs Edax Rervm (“Time, the Devourer of All Things”) reflects on how everything fades with time: vices die with their hosts, people hide behind new masks as they decay within, and even the old gods have grown powerless to change what’s coming. Heaven and earth have switched places — and the end might already be near.

Musically, the album brings together the elements that have always defined Stalwart: sharp, groove-driven riffs, intricate rhythms, atmospheric layers, and a balance between intensity and precision. Shaped by distance and experience, it’s not a restart — it’s a continuation, distilled into something heavier, darker, and more focused than ever before.
