Polish black metal project HEGEROTH presents first track from upcoming studio album "Disintegration"Stylistically, their music can be compared to the achievements of such bands like Dark Funeral, Immortal and Emperor.. Hegeroth is a studio project playing black metal. Open to non-genre influences, diversity and multilayeredness. All while maintaining energy, speed and 100% metal in metal. Hegeroth was formed in 2010 in Poland and already preparing to release its fifth studio album entitled "Disintegration". The new release contains dark and unobvious melodies, and the diversity and multi-layeredness is reinforced by the disintegration of the title, announcing the imminent collapse of the ideological machine that imposes only the right model of thinking.
LESKENTUSKA - Finnish black metal band with punk rock vibepresents second EP "Nälkäkurki".
LESKENTUSKA is a Finnish metal band formed in 2018 that has so far released two self-produced EPs and played a couple of dozen shows, mainly in Northern Finland.
The band's music combines black metal, punk rock and strong choruses inspired by the long tradition of Finnish melodic metal. In their live performances, the band focuses on energy, potent song material and a sense of danger typical of live music, without needless technical gimmicks. The four-piece band's authenticity and tight ensemble playing have been praised by their audiences.
Leskentuska draws on stories from the darkest pages of Finnish history, crime, madness and misery. Uniquely, much of the band's music is based on scientific research to be published in the near future. In the future, the band plans to use its deep knowledge of history and audiovisual skills to produce music videos and other accompanying material for the enjoyment of listeners.
The "Nälkäkurki" EP, their latest record contains three wild, authentic and raw black metal songs that draw their energy from the darkest yet true stories of Finnish history.
The EP opens with "Den Onda Andan", a dark, melodic song based on real murder trials from three hundred years ago, in which the perpetrators claimed to have been seduced by the evil spirit. The second song, "Minun murhani", is a tribute to all those for whom life on earth became too heavy, and whose bodies the church, in its piety, sank into the swamp or buried in the woods to humiliate them.
"Nälkäkurki" concludes this 15-minute journey. "Nälkäkurki" reminds us of our old enemy, the frost that has filled the cemeteries of this land, together with its companions, hunger and pestilence. Music was recorded, mixed and mastered by Janne Huotari at Space Studios (Lordi, Burning Point). Cover artwork was done by Jomi Kyllönen.
EP was released digitally on November 25th, 2022 and is available on all popular streaming platforms (Spotify, Deezer, Bandcamp).
Opensight - Mondo Fiction The Director’s CutA White Knuckle Metal Thrill Ride
OPENSIGHT – MONDO FICTION: THE DIRECTOR’S CUT
LABEL: INDEPENDENT RELEASE RELEASE DATE: AUGUST 25th 2023
In a darkened room, safe from the world, in a place where life makes sense to me. Hidden from their barbed comments and disparaging gaze I lose myself in murder, mystery and monsters. I ride the badlands with a gun at my side and her eyes follow me as I walk across the crowded floor. I drive like a madman through the city streets, adrenaline rushing through my veins and wait in the shadows for my victim to appear. I live life and take life, I dance and I love with a passion I could never express in their reality. I die beautiful deaths with the perfect final words; a hero, an enigma, a devil, a saviour, a man with no name. All I could ever want, could ever dream of, is in here with me and I never want to leave…
Opening with the dramatic fanfare of ‘In Here With Us’, metal innovators Opensight’s last album, Mondo Fiction, resplendent in its Sollo Macello (Ennio Morricone, Ghost, High On Fire) artwork , is a glorious love letter to the silver screen; in particular the imagination, the thrills, the grand guignol of genre cinema and grindhouse films. Each song on this fantastic, fantastical release takes listeners on a journey through the worlds of vintage crime, classic westerns, horror and mystery from the cinematic vault.

“...a fantastical, fictional film score...” Canadian Thrashers TRISKELYON New Music Video "At War With Demons" ft. Cara McCutchen (Mortillery, Naitaka)New Album "Artificial Insanity" Out Sept 2023 (Moribund Records)
Canada’s new power thrash metal gods Triskelyon will be unleashing their sophomore album “Artificial Insanity” (mixed and mastered by Michael Small (Winterhearth, Triskelyon, Artach)) on September 8th via Moribund Records. Led by guitarist and band founder Geoff Waye, Triskelyon’s second full-length“Artificial Insanity” has guests from the crème de le crème of the Canadian metal scene. Enlisting the vocal talents of guests Amanda Jackman (Category VI), Armin Kamal (Infrared), Cara McCutchen (Mortillery, Naitaka), Dale Drew (Sea Dogs), Des Mason, Ellim, Pete Healey, Raúl Álvarez (Dark Order-Aus.) and Tim Tymo (Tymo) culminate in a varied album, which delivers both pure thrash metal classics, hints of blackened melodic thrash, and enough power metal to bring one back to the 1980s. Drum duties are shared between Raul Marques (Burning Torment) and Alexander Raykov (Antreib), while Dwayne Pike, Keith Jackman (Category VI), and Darrin Pope are conscripted on bass.
With “Artificial Insanity”, Triskelyon returns to follow up their radio chart-topping debut album “Downfall” (2022) with a varied yet blistering thrash/power metal classic, bringing back the 1980’s glory days, while maintaining a fresh and modern sound.
Today, Triskelyon is revealing their next music video for the single "At War With Demons" featuring vocals from Cara McCutchen (Mortillery, Naitaka), which can be viewed at https://youtu.be/m5H8OAJdpV0
Spotify - https://sptfy.com/OQ4x
Guitarist Geoff Waye adds: "The title "At War With Demons" was fashioned as a nod to the legendary "At War With Satan" by the mighty Venom. However, that's precisely where the similarity ends. This track stands as one of the heavier offerings on the album, a direct and succinct thrasher that strikes at the heart with its intent. Its lyrics are fundamentally centered around the theme of war. On vocals for this one is the remarkable Cara McCutchen, whose vocal prowess I had become acquainted with through her contributions to Mortillery. Presently, she fronts the Canadian ensemble Naitaka. Her vocal range is remarkably versatile, spanning from piercing screams to unrelenting brutality. Undoubtedly, her band is fortunate to have her as their vocalist." Triskelyon's “Artificial Insanity” is recommended for fans of Megadeth, Forbidden, Agent Steel, Exodus, Slayer, Testament, and Overkill Due out on September 8, 2023, the album pre-order is available from Moribund Records at the following link: http://www.moribundcult.com/ Previous Singles: "Visionaries" - https://youtu.be/ZzU9gpdCOHk "TekTyranny" ft. guest vocals from Infrared's Armin Kamal - https://youtu.be/hgT8CDAHJYA Facebook | YouTube | Bandcamp

Beyond The Past
It Doesnt Really Matter
Rockshots Records - TakaLaiton Shares "Do or Die" Drum Playthrough + New Album "Mindfection" Out Now!"Fast, heavy, and angry track of virtue signaling people who are ready to sell their principles just to be known as a good person even though they are just as bad as the next one," adds Juntunen.
Hailing from Finland's far north, TakaLaiton garners a powerful melodic groove thrash-influenced attitude that is best seen in their super-energetic live shows that have always left fans with a sore neck and bruises from the moshpit. With a risk-taking thrash-fueled demeanor, TakaLaiton superbly blends fast-paced energy, and a bone-crushing groove, with melodies that can only be inspired by the dark, depressing, and frigid far-north. Not to mention the band's lyrical onslaught, sung in both Finnish and English. Since their inception, the band has covered a lot of territories while on tour, bringing their rowdy stage presence to the Scandinavian regions, the rest of Europe, and Asian continents.
TakaLaiton has a "break the rules, exceed all limits" approach, as their name suggests; deriving from a Finnish baseball term for "swing the ball over the borders''. With that fierce frame of mind, the band has won "Heavy Metal Heart 11" a National Music Contest in Finland; and is ready to follow up their 2019 double EP "SisuKastraatio I & II" with 2023's "Mindfection", their first full-length that is based on today's society, where we as people do everything to be a part of it and what's sickening to the band is that people are ready to do anything in the name of couple minutes of fame. This album is based on this sick way our world has come to be.
"We are absolutely psyched about the album release and the fact it's coming through Rockshots Records! We spent literally everything we had when it came to effort on this album and the final result turned out to be magnificent with the producer Teemu Aalto. We think this will be the album that the TakaLaiton fans will consider a classic in the future. The well-known crushing sound and the rage are in there with the heartwarming melodies, which TakaLaiton fans are familiar with." comments the band.

Polish black metal band DOMINANCE released debut album "Slaughter of Human Offerings in the New Age of Pan"
Stylistically, their music can be compared to the achievements of such bands like Marduk, (early era) Destroyer 666, Tsjuder and Impaled Nazarene.
DOMINANCE was created by Impaler (bass/vocals), Witchfucker (drums) and Hellcult (guitar) in 2019 out of the ashes of the established RAPED CHRIST and the lesser known MÖRTALIST. After four years marked with local gigs and the self-produced „Sodomize with Steel” demo tape, the monstrous „Slaughter of Human Offerings in the New Age of Pan” debut album was unleashed by Polish label PUTRID CULT and the holocaust continues.
Music for this release was recorded in late May/early June 2023 in Santa Studio (Warsaw, PL) by Haldor Grunberg (Behemoth, Dopelord, Witchmaster) who also did mix & master at Satanic Audio. Album was released August 25, 2023 on digital format and physical CD (webstore). Cover art & layout was done by Witchfucker.
Commentary about album: "By way of shamanic interfusion, „Slaughter of Human Offerings in the New Age of Pan” opens the gate to a Jungian dimension in the Howardian landscape of the demo tape. Short and to the point, as it represents not strife but the final and well-prepared act of titular abolishment of outer obstacles in the path to inner harmony."
