Brazil’s heavy metal powerhouse As The Palaces Burn keep the momentum roaring with the release of their brand-new video Defying the Power , taken from their latest full-length ZODIAC , now out worldwide. The band has been on a steady rise since 2018, and this new chapter hits harder than anything they’ve done before.

ZODIAC marks the band’s most dynamic and fully realized work to date, blending crushing riffs, sharp musicianship, and the melodic instincts that have defined their sound since the beginning. What started with End’evour in 2019 and carried through All The Evil , Offer To The Gods , Into Emotions , and Drowning Into Shadows has now evolved into a record bursting with confidence and identity.

The new single Defying the Power pushes that message even further.
A soundtrack for anyone grinding forward in a world that keeps trying to shove them back.

The band explains it simply:
“More than just lyrics, Defying the Power is a call to those who refuse to live imprisoned. It is music for those who want to reinvent themselves, break barriers, and believe that nothing can stop their own will.”

With its soaring choruses, tight grooves, and razor-sharp precision, the track stands out as one of the album’s most empowering moments.

For fans of: Gojira, Trivium, Lamb of God, Parkway Drive, Jinjer, Killswitch Engage

To top things off, As The Palaces Burn are teaming up with a major rock radio station from their hometown to host a special festival celebrating the release of ZODIAC, setting the stage for one hell of a night for metal fans across Brazil.

Tentaclaus Storms Back with a Double EP Drop Calamari and Daily Grind! - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tentaclaus Storms Back with a Double EP Drop Calamari and Daily Grind!

Northern Virginia’s punk troublemakers Tentaclaus have kicked the door back open after a hiatus, and they’re not easing back into anything. They’re dropping two back to back EPs Calamari and Daily Grind serving up grit attitude and the kind of raw edge that reminds everyone why the scene missed them.

Tentaclaus is a Diet Superband made up of players from Never Elected, Shumaun, Positivity Brigade and the Berkley School of Music. Sujit Kumar handles vocals, Scott Silver drives the drums, Jason Nope commands the bass and Tyler Kim dishes out the guitar fire. What started as one album spun into two EPs after some lively boardroom debates. In their words it made more sense and it was a hell of a lot more fun.

Calamari landed on November 7. It kicks off with Rat Child a nod to the Di’Anno and Clive Burr era of Iron Maiden. The EP tears through Backstabber, the football feud fueled Man U, the heavy leaning NIB.RIP. and wraps with Golden Sneakers. True to form they shout out their go to Alexandria haunt O’Shaughnessy’s keeping their community stitched right into the music.

Calamari Tracklist
Rat Child
Backstabber
Man U
NIB.RIP.
Golden Sneakers

Daily Grind arrives December 5 and digs into the everyday chaos of modern urban life. Destination sets the tone inspired by Mumbai’s shoulder to shoulder trains. Shit Rollin and Get Fucked dive straight into work culture burnout and the nonsense that comes with it. Celebrate flips the switch on fake office cheer. The closer Come To The Show fires up a rally for supporting live music hitting O’Shaughnessy’s with another well deserved salute.

Both EPs feature artwork by Aaron Miller of Miller Digital Art. Recording, mixing and mastering were handled by Pablo Cabrera at Analog Approach in Falls Church with vocals tracked by Farhad Zink Hossain at Zinkferd Studio in Woodbridge.

Independent and loud as ever Tentaclaus keeps fueling the DC and Northern Virginia punk circuit. With Calamari and Daily Grind they’re planting their flag right back in the center of the scene and daring anyone to ignore it.

Punk fans better buckle in. Tentaclaus is back and they’re not playing nice.

Metal Devastation Radio and PR Hit 22.9 Million Views and Lock In Another Google Search Trophy - @thebeast

Metal Devastation Radio and PR Hit 22.9 Million Views and Lock In Another Google Search Trophy

November 2025 came in swinging, and the underground answered right back. Metal Devastation Radio and Metal Devastation PR closed out the month with a tidal wave of growth, stacking up another round of numbers that prove this machine just keeps getting louder.

This time, Google handed over yet another shiny Search Trophy after logging 275,000 web impressions for the month. No shortcuts, no corporate fluff, just the raw push of an underground community that refuses to sit quietly.

Another Month, Another Mountain Moved

The November stats tell the story loud and clear:

• 172,000 active users digging into the underground
• 164,000 new users jumping into the fray
• 266,000 total views rocking the site
• 986,000 tracked events showing clicks, streams, chaos and curiosity

And with that surge, the all-time total view count now sits at a monstrous 22,923,773 . That’s not noise. That’s a legacy forming in real time.

Straight From the Frontlines

“It blows my mind seeing the total hit nearly 23 million,” says Zach Moonshine.
“Month after month we keep pulling in more metalheads, pushing new bands, and keeping this thing alive. These Google trophies aren’t just little digital pats on the back. They’re proof that the underground still scares the algorithm in all the right ways.”

Fueled by the Underground

This milestone hits across the whole spectrum of the scene:

Bands and Labels – Feeding the fire with new music that actually matters
Zines and Media – Continuing the grind that keeps metal documented and remembered
Fans Worldwide – Sharing, streaming, spreading the truth louder than any marketing budget
DJs and Staff – Running the 24/7 backbone of Metal Devastation Radio
Tennessee Metal Devastation Music Fest – Bringing the noise from online to the dirt and the stage

Every piece matters. Every click is another spark in a growing wildfire.

What’s Next

Sitting at nearly 23 million views, the mission stays the same. Keep lifting up the bands that aren’t getting a fair shake, keep pushing heavy music into the spotlight, and keep championing the spirit that built the metal underground in the first place.

“If you’ve got something heavy and real,” Moonshine adds,
“this is the spot. We’ve got a global reach, a real audience, and a scene that shows up. Metal Devastation isn’t just PR. It’s a damn movement.”

Thank You

This milestone belongs to everyone who streamed, clicked, supported, submitted, blasted, and believed. The underground doesn’t weaken. It evolves. It multiplies. And it gets louder every single month.

About Metal Devastation Radio and PR

Founded in 2013, Metal Devastation Radio and Metal Devastation PR stand as global pillars for underground and independent metal. With nonstop radio, powerful PR campaigns, and a widely read online zine, they continue pushing the boundaries of DIY heavy music across the world.

JON HARRIS SERVES UP A FUNK-ROCK FEAST WITH NEW “MUSTARD N KETCHUP” PLAYTHROUGH - @thebeast

JON HARRIS SERVES UP A FUNK-ROCK FEAST WITH NEW “MUSTARD N KETCHUP” PLAYTHROUGH

Canadian instrumental rocker Jon Harris is back in the spotlight, and he isn’t coming quietly. The Edmonton guitarist, producer, multi-instrumentalist, and yes, actual chef, just dropped a brand new playthrough video for his track Mustard N Ketchup, one of the most talked-about cuts from his album Parallel Heart. If you need a reason to get up and move today, this is it.

This new video puts Harris front and center in his natural habitat, showing off the kind of tight, flashy musicianship that makes gearheads lean in and casual listeners start bobbing their heads before they even realize it. Mustard N Ketchup blends rock energy with funk swagger and a dance pulse that feels straight out of the eighties, only rebuilt with modern muscle. It’s a reminder that instrumental music can hit just as hard as any traditional rock anthem.

Harris pulled back the curtain on the inspiration behind the track and dropped some heavy names while he was at it.
“I get asked about this song more than any other on the record, probably because it stands out in a lot of ways. Mustard N Ketchup is my homage to one of my all time favourite producers, Quincy Jones, and the magic he created with Michael Jackson and legendary Toto guitarist Steve Lukather. I’ve always loved the sound of the eighties, and I’ve always loved dance music. To me, it’s the heartbeat of rock, as music should make you move.”

And in true Jon Harris fashion, the title itself also ties back to his second creative life in the kitchen.
“The title is also a nod to my life as a chef, where everything starts with the basic building blocks of flavour. Whether it’s food or music, great things come from a solid foundation.”

You can watch the new Mustard N Ketchup playthrough here:

Parallel Heart, released in December 2024 through Epictronic, is packed with the kind of storytelling most bands need a vocalist to achieve. Harris does it with feel, texture, and arrangements that shift from slick grooves to soaring solos. Even without a single lyric, the record digs into themes of connection, conflict, ambition, and the balancing act between the creative world and real life. Tracks like Togetherness pulse with momentum, while 97BPM plays like a neon soaked time capsule.

Harris handled guitar, drums, bass, piano, and production, making this album a full display of what the guy can do when he’s behind the wheel. His sound blends blues roots, cinematic synth layers, funk rhythms, and a modern rock edge that brings to mind everything from Jeff Beck to Prince. It’s a fresh take that still respects where the genre came from.

Harris has earned praise from critics across the board, with Exclaim!, Real Gone Rocks, Video Sound Art Magazine, and others championing his mix of technical skill and emotional depth. It’s clear that Parallel Heart isn’t just another instrumental record, it’s a statement from an artist who refuses to pick one lane when he can build a whole highway.

If Mustard N Ketchup is any indication of what Harris is cooking next, fans are going to want to stay hungry.

KILLERWITCH, ST. UNHOLYNESS, POWERHOUSE, THORNDALE, WITCHER And TRAITOR Charge Into Legacy Magazine Alongside 1914 - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

KILLERWITCH, ST. UNHOLYNESS, POWERHOUSE, THORNDALE, WITCHER And TRAITOR Charge Into Legacy Magazine Alongside 1914

Metal Devastation PR is celebrating a serious milestone as six of its artists land features and reviews in the newest issue of Legacy Magazine, the same issue with 1914 dominating the cover. For independent and underground metal, this is the kind of spotlight that proves the scene is still pushing forward with power, grit, and no interest in playing it safe.

KILLERWITCH
Malta’s heavy and power metal thunder squad hit Legacy with their second album Palace Of The Dragons and walked away with a perfect ten point score. The magazine called it a thunderclap packed with huge melodies and a smokey atmosphere that shows the band finally taking off. Silent Angel and Metellica were singled out as prime examples of the band’s fire. Their interview digs deeper into the darker and more direct direction of the new material, with the seven minute epic The Alchemist standing tall. KILLERWITCH is now gearing up for a European tour in 2024.

ST. UNHOLYNESS
Christina Earlymorn’s one woman force of nature slammed Legacy with a twelve point review for her debut full length Through High Holy Haze. The album blends Doom, Stoner, Black Metal venom, HM 2 fury, and raw Blues soul into a hybrid that impressed Legacy for its detail and fearless execution. The interview explores Christina’s journey from Metallica inspired beginnings to the creation of a sound that is grim, groovy, personal, and fully her own. Every instrument. Every idea. Every scream. All hers.

POWERHOUSE
Sacramento thrash unit Powerhouse delivered American Rebel and Legacy responded with eleven points. Six tracks. Thirty three minutes. No wasted space. The review praises the massive riffs, pounding drums, and a psychedelic edge that gives their old school thrash roots a modern twist. Their interview opens up about the pandemic frustrations that shaped the record and the idea of standing strong with a lone wolf mentality. Influences like Iron Maiden, UFO, and Slayer help shape a sound that still feels fresh.

THORNDALE
Legacy sat down with Thorndale for a feature on their new album Spiritual Chains. With a refreshed lineup, the band shifted from the technical density of their older work to stronger melodies, simpler structures, and riffs built to last. The title track Twenty Thousand Souls anchors the theme of mental and spiritual chains. The band keeps a democratic approach to songwriting and is already working on the next album titled The Stalemate. Their sound honors the old ways while keeping an eye on the future.

WITCHER
Hungary’s melancholic black metal duo returned with their fourth album Lélekharang. Legacy describes the sound as bombastic, melodic, and rooted in classic black metal while painting the atmosphere with symphonic influence. Themes of sorrow and descent into a deeper world guide the music. The duo keeps everything DIY from instrumentation to vocals to production. Hungarian lyrics reinforce the atmosphere and carry the emotional weight of the concept.

TRAITOR
Rounding out the wins, TRAITOR was covered in Legacy’s feature celebrating twenty years of the Neuborn Open Air Festival in Wörrstadt. The festival has grown from a small gathering into a trusted stage for major underground talent. Legacy highlights the longtime relationship between TRAITOR and the festival, noting the band’s reliability, quality gear, and fierce performances. Their style pulls from speed, blackened aggression, and the classic black death sound of the nineties. TRAITOR stands out as a relentless and traditional force that always delivers.

A Strong Statement For The Underground
Landing multiple artists in a respected publication like Legacy is more than a bragging right. It shows the underground is stacked with talent, individuality, and the kind of dedication that keeps metal alive across borders and generations. Metal Devastation PR is proud to support bands that work hard, stay authentic, and refuse to water down their vision.

Santiago, Chile – December 3, 2025 – Chilean thrash metal warriors NECKBREAKER are ready to tear down the walls with their highly anticipated debut album, Mental Void , dropping December 12 through the legendary German label Witches Brew .
