METAL MUSTANG BRINGS HIGH-VELOCITY DETROIT METAL TO THE FORE WITH DEBUT LP "AND THEY'RE OFF" - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE





METAL MUSTANG BRINGS HIGH-VELOCITY DETROIT METAL TO THE FORE WITH DEBUT LP "AND THEY'RE OFF"


Detroit, Michigan | Metalcore, Thrash & Progressive Metal | Debut Album Out Now

Straight out of the depths of Detroit, Michigan, Metal Mustang delivers a powerful collision of melodic metalcore, progressive metal, and thrash with their debut eight-track LP, "And They're Off," released August 6, 2025. Combining dark atmospheres, explosive guitar work, aggressive vocals, and intricate melodic arrangements, the band brings a sound built on intensity, technical musicianship, and deeply personal songwriting.

Formed in 2020 by co-writers Christopher Nigel and Julia Mogylevski-Castillo, Metal Mustang has developed a distinctive approach that balances crushing heaviness with hypnotic rhythms, dramatic key and tempo changes, and extensive guitar work. Drawing comparisons to Trivium, In Flames, and Five Finger Death Punch, the band combines the aggression of modern metal with the melodic sensibilities and progressive elements that give its music a character of its own.

At the heart of "And They're Off" is more than just heavy music. The album explores personal loss, displacement, survival, alienation, and the determination to keep pushing forward when life delivers its hardest blows.

Tracks such as "A Candle in the Dark" confront the devastating loss of a young family member, while "Laker Of Tears" addresses the human consequences of war, occupation, and displacement, drawing attention to conflicts in places such as Gaza and Ukraine. "Bulletproof" tackles the daily grind of life's hardships, the pressures of work, and the determination to keep standing after taking hit after hit.

Other songs, including "Stepping Stones" and "A Flash In the Pan," explore perseverance and maintaining a positive outlook despite the struggles of everyday life. Meanwhile, "Six Feet Down" dives into the darker territory of loneliness, isolation, and feeling disconnected from the world around you.

The band describes the album as:

"Total high velocity dark metal muscle music straight out of the depth of Detroit."

That description captures the spirit of the record: aggressive, emotionally charged, and driven by experiences that translate into something both personal and powerful.

Metal Mustang's music is already finding its way onto the airwaves, with tracks receiving radio play from WHFR, Tattoo Metal, and Outlaw Radio. The band has also been building its live presence throughout Michigan and beyond, appearing at venues including Diesel Concert Lounge, The Blind Pig, The Token Lounge, New Dodge Lounge, and The Music Factory.

Their festival appearances include the 25th Annual Centurian Biker Festival in Ohio, along with performances at Shenanigans and Century Music Hall in Indiana. Metal Mustang has also shared stages with a diverse roster of national touring and established acts, including Mingo Indus, The Dead Deads, Sun Valley, Starkill, Kikin Valentina, Bad Marriage, Killer's Confession, Saving Vice, Failsafe, Oblivion Zero, and The Convalescence.

The band's current lineup features:




Christopher Nigel: Lyrics & Lead Vocals





Julia Mogylevski-Castillo: Lead & Rhythm Guitar





Darrin Balagna: Bass





Alex Hicks: Harsh & Background Vocals





Ron Rollin: Drums





" And They're Off" was recorded, mixed, and mastered at Raydon Studios in Keego Harbor, Michigan, by Mark Stewart.

With a sound that moves between melodic intensity, progressive arrangements, thrash-driven aggression, and dark emotional storytelling, Metal Mustang is carving out its own place in the modern American metal scene. For listeners looking for music with both muscle and substance, this Detroit outfit is worth keeping on the radar.

"And They're Off" is available now on major digital streaming platforms.

PATHOS & LOGOS UNLEASH FOURTH FULL-LENGTH ALBUM "VERSES" NOVEMBER 27, 2026 - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PATHOS & LOGOS UNLEASH FOURTH FULL-LENGTH ALBUM "VERSES" NOVEMBER 27, 2026


Colorado Metal Duo Combines Blistering Thrash, Massive Melodic Choruses, and Punishing Polyrhythmic Brutality on Their Most Unforgiving Release Yet

Colorado, USA – Colorado-based metal duo Pathos & Logos are preparing to unleash their fourth full-length album, Verses, arriving November 27, 2026, through Digital Empire Media. Continuing a dark and uncompromising creative trajectory established through previous releases Glory to the Order, Cult, and Gospel, the new album represents the band's most aggressive and ambitious evolution to date.

For years, Pathos & Logos have cultivated a distinctive sonic identity from the underground metal scene in Colorado, constructing an enormous, multi-layered wall of sound that consistently defies the limitations of a two-piece lineup. Drawing from the technical ferocity of The Black Dahlia Murder, the crushing rhythmic complexity of Meshuggah, and the hardcore-infused intensity of Vision of Disorder, the duo delivers a volatile combination of blistering thrash metal, infectious melodic hooks, and devastating polyrhythmic breakdowns.

On Verses, the band pushes its sound into even darker territory, balancing colossal, anthemic choruses with moments of calculated technical violence. The result is a record built around contrast, shifting between memorable melodic passages and crushing instrumental assaults without sacrificing the intensity that defines the band's sound.

Expanding their creative circle for the new album, Pathos & Logos have enlisted an impressive lineup of guest collaborators, including Devin of Suicide Cages, Erik of Oak Ash & Thorn, and Rhiannon of Torn From Existence. Their contributions add further depth and dimension to an already formidable musical statement.

Leading the charge is the single "Crown of Glass," accompanied by a striking black-and-white music video that captures the oppressive atmosphere and intensity of the track. Featuring the duo performing in stark silhouettes against a massive floor-to-ceiling screen, the visual presentation incorporates venomous lyrical imagery that splatters and bleeds across the backdrop. The result is an atmospheric, high-contrast production that reinforces the song's dark themes while putting the band's commanding performance front and center.

"The new video represents a lethal evolution. It is a calculated sonic and visual assault designed to crush and convert, and it succeeds at both."

Verses was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Kyle Neeley, whose production credits include The Black Dahlia Murder, The Human Abstract, and God Forbid. His involvement brings a powerful production pedigree to the band's latest chapter.

With four full-length releases behind them and a sound that continues to evolve beyond conventional expectations, Pathos & Logos are ready to make their next statement. Verses is a collision of technical precision, unrelenting aggression, and commanding melody, proving that a two-piece lineup can deliver the kind of devastation typically associated with a much larger force.

The order is set. The next transmission arrives November 27.

BABY ON A RAMPAGE Share Second Single “Failure of One’s Name” Ahead of Upcoming EP - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BABY ON A RAMPAGE Unveil “Failure of One’s Name” Video Ahead of Forgive My Figure EP


Bay Area progressive metal band BABY ON A RAMPAGE have released the video for “Failure of One’s Name,” the second single from their upcoming EP, Forgive My Figure, due November 12, 2026.

Co-produced with Scott Proctor, whose credits include Five Finger Death Punch, Machine Head, and Testament, Forgive My Figure marks a new step in the band’s sound, bringing together crushing heaviness, soaring melodies, and emotionally charged choruses.

“Failure of One’s Name” explores identity, grief, self-discovery, and healing through the personal perspectives of guitarist and vocalist Ash Lee and drummer Lyra Renninger. The track shifts between restless, technical instrumentation and melodic passages, building one of the EP’s most emotionally resonant moments.

The single follows “Reclaim,” released September 1, 2026. Its video was also released alongside the track.

BABY ON A RAMPAGE’s members first came together between the ages of nine and eleven at Bandworks, a local music school known for rotating student lineups. When Ash, Lyra, John, and Bruno landed in the same group, their instructors noticed an unusually strong chemistry and level of skill for musicians so young.

The band’s influences range from Metallica, Green Day, and Primus to Mastodon, Gojira, System of a Down, Rage Against the Machine, Tool, Slipknot, Pantera, and Lamb of God, alongside Muse and King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.

Forgive My Figure is out November 12, 2026.

“Failure of One’s Name” is out now.

HELLDRIFTER, FLIGHT OF ODIN, KÜNTSQUÄD and LIZZORD Featured in Germany’s Legacy Magazine! - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Four Metal Devastation PR Clients Featured in Germany’s Legacy Magazine

HELLDRIFTER, FLIGHT OF ODIN, KÜNTSQUÄD and LIZZORD join an issue featuring Children of Bodom on the cover, plus major features on Silvertomb, Arckanum, Heilung, Sinister and more

Metal Devastation PR is pleased to announce that four of its clients—HELLDRIFTER, FLIGHT OF ODIN, KÜNTSQUÄD and LIZZORD—are featured in this month’s issue of Germany’s Legacy magazine. The issue features Children of Bodom on the cover and includes major features on Silvertomb, Arckanum, Heilung, Sinister and more. Metal Devastation PR’s clients add four distinct perspectives on heavy music through interviews, a band profile and album coverage.

HELLDRIFTER look toward their next album in a conversation about the lessons and working methods that have developed since Shell Of Inexistence. The Stuttgart five-piece tell Legacy they are currently working on more than 20 songs, taking an increasingly detailed approach to songwriting while continuing to put guitars at the center of their Old-School Melodic Death Metal sound. Vocalist Billy Kolins also discusses lyrics inspired by recurring events and concerns in the wider world, alongside plans to revisit the horror-film influence behind the band’s name. The feature touches on the group’s Kreator cover of “Murder Fantasies,” which they approached in their own style.

[jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="BAuld4f6phM"]

FLIGHT OF ODIN receive both an interview and a review for I Traveled The Crooked Path. The interview traces the personal, mythic and musical influences behind the American band’s double album, from singer and lyricist Xyra’s stream-of-consciousness writing to the group’s collaborative, self-produced approach. The release brings together the current lineup’s material with remastered tracks from the earlier Goddess In Smoke MCD. In its review, Legacy praises the album’s atmospheric combination of melancholic Doom Metal, Progressive Rock and psychedelic soundscapes, highlighting Xyra’s expressive vocals, the eerie piano passages in “The Ravens’ Eyes” and the standout guitar solo in “You Can’t Stop Me Now.” The album receives 11 points.

[jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="1gVdWn2ohck"]

Australian grind outfit KÜNTSQUÄD discuss their evolving live sound, touring and the challenge of writing a third album. Guitarist Paula VC Damnzal describes the band’s effort to push their extreme sound further while retaining the distinct character that sets them apart. The feature also looks back at Satans Cock, the band’s recent live activity and their appearance on the Imperative Music Agency Vol. 21 DVD with “Psychotropic Lyfe.” KÜNTSQUÄD also share plans to bring their music to Europe and Japan for the first time next year.

[jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="xeeiwOvpmr4"]

LIZZORD are profiled in “Selfmade Speed,” a feature that follows the band’s DIY approach from songwriting and recording through to artwork. The German four-piece’s debut album, Cosmic Crypt, draws on ’80s and ’90s Speed and Thrash Metal, pairing high-velocity riffs with a two-part vocal approach. Legacy highlights the group’s hands-on production, including real drums recorded and refined in drummer Marcel Weber’s own studio, and the band’s commitment to making the music, lyrics and artwork feel like a unified work. Cosmic Crypt is scheduled for release on November 20.

[jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="xSsWHLi5qcs"]

Together, the features showcase four different paths through heavy music: HELLDRIFTER’s guitar-forward melodic death metal, FLIGHT OF ODIN’s expansive and melancholic sound, KÜNTSQUÄD’s uncompromising grind and LIZZORD’s self-made speed and thrash.

CLOAK Announce New Album Above, Below, & Through for February 2027 Through Metal Blade Records - @thebeast

Atlanta black metal outfit CLOAK are preparing to enter a new chapter with the announcement of their upcoming full-length album, Above, Below, & Through, scheduled for release on February 12, 2027, through Metal Blade Records. The record marks the band's debut release for the legendary label and their fourth full-length album overall.

Alongside the announcement, CLOAK have unleashed the first single and accompanying music video, "Nigredo - Initium," offering listeners an initial glimpse into the darker, more expansive direction of the new material. Pre-orders for Above, Below, & Through are now available.

Formed in Atlanta, Georgia, in 2013, CLOAK have steadily developed a sound rooted in black metal while incorporating a broader range of influences and atmospheric elements. Their new album represents a significant step forward for the band, both musically and conceptually.

The band describes the record as a continuation and expansion of their previous album, Black Flame Eternal.

"Above, Below, & Through takes everything that was great about our last LP, Black Flame Eternal, and amplifies it completely, while still standing as an album of its own," the band explains.

The album was shaped during a period of change, reflection, and creative inspiration. Its conceptual foundation explores themes of liminality and duality, examining the spaces between opposing forces and states of existence.

According to founding vocalist and guitarist Scott Taysom, the songs gradually developed around ideas involving life and death, dreams and consciousness, humanity and animal instinct, and the relationship between shadow and light.

"The main concepts of the songs were dealing with pathways between life and death, realms between dream and consciousness, shifts between beast and man, and the juxtaposition of shadow and light as spiritual guides," Taysom explains.

He continues, "The album title's meaning became clear, as something both all-encompassing and complete, but also something liminal and transitional. This is represented in both the songs and the band itself at the time of writing the album."

The new record also introduces a refreshed lineup. Founding members Scott Taysom and guitarist Max Brigham are joined by drummer Matt Morris and bassist Rafay Nabeel. The expanded lineup has helped shape what the band describes as its most massive and sonically expansive recording to date.

The production takes a different approach from previous CLOAK releases, emphasizing enormous, natural-sounding drums, rumbling bass, and guitar tones packed with attack and clarity.

Lead single "Nigredo - Initium" holds particular significance as the first song the band began developing with its new lineup. The track also serves as the opening gateway into the album's conceptual world.

"A tale of being marked from the beginning. 'Nigredo - Initium' was the first song we started working on as a new lineup, which is very fitting considering the translated title. It is the initial door that opens to the world that is Above, Below, & Through, and the start of a new dark age," the band states.

Above, Below, & Through was recorded with producer Alex Parra and drum engineer John Douglass. The album features striking cover artwork by Jordan Barlow.

With a new lineup, a new label home, and an ambitious conceptual direction, CLOAK appear ready to push their sound into darker and more expansive territory.

LIZZORD UNLEASHES OLD-SCHOOL THRASH FURY WITH DEBUT ALBUM COSMIC CRYPT - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LIZZORD UNLEASHES OLD-SCHOOL THRASH FURY WITH DEBUT ALBUM COSMIC CRYPT


German Melodic Thrash Metal Outfit Combines Classic Speed, Cutting Riffs and Strong Melodic Songwriting Across Explosive Debut


Album Release Date: November 20, 2026
Upcoming Single: "Bring Out The Dead" – November 6, 2026
Genre: Melodic Thrash Metal

There is still plenty of life left in the riff, and German melodic thrash metal outfit LIZZORD are coming to prove it.

Drawing influence from the uncompromising aggression of Slayer, the razor-sharp precision of Kreator, and the formative speed and songwriting of early 1980s Metallica, LIZZORD have built their sound around the essential ingredients of classic thrash while adding a strong melodic edge of their own.

The band will unleash their debut full-length album, Cosmic Crypt, on November 20, 2026, delivering a collection of songs driven by sharp guitar riffs, pounding rhythms, memorable melodies and varied songwriting. Rather than simply chasing speed for speed's sake, LIZZORD place equal importance on musical variety, dynamics and songs that stick with the listener after the final riff fades.

“We bring a debut album that combines the energy of classic thrash metal with a strong sense of melody,” the band explains. “Cosmic Crypt is packed with sharp riffs, driving rhythms and varied songwriting. Cosmic Crypt is aimed at old-school thrash fans who value musical variety alongside heaviness and speed.”

The road toward Cosmic Crypt is already underway, with LIZZORD steadily unveiling the album through a series of singles.

The campaign kicked off with "Hellzone," released September 3, 2026, introducing listeners to the band's high-energy approach and unmistakable old-school thrash influences.

The second single, "Harvest Doom," followed on October 10, continuing the buildup toward the full-length release and giving fans another taste of the album's aggressive riffs and melodic songwriting.

Now, LIZZORD are preparing to unleash their third single, "Bring Out The Dead," arriving November 6, 2026. The track will serve as the final preview ahead of the November 20 release of Cosmic Crypt, giving listeners one more reason to crank up the volume before the complete album arrives.

At the center of the project is a commitment to the classic metal values that helped define the genre in the first place: powerful riffs, memorable songs, aggressive performances and a willingness to let the guitars do the talking.

The album was produced, mixed and mastered by drummer Marcel Weber at INFERNAL AUDIO studio, giving Cosmic Crypt a production that allows the band's speed, precision and melodic elements to hit with full force.

LIZZORD are a self-managed outfit, with bassist Florian Thome handling the band's management and external contact. The group is currently focused on building its presence through smaller venues throughout Germany and working toward a club tour.

The band already have several live dates confirmed, including:

February 27, 2027
Into The Pit
Hof, Germany

July 3, 2027
THRASHAMANIA
Prüm, Germany

December 11, 2027
Metal Concert
Oberhausen, Germany

With Cosmic Crypt, LIZZORD aren't trying to reinvent thrash metal. They're taking the ingredients that made the genre great in the first place and putting their own melodic stamp on them.

For listeners who still believe that a great metal song starts with a killer riff, a driving rhythm section and enough attitude to rattle the walls, LIZZORD are ready to open the Cosmic Crypt on November 20.

WAYNE STATIC AND TERA WRAY UNAUTHORIZED DOCUMENTARY SET FOR JANUARY 9 PREMIERE IN LOS ANGELES - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

WAYNE STATIC AND TERA WRAY UNAUTHORIZED DOCUMENTARY SET FOR JANUARY 9 PREMIERE IN LOS ANGELES


Filmmaker Matt Zane moves forward with the controversial documentary amid ongoing legal proceedings, public scrutiny, and reported threats.

LOS ANGELES, CA — Filmmaker Matt Zane has announced that his unauthorized documentary chronicling the lives of late STATIC-X frontman Wayne Static and his wife, Tera Wray, will premiere January 9, 2027, in Los Angeles, California.

The premiere comes amid an ongoing legal dispute between Zane and STATIC-X. On August 20, 2026, STATIC-X and associated parties filed a lawsuit against Zane seeking damages exceeding $1 million. The complaint includes allegations involving copyright infringement and other claims, which remain part of an ongoing legal dispute.

Zane maintains that his documentary is an important personal project honoring Wayne and Tera, whose lives and relationship he says he was asked to document. The filmmaker also says he has faced significant online backlash and threatening messages surrounding his decision to continue with the project.

Despite the controversy, Zane remains committed to bringing the story to audiences.

"It has been an incredibly difficult journey getting to this point, but regardless of everything I'm going through, I wasn't going to let Wayne and Tera down. Their story deserves to be told, and it's what they wanted," said Zane.

The private premiere event will take place in Los Angeles, featuring a post-screening Q&A with the director and select members of the film's cast. Press representatives and fans interested in attending are welcome to request access, although seating will be limited.

Those interested in attending the premiere can email WayneTeraRSVP@gmail.com for RSVP information.

Following the Los Angeles premiere, the documentary is expected to be made available online for free, giving audiences around the world an opportunity to watch the film.

The January 9 premiere marks an important milestone for Zane and the documentary, as the filmmaker moves forward with a project he believes will offer a personal perspective on the lives, relationship, and legacy of Wayne Static and Tera Wray.
