The Zach Moonshine Show Turns Black Friday Into a Full Scale Metal Riot - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The Zach Moonshine Show Turns Black Friday Into a Full Scale Metal Riot

Black Friday is usually a battlefield for cheap TVs and busted knuckles, but this year the real action wasn’t in any checkout line. It was blasting through Metal Devastation Radio. The night kicked off with the Battle of the Bands top six blowing the doors clean off. Farewell From The Gallows, ANTISAINT, Decrypter, Eden On Fire, Verses and Saturnine Sorrows hit the airwaves like they were looking for a rematch with the apocalypse. No breaks. No mercy. Just pure volume shaking loose whatever was left of the week.

And that was just the warm up.

Once the dust settled, The Zach Moonshine Show Black Friday Special rolled in and finished the job. No interviews. No guests. No handholding. Just me firing off brand new heavy tracks while the rest of the country tripped over themselves chasing bargains. This is how Black Friday was meant to sound. Loud, reckless and honest.

The real kicker? The crowd showed up in force. A wild 119,711 metal maniacs tuned in live, turning the broadcast into something closer to a digital stampede. That kind of support keeps the underground alive, kicking and refusing to apologize for a damn thing.

If you missed it, the replay’s up and waiting to rattle your walls. Grab a drink, crank the volume and get caught up. Black Friday might be over, but the chaos sure didn’t stop.

DAY 40 Unleash Thrash Metal Tribute to Black Sabbath with “Symptom of the Universe” OUT NOW - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DAY 40 Unleash Thrash Metal Tribute to Black Sabbath with “Symptom of the Universe”
OUT NOW

DAY 40 have unleashed their studio cover of the Black Sabbath classic “Symptom of the Universe,” delivering a blazing thrash metal twist on one of the genre’s most untouchable foundations. This one punches hard and fast, landing squarely in the sweet spot for fans of Death, Testament and The Haunted.

The idea for the cover was born this past summer, right after the metal world was shaken by the passing of Ozzy Osbourne. The band felt the loss like a gut punch and knew they had to honor the man who helped build the entire blueprint for heavy music. They chose “Symptom of the Universe,” stormed the stage at Total Metal Open Air and served up a version built around seven string guitars and a reworked arrangement. The crowd reaction was so intense it pushed the band to take it to the studio and capture the full power of their interpretation. And now it’s here for all to blast.

DAY 40 was founded by Den Dimitrov in 2003, already a respected name in the Eastern European underground thanks to his pioneering work in Brainstorm and the cult classic Pieces of Reality. Since 2012, bassist Stefan Minev has locked in beside him, shaping the band’s low end with precision and grit. Their strongest lineup yet is completed by drummer Hugo Terva, known for his time with Death Valley Knights and touring Europe with speed metal legends Savage Grace, along with guitarist Nikolay Atanasov, former Agent Steel member and current shredder for German thrash mainstays REZET.

The band’s cover of “Symptom of the Universe” stands as both a tribute and a statement. Sabbath lit the fuse decades ago. DAY 40 are here to show that flame still burns bright and heavy.

“Symptom of the Universe” is out now on all platforms. Crank it.

HEXJAKT PREMIERE FULL ALBUM STREAM FOR BLESSING OF THE DAMNED VIA DECIBEL MAGAZINE - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HEXJAKT PREMIERE FULL ALBUM STREAM FOR BLESSING OF THE DAMNED VIA DECIBEL MAGAZINE
Swedish Doom Trio Unleash Their Monumental Debut Full-Length

Metal Devastation PR is proud to announce that Swedish doom powerhouse Hexjakt has premiered their entire upcoming album Blessing of the Damned exclusively through Decibel Magazine . The feature showcases the band’s crushing, slow-burning brand of doom and marks a major milestone leading up to the album’s December 1 release.

Decibel set the tone perfectly in their premiere description, calling the record a dose of “dank, depressive doom” and praising the trio for delivering eight “bleak doomscapes of dread and darkness” that lumber forward with relentless weight. With every track clocking well past the five-minute mark, Blessing of the Damned offers a full immersion into Hexjakt’s world of ritual gloom and unyielding heaviness.

Recorded at Kingstreet Studio in August 2025 and mixed and mastered by Joona Hassinen at Studio Underjord , the album will be released on both vinyl and digital formats through Majestic Mountain Records , in collaboration with Burning Skull Records . Preorders for vinyl and digital editions are available now.

Hexjakt—featuring Hampus Henningsson (guitar/vocals), Toni Åkerman (bass/vocals), and Dan Nordin (drums)—describe their debut full-length as their most conceptually focused and emotionally intense work to date.

“With Blessing of the Damned we present a collection of the darkest and most conceptually charged songs we’ve created so far,” the band states. “The title itself captures the album’s core tension: the pull between damnation and redemption, light and darkness. These songs unfold across a landscape of crushing, slow-paced riffs, murky atmospheres, and lyrics that evoke ritual ecstasy, defiance, and resignation. This is a journey beyond traditional boundaries, a space where the marginalized and the forsaken are given a voice, and perhaps even a kind of blessing in their downfall.”

Blessing of the Damned drops December 1.
Stream the full album now exclusively at Decibel Magazine and experience Hexjakt’s uncompromising debut in its entirety.
