BURNT WITCH RACKS UP CREDIBILITY WITH WEEDIAN FEATURE AND MATT PIKE PRAISE

West Tennessee – West Tennessee doom and sludge four-piece Burnt Witch continue to cement their place in the underground heavy scene. Their EP Dopelich , released independently on February 13, 2026, was recently featured in Weedian ’s Best Releases of February , earning recognition for its dense riffs, hypnotic grooves, and swamp-soaked Southern atmosphere.

Building on this momentum, the band has released a rig rundown video showcasing lead guitarist Matt Page’s setup, giving fans an in-depth look at the gear behind their massive tone. The video has since caught the attention of Matt Pike (of Sleep / High on Fire ), who praised the breakdown—a major nod of approval from one of modern doom and sludge’s foremost guitar titans.

The rig features several standout pedals from Does It Doom , including the devastatingly heavy Baghdad, giving Dopelich its thick, cavernous tone that fans of Electric Wizard , Crowbar , and Eyehategod crave.

“Burnt Witch are not here to be clean. They are here to be crushing,” said Zach Moonshine , Metal Devastation Radio.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

VAULDERIE’s Sanguinoctum Scores 8/10 in Bringer of Death Zine : “A Killer Blend of Black and Thrash Metal”

VAULDERIE is turning heads and racking up acclaim for their 2025 album Sanguinoctum . The underground black-thrash force has just been featured in Bringer of Death Zine , earning a solid 8/10 and praise for delivering a perfect mix of dark, aggressive, and ritualistic metal.

The review highlights VAULDERIE’s mastery of atmosphere, riffing, and vocals:




“VAULDERIE are a very great sounding mixture of black and thrash metal… Horror movie style keyboards kick things off, giving way to thrash riffs, blast beats, and high-pitched black metal screams. There’s a perfect mix of slow, mid-paced, and fast sections, with solos, leads, and even death metal growls adding depth. The production is professional, and the lyrics cover Occultism, Vampirism, and Ritualistic themes… Recommended tracks include ‘Calling The Blood,’ ‘Flight Of The Gargoyles,’ ‘From The Crypt,’ and ‘Among The Aeries.’ 8 out of 10.”

Already celebrated for its raw energy and uncompromising underground edge, Sanguinoctum proves VAULDERIE isn’t just another black-thrash act—they’re a full-on force in the extreme metal scene.

For fans of dark, high-octane black and thrash metal, this review is confirmation: VAULDERIE delivers exactly what the underground craves.

False Messiah Unleashes “Rise of the Seven” – Second Single from Upcoming Album Seven (Out June 19) - @thebeast

False Messiah Unleashes “Rise of the Seven” – Second Single from Upcoming Album Seven (Out June 19)

https://idol-io.ffm.to/riseoftheseven />
MONTREAL, April 1, 2026 – Following the explosive debut single Iron Sky , cinematic symphonic dark metal project False Messiah returns with “Rise of the Seven,” the second single from their highly anticipated album Seven , set for release June 19 via Semetery Records.

Iron Sky introduced fans to a dystopian world dominated by surveillance, automation, and algorithmic authority—a place where humanity faces a stark choice: submission or conscious resistance. With Rise of the Seven , False Messiah turns the narrative toward action. From the ruins of collapsing institutions emerges a new force: the “Seven,” survivors who rise when systems fail and power becomes faceless and abstract.

Inspired by post-apocalyptic fiction, modern insurgency narratives, and real-world decentralized resistance movements, “Rise of the Seven” explores a world where hope no longer comes from governments or structures, but from those willing to stand, organize, and act. It is a declaration of defiance: humanity must become its own shield against extinction.

Musically, the track expands False Messiah’s cinematic universe. Monumental orchestral arrangements collide with aggressive modern guitars, dark electronic textures, and ritualistic atmospheres. The result is an immersive soundscape evoking underground movements, last stands, and cities collapsing under technological dominance. Symphonic grandeur meets extreme metal intensity, reinforcing themes of urgency, rebellion, and awakening.

Together, Iron Sky and Rise of the Seven form the opening fractures of Seven , a conceptually driven album that constructs a dark mythological universe where technological faith replaces traditional belief systems, and survival depends on lucidity rather than obedience.

Fans of Nightwish, Epica, Within Temptation, Amaranthe, Lord of the Lost, and In This Moment will find themselves drawn into this expansive, cinematic, and atmospheric metal journey.

LLOTH UNLEASH NEW RITUALISTIC VIDEO “ACHERODAS” FROM ARCHEES LEGEONES (ANCIENT LEGIONS) - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LLOTH UNLEASH NEW RITUALISTIC VIDEO “ACHERODAS” FROM ARCHEES LEGEONES (ANCIENT LEGIONS)

From the shadowed depths of the Hellenic underground, Greek black metal veterans LLOTH return with a chilling new visual offering for their track “Acherodas,” taken from their latest album Archees Legeones (Ancient Legions) , out now via Theogonia Records.

Watch the official video here:


Drenched in a cinematic and obscure atmosphere, “Acherodas” is more than just a music video, it is a full descent into myth, ritual, and darkness. Built on haunting imagery and layered symbolism, the video channels the ancient spiritual undercurrents that define LLOTH’s sound. The result hits like a late-night horror flick meets old-world mythology, pulling you straight into the abyss and not letting go.

The release builds on strong momentum for the band, following the success of their previous video “Black Throne,” which received high praise and was featured by BraveWords, further cementing LLOTH’s powerful return to the global metal spotlight.

The video was brought to life by Bob Katsionis and Alex Haritakis, whose vision transforms the track into a hypnotic visual ritual. Performances from Nina Kefallogiani and PNOE, alongside Kostas Petratos, add a theatrical, almost ceremonial weight to the experience. With costumes crafted by Natali Christaki and a concept developed by PNOE and Nicolas Maiis (Melanomorfos), every detail feeds into the larger mythos surrounding Archees Legeones .

Adding another layer of depth, the track features haunting female vocals from Androniki Skoula, whose ethereal presence elevates the song’s emotional pull and reinforces its connection to themes of death, rebirth, and ancient power.

“Acherodas” continues LLOTH’s relentless march through epic Hellenic black and death metal, where crushing riffs, dark melodies, and mythological storytelling collide. It’s raw, it’s atmospheric, and it stays true to the roots while still pushing forward, exactly how it ought to be done.

Following their triumphant return and the legacy forged in honor of founder Tristessa, LLOTH prove once again they are not here to revisit the past, they are here to expand it and drag it into darker territory.

Archees Legeones (Ancient Legions) is out now worldwide.

Enter the darkness. Cross the river. Descend into “Acherodas.”

Eternal Dialtone Unleash Hypnotic Self-Titled Debut – A Cosmic Psych Stoner Rock Journey - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Eternal Dialtone Unleash Hypnotic Self-Titled Debut – A Cosmic Psych Stoner Rock Journey

Release Date: March 27, 2026

The underground just got a little louder. Psych stoner rock trio Eternal Dialtone have officially dropped their self-titled debut, a mind-bending three-track release that stretches heavy rock into cosmic territory while keeping one boot firmly planted in gritty, blues-soaked doom.

Formed in 2024 by current and former members of Dust Moth, Giza, X Suns, Witchrat, The Bering Sea, and Maxx Shredroom, Eternal Dialtone marks a bold sonic shift from the musicians’ previous projects. The band leans into hypnotic repetition, free-flowing improvisation, and amplifier worship, crafting a sound that nods to the spirit of underground legends while carving out its own strange orbit.

Fans of heavy psychedelic explorers like Earthless , the genre-bending experimentation of King Gizzard , the desert groove of Fu Manchu , and the raw edge of Fugazi will find plenty to sink their teeth into here.

The self-titled release was tracked in a former Catholic church built in the early 1900s, a setting that lends an eerie sense of space and atmosphere to the recordings. The band’s first offering is anchored by a sprawling 13-minute journey driven by swirling riffs, hypnotic rhythms, and evolving sonic landscapes that feel as much like a ritual as a rock song.

Production on the record pulls together some serious Pacific Northwest studio pedigree. The album was engineered by Nicholas Wilbur at The Unknown in Anacortes, mixed by Matt Bayles at The Red Room in Seattle, and mastered by Ed Brooks at Resonant Mastering. The striking cover artwork was created by Steven Yoyada.

Early reactions have already praised the band’s unique approach to heavy music. As Outlaw of the Sun put it, “Eternal Dialtone demonstrates a great style of blues-based cosmic doom into their music.”

With their debut now unleashed into the world, the band has a simple message for promoters and fans alike.

“Book us!” says the band.

Eternal Dialtone is:

Rich – Guitar
Steve – Bass
Burke – Drums

The self-titled record is now available on Bandcamp and YouTube.

Korrosive Land Major Video Premiere for “Khaos Unbound” at Decibel Magazine - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Korrosive Land Major Video Premiere for “Khaos Unbound” at Decibel Magazine

Toronto, Canada – Canadian extreme thrash metal force Korrosive continue the rampage surrounding their latest album Katastrophic Creation with a major new milestone. The band has officially landed an exclusive video premiere for their track “Khaos Unbound” at the legendary metal publication Decibel Magazine , putting the spotlight squarely on one of the album’s most relentless tracks.

Known for championing the heaviest and most uncompromising acts in metal, Decibel Magazine describes “Khaos Unbound” as a full-speed thrash assault packed with blistering riffs, pummeling drums, and venom-spitting vocals rooted in the most chaotic corners of thrash metal’s lineage. The track appears on Korrosive’s latest album Katastrophic Creation , released through CDN Records and available now on CD, vinyl, and all major streaming platforms.

The new video was directed and edited by guitarist Jack Neila , with cinematography by Michael Jari Davidson , whose résumé includes work with Alice in Chains . The performance-driven clip captures Korrosive locked into the same furious intensity that fuels the track itself, delivering a stark and aggressive visual experience that perfectly mirrors the band’s no-compromise approach to modern thrash.

Lyrically, “Khaos Unbound” takes aim at the machinery of war and the expendable role forced upon those sent to fight it. Vocalist Rad Zarei explains that the song explores the moment when those used as pawns in conflict begin to realize the truth behind the systems controlling them.




“The idea behind the song is about war and society,” says Zarei. “It’s written from the perspective of someone realizing they’re just cannon fodder. Those in command never face consequences, but when the pawns push back, chaos is unbound.”




Taken from Katastrophic Creation , the track stands as a prime example of the album’s relentless approach. Produced by Ben Erikson , the record pushes Korrosive’s sound further into extreme territory while staying rooted in the speed, aggression, and razor-sharp riffing that define classic thrash.

With this latest premiere at Decibel Magazine , Korrosive continues to prove that their mission is simple: maximum velocity, zero compromise.
