FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SACRED SWORD ANNOUNCES DEBUT RELEASE “THE ETERNAL REALM CALLS…” OUT MAY 13, 2026

A new force rises from the shadows of atmospheric black metal as Sacred Sword unveils the first transmission from its dark medieval vision, “The Eternal Realm Calls…” , arriving May 13, 2026.

Forged in solitude and steeped in mythic despair, Sacred Sword is the creation of a lone artist known only as Xol. Built as both music and worldbuilding, the project channels a narrative of a wandering warrior bound to an ancient blade, one that carries the souls of the dead and carves a fragile path between ruin and redemption. Each release expands this forgotten realm where hope is rare, but not entirely gone.

Musically, Sacred Sword moves like a storm rolling across a dead kingdom. Guitars shift between aggression and sorrow, while layered keys and strings form an atmosphere thick with dread and faded grandeur. The result is a cinematic descent into a world that feels both ancient and inevitable.

Fans of atmospheric and storytelling-driven black metal will find themselves at home alongside the works of Summoning , Winterfylleth , and Ultar , though Sacred Sword pushes deeper into narrative immersion, where each composition feels like a chapter in an ongoing collapse and rebirth.

Artist Statement


“I am proud to present the first offering from Sacred Sword, ‘The Eternal Realm Calls…’ , which serves as an introduction to not only the music but to the world behind the idea of Sacred Sword. This track showcases the style that Sacred Sword will be known for, haunting keys and strings along with atmospheric guitars and aggressive vocals and storytelling. Welcome to the eternal realm.”

Production Notes


Written and recorded by Xol
Mixed and mastered by Ben Karas at Frost Gauntlet Recording

DISASSEMBLE RELEASE NEW ALBUM “INVEST IN FEAR” OUT NOW - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DISASSEMBLE RELEASE NEW ALBUM “INVEST IN FEAR” OUT NOW
New Single “The Abyss” Showcases Crushing Progressive Death Metal From Serbia

Serbian progressive death metal force Disassemble have officially released their new album “Invest In Fear”, now available worldwide. Alongside the full release, the band continues to spotlight the album’s latest single, “The Abyss”, a crushing and atmospheric descent into darkness that highlights their expanding sonic identity.

Blending technical precision with cinematic atmosphere, Disassemble push progressive death metal beyond the usual boundaries. Their sound shifts between razor sharp aggression, immersive melodic passages, and intricate songwriting built on contrast and tension that keeps everything unpredictable but still locked in as real songs, not just technical exercises.

Drawing influence from bands like Opeth, Pantera, and Gojira, Disassemble carve out their own lane through oriental inspired scales, layered atmospheres, and complex structures that still land with impact and memorability.

“The Abyss” gives a clear look at the themes running through the record.

“Descending into the void. ‘The Abyss’ explores the collapse of internal structures and the weight of the unknown.”

That concept runs through the entire album, creating a listening experience that feels psychologically heavy and sonically immersive from start to finish.

The release was handled fully in house by Milan Rajić, who performed, recorded, programmed, mixed, mastered, and produced the entire record himself. The result is a fully self contained vision with no outside compromises, delivering Disassemble’s most focused and immersive statement to date.

With “Invest In Fear” now out, Disassemble continue building a catalog that rewards repeat listens, balancing technical musicianship with emotional depth and atmosphere while pushing progressive death metal into darker, more expansive territory.

ABOUT DISASSEMBLE

Formed in Serbia, Disassemble emerged from a shared desire to push progressive death metal into new territory. Their sound blends technical precision with atmospheric weight, incorporating oriental musical influences into complex but memorable structures. The band’s defining strength lies in its duality, balancing intricate musicianship with direct, impactful songwriting.

Metal Injection Features IATT as “Walk Amongst” Expands Etheric Realms of the Night - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Metal Injection Features IATT as “Walk Amongst” Expands Etheric Realms of the Night

Penultimate Chapter of Cinematic Extreme Metal Film-Album Out Now via Black Lion Records

Philadelphia’s extreme metal architects IATT continue their descent into cinematic darkness with “Walk Amongst” , the penultimate chapter of their latest album-film hybrid Etheric Realms of the Night , available now via Black Lion Records.

The release has already been highlighted by Metal Injection in their Weekly Injection coverage, praising the band’s genre-blurring approach, noting their blend of “proggy and blackened death metal unlike much else,” with unexpected instrumentation including saxophone, violin, and flute woven into their sonic landscape.

A Film Disguised as an Album


Etheric Realms of the Night is IATT’s fourth full-length studio album, but it is structured as a cohesive album-length film. Each track functions as a chapter in a larger narrative exploring dreams, sleep, the subconscious, and the fragile threshold between the waking world and what lies beyond the veil.

“Walk Amongst” represents a critical turning point in that story. It is the moment where everything begins to converge.

The Collapse of Reality


As described in the film narrative, the chapter follows the heroine returning to what appears to be normal life, only to discover that reality is no longer stable. Familiar surroundings feel hollow, disconnected, and wrong.

The track draws heavily on the concept of astral projection, the idea of leaving the physical body to move through the dream realm, and the consequences of going too far into sleep itself.

Sonically and visually, “Walk Amongst” carries a sense of inevitability. It reveals that the boundary between worlds has already been crossed, and what once felt like movement between realms is now something far more controlled and inescapable.

Cinematic Metal With No Safe Edge


Produced as part of a full narrative film by Posie Productions and Vital Sign Media, “Walk Amongst” pushes the story toward its final act using atmosphere, pacing, and restraint rather than constant aggression. The result is tension that builds instead of releases, pulling the listener deeper into the psychological unraveling at the core of the project.

A Larger Work Still Unfolding


While Etheric Realms of the Night is available now via Black Lion Records, the complete album film experience is set to fully unfold as a complete cinematic release on July 24, 2026 .

Final Word


IATT are not just releasing music. They are constructing a full narrative universe where extreme metal becomes the language of film itself.

And with “Walk Amongst,” that universe stops feeling like fiction.

FALSE MESSIAH EXPANDS THE DARK CINEMATIC SAGA WITH “SHADOWS OF FAITH” AND NEW SINGLE “LAST SANCTUARY” - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FALSE MESSIAH EXPANDS THE DARK CINEMATIC SAGA WITH “SHADOWS OF FAITH” AND NEW SINGLE “LAST SANCTUARY”

Fourth Single from Upcoming Album Seven — Out June 19 via Semetery Records

False Messiah returns with “ Last Sanctuary ,” the next chapter in their unfolding cinematic metal saga leading into the upcoming album Seven .

The world within Seven has already collapsed. Cities are hollow, systems are governed by surveillance and code, and humanity survives in scattered fragments. In this stage of the story, the “Seven” are no longer fighting the system. They are moving through it, unseen, carrying what remains.

“ Last Sanctuary ” shifts the focus from resistance to preservation. It is about what survives when everything else is gone: memory, breath, identity, and the fragile thread of continuity that refuses to die out.

At its core, the track explores a stark contrast. Code vs heartbeat. Control vs breath. System vs memory. While machines seek to track and erase, the sanctuary exists to protect what cannot be reduced or computed.

Musically, “ Last Sanctuary ” delivers a powerful blend of heavy guitar-driven foundations and soaring melodic intensity, wrapped in a cinematic and atmospheric soundscape. It draws influence from both classic and modern metal, while pushing the band’s signature storytelling even further.

This is not just another single. It is a signal from what remains.

EVIL AGE RETURN WITH CRUSHING NEW SINGLE “DEMON GRIP” OUT NOW - @thebeast

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

EVIL AGE RETURN WITH CRUSHING NEW SINGLE “DEMON GRIP” OUT NOW

Niagara Escarpment – There’s no easing into this one. Evil Age are back and they’re coming in swinging. Fresh off their signing with CDN Records, the band unleashes their latest single, “Demon Grip,” a vicious descent into the darker corners of the human mind.

Where their earlier work established the tone, “Demon Grip” digs deeper and hits harder. This track is all about letting the wrong forces take hold. It explores what happens when you feed the negative, obsess over destructive thoughts, and slowly shut out anything good trying to break through. It’s not subtle. It’s not pretty. It’s a full on psychological spiral set to bone crushing riffs and relentless aggression.

Evil Age continue to carve out their identity with a sound that feels ancient and hostile, blending suffocating heaviness with feral speed. This is not background music. This is the kind of track that grabs you by the collar and makes you sit in it.

Lyrically, “Demon Grip” paints a bleak picture of transformation. Over time, the damage builds. The person you were fades out. What is left is something colder, something unrecognizable. A shell overtaken by something you willingly let in. That’s the hook right there. This is not forced possession. It is invited. And once it has you, it does not let go.

The official video for “Demon Grip” is out now, matching the track’s intensity with the same uncompromising energy and atmosphere.

CDN Records continues to back artists that do not play it safe, and Evil Age fit that mold perfectly. No trends, no compromises. Just raw, punishing metal with something to say, even if it is staring straight into the abyss.

Stay locked in. This is just the next chapter, and it is already getting darker.
