Drawn And Quartered - Interview 2021 - The Zach Moonshine Show

ICYMI: Herb Burke from Drawn And Quartered joins us on the show for a live interview! We talk about the new record 'Congregation Pestilence' and take questions from our audience. Drawn And Quartered resurges to transmit its newest outbreak of evil, Congregation Pestilence, due out July 02nd on vinyl, CD, and digital formats via Krucyator Productions.   A formidable and influential force in the domain of extreme metal, Drawn and Quartered arrived on the scene nearly three decades ago in 1992 under the name Plague Bearer. A year later, the dark death metal group changed their name to Drawn and Quartered; the guitarist Kelly would later revive Plague Bearer as a separate project in 1999.   Forever underground, Drawn and Quartered perhaps have not achieved the level of recognition that other contemporary death metal legends have in their possession. But is it a touchstone to downplay the Seattle horde’s weight? Well, the awe-inspiring discography of 7 critically acclaimed full-lengths, a sprinkling of mini releases, and decades of mutilated live obliterations should be self-evident to determine their death metal hunger and mastery.   On the imminent 08th LP, Congregation Pestilence, Drawn and Quartered stick to their guns without de-escalating the branded frenetic motion, interminable aggression, cyclonic complexity, or unfathomable darkness, and legitimately, the death metal veterans consider it as their strongest studio offering to date. Having new songs written for a split that never eventuated and numbers already performed live, this opus oozes a primordial celebration of violence and devilry. TRACKLIST: 1. Death’s Disciple 2. Age of Ignorance 3. Oblivion Pilgrimage 4. Proliferation of Disease 5. Dispensation (Rise of the Antichrist) 6. Six Devils (Trepanation) 7. Carnage Atrocity 8. Rotting Abomination (The Cleansing) 9.

New Promo: Frank Palangi - Fire Of Love (Single) - (Indie Rock) - @thebeast

ICYMI: Frank Palangi is an indie rock recording artist who positively refuses to let a genre go dark. Show the raw acoustic emotional side or set free the driving energetic electric guitar with a feeding frenzy of gravelly, deep n gritty, vibrato vocals. Frank leaves it all on the stage with the passion flowing through his veins saying "I have no plan B on backing down on my dreams".  This new single titled "Fire Of Love" is off an upcoming EP due out this fall 2021. It offers the message fixing our mistakes and essentially freeing us with that one thing that brings us all together, is Love. (only with hard rock guitars, and a bad ass "bring it on baby" attitude that is the rock genre. Discovering music from the young age of 13, he taught himself guitar, bass, drums, recording, mixing with his style that tips the hat on the past 30 year evolution of 80s & 90s rock & post grunge mixed with a taste of heavy metal. "I was a shy kid with health issues growing up so no sports, so I turned to creative outlets. Learning from those decades I wasn't going for the typical drinking, smashing hotel rooms as the rocker lifestyle is known for. It could be more about the music, the positive elements, that so many people get drawn into and yes that rock n roll rebel yell to stand up for yourself ." Some say Rock is dead? --- 2020/2021 marked an unknown path in general for the music industry since COVID but ever so determined Palangi is still pushing forward. Check out the new song sample on YouTube! Also see him out rocking the national anthem!  Check Frank out on Spotify!

New Promo: Rebirth - The Process of Obliteration - (Hard Core / Metal) - @thebeast

FFO: Hatebreed, Pro-Pain, Prong If you are old enough to remember the old Myspace days, then you definitely remember the angst fueled, old school, but fresh sounding Heavy Metal band REBIRTH which was fronted by Marshall Beck or as we all knew him at the time as Marshall "fucking" Beck.  REBIRTH has re-entered the studio this year with an entirely new and star-studded line up.  The band will be reigning down fire and fury with songs written by Tommy Gibbons, Vocals and Lyrics by Marshall Beck, Drums by Kevin Talley, and a bassist which will be announced shortly.  A completion and release date for the new material is tentative.  Beck says: "This project has been in the works for nearly 10 years...  But, after taking time off from music to fight the Establishment within the legal system, Mainstream Media, and actual Government while executing the duties of an undocumented Asset for several high-powered secret organizations and individuals who had joined me in the fight, it's time to get back to work and to do what I enjoy most of all... Metal.  We look forward to the unity banging our heads again will bring while also making sure everyone remembers the true power of Heavy fucking Metal.  Cheers and Hails!" Here is the last release REBIRTH has now posted on Youtube which they put out before the dissolution of their original line up all the way back in 2007.  It contains the re-known "Anthem Of The Black Hearted.", "Forged By Pain, Driven By Fury.",  and where the infamous "I'd set their world on fire just to watch it burn." line came from in "Castrating The Insecure." amongst a few of the now Internet(z) classics.   Enjoy! listen to the playlist at this link: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?app=desktop&list=OLAK5uy_lAjImN0tQKIU0qY5ZijpiHygFcctwD2YU Check them out on Spotify and add them to your playlists!

Check it out here at this link: https://arrepioproducoes.com.br/noticias/?n=yv3NB4z8DA Press Release  Debut Album: PATH OF A SHADOW Band: Pressure  - ISRC –  Release Date: 7th May 2021 Written and composed by Simon Forsell, Olof Jönsson, Emil Salling  Copyright:  Pressure 2021 “Path of a Shadow” Are you bold enough to endure the journey of your own pressures? This album takes you, the listener, on an adventure that are based on your life. Your shadow, the one that has been following you throughout it all tells your story as he has seen it through his dark but fiery eyes. The story metal TRIO bring you THE PATH OF A SHADOW, THE DEBUT CONCEPT ALBUM was released worldwide on May 7th, 2021 from the guys in Sweden called PRESSURE.  Check out the videos! Self – Recorded in both English, German, and Swedish the album is masterfully done. The introduction of the Story Metal concept is something PRESSURE has done well with every track being a story within a bigger story about life’s pressures and how the shadow beside you is always around. From the beginning to the end, PATH OF A SHADOW will intrigue your conscious mind and you will realize things about yourself that you either did not know or was too afraid to tell. You will be left on the edge waiting for the next guitar riff  as well as raw yet rigid and harmonious vocals. The story as life’s pressures has its ups and downs but that’s reality and that is what you get with this album. Songs, lyrics, and guitars that tell of your own true self! Reality that pressures exist, and you can either lay down and be run over or stand strong and conquer. Life is never easy but PRESSURE provides the tools to help you on your journey! The Shadow knows the path as he walks with you and sees it all! He will guide you on your path into the realm of life’s pressures! Do not worry, the shadow will never leave your side - he is always around. Path of a Shadow: The Prelude Lost in an ocean of terror and dishonor, you realize you are nothing but alone. You fall to your knees, whispering along the breeze, but the waves do not even reach you. You reach out to the stars, but they move further away. You swim and swim, but you drown until you decide to rise from the waters. Lit by the moon, you glisten in glory as you see me reflected on the sands you once hated. Unlike the waves that ignore, my support outpours. Unlike the stars that turn back, I’ll keep you safe from the pack of wolves that desire to devour you and have you gated. I am your Shadow, and this is my path. A journey that starts with you and concludes our wraths. They say ignorance is bliss, but I say to know is better than to dismiss. Now hear me! The Band: Who are Pressure I hear you ask? Well if you had to tag them with a genre the one that fits best is a ‘melodic rock’ but they’re so much more than that. Hailing from Stockholm, Sweden and with vocalist Olof Jönsson you can always guarantee soaring, athletic and committed vocals.  Together with a twin guitar sound coming from songwriter and lead guitarist Simon “Siirpo” Forsell and Emil Salling. Their work often focuses and embraces the pressures felt from everyday existence. Their lyrics ably demonstrating that there are two sides to every story - the good and the bad. Every song has a double meaning and they truly see music as a tool to handle the different pressures thrown at us from the modern world.     The band began their journey together in 2018, and since then they’ve worked tirelessly developing their sound and live performance, their aim? To make memories with their fans and to an epic musical soundtrack.    A quote that can summarize their lyrics is: “How can you tell a story about life if you haven’t dared to live life to its fullest!   Pressure is all about every story, every moment, every Pressure! “They are pioneering what they are calling Story Metal, which is combining heavy metal with elements of melodic rock, with a lot of focus on vocals in way to convey a story within their songs,” -FIRST ANGEL MEDIA Listen to the band at these links:   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/7a9rKp03MYJv4leDN7Mm8k   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Pressuresweden                                  Follow the band at these links: Website http://www.pressure.band/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pressuresweden/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pressuresweden  Twitter: https://twitter.com/pressuresweden

ENTIERRO Premiere Lyric Video for "The Past" - @thebeast

ICYMI: New Haven (CT) - U.S. Heavy Metal band ENTIERRO have partnered with The Obelisk for the premiere of the lyric video for new single "The Past." The track is taken from forthcoming EP El Camazotz. Click the link below to check out the premiere! "The Past" (Lyric Video Premiere) theobelisk.net/obelisk/2021/05/27/entierro-el-camazotz-the-past-vid-premiere/ On June 18 ENTTIERRO will release the long awaited follow-up to their 2018 self-titled full-length. Entitled El Camazotz, after the Mayan bat god associated with night, death and sacrifice, the five-song EP represents a new chapter in the story of the band. Pre-order: entierro.bandcamp.com/album/el-camazotz Recorded just prior to the pandemic at Studio Wormwood in Northeastern Connecticut under the engineering mastery of Dave Kaminsky, the songs of El Camazotz harken back to the NWOBHM and traditional heavy metal bands that they grew up listening to.  This also marks the first truly collaborative effort with former Fates Warning guitarist Victor Arduini, who had joined the band just prior to the recording of their 2018 full length. On this release, he was an integral part of the writing process working alongside vocalist/bassist Christopher Beaudette (Jasta, NightBitch,) drummer Dave Parmelee (One Master) and second guitarist Chris Begnal making it a much more definitive presentation of their creative vision. Together, ENTIERRO is solidifying their ability to create songs that manifest the crushing sound they hope metalheads can continually find inspiration in. Track Listing 1. The Penance 2. The Tower 3. The Past 4. El Camazotz 5.

Drawn And Quartered - Interview 2021 - The Zach Moonshine Show

Herb Burke from Drawn And Quartered joins us on the show for a live interview! We talk about the new record 'Congregation Pestilence' and take questions from our audience. Drawn And Quartered resurges to transmit its newest outbreak of evil, Congregation Pestilence, due out July 02nd on vinyl, CD, and digital formats via Krucyator Productions.   A formidable and influential force in the domain of extreme metal, Drawn and Quartered arrived on the scene nearly three decades ago in 1992 under the name Plague Bearer. A year later, the dark death metal group changed their name to Drawn and Quartered; the guitarist Kelly would later revive Plague Bearer as a separate project in 1999.   Forever underground, Drawn and Quartered perhaps have not achieved the level of recognition that other contemporary death metal legends have in their possession. But is it a touchstone to downplay the Seattle horde’s weight? Well, the awe-inspiring discography of 7 critically acclaimed full-lengths, a sprinkling of mini releases, and decades of mutilated live obliterations should be self-evident to determine their death metal hunger and mastery.   On the imminent 08th LP, Congregation Pestilence, Drawn and Quartered stick to their guns without de-escalating the branded frenetic motion, interminable aggression, cyclonic complexity, or unfathomable darkness, and legitimately, the death metal veterans consider it as their strongest studio offering to date.

New Promo: Frank Palangi - Fire Of Love (Single) - (Indie Rock) - @thebeast

Frank Palangi is an indie rock recording artist who positively refuses to let a genre go dark. Show the raw acoustic emotional side or set free the driving energetic electric guitar with a feeding frenzy of gravelly, deep n gritty, vibrato vocals. Frank leaves it all on the stage with the passion flowing through his veins saying "I have no plan B on backing down on my dreams".  This new single titled "Fire Of Love" is off an upcoming EP due out this fall 2021. It offers the message fixing our mistakes and essentially freeing us with that one thing that brings us all together, is Love. (only with hard rock guitars, and a bad ass "bring it on baby" attitude that is the rock genre. Discovering music from the young age of 13, he taught himself guitar, bass, drums, recording, mixing with his style that tips the hat on the past 30 year evolution of 80s & 90s rock & post grunge mixed with a taste of heavy metal. "I was a shy kid with health issues growing up so no sports, so I turned to creative outlets. Learning from those decades I wasn't going for the typical drinking, smashing hotel rooms as the rocker lifestyle is known for. It could be more about the music, the positive elements, that so many people get drawn into and yes that rock n roll rebel yell to stand up for yourself ."

Pittsburgh Metalcore Band 'Ire' Wins Battle Of The Bands This Week On MDR! - @thebeast

FYI: Pittsburgh Metalcore Band 'Ire' Wins Battle Of The Bands This Week On MDR! Coming in with 2,615 votes! IRE Announces 4th Release “Smile and Watch it Burn” Pittsburgh— 05/14/2021 — IRE announces the upcoming release of their 4th single, a much-anticipated release after Red Ink, Paris Green, and Lost Your Faith. “Smile and Watch it Burn brings out the absolute best of IRE’s previous releases but takes it to another level adding faster-paced, more aggressive metalcore elements similar to that of All That Remains, As I Lay Dying, and Killswitch Engage,” said Brandon Fandel (lead vocals, guitars, drums) of IRE. Classic 2000’s Metalcore Sound Smile and Watch it Burn sings a message of broken relationship, internal struggle, and triumph into new beginnings. Those who have listened to the pre-release of the new single have sung its praises. Fans are saying “There’s no way this doesn’t become a #1 hit”. Smile and Watch it Burn will be available across all major streaming platforms (including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube) Friday, May 14th, 2021. Founded in 2019, IRE consists of Ari Esmi (guitars, vocals), Brandon Fandel (lead vocals, guitars, drums), and Joe Leo (bass, vocals). These three have been playing music together for over 10 years since being early teenagers. Working with top producers, Grant McFarland and Carson Slovak (responsible for August Burns Red, Polaris, Lorna Shore, ERRA, and others), this Pittsburgh-local group of lifelong friends has managed to get radio time on Pittsburgh rock station - 105.9 The X, and has driven over 200,000 streams across multiple major streaming platforms since their first release in February of 2020 – Red Ink. Red Ink has received mass praise from fans across multiple genres and has maintained thousands of streams per month on Spotify which has been IRE’s biggest success, however those who have been a part of the pre-release feel that Smile and Watch it Burn will far surpass the success of Red Ink. https://ireband.com/

ENTIERRO Premiere Lyric Video for "The Past" - @thebeast

New Haven (CT) - U.S. Heavy Metal band ENTIERRO have partnered with The Obelisk for the premiere of the lyric video for new single "The Past." The track is taken from forthcoming EP El Camazotz. Click the link below to check out the premiere! "The Past" (Lyric Video Premiere) theobelisk.net/obelisk/2021/05/27/entierro-el-camazotz-the-past-vid-premiere/ On June 18 ENTTIERRO will release the long awaited follow-up to their 2018 self-titled full-length. Entitled El Camazotz, after the Mayan bat god associated with night, death and sacrifice, the five-song EP represents a new chapter in the story of the band. Pre-order: entierro.bandcamp.com/album/el-camazotz Recorded just prior to the pandemic at Studio Wormwood in Northeastern Connecticut under the engineering mastery of Dave Kaminsky, the songs of El Camazotz harken back to the NWOBHM and traditional heavy metal bands that they grew up listening to.  This also marks the first truly collaborative effort with former Fates Warning guitarist Victor Arduini, who had joined the band just prior to the recording of their 2018 full length. On this release, he was an integral part of the writing process working alongside vocalist/bassist Christopher Beaudette (Jasta, NightBitch,) drummer Dave Parmelee (One Master) and second guitarist Chris Begnal making it a much more definitive presentation of their creative vision. Together, ENTIERRO is solidifying their ability to create songs that manifest the crushing sound they hope metalheads can continually find inspiration in. Track Listing 1. The Penance 2. The Tower 3.

CEDARS Sign With Split Screen Management, New Album "Cowards" Out June 11th! - @thebeast

ICYMI: CEDARS Sign With Split Screen Management, New Album "Cowards" Out June 11th! Split Screen Management has a pleasure to announce the signing of Texas' electronic rockers CEDARS into its roster family! In addition, the band's new album "Cowards" is coming out on June 11th. More details TBA.  The band stated: "We’re so excited to take the next step as a band with Split Screen Management. We’re looking forward to continuing to build our relationship with Roberto, Tarja, Kimmo and the rest of the Split Screen family, as we work together to share our music and art with the world."  CEDARS is an electronic rock band from central Texas whose music incorporates the DIY ethos of bands like The Pixies and PJ Harvey, the haunting atmospheres of Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails, and the infectious grooves of MuteMath. CEDARS is more than just a band: it’s is a vision of community, a community driven by the idea that beauty can save the world. Led by longtime friends Sandeigh Kennedy and Drew Heaton, they blend industrial and organic textures, drawing together disparate elements to marry complex sonic landscapes with compelling stories. Gritty synths and wispy vocals; hard hitting beats and delicate textures are the tools they use to tell powerful, authentic stories that explore truth and beauty.

Extreme Management Group’s Artist Manager Scott Eames has signed Thrash Metal act AMKEN to a Worldwide Deal - @thebeast

Extreme Management Group (EMG), home to bands like Suffocation, Cattle Decapitation, Rings Of Saturn, Misery Index and more, has announced their partnership with Greek Thrash Metallers, AMKEN. AMKEN was formed in 2011 in Athens, Greece. Blood-pumping thrash metal that bridges the gap between old-school and the new-era, crafted by the band's unique style. With the new album “Passive Aggression”, AMKEN really elevated their game. A wall of sound is created by the constant "dialog" between their singers, the super tight rhythm section that the bass provides alongside with the relentless pummeling drumming, combined with intricate riffs and emotional melodies that the guitars unleash. Fotis Benardo (Sixfornine, ex-Septicflesh) was behind the mixing desk, inspiring the band to shape their new sound which blends originally their vintage roots with modern elements and influences. The mastering was completed by George Nerantzis (Abbath, Dark Funeral, Pain Of Salvation), and artwork fashioned by Adam Burke (Vektor, Fit for an Autopsy, Hooded Menace, Creeping Death). In the course of their brief existence, playing 2018’s Japanese Assault fest in Tokyo, Japan and with a European tour alongside Norwegian black metallers GORGOROTH in their arsenal, AMKEN has shared the stage with world-renowned metal acts such as SODOM, DESTRUCTION, SUICIDAL ANGELS, SIX FEET UNDER, MERCILESS, NERVOSA, SKELETONWITCH, SKULL FIST and others; following their debut full length album “Theater of the Absurd” (2017) which was released by No Remorse Records and their first EP “Adrenaline Shot” (2014). With an upcoming full-length album and subsequent tours set in their sights, AMKEN plans to cover more territory and expand their style of electrifying metal. Now, having inked a worldwide deal with Extreme Management Group (EMG), the band says: "We are very excited to be a part of the EMG family and take AMKEN to a whole new level! With our second full length album on the way and our yearn for live shows being stronger than ever, we can't wait to get on the road and bring our music to you all, so stay tuned!" EMG said, "We are thrilled to be working with Amken and look forward to a great partnership!"

May MOTÖRHEAD Madness and Lemmy Celebrated by Ozzy - @thebeast

May has seen the Grammy Award winning legends  MOTÖRHEAD  continue to show the world that they remain not just immortal, but a major part of hundreds of thousands of international music adventures. Their latest release on SL Music,  Louder Than Noise…Live In Berlin , smashed its way into the international charts with typically impressive numbers, including a #4 entry in the German official album charts, a #1 in the official UK Rock & Metal top 40, a top 40 slot in the official Swedish album charts and a top 40 slot in the US rock albums chart. Album charts weren’t the only ones showing their love, the legendary  Ozzy Osbourne  declared Lemmy as his “all-time rock God” in an interview with the BBC’s Johnnie Walker. Ozzy  said the following:  “My rock god is Lemmy Kilmister. Lemmy was a guy - he shot from the hip every time. 'That sucks,' or, 'I like that.' "I'm good at starting lyrics, but I can't finish them. And he'd go - he'd write a bunch of lyrics for my songs - 'Mama, I'm Coming Home.' "So, I'd give him a tape, and I had this book on World War II. I haven't read it and I told him, 'Tell me what you think. And I have a bunch of these lyrics - whenever you can...' I'm thinking, it's gonna be a week. And he says, 'Come back in about four hours.' So I got back, and he goes, 'What do you think about these?' And I go, 'Oh, great.' He then goes, 'What about these?' I go, 'Oh, you got two...?' "He goes, 'No, I got another one - three.' I go, 'You had written three sets of lyrics?!' He said, 'Yeah, and that book was crap!' I said, 'What book?' He says, 'The book you gave me.' "He was a speed-reader! He could read really fast. He was amazing! You look at people like Lemmy and you think, 'Oh, he's a yob [a rude, noisy, and aggressive young person].' But he was very well-educated.” Listen to the full interview  HERE . There was also the annual 8th of May Celebration, which saw BMG/Murder One unveil the first of what will be an ongoing series of archival live material -  The Löst Tapes Vol. 1- Madrid ‘95 , which saw over 60,000 fans enjoy a blistering performance from Lemmy, Phil and Mikkey thanks to this surprise drop. With various social media events going on throughout the day, hundreds of thousands of fans engaged in celebration of  MOTÖRHEAD  and their music. All of this culminated in streaming peaking at its highest ever with 4m streams on the day (a 15% increase). May has also been the month which has seen The Motörcast podcast (hosted by Howard H Smith and available on all podcast platforms, including Apple, Spotify, Amazon, Google Podcasts and Deezer) pass 40,000 listens. MOTÖRHEAD  will continue taking their immortal music to the people this June with the 40th anniversary release of their chart-topping live spectacular  No Sleep ’Til Hammersmith , which will feature the original album plus all three full shows from which the album was originally compiled, as well as unseen photos, the story of the album and other collectibles. The album is currently available for  pre-order  from all your favorite music outlets. In such times of madness, it is wonderful to see that  MOTÖRHEAD  continue to be a major international rock’n’roll force, smashing eardrums and finding new ears to deafen at an ever-increasing rate.

Pittsburgh Metalcore Band 'Ire' Wins Battle Of The Bands This Week On MDR! - @thebeast

ICYMI: Pittsburgh Metalcore Band 'Ire' Wins Battle Of The Bands This Week On MDR! Coming in with 2,615 votes! IRE Announces 4th Release “Smile and Watch it Burn” Pittsburgh— 05/14/2021 — IRE announces the upcoming release of their 4th single, a much-anticipated release after Red Ink, Paris Green, and Lost Your Faith. “Smile and Watch it Burn brings out the absolute best of IRE’s previous releases but takes it to another level adding faster-paced, more aggressive metalcore elements similar to that of All That Remains, As I Lay Dying, and Killswitch Engage,” said Brandon Fandel (lead vocals, guitars, drums) of IRE. Classic 2000’s Metalcore Sound Smile and Watch it Burn sings a message of broken relationship, internal struggle, and triumph into new beginnings. Those who have listened to the pre-release of the new single have sung its praises. Fans are saying “There’s no way this doesn’t become a #1 hit”. Smile and Watch it Burn will be available across all major streaming platforms (including Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube) Friday, May 14th, 2021. Founded in 2019, IRE consists of Ari Esmi (guitars, vocals), Brandon Fandel (lead vocals, guitars, drums), and Joe Leo (bass, vocals). These three have been playing music together for over 10 years since being early teenagers. Working with top producers, Grant McFarland and Carson Slovak (responsible for August Burns Red, Polaris, Lorna Shore, ERRA, and others), this Pittsburgh-local group of lifelong friends has managed to get radio time on Pittsburgh rock station - 105.9 The X, and has driven over 200,000 streams across multiple major streaming platforms since their first release in February of 2020 – Red Ink. Red Ink has received mass praise from fans across multiple genres and has maintained thousands of streams per month on Spotify which has been IRE’s biggest success, however those who have been a part of the pre-release feel that Smile and Watch it Burn will far surpass the success of Red Ink. https://ireband.com/

CEDARS Sign With Split Screen Management, New Album "Cowards" Out June 11th! - @thebeast

CEDARS Sign With Split Screen Management, New Album "Cowards" Out June 11th! Split Screen Management has a pleasure to announce the signing of Texas' electronic rockers CEDARS into its roster family! In addition, the band's new album "Cowards" is coming out on June 11th. More details TBA.  The band stated: "We’re so excited to take the next step as a band with Split Screen Management. We’re looking forward to continuing to build our relationship with Roberto, Tarja, Kimmo and the rest of the Split Screen family, as we work together to share our music and art with the world."  CEDARS is an electronic rock band from central Texas whose music incorporates the DIY ethos of bands like The Pixies and PJ Harvey, the haunting atmospheres of Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails, and the infectious grooves of MuteMath. CEDARS is more than just a band: it’s is a vision of community, a community driven by the idea that beauty can save the world. Led by longtime friends Sandeigh Kennedy and Drew Heaton, they blend industrial and organic textures, drawing together disparate elements to marry complex sonic landscapes with compelling stories. Gritty synths and wispy vocals; hard hitting beats and delicate textures are the tools they use to tell powerful, authentic stories that explore truth and beauty.

New Reviews From Extreminal! - @thebeast

FYI: New Reviews From Extreminal ! HYLIDAE/Unbreakable Curse (Sangue Frio Produções) This a death/thrash metal band and they fail at the death metal end of things. The vocals are terrible. They have the low growls, which aren’t convincing at all and then go into annoying screeches, which also don’t make the cut. I just didn’t feel it from or from whoever was singing. The music is thrash metal, which actually isn’t bad, it is that wicked razor sharp riffing and speed and power, but the vocals are horrible. To me it isn’t easy mixing thrash and death metal and this band is a prime example. To me if this band lost the death metal growls they be a 100 times better. Info: www.sanguefrioproducoes.com DEIQUISTOR/Humanoid (Dark Descent Records) This is typical death metal that sounds like Immolation a lot way down to the vocals of Ross Dolan. The band aren’t doing anything new and to me if your new to the death metal scene this might be something up your alley. It was just ok to me and didn’t do much of anything for me one way or another. Straight forward death metal with no gimmicks. Info:  https://darkdescentrecords.bandcamp.com/album/humanoid REVENANT MARQUIS /Below The Landsker Line (Inferna Profundus Records) Ha Ha this has to be a joke. One of the worst black metal bands I have heard in quite some time. This is just like a wall of senseless noise with some clown wailing and moaning in the backround and I’m sure he will say he is “true black metal”! No how about true complete junk. This I’m assuming is a one man band/project as the promo picture is some dude with corpse paint on within some dark cellar or house somewhere. This is like some cheap, bad horror movie and don’t waste your time or money on this and it is not any good trust me. Info: www.infernaprofundusrecords.bandcamp.com ANIME TORMENT/Void Terror (Slovak Metal Army) Just what the underground metal world needs, another generic death metal sounding band with trigger like drum sounds. The music is a mix of Suffocation and Cannibal Corpse. In other words, bands that have had their sounds copied to death and then some. There is a mix of fast and slower sounds. The vocals are low growls and then those screechy annoying sounds I hate, almost like Phil from Pantera at times. This is pretty much junk and garbage and bands like this, should just go away and find something else to do. Info: https://lnk.sk/aacy MARASMUS/Necrotic Overlord (Transcending Obscurity Records) I don’t know what it is with a lot of these death metal bands as they can’t write a memorable or catchy song to save their lives. Here is another such band as the songs just fly by with useless speed and nothing catchy or memorable at all. Just generic death metal that after it is over, you remember nothing about the band. As I have said, I need a band to bring something to the table and this is another case of a band that doesn’t at all. Just generic sounding Cannibal Corpse Jr. Info: https://transcendingobscurity.aisamerch.de/shop-en_1 HORRIBLE EARTH/Discography 2013 - 2019 (Horror Pain Gore Death Productions) This a comp of the band’s debut album, a split 7” and a GG Allin cover too. This is short blasts of speedy death metal with some great vocals. Now this is how is done death metal bands. Crushing riffs and wicked speed along with some great growls and screams by the singer had my loving this. I do wish the songs were a bit longer, but that’s just me. This is a good find by Mike and this is well worth checking out if you like speed and aggression and not many slow parts ha ha. Info: www.horrorpaingoredeath.com OMEGAVORTEX/Black Abomination Spawn (Invictus Productions) Holy shit is this one wicked and devastating death/black metal release. 30 seconds in I was hooked. The sound, the feeling, the speed, the intensity, the vocals, and of course the music are all wrapped up into one total pounding over the top metal release not to be missed. This brings back the old days of Possessed, Necrovore, Incubus, older Morbid Angel and just that feeling those band had. This band will just blow your fuckin doors off and knock you out of your seat. This band brought the Thanksgiving dinner to my dinner table. Wow I love it. Info: Sample track: Info:  www.invictusproductions.net WARSIDE/The Enemy Inside (Self Released) Complete garbage with the tough guy Pantera vocal style along with the groove style of thrash and this is just a waste of mine time and will be a waste of your time if you buy this. Bands like this ruin the underground as they just sound like all the same bands playing this style from the past 10-15 years. Recycled junk. Info: www.warside1.com EXTERMINATED/The Genesis of Genocide (Comatose Music) Ha Ha is this band serious. That tin can drum sound is a joke. The music is worthless and the singer just growls in the mic with no feeling or hate. The music on this just totally is so generic it isn’t funny. Nothing worth giving a 2nd listen at all. Let’s just create worthless death metal with a tin can and a singer who goes nowhere fast. Guys surely you can do bester than this I hope. Info: https://www.comatosemusic.com DIO/Evil Or Divine: Live In New York City (BMG) I have always loved Dio and it was a nice surprise getting this in my email to review. This originally came out in 2005 and was out of print and is now back in print and it has the full concert as well. A mix of Dio solo material, Black Sabbath tunes and also some Rainbow goodies as well. They are all on this phenomenal release. The sound is incredible and Dio is great form on vocals too. A pure heavy metal treat no doubt about it so do yourself a favor and get this. The vinyl is on 3 LP’s too. Info: https://rjdio.lnk.to/EvilDivinePR DIO/Holy Diver: Live (BMG) We have another double live release from DIO on this release and like the above release it is another must have. Hell I saw this tour at the now closed Phila Spectrum, was back when. He was great back then, and he is great on this too. His voice and the band sound on fire on this and there will never be another like him that’s for sure. You even get a few more classic Rainbow tunes on this that aren’t on the above release. The sound is perfect and god his music is timeless that’s for sure. As the above release this is also available in a 3 Lp form as well. Info: https://rjdio.lnk.to/HolyDiverLivePR AFTER EARTH/Before It Awakes (Self Released) God I can’t take this round of horrible death metal bands ha ha. Wow low and behold a band that does the low growls, not good by the way, and those does those annoying screechy vocals behind some groovy death/thrash metal. Just what the world needs and wants. The songs are weak and frail and go nowhere fast trust me. The music just plods along with no direction and no feeling. Just a wall of blah, blah, blah. Info: https://www.facebook.com/AfterEarthSWE MONGREL'S CROSS/Arcana, Scrying and Revelation (Hells Headbangers) Oh now this is what the doctor ordered for my headache from all these bad bands. A ripping attack of death/thrash that should not be missed. Razor sharp riffing and awesome vocals that sound like Mille from Kreator. This is a pure old school riffing attack with speed and power that should not be missed. An old school production too that just makes this that much more deadly. A total devastating release that belongs in your collection. Info: www.hellsheadbangers.com MERCYLESS/The Mother of All Plagues (Xenokorp) This is the band’s 7th album in 33 years and it is solid death metal with singing like Martin van Drunen. Mostly faster side death metal with crushing riffs and songs that are a lot better than a lot of the other generic crap out there. This band just deliver the goods and deliver it good and hard. There is 11 tracks of balls to the grave death metal and if you grab the CD version you get cover tunes the band does by Hellhammer, Motorhead, Possessed, and Venom. Pick this up of you want some real death metal. Info: https://www.xenokorp.com/ Bleach Everything/Bound/Cured (Dark Operative) A 2 song blast of short and to the point hardcore played the right way. This is like that pissed off style of hardcore back in the 80’s like say The Cromags, Sick of it All, Agnostic Front, etc. A nice and crude production also is on this as well. Brings me back to the way hardcore should be not this pussy crap these days. This will be pressed on a X-Ray flexi disc too. Info: https://darkoperative.myshopify.com/collections/bleach-everything/products/bleach-everything-bound-cured-x-ray-flexi BLASPHEMATORY/Depths of the Obscurity (Self Released) A US 2 piece death metal band and not a bad one. The band rely more on mid pace with their death metal and break it into some speedy parts and slow almost doom parts at times. The 2 guys in the band, their music isn’t far off the Death “Leprosy” path of death metal and I must say I did enjoy this a lot. Just bone crushing riffing with some impressive death metal vocals courtesy of Joe Aversario, who also plays the bass and guitar on this. I wouldn’t call this a clone band of Death, but yeah they sound like them at times and it’s fuckin enjoyable to my ears so fuck off ha ha. Info: https://www.facebook.com/blasphematory UPON THE ALTAR/Absid Ab Ordine Luminis (Putrid Cult) Bone crushing, no frills, take no prisoners death metal with blazing speed and power. Rip roaring riffs and just fast pounding to take you to hell and back. This doesn’t let up one bit and will have you smiling and grinning if you love it fast and played with feeling and intensity. The band slow it down here and there, but for the most part they rip you into shreds with speed and the tunes are a pure death metal journey of a ride that you won’t want to get off, I can tell you that. I didn’t that I can tell you. A must have for any fan of death metal. Info: Sample track: More info: www.putridcult.pl FUNERAL FULLMOON/Poetry of the Death Poison (Inferna Profundus Records) Typical generic black metal with the same tired ole riffs and black metal vocals with a low end production and howls and screams from the singer. I found nothing of value on this at all and it has been done to death and then some. Info: www.ipr666shop.com COFFIN MULCH/Septic Funeral (Redefining Darkness Records (N. America) | At War With False Noise (Uk/Europe) Low tuned death metal that wasn’t bad, but is nothing to do a victory dance over. Fast pounding death metal with some nice growl vocals over it. The tunes fly by and this is far from senseless noise, they have that Swedish death metal sound big time and if that is something you love and crave this is your band. I have heard worse time and time again, but this just misses getting like a 8 out of 10 from me and I’d give this a 7 if I would be grading it. Info: https://awwfn.bandcamp.com/ DETRITUS/Myths (Embryo Industries) This was some very weak progressive thrash (the label’s bio) that is so far from thrash it isn’t funny. Slow, plodding tunes with no power behind them whatsoever. Kinda like the last few Metallica releases, which are beyond bad. This just lacks any kind of power punch and has nothing to do with thrash whatsoever. Mid paced metal that went nowhere fast at all. The singer and production were good, but I’d have liked to have heard a bit more crunch and power within the tunes and I got nothing. Info: www.imperativepr.co.uk SLABBER/Apocryphal Diary (Punishment 18 Records) Groovy heavy metal that lost my interest rather fast. The singer doesn’t have a bad voice, but I hate groove in my metal and this also had that happy sound to it, so this didn’t work for me at all. I’m sure some people will dig this, but it’s just not something I like at all. This is like a normal heavy metal band with groove thrown in the mix. Info: http://www.punishment18records.com/ FUNERAL STORM/SYNTELEIA/The Ancient Calling - split 7" EP (Hells Headbangers) Funeral Storm start things off and their one track is some decent death metal that started off slow and built till they went into speed action for about half the song. Singer was good too as he sang the tune with feeling and conviction. Synteleia kinda bored me as the song just plodded along with no direction and the song was just like a limp, wet rag. Nothing good about it at all. The solo part about 5 minutes in couldn’t even save this band on this track. Info and both tracks to check out below:  http://funeralstormgreece.bandcamp.com/album/the-ancient-calling SARKRISTAS/Sworn to Profound Heresy (Purity Through Fire) Just what we need in the world of the underground. A bunch of senseless black metal noise with a typical screaming singer who sounds horrible behind some total generic black metal music that goes nowhere fast. Just another going nowhere black metal band that ruins the underground. Info: Video Clip: Label info: www.purity-through-fire.com LUCIFUGE/Infernal Power (Dying Victims Productions) This is just some down en dirty early style power metal mixing in the sounds of Running Wild, Exciter and Warfare as well. The vocals are actually more in Cronus from Venom style too. The tunes are very catchy and memorable too and very different and not like all this generic crap making the rounds. This is like raw as fuck early 80’s metal with a deep and dark production and this is nasty too. I also could detect a bit of Razor in their music as well. This is just so good on so many fronts and brings out the good ole memories when the underground was king. You can also throw a bit of early punk sounds in their music too. Check out this You Tube video and become a fan: Label info: www.dyingvictims.com NEKROMANTHEON/Visions of Trismegistos (Hells Headbangers /Indie Recordings) Some pretty nice down and dirty early style 80’s thrash with some solid vocals by the singer. This will take you back to the days of Violence, Dark Angel, Kreator, etc. This is fast and punishing and I was loving it. This is the way thrash needs and should be, not that Pantera shit that kids think is thrash. These guys are the real deal and I love the underground like production which reminds me of the debut album by Kreator. A pure headbanging delight all the way and order this, your neck will thank you. Info: Video link:  Label info: https://shop-hellsheadbangers.com/nekromantheon-visions-of-trismegistos.asp HYPNOSIA/Extreme Hatred (Napalm Records) I don’t know whether Hammerheart Records is putting this out or Napalm Records, but nevertheless this is a re-issue of this band’s 2000 release. This is a re-release of some worthless bad Kreator like thrash/speed metal. It’s one thing to be influenced, but this is total Kreator worship and the problem is, it’s a bad Kreator worship. The songs suck, the singer is bad and the songs sound terrible. All this is, is a bunch of speedy generic thrash that gets old and fast. Info: order@napalmrecords.com SADISTIK FOREST/Obscure Old Remains (Transcending Obscurity Records I didn’t find much to like on this 4 track EP of standard, generic death metal that has been done to death and been done much better before. The band blasts through 4 tracks of standard fare no frills death metal, but they bring nothing to the table for me as this has just been done to death and you also throw in a average at best death metal singer. Nothing of value on this. Info: https://tometal.com/ KATHRASH/Incident Nonexistent (VA Media) This is not thrash metal, it is that fuckin crappy groove metal shit like Pantera that I hate along with those tough guy vocals and happy riffs behind them. Hey if you like that sort of thing more power to ya, and this will be right up your alley. Me, they don’t play the style even close to a band like Pantera, and the songs are weak and bad and the singer does not even do a good job making the songs work. Terrible job on this. Info: www.primitivereaction.bandcamp.com/album/incident-nonexistent MP/Get It Now  (Relics From The Past) This is a re-release of this band’s 2nd album way back in 1987 and includes 5 bonus tracks to boot. Fuckin A is this honest to goodness pure power metal with tons of hooks to suck you in big time. Awesome singing by the singer and this is raise your fist studded wrist band heavy metal all the way. I love the guitar sound on this and the just the overall deliver of the tunes and the sound on this as well. This is a great find and well worth a re-release for sure. Info: https://www.dying-victims.de/ WHARFLURCH/Shitslime (Personal Records) A wicked 4 song display of death and doom metal that I quite liked. Speedy riffs and music mixed in with crushing doom like parts with some great low growls of death made this a winner in my book. I love the guitar sound on this as well and the speed parts with have you banging away and the slow doomy parts will have you on your knees crying. Great release here for sure. Wish it was a full length dammit. Info: www.personal-records.com KATHRASH/Incident Nonexistent (Self Released) Horrible thrash with some groove, but what really makes it bad are the horrible vocals. The music is at least passable with some decent riffing and speed, but once I heard the vocals I was like “this is bad”. The songs lack no variety and just have that groovy Pantera style of fake thrash to them and this falls weak rather fast. Not for me that’s for sure and this is not “true” thrash in the sense of the word. Info: www.primitivereaction.bandcamp.com/album/incident-nonexistent WARRIOR PATH/The Mad King (Stormspell Records) Simply godly heavy metal with insane vocals by singer Daniel Heiman. He is so spot on it’s not funny and he sings the songs with such passion and such style I was totally taken in the minute his vocals came in. The music is a mix of some Dream Theatre at times mixed in with traces of power metal. Oh this album could easily be one of the best releases of 2021 hands down and yes it is that good. Everything on this is perfect. Info: https://stormspell.bigcartel.com LADEN SAINT/Same (Stormspell Records) Apparently this band was formed in the mid-80’s and never released anything and here they are back in 2021 with an album on Stormspell. Now most bands who record new material that were back in the 80’s suck, but this band, no way. This is classic balls to the wall old school power/heavy metal in the vein of say a Liege Lord. Also doesn’t have that new sounding production, which I also liked. The singer has a thick, powerful voice and he fits right in the band’s music that they are playing. This is straight ahead wrist studded, fist banging, heavy metal at it’s finest. Info: https://stormspell.bigcartel.com HECATOMB/Horrid Invocations (Invictus Productions) Crude, raw as fuck (demo sounding production baby) of some punishing death/thrash with those razor sharp riffing and death metal screams that sound like King from Deceased. This will just blast you into hell and back with the power and fury it has. Those screams will tear into you and combo of death and thrash on this just rules. Reminds me of those great days of the 80’s with the demos coming out left and right. If your old school then this is right up your alley, you old motherfucker. Info: www.invictusproductions.net WHIPSTRIKER / ICE WAR/Self Titled Split (Helldprod Records) Whipstriker offer up 3 tunes of old school metal mixing in some early Venom and Motorhead and some mixes of 1st album Slayer. It's nothing super great, but it is kinda cool. Ice War are more like an early punk band sound and the singer is terrible. I don't think he fits the music at all and I didn't feel it when he was signing. The music sort of is like the Sex Pistols at times as well and it didn't grab me upon a repeated listen. You can listen for yourself at the below link https://helldprod.bandcamp.com/album/whipstriker-ice-war UNFATHOMABLE RUINATION/Decennium Ruinae (Willowtip Records) Just what the underground needs and craves, another lets sound just like Cannibal Corpse and the million of other bands that have sounded like them before. The singer is terrible and the trigger like drum sound isn't far behind. The only decent thing on this is the guitar solos. Another band to throw in the pile of complete rubbish. Info: facebook.com/Unfathomable.Ruination.Official/  CONSUMED BY VULTURES/Pseudobiblion (Rising Nemesis Records) Groovy death metal with the annoying screechy death metal vocals that are sung over death metal vocals. WTF. Complete garbage and the groove mixing in with your death metal doesn't score points with me. It's like a death metal version of Pantera. Thanks but no thanks. I'll pass. Info: http://risingnemesisrecords.bigcartel.com/ HYLIDAE/Unbreakable Curse (Sangue Frio Produções) This was a weird release, but not a good one. The music just goes nowhere and the singer with his low grunts and then screams just nothing at all. The music is just bland and it is weak like thrash metal with nothing catchy or strong on this at all. I need a hook or something to suck me in and this doesn't do that for me. Info: https://www.sanguefrioproducoes.com/ WITCHFUCK - Black Blood Baptism (Godz Ov War Productions) Ripping thrash/black metal, the vocals and at times the music, that was catchy and powerful. This band has the old school sound too and it's sort of like old Venom as well. The band mix in some slower parts and faster parts too and the songs are memorable and catchy too. The singer sings his heart out as the hate spews out with a fury too. The band also tears through a Behemoth cover tune called "Pure Evil and Hate" and they crush it. Great release by this band. Info: https://www.godzovwar.com/ BAALBERITH/Manhunt (Godz of War Peroductions) This to me was a below average death metal band with a horrible singer and the tunes did nothing and the music was flat. Nothing to get excited or make me stand up and get excited. Just another faceless band in the death metal world. Info: https://www.godzovwar.com/ SYMBTOMY/Demo #1 (Immortal Souls Productions (Europe)/ Frozen Screams Imprint (USA) Total old school swedish death metal on this. This is like how death metal was in the 90's and the riffs will tear through you and the vocals are pure delights of death metal all the way. The guitar sound is totally crushing and I love the production and just everything on this. 3 tracks of death metal the way it should be. Info: https://symbtomy.bandcamp.com OBSOLETE/Animate//Isolate (Unspeakable Axe Records) Horrible drum sound and the guitar is buried on this. The vocals were terrible and the songs were flat as a pancake. Nothing memorable on this death metal release as it is just pretty much garbage. Nothing on this will make you stand up and take notice I can tell you that. Below generic band. At least they don't sound like Cannibal Corpse Jr, but the music is like a bad trying be technical death metal band. Info: http://unspeakableaxerecords.com   WITCH HUNT/Rock n´Roll Possession (Dead Center Productions) Let's first get things sorted out. This is not the Witchunt from the US, who were death metal years ago. This is not speed metal as the label claims, but I'd say more in the power metal vein. I'd throw them in the same breath as Agent Steel with all the high pitched vocals going on. I wish the guitar sound was up more as the bass is way up there and takes away from the thrashing riffs. The tunes are old school in nature and are catchy and the vocals are solid as well. He doesn't have an annoying sound to him and if you like Agent Steel, Savage Thrust, Hades, etc you'll enjpy this too. Info: http://www.dead-center.eu/ REAPER/The Atonality of Flesh (Iron Bonehead) Simply played heard it all before and then some black/thrash metal that I am really starting to get sick of hearing. It's that simple mix of old school thrash/death and some black metal vocals and sorry but I have heard this done about 200 tikes over the past 2 years and I'm about done with bands like this. Can you bring something to the tabe to eat and not just the same stuff over and over. Info: Sample track: Label: http://www.ironbonehead.de
