THE ATLAS MOTH North American Tour Dates Announced

THE ATLAS MOTH are going to embark on a massive North American tour this spring (alongside The Ocean, Scale The Summit, and Silver Snakes) to prelude their upcoming glorious new album “The Old Believer” which will be slated to be released this June.  On this tour (which includes a few SXSW dates) you can expect The Atlas Moth to play a decent amount of new music from “The Old Believer”, which we can assure you will be one of 2014’s milestone albums in heavy music.  All we can currently say about “The Old Believer” is simply, expect to…

ALTAR OF PLAGUES “Teethed Glory and Injury” Lyrics

GOD ALONE Who was born here and danced with infancy? The stones let me go, (but) to make a difference their names are kept, expecting half with nothing to find. Like a lighthouse, a wild nothing moved to an empty place tended embers of life fires, envelop, something wide and moral. It takes and leaves, flicker, heavy, growing, leeched. The son will rise. The son has died.

A BODY SHROUDED Pulled from my body, a part of you I never knew, (and I) fall into the whole of your empty space, empty and torn, with a piece of our own…

PSALM ZERO – Complete Work On Debut Album

New York based experimental metal band PSALM ZERO have completed work on their debut album, “The Drain”, which follows their self-released “Force My Hand” 7” EP from late last year.

PSALM ZERO is a duo comprised of acclaimed avant-garde rock musician Charlie Looker (Seaven Teares, ex-Extra Life, ex-Zs, Dax Riggs) and acclaimed forward-thinking metal musician Andrew Hock of CASTEVET.  With Looker (vocals/bass/synth/drum programming) and Hock’s (vocals/guitars/drum programming) combined unique musical vision, what they have created with PSALM ZERO’s debut full-length is an intriguing and challenging listen.  “The Drain” is an album which displays Looker’s distinct clean vocals working…

Featuring Revocation guitarist Dan Gargiulo and ex-Biolich (which once featured CASTEVET vocalist/guitarist Andrew Hock) vocalist Will Smith, ARTIFICIAL BRAIN deliver a devastating offering of atmospheric, dark, twisted and dissonant ambient death metal horror which harbours a heavy Sci-Fi aura surrounding its aesthetic.  “Labyrinth Constellation” is the band’s debut album, after a series of demos which made their rounds within the death metal underground, and an album that will make quite the impression within the U.S. death metal scene.

Recorded, mixed, and…

AVICHI – Complete Work On New Album

After a number of delays, through bouts of furious obsessiveness to bring the new AVICHI album to manifestation, AVICHI sole-mastermind/proprietor Andrew Markuszewski (aka Aamonael) has finally completed work on the third AIVCHI album, “Catharsis Absolute”.

In what will reveal itself as the ultimate work in the AVICHI repertoire and within Markuszewski’s own body of work, “Catharsis Absolute” pushes the sonic boundaries that Markuszewski laid down through his vision of true black metal with the debut AVICHI album “The Divine Tragedy” and its follow-up “The Devil’s Fractal”.   “Catharsis Absolute” is a glorious yet furious and moving black metal opus…
