ATRIARCH – Complete Work On New Album
Portland, Oregon deathrock/doom masters ATRIARCH have completed work on their most resonating and powerful work yet, their new full-length album “Ritual Of Passing”.
Following up their acclaimed “Forever The End” debut from last year, ATRIARCH would slowly develop a strong distinct identity through their amalgamation of deathrock, classic ‘80s goth, doom and black metal respectively. An intriguing mix which would mirror the powerful aesthetic and vibe brought forth from such bands as Bauhaus, Joy Division, The Cure, Christian Death, The Gault, and Asunder. Through several years of trial, as the band would gradually develop and define their sound,…

INDESINENCE Album Delay
We’ve already posted this notification via our Twitter and Facebook pages respectively, but just to keep everyone up to date on the situation regarding the new INDESINENCE album “Vessels Of Light And Decay”. Due to major manufacturing delays (considering materials were submitted three months ago, followed by a crucial proofing process) because of the slight severity of the packaging for what we consider one of the label’s proudest moments, we were forced to push the release date back at least a month to mid-Oct (Oct 16th if all goes accordingly). It was initially supposed to come out officially…

By creating massive, epic, and crushing soundscapes of doom, all this merely with just bass, drums, and a dual vocal pummel, “Longing” expands on the promise BELL WITCH laid down with their 2011 demo (link to Bandcamp), which was seen as one of the best doom metal demos of last year. “Longing” (which features guest vocals…

YAKUZA – Complete Work On New Album
Chicago cult progressive avant-jazz metal band YAKUZA have completed work on their sixth full-length album “Beyul”.
Seen as one of the most underrated, distinct, and unique American metal bands of our time, YAKUZA have always been synonymous with music eclecticism; the band creating a volatile yet searing hybrid of pillaging progressive metal, jazz, and grindcore. Through the extreme shape shifting musical transitions, one of the most defining characteristics of YAKUZA is of course the vocal delivery of renaissance metal artist/musician Bruce Lamont, and even moreso his incorporation of saxophone into the mix of the music. A trait that…
