  • Blood Vulture Cover HIM’s “Your Sweet Six Six Six”

    Blood Vulture, the project featuring “Two Minutes To Late Night” host Jordan “Gwarsenio Hall” Olds, have released a cover of HIM’s “Your Sweet Six Six Six.” You can check that out below:

    Olds commented:

    “I was a child of Jackass. any stunt they did, my friends and I were gonna try it. Any musician that made a cameo I was gonna listen to. HIM was my favorite of those musical discoveries.

    They were a fearless band bringing maximalism, androgyny, and melodrama back to guitar music in a time where it was overrun with lowercase font, shame, and defensiveness. They also proudly wore their influences on their sleeves and introduced my generation to Type O and many other essential bands. This cover is a reminder to push myself to be as fearless as they were.

    Huge thank you to the BV swiss army knife @rosieslaterdrums for playing Melotron flute and singing this with me as well as holding the razor blade covered in Pepto for this canvas.

    My guy @pookkake is obviously overqualified for this and I appreciate him making time to rip out the wings of a butterfly with me.

    @callmegingersupreme I will never call you that but thank you for layin down these smooth bass tones and trusting my vision for yet another band.

    @sonicassaultstudios once again put my guitar through my favorite amps and made it sound razorblade sharp.

    Another thank you to my visual ??s @samuelleeturner @kellyharrisfx @robmenzer and @lestatspearman. the cover art and photos are getting their own posts but ya’ll nailed the vision.

    Thank you to @purenoiserecs for supporting me covering yet another song I heard for the first time in 2004.

    And a final thank you to @audiomq and @audiosiege for making this sound like one million dollars for an extremely reasonable rate that other bands and musicians should take advantage of. Email Mario and Bradley and start saving today.”

  • To The Grave Premiere New Song “TORTURE PORN”

    To The Grave have premiered a lyric video for their new song “TORTURE PORN.” This track is from the band’s new album, “LIBERATION FRONT,” which will be released on October 2. Vocalist Dane Evans said the following about the single:

    “‘TORTURE PORN‘ might be the biggest fight riff song we have. Lyrically, I wanted to state as bluntly as possible that we don’t care if you hate us, what we stand for or how we choose to stand for it; TTG hates you too. Enjoy the song. Everyone’s still a murderer.”

    “[‘Death Anthem‘] is an homage eulogy to G.I.S.M. – our label mates with visionary Sakevi Yokohama having passed on August 23 2023, and his cohort Randy Uchida in 2001. Lyrically you can hear our calls to Satan, Dionysus and Kali respectively! Fangs to Eva and crew for the video.”

  • MOUTH BREAKER Premiere “Step Down” Video

    MOUTH BREAKER have premiered a new video for their new song “Step Down.” You can check that out below. The track is from their new EP, “MoshUp,“ which will be released on September 9.

    The group commented:

    “When we started in 2023, the original idea was to be something closer to a traditional hardcore band. It was pretty clear by the second or third track we released that this was not to be the case – something far more dissonant and polyrhythmic was insisting in the writing process. On ‘STEP DOWN,’ it feels like we finally let our creative drives run uninhibited and it felt like we broke through a wall to a new understanding of the band’s sound. Adept listeners will hear us invoke rhythms from 90’s-era Meshuggah, but we definitely weren’t aiming for a simple nostalgia trip.

    Mixing those rhythms into our sound made them feel new and Blake (vocals) took it to the nines, delivering some of his nastiest verses to date. The verse over the bridge and build-up goes into some new territory, more of a grime flow which we didn’t expect at all. ‘STEP DOWN’ also takes aim at some particularly toxic traits and individuals we encountered, but it also tangles with the realization that gaining some adversaries is a sure sign that your art is taking risks and deflating some egos in the process. For us, that’s as good a reason as any to forge on.”

  • Exumer Premiere New Song “Allocated Savagery”

    Exumer have premiered a new song titled “Allocated Savagery.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Death Mask Messiah,” which will be released on August 28. According to vocalist Mem V. Stein, the single focuses on the 1993 Waco siege:

    “’Allocated Savagery’ delivers a brutal musical and lyrical account of the event. The track captures the intensity of the confrontation with the ATF, while reflecting on themes of misinformation and division that still resonate today.”

    “Decessus is both an unexpected success story in the making and a testament to the drive, talent and vision of Ignacia and the band. When we heard the new material the band had recorded for the upcoming album, it was instant as it masterfully weaves together elements of death metal, progressive metal and djent in a thoroughly modern way that will cement Decessus on the world stage.”
