  • 100 Demons Premiere New Song “Meat For The Beast”

    100 Demons have premiered a new song titled “Meat For The Beast.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Embrace The Black Light,” which will be released on June 5 via Closed Casket Activities.

    Vocalist Pete Morcey commented on the single:

    “As with most of the songs on ‘Embrace the Black Light,’ ‘Meat for the Beast’ was written and formulated in the studio during the last year. We mixed in a couple styles on this one blending 80s thrash metal and heavy pounding hardcore to give it the signature 100 Demons sound.”

    He also added the following about the album:

    “Writing and recording ‘Embrace The Black Light’ was an experience like no other. We were able to take our time and carefully craft every single song on this release. Working with Greg Thomas and Chris Teti at Silver Bullet made us realize we would not have been able to do this record without them. And with the guidance of Justin from Closed Casket Activities, we know they brought out the best of us on every level.”

    01. “The Nightmare”

    “‘Electric Nights’ is our road anthem — loud, fast, and born for life on tour. It drops right as we are in the middle of our European tour, and it couldn’t fit better. It’s classic heavy metal — big riffs, strong energy, no bullshit. Just pure fun and power. This release is dedicated to our loyal fans: those who stand with us at every show, sing every word, and keep the flame of heavy metal alive.”

  • unpeople Premiere “clouds” Music Video

    unpeople have premiered a new video for their new song “clouds.” You can check out that clip below. Frontman Jake Crawford commented:

    “‘clouds’ is essentially about not letting yourself be influenced by what other people think you should be doing to get ahead artistically, and trusting your own vision and process. I could feel myself being pulled in lots of directions when we started the band and I’m glad we stuck to our guns. I feel like this song is an excellent representation of us doing just that: ‘Not buying it,’ i.e. quick fixes or hopping on trends — be it musically or the way we present ourselves as a unit.”

  • Amberian Dawn Premiere “The Vision Of Dreaming” Video

    Amberian Dawn have premiered a new video for their new song “The Vision Of Dreaming.” This track is from the band’s new album, “Temptation’s Gates,” which will be released on June 26.

    Multi-instrumentalist Tuomas Seppälä commented:

    “I originally composed ‘The Vision of Dreaming’ back in 2021, but it truly found its final form only now as we began working on it together with our new vocalist. It represents the lighter side of the album, but it still has a nice metal bite to it. I spent a great deal of time carefully crafting its sonic atmosphere. The foundation is built largely on carefully selected analog synthesizer sounds, combined with thoughtfully detailed arrangements. There’s a clear touch of ABBA-like atmosphere in the song, yet at the same time, it has a fresh and heavier edge that makes it unmistakably part of our world.”

    Singer Nicole Willerton added:

    “The lyrics of ‘The Vision of Dreaming’ are dreamy and describe the deep spiritual and emotional connection between two people. It explores how their shared memories, emotions, and dreams keep them intertwined, even when physically apart. The lyrics portray love as a bond that transcends space and time. In essence, the song describes a powerful bond connecting two people beyond the physical.”
