NORÐ - Fear Reigns (Official Lyric Video)

Denmark's fivesome NORÐ, delivers the official lyrics video for the single "Fear Reigns" taken off the upcoming new album "Machine Blood" scheduled to be out in March 2022 through Inverse records.

This lenthy track, it clocks in over 5+ min, is all about modern heavy rock metal with thrashy groovy riffs, epic rockish vocals alternated to brutal hardcore screams and cleans, and a proggy feel in the inrterludes and some arrangements that may remind of Dream Theater although the hiper-tech-wizardy of famed American prog metallers is not matched (and here there's really nothing strange or wrong considering when it comes to Nord we're not talking about a progressive metal band or "classic" prog metal genre tout court).

Enjoy!

Deathgaze's VAZUM - Gallows video

A single from this Detroid based duo-band named VAZUM.

I was waiting for the distorted guitars to blow everything at some point of 5+ min track yet they remain mellow and as shoegezy as possible throughout the song -I guess I've been listening to too much shoegaze influenced black metal in the recent years.
A dark sultry tune for the fans of dreamy atmospheres shoegaze delivers.

Check'em out!

ROTSCHRECK "The Transformation" a relic from UK's extreme metal

A relic from the past, "The Transformation" by ROTSCHRECK a Scottish, Dundee based, death metal, with a hardcore and groovy punch, that had their stint among the UK's extreme metal scene between the years 1996-2002.

Their sound shows all its influences still the record sounds fresh, and I love the doomy feel and brutal growls reminescent of famed Peaceville's death-doom bands era.

Enjoy!
