It features old classics and new favourites. All of which have been newly remixed, remastered by longtime producer Bill Metoyer (Slayer, Armored Saint). They are also working on a new EP and full-length album for 2023 and opening for TRAPT later in the year. With a lot going on for the band, we chatted with guitarist/keyboardist Mick Michaels to speak about everything. Firstly, let’s go back to the beginning. What was your earliest memory of music and the moment you decided you wanted to be a musician? I don’t know if this is the earliest memory, but I remember my younger sister, my cousin and I jamming out to the sounds of the Jackson 5 on the radio in our kitchen. What age was I? Not sure, but I know if was the 70s. Was that the mo...

  Nicklas Sonne, best known as the frontman, lead singer, songwriter and producer for the progressive metal band Defecto, has announced his much-anticipated debut solo album 'Resonance' which is set for release in November 2022 via Prime Collective. Alongside the announcement of his new album Nicklas Sonne has dropped his first ever offering in the form of new single ‘Misery’. Seen as one of Denmark’s biggest musical talents in recent years, Nicklas takes listeners through big symphonic arrangements, equilibristic bombastic choruses, in a grand, yet traditional heavy metal style. Check out his brand new single ‘Misery’ below: “Misery is an extremely personal song, of a specific situation that happened when i was a little boy, as well as the feelings it created in me during a difficult time as a child split between his parents, in the beginning of an ugly divorce. The song invites the listener through a beast of a single, in a genre I can almost call my own, with old-school ...

Century Media Records is thrilled to team up with DISTANT, the multinational juggernaut that emerged from Rotterdam, The Netherlands as well as from Bratislava, Slovakia. DISTANT comment: “We are beyond excited for signing with one of the greatest metal record labels on earth, Century Media Records. With their perfect foundation for the next sagas of our lore, you can expect a lot more dark and evil albums coming from our camp!” Dive headfirst into darkness and enjoy 'Exofilth': Since their initiation in 2014 and the release of their inaugural EP, ‘Tsukuyomi’, DISTANT unleashed two studio albums, ‘Tyrannotophia’ (2019) and ‘Aeons of Oblivion’ (2021), as well as two EPs, ‘Dawn of Corruption’ (2020) and ‘Dusk of Anguish’ (2021). However, DISTANT have been breaking through the confines of deathcore and created no less than their own multidisciplinary universe by adding the fictional novel ‘The Rise of Tyrannotophia’ into the mix that is accompanying ‘Aeons of Oblivion’. In the p...

  In advance of the band’s debut LP, ‘Charm Offensive’, which is out 19th August, the swaggering British rock band, Slyder Smith & the Oblivion Kids, have premiered a brand new video for their latest single, ‘Pleasure Victim’. This new material lands as the group prepare for an extensive UK Tour commencing 23rd August as special guests to groove rock legends Electric Boys. Watch 'Pleasure Victim' (official music video): https://youtu.be/etGG7TR2_x4 ‘Pleasure Victim’ is a sleaze powered runaway train; an homage to the decadence and debauchery of the late 80s/early 90s Soho rock scene. The new song is a hard-hitting classic rock anthem with filthy duelling guitars, steam roller bass and relentless pounding beat. Lyrically it tells the story of the transformation from being shackled to the doldrums of the 9-5 life to when the weekend finally comes, and the seduction of the night lures you in to live the dream of rock stardom. “Seduce me with all your charms, I’m a victim whe...

  In recent times, everyone has wandered dark paths – death, doom and misery have no longer been exclusive to occult spheres and mythical surroundings, they have become a part of everyone's reality. The more present strong and negatively connotated emotions are, the more important it is to canalize them – and let something powerful rise out of the ruins and shattered pieces of one's mind. The multinational band Wolf Counsel, based in the gloomy and ever tales-enriching heights of Ireland, are about to channel their anger and troubled senses on their 5th full-length album Initivm, garnished with heavy riffs and diversely vigorous vocals. They have definitely devoted their hearts and souls to give their fans yet again a true masterpiece of haunting harmonies and complex arrangements. Wolf Counsel came into existence in 2014, when two veteran musicians merged their enthusiasm for monumental low-tuned music and great appreciation of ponderous bass lines into a new band.
