LA Symphonic Metal LEVINIA Sinks Their Teeth Into 2026 With Dracula Inspired Single “Bite”

Los Angeles cinematic‑metal outfit Levinia returns with the third installment of their 2026 four‑single cycle, releasing their heaviest and most visceral track yet: “Bite.” The single and accompanying music video arrive as the follow‑up to the band’s recent releases “Silver Tongues” and “The Thorn,” continuing the group’s evolution into a darker, sharper, and more emotionally charged era.

“Bite,” like all four upcoming singles, is produced by Brandon Friesen (Halestorm, Nickelback, The Hu, Papa Roach), whose cinematic approach and modern metal sensibilities have helped elevate Levinia’s sound into its most refined form to date.

Drawing inspiration from Dracula, specifically the character of Mina Murray/Harker, “Bite” reimagines the classic Gothic arc of vulnerability transformed into strength. Vocalist Kourt Henson channels Mina’s evolution from prey to force of will, weaving a narrative of emotional reclamation, toxic entanglement, and the quiet power of survival.

“‘Bite’ is for anyone who’s ever felt drained by something or someone that tried to control them. It’s about finding the strength to fight back and become something stronger than what tried to break you,” says Henson.

Musically, “Bite” is Levinia at their most aggressive, relentless riffs, cinematic tension, and a vocal performance that swings between haunting restraint and explosive catharsis. Fans of the band’s heavier material, especially tracks like “Push and Pull,” will immediately gravitate toward its intensity.

The single’s artwork features a single drop of blood, a minimalist but potent symbol tied directly to the song’s themes. More than a nod to vampiric imagery, the blood represents the shedding of a former self, a transformation born from pain, loss, and the reclaiming of personal power.

“Bite” continues Levinia’s 2026 collaboration with producer Brandon Friesen, who worked closely with guitarist Alon Mei‑Tal and vocalist Kourt Henson during pre‑production to refine the band’s most ambitious material yet. The partnership has resulted in a sound that is heavier, more cinematic, and more emotionally deliberate than anything in the band’s catalog.

This single marks the third chapter in a four‑part release cycle that showcases the full spectrum of Levinia’s identity, from groove‑driven modern metal to atmospheric balladry to the ferocity embodied in “Bite.”

About: Levinia blends symphonic atmosphere, modern metal aggression, and cinematic storytelling into a sound influenced by Epica, Lacuna Coil, Sabaton, Disturbed, and Evanescence. Formed from the ashes of Los Angeles power‑metal band Aerius, the group has spent nearly a decade refining its identity into something bold, emotional, and unmistakably its own.

“The mixing was just absolutely incredible for the guitars. I really like that.” (referring to the complex rhythm). This was, I mean, I was super impressed. Really impressed. I love the chorus. That’s what we really love. (about catchy choruses). I love that. It was so good (about the operatic vocals), super super cool. What a good job. I’m happy that she’s back with her band. They all look like they were having a great time. That was super cool. (about the live setting) I love it. Yeah. Yeah. I love it.” (about headbanging). This was perfect. Right up my alley.” “It was very good. Very high rating. This was really cool, and I’m very happy we did this one.”- YouTube Reaction Video – The Rockin’ Roundtable (2026 – The Thorn (single)

“Overall, Liberation is a thoroughly impressive EP that should find appeal with both the modern metal and symphonic crowds, especially those craving a little extra heaviness in their material. Levinia are onto something great here, best to catch them here at the ground level and watch them explode to the next level in the near future.” – Dead Rhetoric (2018 – Liberation)

POWERLÖAD Drops Music Video “Drunk in a Taxi Cab” For New Album “In The Pocket” Out End of June 2026

+ Tour Dates ANVIL (BC/AB)

Canadian sleaze‑rock troublemakers POWERLÖAD have released their brand‑new music video for “Drunk in a Taxi Cab”, the latest single from their upcoming album “In The Pocket,” due out on June 26, 2026, from Luv Machine Records (Vinyl), Night Strike Records (Cassette) and Nice Load Records & Marital Aid (CD).

The video is a hilariously literal, grimy, one‑location ride through the life of a drunk trying to get home, shot entirely in the back of a car. The concept came straight from bassist/vocalist Shel Shock, who adds:

“One night I was in a car coming home from the bar & in the midst of all the spinning, some lyrics appeared. Anyone who’s listening to POWERLÖAD has been there, you drunks. Can’t get more literal or bonehead than that.”

A slower, swagger‑heavy rocker, “Drunk in a Taxi Cab” captures the bleary, reflective moment between the chaos of the night and the consequences of the morning, all wrapped in the band’s signature maximum-voltage street rock attack attitude.

Add to your Spotify playlist – https://open.spotify.com/artist/6r7vD3wBNn5j6qdqvKdpVk?si=qqnV1ZABQhe6IBZwtMRVrA

POWERLÖAD’s new album is eight tracks of unapologetic, high‑octane sleaze rock that chronicle a full night of the band’s self‑proclaimed lifestyle.

“We wanted this album to be almost conceptual of the POWERLÖAD lifestyle. People compare it to Tommy or The Wall, mostly because of the musicianship & lyrical themes, which are superior on In The Pocket,” adds Shel Shock.

Lyrically and musically, the band sums the album up in three words: sex, drugs, and rock’n’ roll. The record is a full‑throttle plunge into that chaos, ripping through eight filthy, high‑energy chapters that kick off with the AC/DC charged opener “Tons of Tail”, a song that sounds like it’s about lots of chicks, but it’s actually about lots of cocktails. Rolling into “Bad Girls,” a tribute to the strong, street‑owning women the band admires. “The Ballad of Shit Faced Tony” follows Toronto’s most persistent blow‑seeker, while “Chains of Rock n’ Roll” channels the reckless spirit of the Sunset Strip. The stakes rise, literally and chemically, with “Stakes Are High (& So Am I),” a gambling‑fueled Motörhead homage, before the weed‑worshipping “Defenders of the Eighth” lights up the room. “Lapdog Deluxe” dives into glam‑trash absurdity inspired by ZZ Top confusion, and the night finally collapses into “Drunk in a Taxi Cab,” a bleary, stumbling ride home that closes the album with hungover honesty.

Following the album release, POWERLÖAD will hit the road with ANVIL for three Western Canadian shows, including a hometown blowout in Edmonton, AB.

Tour Dates:
June 25 – Kelowna, BC – Unleashed Brewing Co. w/ Corpus Upir, Charlie Handsome & the Brats
June 26 – Chilliwack, BC – The Chillhouse Tour w/ Anvil
June 27 – Vancouver, BC – Astoria Tour w/ Anvil
July 2 – Edmonton, AB – Divebar Tour w/ Anvil

POWERLÖAD formed as a reaction to safe, sanitized rock, choosing instead to deliver raw, dirty, high‑energy sleaze rock built for people who want to feel “sexy as hell” when they hit play. The trio features Shel Shock (Bass + Vocals), Hell Hammered (Drums), and Brett Michaels (Guitar).

Recommended for fans of G.B.H., Motorhead, AC/DC, and Mötley Crüe, “In The Pocket”, out on June 26th from Luv Machine Records (Vinyl), Night Strike Records (Cassette), and Nice Load Records & Marital Aid (CD) is available for pre-order (CD/ Vinyl/ Cassette) at https://powerload.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-pocket

0 Saskatoon’s PYTHONIC Unleash Groove‑Driven Assault “Set You Free” From New EP “Laws of Karma” Out July 2026

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – June 12, 2026

Saskatoon’s PYTHONIC Unleash Groove‑Driven Assault “Set You Free”

New EP “Laws of Karma” Out July 2026

L-R – Ryan Hunter (Lead Guitar), Vincent Kohut (Rhythm Guitar & Backing Vocals), Max Hiske (Bass), Morgan Warriner (Vocals), Jayden Warriner (Drums)

Pythonic erupt with their second single, “Set You Free,” a vicious, groove‑driven assault that challenges religious corruption and hypocrisy with unflinching aggression. Following the May release of their first single, “Sentience,” the band now doubles down on heaviness, message, and momentum as they prepare to unleash their third EP, “Laws of Karma,” on July 10th, 2026.

“Set You Free” has long been a staple of Pythonic’s live set, a track that consistently ignites pits, commands movement, and showcases the band’s sharpened direction. Musically, it’s a crafted banger by guitarist Ryan Hunter, built on riffs that have evolved through years of live refinement. The song’s ripping solo and newly added backing vocals from guitarist Vincent Kohut thicken the attack, giving the track the weight and venom it always demanded.

Lyrically, the single is a direct strike at the failures of organized religion. Vocalist Morgan Warriner’s words condemn the harm, hypocrisy, and abuse perpetuated under the guise of holiness, declaring that any doctrine built on hate deserves to burn. It’s one of the band’s most confrontational statements to date, a message delivered with conviction, fury, and purpose.

The Saskatoon band’s third EP, “Laws of Karma,” marks a defining moment for them, the end of their “rewriting old material” era and the beginning of a heavier, more death‑driven future.

The EP features revamped tracks once tied to the band’s previous lineup, now reborn with new lyrics, new energy, and a unified vision. Pythonic describes it as their true leap forward, shedding their old skin and emerging with a sound that is thicker, dirtier, groovier, and far more aggressive.

Musically, the EP pushes deeper into death groove, death metal, and slam‑leaning extremity, while still carrying the band’s signature rhythmic swagger. Tracks like “Venom,” “Feed the Flames,” and the title track “Laws of Karma” reflect years of personal struggle, disability, recovery, and catharsis, written through surgeries, immobility, and the darkest periods of the members’ lives.

“The first set of music I’ve written that is fully me… created when I couldn’t walk or move. We made music to make you move when we ourselves at times could not,” adds vocalist Morgan Warriner.

Rising from the ashes of their former lineup, Pythonic now operates as a tight, dedicated unit, a band committed solely to its identity and to pushing its sound into heavier territory. Their live shows have become a destructive force: raw energy, tighter performances, and an aggressive presence that has earned praise from scene veterans like Stu Block (Into Eternity) and Matt Cuthbertson (Untimely Demise).

Recent performances at Slaughter Fest, Serenade Metal Fest, and their May / June 2026 tour with Exit Wound have solidified their reputation as one of Western Canada’s most explosive rising acts.

With their aggressive, groovy, raw, thick, and dirty sound, Pythonic is recommended for fans of Lamb of God, Black Dahlia Murder, Death, Morbid Angel, Devildriver, Pantera, and 200 Stab Wounds.

“Laws of Karma” is available for pre-order at https://pythonic.bandcamp.com/

Track Listing:
1. Laws of Karma (3:17)
2. Feed The Flames (3:52)
3. Set You Free (4:07)
4. Sentience (4:36)
5. Venom (2:59)
EP Length: 18:51

“Pythonic’s Decomposition EP: Rebuilt, Refined, and Ridiculously Relentless” – North Sask Music Zine

“A nice blast of heaviness to see out the year. Pythonic throw their all into delivering a memorable showcase of thrashing death metal. An EP of five tracks that shows off plenty of creativity, has moments of exciting flair, and undeniably delivers the hefty ‘one-two’ punch of death crossed with thrash metal. 8/10” – Games, Brrraaains and A Head-Banging Life (Decomposition – 2025)

“PYTHONIC does command respect. The way they have approached the music is impressive. I hear Metalcore, I get Metal Hardcore, I receive Groove metal and I hear Heavy Metal. Sometimes one of the four, at other times two or more of the four ingredients on offer. And what is even more impressive; they work well together.8/10” – Metal Temple (Decomposition – 2025)

“Pythonic assuredly on fine footing based on the reinterpretation of older songs for Decomposition. Strap yourself in for a modern mix of groove metal with thrash, death, and metalcore components which leaves you battered, bruised, and craving more.8/10” – Dead Rhetoric

“The first thing that grabs you about this second stab in the dark from Pythonic is Warriner’s shrill screams which are as nasty as a low budget horror movie from the 1980’s but in a good way. That’s not to say he doesn’t have a death growl of course but it’s not all that deep, his preference being to shred your ear canals as he screeches like a lunatic awaiting asylum on opening gambit “Guiltfeeder“. A track with a sinister urge and classy bit of lead towards the end from Hunter, it’s something that has that classic Morbid Angel about it while there can be little doubt the band love a bit of Swedish Death Metal.” – Metal Noise

““EP 1” is a testament to Pythonic‘s dedication to their craft and their refusal to be confined by sub-genre limitations. Each song is a blend of technical prowess and raw emotion, offering listeners a chance to experience the full spectrum of the band’s capabilities. It is recommended for fans of Machine Head, Trivium and Pantera.” – Metal-Rules (EP01 – 2024)

Sixth Album “The Violence of Time” Out July 2026

L-R – Andres Martinez Torres (Drakar) – Voices, Lead Guitar, Bass – Michel Amyot – Rhythm Guitar

Eternal Drak unleashes their second single, “The Unborn Paths Rot,” a violent, thrash‑driven strike that deepens the conceptual and sonic identity of their upcoming album “The Violence of Time,” due out on July 17th, 2026 via Canadian label FirstWave. Following the May release of the first single, “We Force It To Speak,” this new track sharpens the band’s attack, fusing the aggression of classic thrash with the bleak philosophical weight that defines the record.

“The Unborn Paths Rot” explores the collapse of possibility itself. The band describes the song as a reflection on futures that die before they ever become real, paths that flicker into existence only long enough to fail. Its lyrics confront the tension between fate and free will, questioning whether we truly shape our future or whether the weight of past decisions already narrows our choices. Musically, the single reconnects with Eternal Drak’s thrash foundations: razor‑edged riffs, relentless rhythmic force, and a sense of urgency that bridges the band’s early identity with their evolved 2026 sound.

Spotify – https://hypeddit.com/eternaldrak/theunbornpathsrot

YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wHElkRjeUMw

“The Violence of Time” is Eternal Drak’s sixth full‑length album and their most conceptually ambitious work to date. The record frames time as a hostile force, not a neutral medium, but an oppressive pressure that erodes meaning, identity, and memory. Each track is built as a “violent thesis,” dismantling human assumptions about past, present, and future.

Lyrically, the album is rooted in a short story written by the band, following an individual who gradually realizes that time cannot be explained, contained, or trusted. Each song becomes a fragment of that realization—an emotional and philosophical collision rather than a narrative.

Musically, the album is crafted for true old‑school metal devotees: those who crave the rawness of thrash, the darkness of black metal, and the severity of death metal. Eternal Drak blends these foundations with modern production and subtle influences from groove and Latin folk, creating a sound that is aggressive, layered, and unmistakably theirs.

Formed, as the band puts it, “in the middle of a drunk among friends,” Eternal Drak have spent years evolving through the extreme‑metal spectrum. Their sound, described as varied in rhythm and catchy, has shifted from raw thrash/black origins to a more expansive, digitally enhanced sonic identity.

Recommended for fans of Dimmu Borgir, Watain, Kreator, Motörhead, and Desaster, “The Violence of Time” is available for album pre-order (out July 17th, 2026) at https://eternaldrak.bandcamp.com/

About:

Eternal Drak is an extreme metal band based in Quebec City, Canada, originally founded in Latin America in the late ’90s. Rooted in a fierce blend of thrash and black metal, the band has continually expanded its sound with elements of death metal, groove, and melodic experimentation. Lyrically, Eternal Drak explores human and cosmic darkness, a theme present across all seven of its official releases. The band is currently signed to the Canadian label FirstWave.

Formed in 1997 by brothers Drakar and Warhammer, later joined by guitarist Reijav, Eternal Drak quickly gained recognition, winning a City TV award for Best Metal Video in the early 2000s. After releasing early EPs and their first full-length, the band went on hiatus in 2007.

In 2020, the members reunited in Quebec to create The Past Is Gone, A New One Is Coming, honoring co‑founder and drummer Eduardo “Warhammer” Martínez. This revival led to a prolific new era, including the albums Drak Metal (2021), Shadow Storm (2022), Imprisoned Souls (2024), and multiple EPs. The lineup later expanded with guitarist Mike Amyot and drummer Patrick Auger.

Today, Eternal Drak (featuring Andres Martinez Torres (Drakar) – Voices, Lead Guitar, Bass, and Michel Amyot – Rhythm Guitar) continues to evolve while staying true to its extreme metal roots, driven by intensity, melody, and a commitment to pushing its sound across continents.

“A fine collection from the masters of ancient evil” – Metal Noise (The Warrior Order – 2025)

“There’s evil intent at the start of next song “Eternal Drak” something I’d expect as it’s named after the band. Again, the trio are delving into themes of dark forces and mythical battles, but they have upped the intensity on this one as it sounds more powerful. It’s hard not to imagine a town or castle besieged by dragon’s fire and the hellish earth that awaits any survivors.” – The Razor’s Edge (The Warrior Order – 2025)

“another great sounding recording from Eternal Drak and if you are a fan of blackened thrash metal, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE “Oda A La Luna” and “La Nueva Orden”. 8 out of 10.” – Bringer of Death Zine (The Warrior Order – 2025)

“„Eternal Drak“ is a small grab bag. Here they use different tempos that fit into the fast, rhythmic sound. With an extremely thrashy and vocally aggressive sound, you always have to be prepared for changing rhythms and moods. An extremely brutal melody blows with us „La nueva Order“ counter. At the end of the „EP“ they take a Metallica song from the album „Master of Puppets“ before. „Leper Messiah“ rewound in a radical version. Just as the album title says: they implement the warrior code musically.” – Hellfire Magazin (The Warrior Order – 2025)

“The Warrior Order is a real surprise and shows a completely new face of ETERNAL DRAK,” – PowerMetal.de (The Warrior Order – 2025)

““Oda A La Luna” sees a powerful drum at the beginning, before the rhythm settles in this dark ode. The lyrical theme is one of rebellion and ritual, and you can feel the intensity with each slap on the snare. The middle section has a sudden tempo change, with a riff that will get your head moving and the intensity follows through.” – The Razor’s Edge (The Warrior Order – 2025)

“This is a pretty good EP that’s got plenty of thrashy riffs, grooves and black metal harmonies and tremolos, give this a spin. ” – Drako’s Metal Reviews (The Warrior Order – 2025)

WITHOUT MERCY’s New Music Video Breaks The “Glass” With Its Extreme Metal Groove

Produced by John Douglass (Alluvial, Nile, Nekrogoblikon)

Canadian extreme‑metal veterans Without Mercy have released the official music video for “Glass”, the newest single from their latest EP “Infinite Loss” produced with John Douglass (Alluvial, Nile, Nekrogoblikon) and released this past May.

“Glass” stands as one of the band’s most focused and physically weighted compositions to date. Built around a single riff written after guitarist DJ Temple witnessed Meshuggah live, the track locks into a deliberate, crushing groove that becomes the backbone of the entire arrangement.

“Glass hits hard because it was written with clarity, conviction, and momentum from the first note. Everything else was built to serve that initial idea,” says Temple.

Lyrically, the song explores eyes, mirrors, and translation, the distortion between what is seen and what is understood. The video mirrors that tightening tension, capturing the song’s sense of pressure and its final, cathartic release.

The new single arrives in support of “Infinite Loss,” a three‑track EP created during the most immersive recording process of the band’s career. Without Mercy uprooted their routines, crossed borders, and lived inside the studio for ten days, no comfort, no distance, no escape.

“This record exists because we chose to be uncomfortable, to argue honestly, and to stay in the room until it felt right. It’s focused, intentional, and real,” adds Temple.

The EP’s three songs, Infinite Loss, The Saint, and Glass, were selected not as singles but as statements, each surviving months of scrutiny, revision, and collective decision‑making. Lyrically, “Infinite Loss” is about being hunted, not by a single antagonist, but by the pressures of modern life: economics, identity, time, survival. The threat shifts, but never disappears. Musically, the EP leans into weight, repetition, and restraint. Riffs sit long enough to suffocate. Rhythms feel physical and deliberate. The aggression is controlled, not chaotic, a reflection of endurance rather than escape.

The EP’s artwork, created with artist Diego Gedoz de Souza, depicts a desolate forest split by a massive void, a visual metaphor for inevitability, loss, and the gravitational pull of forces beyond control. It mirrors the EP’s emotional core without explaining it, inviting listeners into the world before a single note plays.

Without Mercy was formed in 2007, blending groove, extreme metal, and technical precision into a sound described as “heavy and insightful at the same time.” The band has shared stages with Cattle Decapitation, Aborted, and Death Angel, and has appeared as downloadable content in Rock Band 3, bridging gaming culture and heavy music.

Their discography includes “All Else Fails” (2007), “Without Mercy” (2009), “Reborn” (2014), rereleased as “Mouichido” (2016), and “Seismic” (2020). “Infinite Loss” marks their most focused and intentional work to date, a release built from collapse, rebuilt through discipline, and finished with absolute conviction.

“The music was excellent…a potent mixture of aggression and technical precision. Now that I can taste them, I am very much looking forward to a full length from the band.” – Metal-Temple

““The Saint” is somehow both maniacal and controlled. In its opening couple of minutes it seems to be a carefully calibrated convulsion, discharging its myriad sensations in quick stop-start bursts of seemingly off-kilter but tightly executed mayhem. Those sensations include sledgehammer rhythmic brutishness, shrill and spidery fretwork-delirium, and napalm-strength vocals. The grooves are there — grooves of differing kinds — but they quickly jackhammer listeners in the midst of harrowing howls, scorching screams, and a multitude of fleet-fingered but berserk and discordant string contortions. Moreover, at the 2:18 mark the song suddenly and dramatically changes — indeed, it’s difficult to overstate just how dramatic the change is. In place of all the frenetically bursting frequencies the lead guitar gently rings and seductively warps above gravel-toned bass-lines and steady beats, an interlude that brings hints of jazz fusion to mind. That’s just a quick breather before the song’s intensity blazes again, and yet the segue back into the finale of bludgeoning grooves and squirming guitars is a smooth and near-seamless one.” – No Clean Singing

“WITHOUT MERCY With this release they position themselves clearly in the intersection of death metal, groove and metalcore, without completely submitting to any of these genres. The band uses elements of these directions to develop their own language that relies on suspense rather than classic hooks. Conclusion: WITHOUT MERCY succeeds with »Infinite Loss« an impressive statement in the field of death/groove metal, metalcore. 4/5” – Metal Underground Austria

“the controlled aggression and delicious grooves of title track “Infinite Loss” gradually ramp up in their intensity, creating a sense of slow suffocation before the riffs subside to allow for a technical solo of the highest order from DJ Temple. A powerful statement piece that flows in wave like patterns through dark moods, the sonic weight of the music conveys the message without the need for the harsh vocals from Alex Friis. That’s not to say his words are superfluous; on the contrary, they’re the fuel for the fire as the world burns.” – Metal Noise

“we hear a solid force coming through, where riffs are the main ingredient, alongside a brutal and aggressive-sounding voice.” – Musika

“The resulting output is “Infinite Loss”, a three track assault that zeroes in on a choking atmosphere of mechanical hostility. Musically, the band leans heavily into calculated syncopation and technical restraint, letting rhythmic patterns lock in to create a claustrophobic pressure.” – Heavy Metal Darkness

“It’s only three songs, but it’s a lot to process. This isn’t background music. It’s a physical record that reflects the stress of just existing right now. Honestly, after nearly twenty years, it’s cool to see a band still willing to make themselves this uncomfortable just to see what happens. It paid off.” – Radio Papy Jeff

EPK – Metaladian – Deaditation (2026)

Publicist – Jon Asher – jon[@]ashermediarelations[.]com

For fans of Strapping Young Lad, Metallica (early), Suffocation, Bela Bartok, Ludwig Van Beethoven

“This is the debut album of Metaladian. It is the culmination of 20+ years of work. There is a great deal of variation within the album in terms of lyrical content, tempo, and texture. Still, there is consistency with my use of chromaticism, lush harmonies, virtuosic drums, soaring and heavy vocals, and thrash-like backing vocals. The album clearly belongs in the metal genre, but is greatly influenced by classical composers, which lends itself to the progressiveness and complexity. The album is a story arc featuring a journey of pain, retribution, and redemption. The vocals are a mix of melodic screams and quick call-and-response between all the members. The overall feel of the album is drenched in violence and darkness, but with a hint of light that can be achieved that begins to show itself as the album progresses. The album is crafted to allow the listener to become fully sucked in and able to follow as a kind of sound-journey.” – Andrew Brophy – Metaladian

================================================

About The Album or Single Artwork:

The artwork depicts the members of the band as a group of skeleton witches brewing their toil in a cauldron in the moonlight. – surrounded by snarling wolves and victims’ limbs scattered on the ground. This grisly image is an analogy for the calling to arms to our fellow brothers and sisters to arm themselves for the spiritual battle ahead against us. Dan on the left is holding what’s left of the latest victim’s genitals. I’m holding the victim’s heart and head; Dustin is holding the scythe, and Ruth is stirring the cauldron.

About the album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):

The album is a story arc featuring a journey of pain, retribution, and redemption. The lyrics are introspective and personal, but still have the ability to connect with their audience through more abstract imagery based on violent fantasy. The vocals are rhythmically punctuated with quick call and response between all the members, with the lead vocals being more melodic and the backing vocals more akin to a kind of thrashy punctuation. The lyrics were set up in a way that Dustin, Dan and Ruth are extensions of me. Musically, they cover the range and dynamics that I cannot do. Dustin is on the lower end of the scale. With a lot of range in his style. Low bellowing or a Guttural feral Ogre. Dan is more like a vicious rabid dog, or riot vocals. Ruth gets the ripping, high, screeching screams that slice through your soul. I sing all the long-held-out harmonies as well. The music is both chromatic and harmonically lush, with a dense layer of multiple parts that weave around one another, connected with catchy hooks and bone-crushing riffs. The overall feel of the album is drenched in violence and darkness, but with a hint of light that can be achieved that begins to show itself as the album progresses. The album is crafted to allow the listener to become fully sucked in and able to follow the journey as a kind of sound journey.

Track by Track (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):

1. Left Hand Path – Left Hand Path is part one of two songs. The lyrics introduce the dark and serious landscape of what the listener can expect through the rest of the album. These lyrics show how we are living in a difficult, dark and violent era that seems inescapable. Shattered innocence of youth we all once were, and growing up with the haunting memories of the sadistic brutality of human nature taking pleasure in the pain of the vulnerable. Leaving the victim with immense psychological pain and emotional torture, and an unrelenting anger directed towards the abuser. Musically, the bass and rhythm guitar play twisted, chromatic lines while the other guitar outlines lush harmonies. It’s one of the longer tracks with multiple sections. Opening with sound effects of cold wintery winds with wolves howling in the distance, representing the brutality of nature. We move into the introduction with a high lead guitar, falling into a devastating riff in unison. The verses are made up of slowly climbing chromatic guitar riffs with vocals passed between members with blistering leads at their apex. The middle section is a hypnotic drone section with erratic screams and wild guitar noise. Closer to the end of the song, we move in with a slower, more introspective, hypnotic section Chanting we will curse you 100 000 fold. We end with more melodic vocals and triumphant chord changes that prepare us for Deaditation

2. Deaditation – Deaditation is part two of Left Hand Path and is the featured single off the album. Lyrically, it paints a picture of a blackened world with the band calling its fans to arm themselves against the forces of evil that attempt to push us down. Giving the emotional devastation back to the abusers through a Deaditation. A meditated psychic attack that forces the predator to feel the pain they left on the victim 100,000-fold. The track opens up with a massive crowd of rioters hunting down their victim. Dustin starts us off on the bass with a constant chromatic line as Ruth fades in with the contagious droning harmonies while Dan’s guitar is ripping feedback. I enter with a tribal drum solo that takes us into the first verse. The interplay between vocalists is quick and dizzying. The drum parts were written to match the rhythm of the vocals. The vocals dictated the cymbal hits for the most part, which just happened naturally from singing and playing drums. The music itself comprises three different sections – a plateau, an ascension and a descent – each of which is permeated by chromatic runs, with the lead guitar playing lightning-fast licks to punctuate the sections. Each time the three sections restart, the tempo is increased. In this way, the music is incrementally and constantly gaining momentum, driving the music to a spiralling frenzy by the final descent. We end with the crowd of rioters celebrating.

3. No Worse Death Than The Loss Of All Hope – No Worse Death Than the Loss of All Hope (NWDTTLOAH) is the third track and is part one of two songs. NWDTTLOAH performs a 180-degree change from what the listener has heard so far. It is a slow and sludgy song – dark and depressing that feels as though one is wallowing in a pit of despair from which they can never leave. The lyrics bring this feeling across with giant harmonies and long-held notes punctuated by the backing vocals. The music is through-composed with nearly no repetition, but as a stream of consciousness with small fragments of repeated figures that tie it together. The song ends with long-held chords and the vocalists screaming “no” in unison. On the final instrumental hit is a church bell that feels like death has taken hold, with a sample of a grief-stricken soul crying, wallowing in self-pity. Beneath the tolling of the bell, a dark, chromatic-sounding classical guitar piece I composed is performed by my brother Dan, which meanders until it comes to its conclusion.

4. Confrontation with God – Is part two of No Worse Death. Confrontation is the transition between pain and retribution. The lyrics are a questioning of why? Why does life have to work this way? Why would God allow this to happen? It is the final straw, and I have it out with God. Falling deeper into mental and emotional anguish, then into panic and maniacal hysterics, pushed past the point of no return. The end is the attempted suicide, begging for forgiveness, then death. The music is one of the more complex arrangements of the entire album. There is an elongated introduction with a prayer recited with a march-like snare and bass drone, sirens, arpeggiated guitar chords and a melodic guitar floating on top. The band enters together triumphantly with unison chords and dives straight into the heaviness. The song ends with a crushing two-note riff that slows to nearly a halt, following suit with the lyrics and the slowing down of the music to recreate the slowing down of the heart into the last breath, then flatlines. Leaving the listener exhausted by the end.

5. Cure for Judgement – Cure for Judgement is the other single from the album. It is part one of two songs (Holy Hell being part two). The lyrics for this song deal with the evils that come with judgement and how those who push their views on others are ignorant of personal truth and sovereignty. It is also ironic as it would naturally humble me on the views and judgements of others and seeing everything and everyone as a reflection of myself. The music is a medium tempo, beginning with some noise that sounds as though the guitar is on fire. The musical structure is complex, beginning with Ruth arpeggiating chords at an alarming speed. Directly after the bass, drums, and other guitars are layered over top in unison with the words “burn” and “fire” being passed around by the members. Following the introduction are several verses and bridges that expand and diminish in length, interspersed by blazing quick and snake-like melodic solos. These are broken up with several choruses in which my voice rings overtop, and the music is heightened to be almost ecstatic. The song ends with chaos – drums, bass, and guitar are playing an almost marching beat with the lead guitar performing an array of arpeggio sweeps.

6. Welcome to Your Holy Hell – Holy Hell is one of the heavier songs on the album with an upbeat tempo that makes the listener want to thrash everything in sight! The lyrics dwell on revenge and payback – a chance to finally let the person in mind know what you think of them. Furiously mocking and berating them, which is backed up by the musical intensity. The song opens with an ascent that accelerates until it feels inescapable, then suddenly falls away. This breaks away into a groovy, angry riff with ranting and raving from me and some thrash-like backing vocals. Soon after, the anger melts away into a doom-like groove that slows into a sludge. The music again ascends until we are back into an even quicker tempo with more insane and angry-sounding rants, insults and a punchy, groovy riff that carries the music into an almost fight-like sound. The end completely breaks away with soaring melodic vocals, triumphant chord changes and a virtuosic solo. Then the music comes to an end with a sample of my pet dog Adian before he passed away, barking and playing for the last time before I had to put him down. There are sounds of a beautiful sunny day at the waterfront with a soft breeze in the trees. Adian represents the final part of the arc – redemption.

================================================

BAND STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS:

1. The lyrics have an arc, beginning with depression and self-hatred, but lead to revenge and end with redemption. Even though the lyrics can be abrasive and violent, they also lead us into self-realization, actualization, and forgiveness.

2. Ruth’s rhythm guitar part is the main harmony and is almost completely composed of arpeggiated chords throughout, being almost a kind of keyboard part played on guitar. The other guitar and bass play almost always in rhythmic unison, and the drums tend to punctuate both parts. In this sense, a bigger sound is achieved.

3. All four members are also part of the Hamilton band 30 Immolated; 16 returned who have released one full-length, an EP, and a video. Also, Daniel and I are brothers who have been playing metal together since we were teenagers; Ruth is Dan’s wife, so it’s a family band of sorts. Dustin is, of course, our metal brother from another mother.

4. Dan, Ruth, and I have studied classical guitar and music. I was fortunate to go back to school in my late twenties and studied classical guitar and music at Mohawk College in Hamilton for four years. My brother and Ruth both have doctorates in composition. All three of us teach music for a living. I personally have taught at a few different music studios in the greater Toronto area for twenty-five years, but I have been teaching guitar, bass, and ukulele at Long and McQuade’s for around ten years now. I have also been teaching drums, piano, guitar, and ukulele at Dan and Ruth’s music studio as well as privately on my own.

5. I created and designed the band name and logo, Metaladian. Which means, quite simply, a Canadian metalhead. Each letter of Metaladian was designed as a weapon. I was born on July 1st, 1974, in Ottawa. I love Canada and consider myself very fortunate to have lived from one side of Canada to the other.

Metaladian is a new band formed in Hamilton, Ontario, led by composer, drummer, and vocalist Andrew Brophy. Musically, we belong in the metal genre, but are greatly influenced by classical composers, lending itself to the progressiveness and complexity. The overall feel of the music is drenched in violence and darkness, but with a hint of light that can be achieved through our musical journey. The lead vocals, performed by drummer Andrew Brophy, are both harsh and melodic, with soaring melodies and lush harmonies, which alternate with the more thrash-style vocals from the rest of the band. The drums themselves are virtuosic, complementing the crushing riffs and flowing chords. The debut album “Deaditation” from Metaladian is the culmination of 20+ years of work. There is a great deal of variation within the album in terms of musical content, tempo, and texture.

0 TONIC BREED Teams Up With Legends Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne), Joel Hoekstra (Whitesnake, Trans-Siberian Orchestra) For New Single “Name Dealer”

June 10, 2026

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – June 10, 2026

TONIC BREED Teams Up With Legends Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne), Joel Hoekstra (Whitesnake, Trans-Siberian Orchestra) For New Single “Name Dealer”

Norwegian one‑man metal force Tonic Breed, led by creator and multi‑instrumentalist Patrik K. Svendsen, returns with a brand‑new 2026 single, “Name Dealer”, a high‑intensity track featuring two legendary guest musicians, Tommy Aldridge (Whitesnake, Ozzy Osbourne) on drums and Joel Hoekstra (Whitesnake) on lead guitar.

The single follows Tonic Breed’s earlier 2026 release, “Close In,” which featured Charlie Engen (Five Finger Death Punch), continuing Svendsen’s ongoing tradition of bold collaborations and creative reinvention.

Since transforming Tonic Breed into a solo project in 2019, Svendsen has pushed the project into new territory with each release. With “Name Dealer,” he once again avoids repetition, opting instead for a fresh, unexpected direction while preserving the intensity, energy, and melodic edge that define the Tonic Breed identity.

“I haven’t followed the same path as the previous release. Because of that, I think this song will once again come as a surprise to fans. If you’ve followed Tonic Breed over the years, I hope you’ll find it worth a listen,” says Svendsen.

“Name Dealer” wastes no time. The track launches with immediate force and maintains its momentum from start to finish. Musically, it blends sharp riffing with a hook‑laden chorus, a twist not typically associated with Tonic Breed’s catalogue.

The single was recorded across three different locations in Norway and the United States, then mixed and co‑produced by Adrian Bjerketvedt, who also contributed atmospheric keys that elevate the track’s depth and dimension.

For Svendsen, working with Aldridge and Hoekstra marks a milestone moment in the Tonic Breed’s journey.

“It’s an absolute honor to have Tommy Aldridge and Joel Hoekstra on this song. Their performances exceeded all expectations, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Having the opportunity to collaborate with musicians of their caliber means a great deal to me, and it’s something I’m truly grateful for,” adds Svendsen.

THUNDEROR To Perform at NXNE (Toronto) Supporting New Album “Bleed For It”

THUNDEROR is gearing up for a major moment this June as they bring their high‑energy arena‑rock metal to NXNE, performing June 13 at Bovine Sex Club as part of the Rock & Metal Alliance showcases (https://www.nxne.com/2026-artists/thunderor). The appearance marks a key highlight in the band’s 2026 run, arriving alongside a wave of recognition for their latest album “Bleed For It.”

The performance follows THUNDEROR‘s recent Eastern Canadian tour supporting Switzerland’s Burning Witches and nomination for Loud Release of the Year for their anthemic single “Cape Breton Home” at the 38th East Coast Music Awards held this past May in Sydney, NS. The nomination underscores the band’s growing impact and the emotional resonance of their newest material.

Their upcoming performance at NXNE only amplifies the band’s momentum behind “Bleed For It” and their continued creative evolution.

Thunderor‘s new album “Bleed For It” serves as the official soundtrack to Thunderor The Musical, which premiered at the Toronto Fringe Festival in 2025. Set in an alternate 1992, the story follows Bowen, a washed‑up musician and biker, on a final quest for glory alongside his friends Kenzie, Sheenah, and a local friar. Their journey spirals into rivalries, rebellion, romance, and self‑discovery.

“I hope this album inspires listeners to follow their dreams. Let it be the soundtrack to your unbridled life adventures,” says drummer, vocalist, and primary songwriter JJ Tartaglia.

Musically, the album pushes deeper into THUNDEROR’s arena‑rock‑opera identity, anthemic, melodic, emotional, and cinematic. Tartaglia comments:

“The vocals have improved drastically, and the songwriting has matured. There’s more emotion in the music, and the choruses are bigger than ever.”

The tracklist mirrors the musical’s dramatic arc, from the adrenaline of “Pump Up The Volume” and the title track, to the heartfelt “Cape Breton Home,” the rebellious “Streets Of Fire,” and the climactic closer “In The Fire O’ The Heat.”

“Many of these songs began with vocal melodies. I handled the melodies, arrangements, and drums, while Jonny Nesta wrote the guitar parts. It’s a true collaboration, but the story and emotion drive everything,” says Tartaglia.

Influences include Meat Loaf, Van Halen, Night Flight Orchestra, Skull Fist, Ghost, and The Darkness, a modern revival of the arena‑rock spirit built for escape, drama, and big‑stage energy.

“”Bleed For It” is an album that confirms that Thunderor can turn classic heavy/speed metal into something fresh, energetic and full of character. Originating from the Canadian stage and built on the experience of Skull Fist musicians, the band focuses on a sound based on a motor rhythm, sharp riffs and vocals carrying a spirit of determination. Thematically, the album revolves around perseverance, the fight for dreams and the romanticism of freedom, motifs that perfectly match its driving dynamics. It’s consistent, honest and passionate material that pretends nothing more than what it is.” – W-Mgnieniu-Rocka

“The album offers solid entertainment for fans of energetic rock and metal.. Bleed For It shows the visionaries from Canada in their full strength.” – Metal Underground.at

“a happy metal attitude with modern glam rock in a way that you can still sing along loudly even at three per mille.” – PowerMetal.de

“THUNDEROR’s album is certainly well played, produced and made” – My Revelations

“Thunderor have delivered a record that salutes the golden age of heavy metal while sounding hungry enough to carry that torch forward. It’s riff-loaded, anthem-stuffed, proudly excessive and overflowing with passion. For fans of soaring traditional metal, speed-fuelled riff worship and albums that understand heavy metal should be as exhilarating as it is powerful, Bleed For It is an easy recommendation. This thing doesn’t just play loud. It lives loud.” – Woody’s Rock Reviews

“THUNDEROR stand for catchy, versatile metal and heavy rock.” – Obliveon

“Between heavy metal, punk hooks and touches of rock opera, Thunderor suggest an album different, assumed and above all interesting to explore.” – Eloquence Art

“Entertaining entertainment that focuses on catchiness, catchy choruses and a heavy metal/rock n’ roll feeling with casual beats on all sides. THE DARKNESS/JOURNEY/STEELPANTHER/TNFO fans will enjoy the entertaining Hard n’ Heavy Rock spectacle.” – FFM-Rock

“A drummer who handles lead vocals is always impressive to me, and Tatalia did not disappoint. Although playing a kit with high-mounted symbols and having an energetic playing style, his vocal power did not suffer. He made it seem easy, even though I know it’s not. Nesta and Gunn commanded the front of the stage. It was not hard to tell that these guys enjoy being onstage, as their constant movements and headbanging kept things visually entertaining. However, even the band’s sound alone had the audience hooked. Melodic but heavy, they blend the likes of Heavy Metal, arena rock and even rock opera into something unique but familiar. They utilise their influences without copying, creating a sound of their own. They played multiple tracks from their newest album, Bleed For It, which was being released that night at midnight, celebrating the release with a room filled with music fans who gave them their full attention.” – Metal Talk (Live Review – Toronto 2026 – opening for Burning Witches)

“Thunderor are back with a new fist pumping anthem, the single ‘Pump Up The Volume’ is here and it’s the first track from their forthcoming album “Bleed For It” coming in March. Speedy riffs with plenty of energy to match, ‘Pump Up The Volume’ also pulls in those classic metal vibes and you can almost smell the studded leather. Mix in a blistering 6-string solo and what more could you ask for? Catch it right here on your Home for the Best New Rock… W-J-O-EEEE” – WJOE – Findlay’s Home for Rock & Roll
“The second album has arrived and “Bleed For It” from Thunderor is built for power, fury and fire with no mercy. Lethal riffs everywhere, fist pumping anthems and battle cry lyrics rule this metal offering and the classic 80’s approach really make it a blast. Currently on tour in Canada with Burning Witches and compiling fans at a breakneck pace with their operatic theatrical vision of rock, Thunderor has become a significant force of modern ‘throwback’ metal. Catch tracks from “Bleed For It” on your Home for the Best New Rock… W-J-O-EEEE” – – WJOE – Findlay’s Home for Rock & Roll
“You can hear every second that the band’s album is fun” – Saitenkult

“plenty of catchy, upbeat songs” – Musika

“With improved vocals, bigger choruses, and a cinematic concept, Bleed For It promises to be the band’s most ambitious and emotionally charged release yet, recommended for fans of The Darkness, Skull Fist, Ghost, and Night Flight Orchestra. If you crave escape, adventure, romance, and danger, the band invites you to ride with them into the storm… Best moments of the album: Bleed For It, Get ‘Em Counted and Streets of Fire. Worst moments of the album: None.” – The Headbanging Moose

“Opening track “Pump Up The Volume” has Heavy Metal written all over it” – Metal Temple

“The album is full of surprises, taking the cake “Cape Breton Home”, placed in the center and inviting ballroom dancing with its country air. “Streets Of Fire” also has a different air, with a very Queen-like guitar, a feeling that increases to the brim in “In The Fire O’ The Heat”, the song that closes the album and where the influence of Mercury’s band is more than evident. The instrumental “DreamQuest” with that synth load also breaks the mold. Keyboards, melodies, songs with the air of an anthem and ultimately a journey of sounds behind the heartfelt lyrics that tell the story of “Thunderor The Musical” (the musical theater production of which the album is the soundtrack). “A story of tireless adventures and wild romance, in the face of danger and mortality”. Thunderor breaks the mold.” – Diary of a Metalhead / Diario de un Metalhead

0 THE DIVINE PROJECT Set To Perform at NXNE (Toronto) In Support of EP “Rebirth”

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – June 9, 2026

THE DIVINE PROJECT Set To Perform at NXNE (Toronto) In Support of EP “Rebirth”

L-R – Derek ‘DRock’ Boshkov (Bass), Ro Stevens (vocals), Eric Divine (Guitar), David T.Anselmo (Guitar), Mitch Greenham (Drums)

Ontario metal force The Divine Project continues its explosive rise with their next performance at NXNE 2026 in Toronto on June 11th at The Bovine Sex Club (https://www.nxne.com/2026-artists/the-divine-project), further cementing their reputation as one of the most compelling heavy acts emerging from the GTA.

The showcase comes after performing at The Great Escape Festival (The Alternative Escape stage) in Brighton, UK, on May 15th at The Fiddler’s Elbow, marking a major international milestone for the fast‑ascending Canadian act that continues its surge of momentum, including a successful March run supporting Selias, plus shows alongside Eyes Set To Kill, Black Satellite, Awake At Last, Sumo Cyco, and Escape The Fate.

In additional news, The Divine Project has released its newest lyric video for “The Longest Night,” the sweeping, emotionally charged closer to their 2024 EP “Rebirth.” The track stands as the EP’s most expansive moment, a cinematic build from unease to catharsis, blending tension, heaviness, and the band’s signature mix of 2000s metalcore, dynamic vocal storytelling, and rhythm‑driven movement.

Lyrically, “The Longest Night” follows a soldier confronting the truth behind a cause built on deception. It isn’t a pro‑ or anti‑war statement, but a human one, a reflection on vulnerability, exploitation, and the moment clarity arrives too late. The title itself was chosen only a day before the EP’s submission, an instinctive decision that ultimately captured the song’s emotional weight.

Everything The Divine Project is doing in 2026 supports their acclaimed EP “Rebirth,” a four‑track onslaught of technical precision, emotional weight, and unapologetic heaviness. Across The Revolt, Ruins of Truth, Don’t Startle the Murder, and The Longest Night, the record moves through themes of resistance, collapse, danger, and endurance.

Musically, “Rebirth” fuses metalcore, djent, nu‑groove, and progressive elements while maintaining a sound fans struggle to categorize, but instantly recognize. Its artwork, depicting an angel forming from dust, symbolizes the band’s emergence into a new era.

“The name ‘Rebirth’ is inspired by our new line‑up and era… The angel forming up from dust represents breaking through the void,” says guitarist David T.Anselmo.

“Rebirth” marks the official refurbishment of The Divine Project, now powered by frontman Ro Stevens, founder/guitarist Eric Divine, lead guitarist David T. Anselmo, bassist Derek “DRock” Boshkov, and drummer Mitch Greenham.

“We set the goals to reintroduce The Divine Project to the world as a faster, heavier, and more complex band… Rebirth is our new beginning and our way of saying The Divine Project is here to stay,” adds the band.

Known for explosive live shows and genre‑blending musicianship, the Ontario heavy‑music staples aim to bring underground heaviness into the spotlight. Their writing process is a collaborative “hot potato” of ideas, and everything on Rebirth was performed live with no essential backing tracks, a commitment to authenticity and raw performance.

The band entered the studio in April 2026 to begin recording the follow‑up to “Rebirth.” While still unmistakably TDP, the next EP will explore darker, more emotionally lonesome territory.

Recommended for fans of Trivium, Killswitch Engage, Static‑X, Linkin Park, and All That Remains, “Rebirth” was released on November 28, 2025, and is available at the following links:

“… I’m simply left wanting more. Not from the track itself, but from an EP whose tracks each bring their own texturally layered elements, all melded together in an extraordinary Extended Play recording.” – Jay Broderick, LoudTO, 2025

“You know a band is special when they have a truly unique sound. Those were my thoughts when I gave this EP a listen.” – “Metal” Mike, @black_kross_zine, 2026)

“With a mix of styles and a strong DIY approach, The Divine Project are a band to keep an eye on as they continue to grow beyond the Toronto scene.” – Dayna Szymanski – This Day In Metal

“The Divine Project may not look traditionally Metal but boy can they break it down! ” – Blast Toronto

“The name of their 2025 EP Rebirth is fitting. This album feels like an evolution for the band… Every song has its own distinct identity, albeit with a strong family resemblance of sound…. Ro’s vocal range is wide, able to give you everything from low guttural screams to rich, neo-operatic tenor melodies… It’s an absolutely captivating blend of feral, unrestrained energy and beautiful vocal tone…” – FalseChord

“Coming out to a packed crowd, the songs off Rebirth came to life under the stage lights, signalling a new era for the band… To see them live, expect a high energy set, a rowdy crowd, and some heavy ass music.” – FalseChord

“You ever watch a band and realize halfway through that there’s no safety net? No laptop running stems, no hidden tracks filling the gaps, just five people in a room making every sound you’re hearing with their actual hands? That’s The Divine Project. Ontario. “Rebirth” EP.” – Papy Jeff Metal

“Canadian band The Divine Project released the EP “Rebirth” back in 2025, and this is a production that might be of interest also for fans of progressive metal. Initially we are presented with a band that gleefully enters a more hectic and borderline chaotic landscape of extreme metal oriented escapades, with gruff, distorted vocals and a high level of intensity. But as this EP unfolds one does notice that we get an array of changes and alterations in tempo, while the gruff vocals alternate with a more aggressive hardcore style of delivery as well as clean and melodic vocals in a controlled and more powerful mode of delivery. More delicate interludes and strikingly melodic ones at that too starts entering the framework, and the end result is both varied and at times rather unpredictable. A production to seek out by those who enjoy an expressive band that makes use of powerful and dramatic high intensity statements but also gentler, melodic and atmospheric laden side steps, taking on the metal universe in a manner rather close to a contemporary progressive metal expression on occasion.” – Progressor

“A huge like from me. My take on the EP: From the 1st track till the last one you are taken on a metal roller coaster ride with no breaks. Every song is masterly crafted and performed. This is a killer EP and if you haven’t got it yet, you are missing out on Top tier musicians at their best. Rebirth get a massive yes from me and is on my personal playlist.” – Project Metal Music
