Reminder – Aug 4 – 6 – LOUD AS HELL 2023 (Drumheller, AB) w/ JUNGLE ROT, NARCOTIC WASTELAND, INCITE, NECRONOMICON, THE CONVALESCENCE and more!

LAH 2023 lineup Spotify playlist – ​https://spoti.fi/3LjJ461​

Alberta, Canada’s LOUD AS HELL returns with its most stacked lineup to date with its 2023 edition featuring JUNGLE ROT, NARCOTIC WASTELAND, INCITE, NECRONOMICON, THE CONVALESCENCE, and lots more (full lineup listed below).

Being held from August 4th to 6th at the Dinosaur Downs Stampede Grounds in Drumheller, AB, this year’s festivities see the return of American and Mexican bands joining the lineup along with artists from across Canada performing for the three-day open-air event.

Highlights for this year’s lineup witness the return of groovy death metal Americans JUNGLE ROT to Canadian soil to headline the closing night on August 6th in support of their latest album “A Call to Arms” released last year on Unique Leader Records.

Toledo, OH’s THE CONVALESCENCE is one of the USA’s unstoppable tour de force, touring Europe in 2022 with Chelsea Grin, and Carnifex plus an upcoming tour in Japan in 2023 with Exhumed and Defiled along with their latest single “No Survivors” ft. Scott Ian Lewis of Carnifex that has fans demanding more and more.

North Carolina’s Narcotic Wasteland’s (founded by ex-Nile guitarist Dallas Toler-Wade) festival appearance comes as part of the band’s first cross-Canada tour as they will be supporting their forthcoming third studio album in 2023 on Mega Force Records.

Phoenix, AZ’s INCITE, now close to 20 years into a career where everything was earned and nothing was taken for granted, the band bridges the gap between multiple crowds across various metal sub-genres. As renegade disciples of trailblazing architects like Pantera, Slayer, Sepultura, and Machine Head, INCITE raise the torch for trend-killing and hipster-smashing metal. The band’s fifth album, Built to Destroy released in 2019 (Minus Head Records), is a visceral, urgent, voracious distillation of modern metal, with reverence for the past, produced by Steve Evetts (The Dillinger Escape Plan, Suicide Silence) and mastered by Zeuss (Rob Zombie, Hatebreed).

One of Canada’s longest-running blackened death metal bands hailing from Montreal, Quebec, NECRONOMICON‘s career spans over 30 years since it was first formed in 1988 by founding guitarist and singer Rob “The Witch” in the deep, northern part of Quebec’s Fjord of Saguenay. Since then, the band has carefully released each full-length without haste, allowing them to perfect every nuance before unleashing their sonic assaults upon the masses.

What the press is saying:​
“Western Canada’s loudest heavy metal festival brings fans to town more known for dinos than drum solos.” – CBC Calgary

“Loud as Hell – one of Canada’s top underground metal festivals – was a metal family reunion. If you walked around the grounds, where tents covered the landscape like flowers, you would experience concert goers laughing, hugging and just enjoying the moment. The music played non-stop and the people were some of the best you’ll meet. What else do you need? If you’re a metalhead fan, mark it down for next year because this is a concert you don’t want to miss.” – Blackfalds Life

“Headbanger alert: Loud As Hell festival to ramp up the volume” – Calgary Herald

“Nevermind the bug spray and sun tan lotion, as August approaches Drumheller residents should stock up on earplugs.” – Calgary Herald

“Loud As Hell returns to the southern Alberta city for its seventh year and as its name implies, will rock the city to its core.” – Calgary Herald

“Loud as Hell has celebrated eight years in the Badlands to date, with acts from all over the world-shattering the peace and quiet of the hills in a camping and music extravaganza.” – Hanna Herald

“Drumheller with its dinosaur bones is the site of the annual Loud as Hell heavy metal festival Friday through Sunday. Dozens of the heaviest bands known to Man will be taking the stage, many of them Canadian” – Gig City​

Vancouver’s Hardball is ready to take you on a grunge journey of dirty riffs and speedy shredding with their debut self-titled album, which is now streaming in full at the following links:

Spotify – https://sptfy.com/Oz8v​

Bandcamp – https://hardball.bandcamp.com/album/hardball​

Lyric video – “Worried As Shit” – https://youtu.be/rza3NATHCsk​

The ten tracks deliver a heavier, punkier version of modern grunge with huge-sounding drums, and over-the-top heavy, layered guitars. Lyrically, vocalist/guitarist Scott Budgie says it helps him to think of the most distressed or agitated he’s ever felt in his life and channels those feelings of utter frustration, and confusion into his writing. There’s often some absurdity in there too as he thinks laughing at things that are too terrible to face is a coping mechanism for a lot of people. Artistically, the album covers a lot of different, but related themes. In Budgie’s mind, it’s a concept album, but it’s admittedly the most incoherent concept album of all time. It’s a deep dive into his own psyche, unturning all the different stones that maybe should have been left alone, all the while worrying about being too self-indulgent in the process. He goes on to comment on the release:

“We are really excited to finally get this album in people’s hands. There have been terrible periods of development hell and sessions of re-tracking the same parts over and over trying to get the vibe just right. It’s been a long, and at times aggravating process to get it to where we’re truly happy with it. We’re all perfectionists, especially Jeremy, who acted like the in-band producer throughout most of the process. I feel as though we created something innovative and contemporary while still honouring our heroes from the ‘90s alternative rock and ‘80s punk scenes. We’re having our cake and eating it too.”

Hardball is comprised of former Poles frontman and Vancouver local Scott Budgie, as well as Okanagan residents, drummer Jeremy Head also of The Motion Picture, and bassist Jamie Black. The album is a joint production between recording engineer Matt Roach of Rain City Recorders in Vancouver, BC (Baptists, Misery Signals, Comeback Kid) and mix engineer Felix Fung of Little Red Sounds in New Westminster, BC (Needles//Pins, Girlfriends and Boyfriends, Mode Moderne). Every Song was mixed by Felix Fung at Little Red Sounds, except for track 9. I/O, which was mixed by Jeff Black at Black Note Productions.

The self-titled album was released on July 21st, 2023 on all major streaming platforms via Distrokid, as a digital download through Bandcamp, and directly from the band on 12” LP, and compact disc. It is recommended for fans of Hüsker Dü, Flipper, and The Melvins.

“Punishingly heavy and powerful, the band members go absolutely musically berserk on this one, throwing everything they’ve got against the wall, with the song’s intensity matching the weight of its message. Gun control is an issue we hear about in the news virtually every day. HARDBALL have stepped up to the plate here with a representation of the anger many of us feel about these societal challenges.” – V13​
​
​“Vancouver’s Hardball are sharing their self-titled full-length, which will take you through the grunge journey of dirty riffs and speedy shredding.” – New Noise Magzine​
​
​“The more I listen to this album the more I fall in love with it. I was a huge Nirvana fan in my youth and this scratches that itch and then some. It has elements of all three of their albums whole also bringing plenty of their own sound and creativity to things. There isn’t a bad track on the album and I’d recommend it to anyone! 9.5/10” – Overtone Magazine​
​
​“if you do like Nirvana – then you might have a new CD to purchase!… the opener ”Just A Tree” in true grunge mode. If you on the other hand take ”Me And you” we’re in for more of a party hard rocker with a slight punk vibe. Still some grunge in it, maybe mainly for the lead vocal of Scott Budgie who sounds very much like Kurt Cobain at times. This band is furthermore more interesting to listen to, musically, compared to Nirvana. Hear the hard-working guitar playing in ”Worried As Shit” for example. Same in the quite grungy ”Talk To Me” with good variation between intense and softer parts, plus nice riffing guitars. All in all, yes: quite grunge oriented but still more than that. Well worth checking out if you’re into this type of music.” – Melodic.net​
​
​“HARDBALL is a trio from Vancouver that tries to revive this period through realistic, harsh songs and a thick and hard sound. Their first album is without doubt the most beautiful tribute to the nineties scene that we have been able to listen to for a very long time” – Metal News Fr
​
“HARDBALL brings to their music, a claw, a rather distressed and tortured atmosphere. And then around the compositions, something struck me: the emotion. It is palpable all the way, feels right away, because it feels like Scott is literally living this music. Any grunge or nostalgic fan of this era should have an ear, because this album is inspired.” – Olivier No Limit – Soil Chronicles
​
​
​“The riffs are sharp, the bass pumps the blood to the most inaccessible parts of the body and the drumming is truly outstanding. Above all, Hardball brings a sound that sounds quite melancholic and – typically grunge – is an indictment for a lot of things in the world that are firmly out of whack. Whether there is still an audience waiting for a grunge band, we cannot say for sure, although we assume that good music always finds a way. And to be honest, we are pleasantly surprised by this debut album.” – Musika

BLACK PESTILENCE Announces Western Canadian Tour Dates w/ Citizen Rage (AB, SK, MB)

New Music Video “The Devil’s Connection”

New Album “Chaotic Wisdom” Out September 2023

Calgary’s Black Pestilence announces they will be hitting the road this coming September for tour dates with Citizen Rage. The Western Canadian tour will kick off with a hometown show on September 15th at Dickens and see the two bands pillage across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, where they will wrap up the eight-date tour in Winnipeg, MB on September 23rd (dates listed below)

Black Pestilence will be on tour supporting their seventh full-length album “Chaotic Wisdom” being unleashed on September 8th.

Conjured by bassist/vocalist Valax, Black Pestilence was founded in 2008, initially as a one-man studio project that would evolve into a three-piece band and has remained in that form. To date, they have offered an impressive discography, six full-length albums, and two EPs, and now in 2023, their next studio release “Chaotic Wisdom” further expands on lyrical themes including LaVeyan Satanism, current events, social issues, and the glorification of the epicurean lifestyle.

The first single off the album, “The Devil’s Connection” is now out accompanied by a music video, which can be seen and heard below. Valax shares his thoughts on the track:

“The Devil’s Connection addresses the advantages of having an open mind. As esoteric as some scenarios might be, it will allow one to adapt to any situation. ”

Watch and listen to their music video for “The Devil’s Connection” at https://youtu.be/bhEBrCdP2ao

​

On the band’s new album “Chaotic Wisdom”, Black Pestilence sounds a bit darker and more analog. According to Valax, fans will get the same infectious sound this band is known for but with a different style of production. For example, they used various different mic techniques for recording the guitars, which added a very different overall sound. Each member of the trio spent more time recording their parts, which results in a much better performance than its predecessor.

Black Pestilence started out as very chaotic black metal with small hints of punk rock and lots of noise. After, it slowly evolved into a punk rock structure with black metal vocals. Now it is much more catchy with shorter song lengths. Their chaotic black metal ’n’ roll is recommended for fans of Midnight, Toxic Holocaust, and Impaled Nazarene.

“Chaotic Wisdom” is due out on September 8, 2023, and available for pre-order at https://blackpestilence.bandcamp.com.

Tour Dates w/ Citizen Rage​
Sept 15 – Calgary, AB – Dickens
Sept 16 – Red Deer, AB – The Vat
Sept 17 – Edmonton, AB – Starlite Room – Temple
Sept 18 – Drumheller, AB – Neighbors Pub
Sept 19 – Saskatoon, SK – D’Lish Cafe (All Ages)
Sept 21 – Regina, SK @ TBA
Sept 22 – Brandon, MB – East Side Eatery
Sept 23 – Winnipeg, MB – Bulldog Events Centre

Track Listing:
1. Mortal Rift (3:29)
2. A Life of Evil (3:06)
3. The Devil’s Connection (3:29)
4. Chaos and Carnality (3:18)

““Crushing” is indeed the first word that comes to mind when hearing the massive mauling tones of the riffs (The Devil’s Connection), like rock being excavated by some humongous machine. That machine drives forward with snapping punk beats, laced with a sinister yet glorious guitar melody. The music itself also becomes more vicious as the riffs start rapidly jabbing and then seething. But the music also channels darker and more despairing moods, before those two solos kick up the pulse and transform the music into an experience of evil ecstasy. The thing turns out to be a very catchy beast too.” – No Clean Singing

“A recent discovery that has tickled the excitement nerves in my jaded and encrusted ear drums is Calgary’s Black Pestilence. Their take on black metal incorporates old-school thrash and punk and if you listen closely you can hear the smatterings of plain ol’ rock ‘n’ roll and swaths of noise and is a sound that has been explored and nurtured since the band formed as a one-man project in 2008. The band’s handlers claim those fans of Toxic Holocaust, Impaled Nazarene, Municipal Waste, Midnight and Cradle of Filth unconcerned with genre boundaries will enjoy Black Pestilence and we have to say the nail has certainly been hit on the head in that regard. Additionally, fans of image and theatrics will find value in the band’s aesthetic which owes to a collision of black metal, goth rock and Judas Priest’s wardrobe and fashion sense. ” – Decibel Magazine

“Hail the Flesh is a nice, quick, in and out style album. There’s no messing around, there’s no overly extended bridges or songs that overstay their welcome. This is a 9 track album that only spans 34 minutes of constant, hard hitting riffs, blasts, and downright aggressive and dominative vocals. Even the final track on the album, “Ephemeral”, which nearly reaches 7 minutes in play time feels fresh the whole way through. ” – Metal Injection

“an album that really has a surprisingly wide range within the black/thrash/punk style so if you love that sort of black and roll aggressive metal, then “Hail The Flesh” will be an album for you.” – The Rockpit

“Calgary, Canada’s Black Pestilence bring a fresh take to the sound, though. Hail The Flesh, the band’s sixth full-length album is a blackened crossover punk-thrash album. It sounds old school, yet very 2000s at the same time…. Municipal Waste, Impaled Nazarene, Toxic Holocaust fans take notice.” – Heavy Music Headquarters

“They really don’t have another gear beyond ‘top’ which makes for a splitting headache of heavy but one that satisfies. After all there are only 9 tracks and as Godless spits and snarls, Frauds to the Throne exudes filthy groove, My Will to Power rages hard and Ephemeral drags the suffering out, the over-riding thought is Black Pestilence have impressed.” 8/10 – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“Honestly, anyone with the remotest interest in Black ‘n’ Thrash, Black ’n’ Roll or even just plain old Thrash is going to love this album. It is a blisteringly addictive listen. The skilfully fluid ways that all these genres are melded is both brilliant and compelling as well as being lyrically inspiring.” – MetalTalk.net

“First things first, it’s not every day you hear black metal as fun as this! That is partly because of the exciting thrash and not-so-serious punk influences, but also because the songwriting is very strong. ” 4/ 5 – The Independent Voice

“dirty, punky Black/Thrash that occasionally makes feedback noises and consistently slaughters everything in its path.” 4/5 – The Metal Crypt

NARCOTIC WASTELAND Unveils New Single “Sex Lies & DNA” – A Dark Exploration of True Crime

+ Loud As Hell Festival w/ Jungle Rot, Incite, Necronomicon, The Convalescence

Renowned metal band Narcotic Wasteland, led by the talented Dallas Toler-Wade, is set to unleash their latest musical offering, a gripping single entitled “Sex Lies & DNA”. The track showcases the band’s signature intense sound, with haunting lyrics that delve into the intriguing world of true crime. Set for release on Friday, July 28, 2023, the song is expected to captivate audiences with its thought-provoking themes and powerful instrumentation.
​
With Dallas Toler-Wade on guitar and vocals, Brett Lee on lead guitar, Erik Schultek on drums, Kenji Tsunami on bass, and Joseph Howard and special guest Andrea_N_Black on vocals, “Sex Lies & DNA” features an impressive lineup of talented musicians whose synergy produces an electrifying sonic experience.
​
The single’s production was meticulously handled by Erik Schultek and Dallas Toler-Wade themselves at Level 3 Studios, resulting in a top-tier musical composition that expertly captures the essence of the band’s unique style. In a statement about the song, Dallas Toler-Wade shared his inspiration, stating:
​
​“This song lyrically shows my ever-growing fascination with true crime. As I was working on this song, I asked myself a question. I asked myself what’s worse? A serial killer that has to ritual kill for power and control over the victim, or the husband or wife that kills their partner for a life insurance payout? It’s all equally bad, of course. The difference for me is I am fascinated with serial killers, but these other petty selfish murders like for money disgust me. While there are different reasons people kill, it all seems to stem from being a sociopath. The level of detachment and selfishness is astounding. And many of these murders, whether it be from a serial killer or more on the domestic side of things, drugs, and alcohol often play a role. Musically, “Sex Lies & DNA” showcases the band’s signature frantic tri-tonal riffing combined with an old-school speed metal/punk vibe, particularly evident in the powerful chorus chant.”

Dallas Toler-Wade’s songwriting prowess is evident as the track presents a challenging yet enthralling vocal and instrumental arrangement, featuring an exceptional guitar solo contributed by Brett Lee, followed by an impressive solo by Toler-Wade himself. The dedication to perfection even extends to the chorus, with multiple tracks recorded for the chant, including a contribution from their booking agent Andrea_N_Black.
​
To celebrate the release of “Sex Lies & DNA”, Narcotic Wasteland is embarking on a thrilling tour, treating fans across North America to their electrifying live performances. The tour will feature special guests Gorgatron and Tegmentum, promising a night of pure metal mayhem and unadulterated energy. Catch Narcotic Wasteland on the following tour dates listed below.
​
For fans of true crime, metal enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a powerful musical journey, Narcotic Wasteland‘s “Sex Lies & DNA” is not to be missed. Be sure to grab your copy of the single upon release and secure your tickets for an unforgettable live experience.

Narcotic Wasteland is recommended for fans of Vader, Death, The Crown, Autopsy, Pestilence, and Nile.

Sam Mooradian (Fallujah) Ready To Unleash Mind Bending Solo Prog Album “Bad Brain”

Sam Mooradian is a progressive metal guitarist, composer, and creator based in Boston, USA. Since starting his guitar-centric YouTube channel, Mooradian has become the touring guitarist for Fallujah, co-founded band Inhale Existence, and has launched his self-titled solo project. He is ready to drop his debut album “Bad Brain”, which is inspired, musically and lyrically, by problems in the brain. It’s very groovy and catchy, but also dissonant and jarring merging the two in an organic, enjoyable way. Mooradian shares his excitement:

“Bad Brain feels like a musical companion to emotionally difficult times. It’s the result of years of trying to hone my own sound and style of prog metal while also navigating significant life changes and events, so it’s very fulfilling to have it finally released. I’ve always been driven to push all the elements of songwriting and structure to the absolute limit while keeping the music catchy and enjoyable; I think Bad Brain does that pretty well. Lots of crazy time signatures and tempo changes. Lots of untraditional arrangements. It’s dark, it’s melancholic, and it takes some interesting twists and turns. Hopefully, it’ll break your brain a little.”

Mooradian suggests that the best way to enjoy this thrill ride of an album is from front to back. He wrote with the album in mind, and in order, and wants people to be surprised by some of the risks and turns the record takes throughout its flow.

Mooradian started on a darker, more death metal-inspired path. He had a few EPs over the years that he didn’t do much with and the 2018 EP “Depression For Breakfast” feels like the strongest predecessor to his first full-length “Bad Brain”/his current sound. Those projects have led him here, playing a sound and style that he relates to the most naturally – ultra weird, dark, experimental prog.

Weird and challenging, “Bad Brain” was written, performed, produced, mixed, and mastered by Mooradian, with a handful of guests adding flavor. It is recommended for all prog fans, especially those who like to dig into the truly unique. It will especially be of interest to fans of Plini, Gorguts, and Animals As Leaders.

“Bad Brain” is out as of July 28th, 2023, and available on all digital platforms.

Rockshots Records – Prepare For A Thrash Feast From Finland’s TakaLaiton’s New Album “Mindfection”

New Visualizer “Mies Miestä Vastaan”

Prepare yourselves for a thrash feast as Finland’s TakaLaiton is unleashing their debut album “Mindfection” produced by Teemu Aalto (Omnium Gatherum, Insomnium) available now as of July 28th, 2023 via Rockshots Records.

For the album’s release day, the band is sharing their latest visualizer for the track “Mies Miestä Vastaan”.

“One of the very first songs that we’re made to the album. Rehearsing this track probably started already in 2020 when we started to spin it back and forth, but Janne came up with the lyrics for it probably not sooner than 2021.” adds the band.

Watch and listen to “Mies Miestä Vastaan” at https://youtu.be/nRH7UWab-3I

​

Hailing from Finland’s far north, TakaLaiton garners a powerful melodic groove thrash-influenced attitude that is best seen in their super-energetic live shows that have always left fans with a sore neck and bruises from the moshpit. With a risk-taking thrash-fueled demeanor, TakaLaiton superbly blends fast-paced energy, and a bone-crushing groove, with melodies that can only be inspired by the dark, depressing, and frigid far-north. Not to mention the band’s lyrical onslaught, sung in both Finnish and English. Since their inception, the band has covered a lot of territories while on tour, bringing their rowdy stage presence to the Scandinavian regions, the rest of Europe, and Asian continents.

TakaLaiton has a “break the rules, exceed all limits” approach, as their name suggests; deriving from a Finnish baseball term for “swing the ball over the borders”. With that fierce frame of mind, the band has won “Heavy Metal Heart 11” a National Music Contest in Finland; and is ready to follow up their 2019 double EP “SisuKastraatio I & II” with 2023’s “Mindfection”, their first full-length that is based on today’s society, where we as people do everything to be a part of it and what’s sickening to the band is that people are ready to do anything in the name of couple minutes of fame. This album is based on this sick way our world has come to be.

“We are absolutely psyched about the album release and the fact it’s coming through Rockshots Records! We spent literally everything we had when it comes to effort on this album and the final result turned out to be magnificent with the producer Teemu Aalto. We think this will be the album that the TakaLaiton fans will consider a classic in the future. The well-known crushing sound and the rage are in there with the heartwarming melodies, which TakaLaiton fans are familiar with.” comments the band.

0 Rockshots Records – Cool Down From The Summer Heat w/ DYECREST’s New Single “Colder” Off New Album “Once I Had A Heart” Out Sept 2023

Montreal, QC – July 27, 2023

Rockshots Records – Cool Down From The Summer Heat w/ DYECREST’s New Single “Colder”

New Album “Once I Had A Heart” Out Sept 2023

With the summer heat intensifying, powerful melodic Finnish metallers Dyecrest (ft. members Metal de Facto, Thy Row, Everfrost, Kiowan Dynamo) have their single “Colder” to cool ya off and enjoy the season fun. The single is from their forthcoming album “Once I Had A Heart” due out September 2023 via Rockshots Records.

“The song is a bit older and was written by the late Kimmo Blom, who was at that point our singer. We kinda decided that “Now we’ll make a song, let’s do it!”. And I think it was only a couple of hours later when we had the song together. With the lyrics and the irresistible melodies that the song has! “

When we were thinking about what would be the best choice to be the first single, we ended up with Colder, ‘cause it’s catchy (without being cheesy! ;)) and a powerful song with a strong story!” says drummer Niko Takala.

Listen to “Colder” at the following links:

YouTube – https://youtu.be/iSWG7fZoGa0

​

Spotify – https://bfan.link/DyecrestColder

​

Dyecrest’s new album “Once I Had A Heart” features nine melodic melancholic tracks to follow their 2019 EP “The Stage Is Set” and 2018 album “Are You Not Entertained?”. Seven of the nine songs are brand new songs and two are a bit older but weren’t properly recorded at any point. This new record has some new “twists” in the songs, but still, the trademarks that Dyecrest is known for with their pounding and powerful anthems and strong vocal melodies with big choirs, accompanied by flashing guitar solos.

“The album overall is a tighter package than any previous Dyecrest album, and it lifts the band to a whole new level, for sure! On the album, there are some songs which have been written already some years ago (for example “Read My Mind” and “Man Made God”) as well as brand new songs, such as the title track “Once I Had a Heart”, the crushing opener “Sacred Sleep”, the bouncing and heavy “Oathkeeper” and the majestic and powerful half-ballad “Fire From Your World”, which also ends the album with it’s the heartbreaking atmosphere.” adds Niko Takala.

Guitarist Matti Pasanen also adds:

“This is the album, which in my opinion is reflecting the sound of Dyecrest in the best way so far. Heavy, yet atmospheric and also a bit progressive musical elements are combined with meaningful lyrics and intriguing melodies!

On this album we were able to build up layers, which aren’t “chewed ready for you”, but which you have to find out by listening to the songs over and over again. And those layers can be found both in compositions as well in lyrics. “Once I Had a Heart” is truly the album out of which I can honestly say that “Hey, check this out, THIS IS DYECREST!”

This time the Dyecrest-way of songwriting (meaning that we are writing the songs as they were meant purely and just for ourselves) has created the heaviest, catchiest, and also the most beautiful Dyecrest songs so far.”

The whole band continues:

“We want to dedicate this album in the loving memory of the band’s former singer, friend, and brother forever, Kimmo Blom. Kimmo sadly passed away in the fall of 2022. We feel privileged that there are three songs on the album which we have written with Kimmo, and that we had the chance of having him as one of the backing vocalists on the album. “One day we’ll meet and rock together again – there, Where the Light Was Born!”

“Once I Had A Heart” is due out on September 29, 2023.

Streaming Now! HOOKER SPIT Release Death Metal Debut “Krötch Splitter”

Canadian Tour Dates w/ Raising The Ruins, Augurium + Loud As Hell Fest, Grover Fest, CEMR Fest

Debut Album “Krötch Splitter” Out July 28th

Canada’s Hooker Spit has a unique innate competency to ingeniously present music in multiple styles of metal, all while maintaining a consistent brand, one of the factors that make this band one to keep an eye out for. With big dreams and plenty of energy to spare, Hooker Spit hopes to tour the world, bringing aggressive death metal to people from all walks of life. Their debut album “Krötch Splitter” paints a dark picture through blast beats and gutturals and the lyrical content brings raw emotion, desperation, and depths of depravity contained within the human experience. The band comments:

“We are thrilled to be launching our debut album “Krötch Splitter”. This album was a collective effort of the band to create something special for ourselves as well as you guys. Drawing from multiple metal genres such as death, thrash, and groove, we have created a sound we feel is unique and we hope others will enjoy. The concept of the album is a wide breadth of the human experience; from the highest heights to the darkest lows. There are songs that deal with self-actualization alongside others that depict cannibalism. We understand that life is a spectrum and tried our best to represent that while creating a dark ambience with our music.”

“Krötch Splitter” is seven carefully selected tracks that contain a barrage of metal elements, fast riffs, heart-pounding drums, and intense vocals. The band believes that these songs best represent the vibe they are going for and those who enjoy it can expect a lot more music in the future.

This summer, Hooker Spit will be supporting the release of the album with a Western Candian Tour with Raising the Ruins and Augurium along with appearances at Loud As Hell Fest (Drumheller, AB, August 4-6) and Grover Fest (Stirlingville, AB, August 12).

The album was produced and engineered by Hooker Spit guitarist Vlad Gligor, along with Levi Jones, and Brad Choquette; mixed and mastered by Develop Device Studios, and the album artwork was done by PaleaRaptor. They are recommended listening for fans of The Black Dahlia Murder, Blood Bath, and Carcass.

“Krötch Splitter” officially releases on Friday, July 28th, 2023, and can be heard in full via its album stream premiere on MetalInsider HERE.
