Seattle’s Draemora Present A Soundtrack For Global Riots With Title Track Off Upcoming “Death Rectangle”

New Album “Death Rectangle” Out June 18th

Tour Dates (July/August) w/ Hed PE
Draemora, hailing from Seattle, USA has a second single coming out in support of their upcoming full-length “Death Rectangle”, and they are inviting core lovers worldwide to indulge themselves with the title track now streaming on YouTube.

From the beginning, Draemora knew this song was a single, complete with catchy riffs, pounding drums, and an easy to pick up chorus that will surely be chanted at live shows. The band is really finding their sound with this release; their chemistry is apparent and undoubtedly only going to improve from here. They explain the track in their own words:

“This song is one of the heaviest songs on the album and somehow is still catchy. It has an infectious rhythm to it that just makes you feel like chugging a Monster and punching the shit out of a bunch of drywall (please resist the urge to hurt your mom’s drywall, Kyle). This one was so obviously a single from the time it was just drums and a guitar part in our demo folder, once it had these lyrics and a bangin’ ass mix it just put a big smile on all our faces. Hope you enjoy it.”

The single, along with the rest of the album was lyrically created so that each and every listener can easily imprint their own lives into them. While they all have deep meaning for the band, there are no specific references, so fans can make them into whatever they want them to be. Overall, the album is dark and heavy sounding, a reflection on the general state of the world during the writing and recording process.

Draemora is comprised of seasoned musicians who wanted to take a new musical path and go the distance into creating a sound that is intricate, catchy, and massive. They are suggested listening for those with an interest in Whitechapel, Periphery, and Architects.

The full album “Death Rectangle” comes out on June 18, 2021.

“Draemora’s new EP Awakening is a 17 minute melodic death metal piece with more twists and turns than your average M. Night Shyamalan movie. This is a band that doesn’t stick to the tradition melo-death sounds, instead looking to incorporate some clean singing, some progressive sections and some experimental sounds… This is an EP that incorporates many different sounds, but doesn’t have any filler… A very unique debut release from Draemora.” – Metal Injection (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“‘Guilt’ features the band’s penchant for mixing their brutal modern metal with glorious rock melodies! Think of a sound that meshes Gojira, Alien Weaponry, Faith No More, and the more recent era of Lamb of God, and you might begin to understand the group!” – Ghost Cult Mag (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“In this playthrough of their song “Guilt” we see Terry from Draemora ripping away with his Fender Telecaster. His tele is loaded with a single EMG 57 and he’s boosting that guy with an Ibanez TS9 going directly into his Mesa. The deadly tone of the 2-channel and a heavy rhythm hand are such a great combo.” – Gear Gods (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“A haunting, eerie melody opens “Home” with the an Allegaeon esq melodic moment before some DJent infused riffage takes hold and Wood delivers the kind of unclean vocals that leave you with 3rd degree burns on the inside of your throat. Jenkins interjects with a pair of clean sung verses over some almost Grungy Metalcore and you have a track with perhaps a trio of different styles in a single offering that works because of the cognitive tissue of the narrative.” – Metal Noise (Review Awakening EP 2020)

0 Out Now! “Pages” From Canadian Blackened Death ECLIPSER

  • May 28, 2021

  • · Eclipser · Music News

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – May 28, 2021

For Fans of Ulcerate, Deathspell Omega

Out Now! “Pages” From Canadian Blackened Death ECLIPSER

Succinct And Dissonant, “Pages” Is A Dramatic Descent Into Nihilism

New EP “Pages” Out May 28th


Top L-R – Christian Beaupre – Guitar, Sebastien Choquette – Bass
Bottom L-R – Ryan Menard – Guitar, Vocals, Chris Joyal – Drums

Ottawa’s Eclipser has unleashed their new EP “Pages”, according to the band, the creation of the heavy and melodic EP was nothing short of chaotic as they explain further in their own words:

“The writing and recording of this record were pretty chaotic and I think it comes through in the music. We had some member changes that forced us to reinvent our sound and move away from our previous release (Pathos). We finished tracking drums right before the first wave of Covid hit Canada so we had to learn to track the rest of the EP from home. There’s a good mix of aggression and melody both within the songs and from one to another.”

The recording is dissonant and according to the band, is a refinement of their sound. Guitarist/vocalist Ryan Menard who writes the majority of the music, says that his lyrical influences come from life and experiences, the way he thinks, the way he feels, or the way he views the world. The EP’s overall theme is life-denying philosophy; the lyrics are absurd and nihilistic yet existential in nature and the music is dark, heavy, and discordant with respective melodies.

Eclipser is adding this fourth release to their catalogue following Pathos (2019), Promo (2018) and Demo (2017). “Pages” is just the first round of songs they feel are ready to be heard, they have multiple recordings of material in the chamber ready to go, so stay tuned.

“Pages” was produced by Eclipser; mixed by Mike Raymond of Reverence Audio, and mastered by Topon Das (Fuck The Facts) at Apartment 2 Recording. The EP artwork was done by Misanthropic-Art.

Negative, yet melodic, “Pages” is recommended for fans of Ulcerate, and Deathspell Omega and can be streamed or downloaded at the following links:

Bandcamp – https://eclipser.bandcamp.com
Spotify – https://spoti.fi/3vuvjGI
Apple Music – https://apple.co/3fu8I7L

2. Matternaught (1:26)
3. Carry Your Burden (2:46)
4. To Never Wake Again (2:29)
5. Fathomless (4:46)
EP Length: 14:38

EP Band Line Up:
Ryan Menard – Guiatrs, Vocals

About:
A name derived from the all-obscuring sound they produce, Ottawa, Ontario’s ECLIPSER spews forth a foreboding polarity of soaring melodies and nightmarish dissonance, coiled together to create a dreadful malaise of blackened death metal promised to starve the light of everything it touches.

0 Bulgaria’s STORM Unleash Uplifting Speed Metal Single “Here I Am”

  • May 28, 2021

  • · Music News · storm

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – May 28, 2021

For fans of Helloween, Blind Guardian, Angra, Iron Maiden

Bulgaria’s STORM Unleash Uplifting Speed Metal Single “Here I Am”


Bulgaria’s Storm is releasing a new single “Here I Am”, their third one following Angel (2019) and Sulza (2020). It is a sleek speed metal offering characterized with melodic vocal lines presented often in harmonies, laid against swift tempo and heavy riffs.

According to the band, “Here I Am” is a look inward, where Mihail Bonev (bass, vocals) reflects on coping with personal problems. Compared to the other singles, which are more melodic and slow, this one is, as the band remarks, more sophisticated and accurate. They continue to explain the track:

“We are evolving in playing as well as in producing, which is great. ‘Here I Am’ is the clearest example so far of what kind of a band we are, in the sense of music. This song best reveals the essence of our music – both the lyric side and the powerful side. We really believe that it will be much liked, we already see our fans enjoying the songs very much. It’s trying to give them the full joy of real original music in the respective genres, not banal cliches or latest modern tunes.”

Initially, Storm was trying to appeal to the commercial side of music, but has now moved past that and is fully embracing the heavier music their audience knows them best for. “Here I Am” is one of the band’s favourites and they are ecstatic to finally be releasing it.

Galvanized by ambition and a desire to pave their own way, Alexander Mladenov (drums, vocals), Mihail Bonev (bass, vocals) started Storm after leaving Atlantic in 2018, they recruited Nikolay Mihaylov (guitar). Fans can expect at least three brand new original songs coming down the pipe, along with two covers of Atlantic songs.

With its promising intro and inspiring riffs, the powerful “Here I Am” is recommended for fans of Helloween, Blind Guardian, and Angra.

“Here I Am” is now available as of May 28, 2021 and can be heard on the following platforms:

“With a sound that recalls classic ballads from heavy metal monsters, their powerful song “Sulza” stays in our playlist for more than two weeks now. Storm it’s – until now – the only Bulgarian band in any of our playlists. Enjoy, cause it’s a pleasure to discover new bands from different places in the world.” – Indie Rock World

“STORM feature melodic lines, swift tempo, heavy riffs, captivating vocals and deliver explosive show performances.” – Tunebubble

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – May 27, 2021


For fans of Dissection, Carcass, At The Gates, Dying Fetus, Amon Amarth

Out Now On Vinyl! Arkansas’ PANTHEON “Age of Wolves”

Vinyl Out May 27th via Necrotic Records (North America),
Doc Records and Vidar Records (Europe), Old Shadows Records (South America)

Playing old-school blackened death thrash metal with groove elements, Arkansas’ Pantheon unleashes the vinyl edition of their first full-length “Age of Wolves”. The vinyl is now available as of May 27th from Doc Records and Vidar Records for Europe, Old Shadows Records for South America, and Necrotic Records for North America, whom the band originally unleashed the debut album digitally and on CD during July 2020. The vinyl features two exclusive bonus tracks “Arcane Oath” and the band’s cover of Black Sabbath’s “Hand of Doom”.

The band adds about the vinyl:

“Age of Wolves is an intricate merging of heavier, mid-paced poundage with the older, fast-paced death/thrash character. Its old-school styles will feel familiar and nostalgic to veteran metal fans, but does it in such a way that it feels new and fresh. We wanted to give the fans a throwback to the glory days of death metal and give them something they can headbang to and enjoy.”

“Age of Wolves” is a high-energy, brutal, dual guitar and vocal assault ready to melt faces upon first listen. It’s recommended for fans of Dissection, Carcass, At The Gates, and Dying Fetus.
