NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – February 13, 2020



THE ORDER OF CHAOS Unleash Single ‘Believe In The Demon’ Off Upcoming Album “Maniacal”“Maniacal” Out In 2020


The Order of Chaos is proud to present the next single ‘Believe In The Demon’, from their upcoming album entitled “Maniacal”. This is the band’s first release in over 2 years since the release of the “Night Terror” EP and their first full-length album “Apocalypse Moon” was released over 4 years ago.

“Maniacal” is powerful, fast, to the point, hard-hitting 10 song LP full of memorable choruses and catchy hooks.

The album was engineered by Diego Fernandez at Oracle Studios and Nathan Kidd at Method Music Productions in Edmonton, AB and was mixed by Nino Laurenne at Sonic Pump Studios in Helsinki, Finland (Wintersun, Amorphis, Sonata Arctica) along with mastering done by Svante Forsbäck at Chartmakers Mastering in Espoo, Finland (Rammstein, Volbeat).

This album is The Order of Chaos’ most mature, cohesive and dynamic songwriting effort to date and the band is incredibly excited to share it with everyone who has supported them through the past 15 years as well as to all their maniacal heavy metal fans across the globe.

The second single ‘Believe In The Demon’ from the album is accompanied by a lyric video created by Brandy Black @ Lady Black Photography and Design, which can be viewed via Decibel Magazine HERE.

“’Believe In The Demon’ is the first song we wrote for this album and is quite possibly the heaviest song The Order of Chaos has ever written. It is a dark song that explores the prevalence of mental illness in modern society, and the maniacal voices we all have inside our heads.  If you have seen The Order of Chaos live in the past year or so, you have probably already heard it, as it was one of the heavy hitters in the most recent setlist.” says John Simon Fallon

“Maniacal” presents a unique and fresh sound and modern direction for The Order of Chaos and allows the band to end this era of chaos on a high note.

The album will be formally released in 2020, with several additional singles being released over the next few months.

Additional details regarding a formal label/distribution deal and future plans for the group will also be released at a later date.

1. Breakpoint (3:46)

“The Order of Chaos is one of the best bands ever to come out of Edmonton. Their show stacks up next to any international festival act” – Darryl Bowers, Boonstock Festival

“The Order of Chaos is the fucking warning that metal is still alive and that female vocalists are more than masturbation fodder. After the 3 years gone, they have not only returned, they have taken over. This is one of the best CDs of 2015. You have been warned, this is the year of Chaos.” – Wicked Channel

“Their compositions are characterized by speed, highly skilled guitar playing that reflects on the solo and the lead parts of their music and of course melody that is combined with grooves and some thrash and melodic death metal riffs.” – Nick Parastatidis (Behind the Veil)

Maudiir – Le Temps Peste (2020) (EP)

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

For fans of Skeletonwitch, Darkthrone

Release Date: February 7, 2020
Label: Self Release

Facebook | Youtube | Maudiir.bandcamp.com | Apple Music | Spotify | Google Play

Maudiir, coming from the underbelly of Montreal, Quebec, Canada is an outlet for observations on obedience and industrialization riddled with man-made waste. With 80s heavy metal influences alongside black metal and punk, Maudiir is unique in sound; hauntingly dark while being corrosive and galloping. 

Maudiir is a one-man black/thrash metal project that formed to be musically independent. Starting with guitar, F. works his way through each sullen track, adding drums, recording all the colorations and textures of the guitars, adding bass, and finally writing the words, very often at the same time they are being recorded. 

The pessimistic aura of the music combines with lyrics about consumer society, religion, science going awry, addiction to technology, and environmental decay.

The debut EP “Le Temps Peste” released on February 7, 2020 is intense dark music. Another release is currently in the works. 

F. (ex-Deeply Confused, Tears for the Dead Gods) is also currently leading prog/thrash metal outfit Trinity Blast.

““Le Temps Peste” is overall an engaging listen that, as it progresses, gets even better and more complex, gradually easing you into the building mood and feel of the EP, the first couple of tracks  “Product” and “Abuse The Used” build on bleak Blackened driving riffs alongside a vitriolic rasping vocal delivery, the latter also benefiting from more of a haunting melody developing, a galloping Thrashy second half and soaring lead work which really adds to the sound.” 4/5 – The Metal Wanderlust 

“Métal de bord en bord, ce projet fait partie de ceux dont les sonorités sont parfaitement heavy, mais ô combien inclassables, où se mêlent habilement les influences et saveurs auditives les plus diverses. Avec Maudiir, on fusionne avec brio black, thrash et death mélodique, avec une touche de métal classique et de NWOBHM dans les acérés riffs. Le temps peste inclut tout plein de riffs aussi corrosifs que galopants, qui rendraient très fiers autant un prêtre traître qu’une vierge de fer, risquant très bien de vous donner un sale mal de cou.”  – BoulevardBrutal.com

“Metal through and through, this project is one of those whose sounds are perfectly heavy, but oh so unclassifiable, where the most diverse influences and flavors are skillfully mixed. With Maudiir, black, thrash and melodic death are brilliantly merged, with a touch of classic metal and NWOBHM in the sharp riffs. Le Temps Peste is full of corrosive and galloping riffs, which would make proud a traitor priest or an iron virgin, most likely to leave you with a bad neckache.” – BoulevardBrutal.com
“En tous les cas, F. ne s’enfonce pas dans l’erreur des artistes qui bossent en solo, à savoir, s’enfermer dans leur monde et devenir hermétique à l’oreille lambda. Sa musique est bien orchestrée ; même si elle fait appel à du déjà connu, elle tient la route et on y aime y retourner plusieurs fois. Il y a, à la fois de l’agressivité, de la noirceur, mais aussi de la fluidité dans ce metal un peu vieille école, mais bien vivant!” – Metal France

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – February 12, 2020

For fans of Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Black Label Society

Rockshots Records: Australia’s GREYSTONE CANYON New Video “Keeping Company With The Dead / Astral Plane”

Australia’s GREYSTONE CANYON premiere their music video “Keeping Company With The Dead / Astral Plane” off the band’s Wild West inspired debut album “While The Wheels Still Turn” released during 2018 via Rockshots Records (EU/NA) and Hellfire Records (AU). If you’re a fan of classic metal in the vein of influences such as Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, and Megadeth, then this will be right up your alley.

Watch “Keeping Company With The Dead / Astral Plane” via GhostCultMag HERE.

“While The Wheels Still Turn” is available at the following links:

Spotify  – https://spoti.fi/2Hu4rNm

In the 70s and 80s, Australia gave the world great hard rock/metal acts like AC/DC and Rose Tattoo. Now, joining those Aussie giants of rock is GREYSTONE CANYON.

The band released their debut album “While The Wheels Still Turn” on March 9, 2018, in Europe, U.S.A, and Canada through Rockshots Records and on Hellfire Records in Australia on March 12, 2018.

The album was tracked at the splendidly named Goatsound Studios in Melbourne, Australia, and then mixed in Canada, making ‘the album a real rock n’ roll frequent flyer. Mixing duties were undertaken by none other than Grammy-nominated producer and legend Glen Robinson, who had engineered, mixed and produced equally legendary acts like Annihilator, Queensryche, and Voivod.

Inspired by legends like Led Zeppelin, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth and King Diamond, “While The Wheels Still Turn” is an album that could not only sit well beside the works of those legends, but with the current tsunami of all things the 70s and 80s inspired, GREYSTONE CANYON are in the right place at the right time. We are traveling back to the future and they are the soundtrack!

As vocalist/guitarist Darren Cherry proudly states.

“We really wanted to make an album similar to old Ozzy Osbourne record where songs like ‘I Don’t Know’ and ‘Goodbye To Romance’ can sit comfortably. This is music from the heart and soul!”

GREYSTONE CANYON is
Darren Cherry – Vocals / Guitars
Richard Vella – Guitars
Dave Poulter – Bass
Luke Wilson – Drums

“Greystone Canyon’s debut is a solid listening experience that should appeal to both fans of Western rock/heavy metal and classic hard rock/heavy metal.” – Heavy Metal Time Machine

“Inspired by classic HR legends,  “While The Wheels Still Turn” is an album that could not only sit well beside the works of those; they’re able to be so various and with a view to the futiue. With a duration of 33 min, we can find six songs and three interludes; this album won’t disappoint you!” – Hard Rock Heavy Metal Mag 

“Greystone Canyon has arrived with their debut album, While the Wheels Still Turn, and it is a beauty. A flawless homage to the bands which preceded them and inspired them, this glorious collection of kick ass tracks just teases the senses and reels you in track by track. Mammoth hooks fused with technical brilliance and that old school charm just work so goddamn well, perfectly executed and tasty like momma’s home cooking.” – Rock n’ Load Mag

 “The western rock vibe that gets While the Wheels Still Turn started sees the up-tempo Astral Plane grab the attention before In These Shoes delivers head-banging groove. The latter’s deep bassy sound is thrilling.” – Games Brrraaains * A Headbanging Life

 “While The Wheel Still Turn is a strong debut for Greystone Canyon, a fine and entertaining album classic melodic heavy metal with some interesting twists. Recommended.” – Danger Dog Music Reviews

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – February 12, 2020

(Please share the news on media outlet and social media)

Toronto – March 7th – Help Fight Childhood Cancer – ROCKERS WITHOUT BORDERS Charity Event

March 7th in Toronto is a day to mark on your calendar as The Reverend Radio Show and Neurotic Entertainment present ROCKERS WITHOUT BORDERS, a fundraiser for children with cancer at Hard Luck.

Shawn Sexton, who is behind The Reverend Radio Show on 101.5 FM The Hawk noticed an advertisement to support the Cancer Society by holding an event. He chose to specifically support children with cancer, as he puts it in his own words:

“I had to choose a specific cause within the cancer society that the funds we raise would be directed to. There seemed to be hundreds, it was a little overwhelming as I was scrolling through them. I noticed ‘pediatric research’; I’d seen full-grown adults be destroyed by cancer in my life over the years, so my exact thought was ‘imagine what it’s like for those kids going through the same thing?’”

With an outpouring of support from the community that was bigger than Sexton ever expected, the pieces quickly fell into place. Performing at the event will be recently Juno nominated Linsday Schoolcraft (solo artist, ex-Cradle of Filth), Morgan Rider and The Deep Dark River, Johnny NoCash, In Veil, Carmen North, and Vinyl Ambush. There will also be appearances by comedians and burlesque performers.

Between 2009 and 2013, there were 4,715 new cases of cancer in children 0–14 years of age in Canada, an average of 943 cases per year and between 2008 and 2012, there were 595 cancer deaths in children 0–14 years of age in Canada, an average of 119 deaths per year (source: Canadian Cancer Society). The funds raised from this event will support further research. ROCKERS WITHOUT BORDERS will also host silent and onstage auctions with prizes including autographs, band merch, art, and comic books.

The event starts at 9 pm on Saturday, March 7, 2020 at Hard Luck in downtown Toronto and the cover is $15 at the door.

Facebook event here.

MC – Ruslan Lypovsky (Profaner)

Musical Performances by:
Lindsay Schoolcraft (Juno nominated solo artist, ex-Cradle of Filth)
Morgan Rider and The Deep Dark River
Johnny NoCash
In Veil
Carmen North
Vinyl Ambush

Also Featuring appearances by:
David DJ Roy (standup comedian)
