For fans of Decapitated, Morbid Angel, Soreption, Dyscarnate, Aborted

NoCleanSinging Premiere CRYPTERIA’s Lyric Video “Corrupted Text”

Debut Self-Titled Album Out Now!

L-R = Rex Kirkland – Drums, Bobby Warner – Vocals, Kevin McCombs – Bass, Austin Burleigh – Guitar

Brutal is the forte for Jacksonville’s CRYPTERIA who take the Floridian death metal tradition, snap its neck with technicality and then bring it back to life with groove and memorable riffs. Unleashing their self-titled debut album in October 2018, mixed and mastered by Denmark’s Jacob Hansen, CRYPTERIA is definitely enjoyable for fans of well-known bands in the genre, but with more poetic and philosophical lyrical content than listeners might expect with guitarist Austin Burleigh’s classic literature teaching background.

Teaming up with NoCleaninSinging.com, the band presents their new lyric video for “Corrupted Text”, a track influenced by Hume “Of Miracles” and the second half of Hobbes’ “Leviathan”. The track mocks belief in miracles and visions while noting how early Christian writers inadvertently included concepts derived from ancient pagan philosophy into their sacred texts.

Check out “Corrupted Text” at the following link: https://www.nocleansinging.com/2019/01/16/an-ncs-video-premiere-crypteria-corrupted-text/

Spanish Doom Metallers HELEVORN Posts New Lyric Video “A Sail To Sanity”

New Album “Aamamata” Out Jan 23rd, 2019 via Solitude Productions/BadMoodMan Music

Shadows of The North Canada Tour 2019 w/ Majestic Downfall

L-R – Enrique Sierra (Keys), Josep Brunet (Vocals), Will Adrift (Bass), Sandro Vizcaino (Guitars), Samuel Morales (Guitars), Xavi Gil (Drums)

Exhibiting their elegant and gloomy music around the world, Palma, Spain’s melancholic doom outfit HELEVORN have posted their new lyric video “A Sail To Sanity“ in support of their fourth album “Aamamata” due out on January 23rd via Solitude Productions / Bad Moon Music. “Aamamata” follows their 2014 album “Compassion Forlorn”, 2009’s “Forthcoming Displeasures” and 2005 debut full length “Fragments, which have anchored HELEVORN’s place in the global doom scene.

The band comments:

“We think that fans will love the new album. We know that we are not discovering something new, we are creating 90’s goth-doom metal in present times. It should be received like a piece to reborn the scene and for the music to relate on the decadence of humankind through the drama of the refugees that are dying and trying to escape from the hell that the Western countries have put them in.”

With more and more fans craving the somber tones and dreary vocals, HELEVORN has brought their dramatic intensity to many European festivals including Dutch Doom Days, Gothoom Open Air, Wave Gotik Treffen, and Madrid is the Dark Fest. They are also bringing their gloom to Canadian cities this coming May for their first cross country tour with Solitude Productions label mates Mexico’s Majestic Downfall (dates listed below).

HELEVORN’s current lineup consists of Samuel Morales (Guitars), Josep Brunet (Vocals), Xavi Gil (Drums), Enrique Sierra (Keyboards), Sandro Vizcaino (Guitars) and Guillem Morey (Bass).

Lyric Video – “A Sail To Sanity”

Music Video – “Blackened Waves”

#7 FALLEN LEGION on Top 20 July 2018 Canadian College Radio Loud Charts (Earshot)

“Downfall is an impressive effort…Their musicianship is first class…” – Hellbound

“The band brings and fuses influences from Gojira, Korn, Iron Maiden, and Dethlok with its deeper lyricism and heavier tunes. The EP has something for all metal fans. ” – Canadian Beats

“If you are interested in bands such as Veil of Maya, Between The Buried And Me, Protest The Hero then you really ought to seek these guys out. If they can produce an EP of this quality when they are unsigned just what are they going to be doing then they have a label behind them?” – Frame Music Mag

“Like a cocktail of the idiosyncrasies of metal’s greatest eccentrics, Fallen Legion’s debut EP caters firmly to fans of the weirder shades of the genre. As easily comparable at one moment to System Of A Down as it is to Between The Buried And Me at another, ‘Downfall’ blends its frenetic savagery with an underlying wackiness to satisfying effect…With multiple listens bearing increasing rewards, Fallen Legion is a name to remember for anyone whose musical tastes teeter on the edge of sanity.” – Uber Rock

“Fallen Legion have proven their aggression, established their fluidity in the metal genres and now I just cannot wait to see how they progress as a band over the coming years.” – Overdrive Music Mag

Leading up to its release, the band is hosting a live session on Facebook where they will perform their first two singles “Subterranean” and “No Privacy” along with revealing their next “Geo Engineering”.

BIO:

Hailing from Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, Canada, Backstabber is a formidable death/thrash metal trio inspired by conspiracies, new technologies, philosophy, and history. Covering a vast number of themes throughout their music, Backstabber can be likened to a ‘loose cannon’ with no foreshadowing of what direction they will take next, musically.

Starting with themes and gradually adding riffs, drums, bass and finally vocals, they pride themselves on complimenting their compositions with energetic and interactive live shows, the entire reason for them writing their music.

Eager to bring raw and fierce metal to the ears of listeners, Backstabber has recorded their first full-length “Conspiracy Theorist” set to be released February 15, 2019.

Backstabber has shared the stage with Cattle Decapitation, Depths of Hatred, First Fragment, Ending Tyranny, Insurrection, Blinded by Faith, Aepoch and more.
