Rockshots Records: ANGEL BLACK Posts New Music Video “Black Heart”

Debut Album “Killing Demons” Out March 22nd

Rising out of Phoenix, Arizona, ANGEL BLACK will be releasing their debut record “Killing Demons” via Rockshots Records. As the band blasts into their first single “Black Heart”, one thing is clear, nothing is subtle about ANGEL BLACK. Big sound and melody set the mood for this classic heavy metal band. ANGEL BLACK doesn’t look to re-invent heavy metal, they clearly go after their fans with an aggressive assault for the ages.

Watch their debut music video “Black Heart” at the following link: https://youtu.be/5sVU4QIdXgs

The band comments on the upcoming debut:

“The concept of Killing Demons is that everyone has some kind of demon. Money, Drugs, Sex, Power. They can all be a demon if you let them. We feel we touched on a lot of them with the songs on the album. Strikeforce, touches on the armed forces that keep us a free world. Cyber Spy, talks about how much we let government into our private lives. Black Heart, is about those evil women that take you down. We play honest pure heavy metal from the heart and we think that Angel Black will be well received as a band that gives the fans what they expect. Music that you turn up loud and play over and over again.”

“Killing Demons” will be released on March 22, 2019. Album pre-order available on Rockshots Records here.

Track Listing:
1. Strikeforce (5:44)
2. Cyber Spy (4:40)
3. Death Mill (7:41)
4. Black Heart (4:19)
5. Killing Demons (4:56)
6. The Dream That Stood Alone (5:16)
7. Killing Me (3:43)
8. Metal Gods (Judas Priest Cover) (4:50)
Album Length: 41:12

About:

Angel Black was formed in 2013. The band got together with one thing in mind, to write powerful riffs with a classic metal feel. The band’s influences are steeped with the legends of heavy metal. From the opening riff of “Cyber Spy”, the first song the band wrote together. One thing was certain you don’t hear this type of metal, played with conviction, precision, and fire often.

Angel Black plays from the heart, forging their own brand of Heavy Metal. No Gimmicks, No Fads and No Fear of what they face in the ever-changing music industry. Their debut record is titled Angel Black “Killing Demons”. The title is fitting to all, we’re all fight something every day of our life.

The record was “Mastered” by well known Mastering Wiz, Nathan James at Vault Mastering. Nathan has Mastered many of the “hits” you hear every day on the radio. Nathan is well known and respected from his days as a mastering engineer at the World Famous Hit Factory in NYC.

The band has also written and recorded the song “Killing Me”. The song has been submitted to an upcoming movie under the guidance of the “legendary” Guitarist Freddie Salem, a one-time member of what was known as the Guitar Army, “The Outlaw’s”.

ANGEL BLACK is:
John Cason (Vocals)
Mike Jelinek (Guitars)
Carl Strohmyer (Bass)
Daniel Beck (Drums)

Aamamata is an experience that oozes with desolation and gloom, yet still provides that slightly uplifting feeling at the end of the day. Bone-crushing riffs that reverberate with emotion join up with some more introspective moments (see “Goodbye, Hope”) to bring in the contrast that bands like Daylight Dies and Novembers Doom have done so well, yet the structuring of both gives Helevorn a little wiggle room to reach for their own sweet spot.

BLACKGUARD Announce New Album “STORM” Coming In 2019 + First Show In Four Years In Toronto

March 22 – Coalition – Toronto, ON w/ Crimson Shadows

Seminal Canadian melodic death/folk metal band BLACKGUARD announces their first show in over four years as well as their plans to independently release their long-awaited fourth studio album “STORM” in 2019 to follow their 2011 full length “Firefight” on Victory Records and 2009’s “Profugus Mortis” released on Sumerian and Nuclear Blast.

The band made the following announcement via their facebook page.

“It is with great pleasure that we can finally start sharing with you our plans for this year! We will be playing our first show in four years at Coalition in Toronto on March 22nd with CRIMSON SHADOWS (Napalm Records) and BOREALIS (AFM Records)! This will be one hell of a fun show with some of our oldest friends so come out and make this a night no one will forget.

Details / pre-order info for our new album “STORM” will be revealed in the coming weeks and of course, some new music for everyone to sink their teeth into. It’s been a long time coming, but we’re finally here so stay tuned!

We would like to take this time to thank all of you from the bottom of our black hearts for your continuing support for this musical entity that has been such a huge part of our lives for so long. This next chapter in our history is a return to our roots, we’re going at this alone again without the shackles of business obligations that brought us to the brink in the past. This is a labor of love beyond the typical metrics of “success” or “failure” and sharing this piece of us with you is our apotheosis.

And finally, for those who don’t know how this all began….

Our out of print first record “So It Begins…” under our original name “Profugus Mortis” is now available for download on our Bandcamp page (https://blackguardmtl.bandcamp.com/album/so-it-begins-5) for 5$. It’s a trip to hear the band’s evolution to what we are now and we hope you will enjoy this glimpse into our history.

Thank you all.

For fans of Draconian, Swallow The Sun, Paradise Lost, Woods of Ypres

Spanish Doom Metallers HELEVORN Posts New Lyric Video “Nostrum Mare (Et deixo un pont de mar blava)”

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 “Nostrum Mare (Et deixo un pont de mar blava)”, which is sung in eight different languages. The video is in support of their fourth album “Aamamata” due out this Wednesday, January 23rd via Solitude Productions / Bad Moon Music.

Check it out at https://youtu.be/5Yw7akleTPQ

Vocalist Josep Brunet explains the track:

“This is a song about what our Mediterranean Sea was and what is nowadays… I mean, during the past times it was a sea to share, to grow, of course, there was a lot of wars, but it was our true nation, of all of us, so in this song appears eight different languages of our big cultural area (Greek, Maltese, Spanish, Arabic, Catalan, Italian, French, and Hebrew), and we had our friends and fans of the band do the vocals on it.

The lyrics for it are from a poem by Catalan writer, Miquel Martí I Pol, translated into these eight languages. The melodic vocals done by Julia Colom too are really awesome; we had goosebumps on our skin when she was recording her vocal parts. Very epic, gothic and very deep.”

“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 adds:

“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).

Vinyl and CD pre-order of “Aamamata” on HELEVORN‘s online store here and Solitude Productions here.

“A lot of really cool stuff comes from Canada. Poutine, Tim Hortons, the REAL A&W, mountains, moose, and lots of really sick metal bands. Some of my favorite metal bands are actually Canadian: Archspire, Beyond Creation, Beneath the Massacre, and Gorguts to name a few. Hailing from Ottawa, Ontario, Misshapen continues with the trend of high-quality Canadian metal in their brand new music video for the track “The Swarm” off of their upcoming EP Transcendence. This track features a really cool and unique blend of technical death metal, black metal, death metal, and melodic death metal. Really digging the vocals and the visuals in particular with this band. It is somewhat reminiscent of my favorite years in Dimmu Borgir’s sound.” – GearGods

“MISSHAPEN have created a powerful set of five tracks. They’re fast, melodic, technical, layered and heavy. It’s like if you took the melody and atmosphere from AETHEREUS’s “Absentia” and mixed it with the riffage of VALE OF PNATH’s “The Prodigal Empire”. That’s MISSHAPEN’s “Transcendence”. I look forward to a full-length.” – Metal Temple

“The debut five-track EP Transcendence by Ottawa, Canada’s Misshapen, is worth adding to your collection of music that will get you hyped. There is no shortage of energy and blast beats to help revitalize your soul with this blend of death metal, technical metal, and black metal. The melodic riffs and solos are almost enchanting while the vocals are ferocious.” – The Music Below

“Blending death and black metal with technical and symphonic stuff, Canada’s Misshapenknow what they’re doing.” – Loud Unity

“Their melodic death metal is certainly rooted in the mainstays of the genre, but Misshapen are more on the technical side of the spectrum, making this is little less “catchy” that what one would expect, but potentially more interesting to musicians. They put a lot of emphasis on the melodic aspect of their music, mostly highlighted by quite a bit of clean, melodic vocals while still remaining heavy enough to keep things on the right side of the fence.” – The Metal Crypt

“a very great sounding melodic, technical and symphonic mixture of black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. ” – A Different Shade of Black Metal Zine

Hailing from Ottawa, Canada, Misshapen are a diverse and melodic metal band blending elements of death metal, technical metal, and black metal. Their debut EP ‘Transcendence’ was released earlier this year February 8, 2019.

Capturing the attention of audiences since 2016, Misshapen seeps melodies with harsh vocals, further ignited with technical riffs and meaningful lyrics. ‘The Swarm’ is the most ferocious track on the EP and would be recommended to fans of Ne Obliviscaris, Children of Bodom, At the Gates, and Dimmu Borgir.

‘Transcendence’ an adventurous, dark and distinct five-track EP that brilliantly showcases the band’s influences while synchronizing and utilizing each member’s special ability as a musician.
