For fans of Wage War, Whitechapel, Periphery, Architects, Spiritbox

“Lyrically with Death Rectangle I wanted to make songs that anyone could very easily imprint their own life into. These songs all have deep meaning to me but we strayed away from using any specific references so that the listener could make it whatever their imagination wants it to be. We think that is the best way to make a song. Musically this collection of songs is mostly dark and heavy sounding. It wasn’t intentional, but like we’ve said before, when this was written we were all locked up and lost our jobs, and had to watch the world riot and go nuts so we’re not surprised it sounds that way.” – Draemora

“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)

“LEGION OF SCUM, with its dynamic and pressing drums and sharp riffing, surely one of our favorite tracks.” – HardRockHeavyMetal (Review Awakening EP 2020)

===============================================

STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS ABOUT THE BAND

1. On these recordings the band made a decision from the beginning to stray away from sounds that were “safe” to construct the building blocks for the album. Two big inspirations for the sound of the mixes were from Lamb of God’s third release “Ashes of the Wake” and Whitechapel’s last release “The Valley”. We wanted a dry, raw, “real” sound for these songs so that it didn’t feel so exhausting to listen to the same snare sound and guitar plugin that everyone on earth uses. We also left mistakes in there and resisted the urge to edit everything perfectly, although it is played to a click and there is definitely editing, we tried to be tasteful while making decisions about what to fix and what to leave alone. We felt that a good song is a good song and we should steer away from concentrating too much on sounding like everyone else and let our songs speak for themselves. There is a bit of production on these but we did our best to keep a lid on it.

2. Everything in the recordings was recorded at Terry’s house upstairs in his home studio. He also mixed and mastered this time instead of having an outside source help (as opposed to the EP).

3. Death Rectangle originally going to be called, “Summoning the Wretched” and the album was going to be called “Slaves Until Death” until a few months before us finishing the album.

4. We added the song “Victorious” to the end of the album at the last minute. The whole song was written right after Terry got a new 7 string guitar that was tuned to drop G and wrote the whole song in an evening. The entire song was written in just a few days and was originally going to be a single to release during the pandemic, but we all thought that was lame and that we should release the whole thing right now. It’s not like we’re gonna lose a bunch of money if we don’t and we are already working on the next full length, so we’re not worried anyway.

5. In “The Cleansing”, the song starts and ends with an intense chug pattern that starts with the guitar and then joined by the bass and drums. This syncopated rhythm at first glance may seem nonsensical but has defined repetition points as the riff progresses. This song was in the works earlier on in the writing process of the album, so when it came to working on this part as a group, it was a great test of our ability to work and perform with one another as it relies heavily on everyone being on the same page for an extended period of time. Initially, it was quite a challenge to accomplish however with time and practice it has become in some ways a staple of our practices and to strengthen our trust in one another to be in the pocket as a unit.

2020 – Awakening EP

Draemora was formed in November 2019 in the Seattle, USA area by Terry Jenkins (vocals/guitar) after his separation from his previous band Odyssian. Seeing it as an opportunity to take a chance and try something different, he wrote a handful of songs with lyrics and demoed them out at his house. These demos attracted the attention of soon to be bandmate, ex-Jesus Wears Armani drummer Jared Conelie and ex-Odyssian vocalist Taylor Wood.

After fleshing out the demos with their own personal touches on the songs, Jenkins found local guitar player Max Taylor and set out to record the 5 song EP “Awakening” that was debut during June 2020.

The EP was nothing short of heavy, melodic metal infused with honest and heartfelt lyrics. This combination worked perfectly with the band’s mission to evoke an intense emotional and spiritual experience that brings out the raw emotions that are suppressed all day in normal day-to-day lives.

With a slight pause in the band’s plans due to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, Draemora has just completed their follow-up full-length “Death Rectangle” planned for release on June 18, 2021, a full year since unleashing their introductory EP “Awakening”.

On this new album, Draemora has truly explored an evolution from their previous release. Musically, the collection of songs are mostly dark and heavy sounding. It wasn’t intentional, but when the band was writing the new record, they were all locked up and lost their jobs due to the Covid-19 pandemic, along with watching their hometown riot during George Floyd protests. The songs all have deep meaning to the band, but they strayed away from using any specific references so that the listener could make it whatever their imagination wants it to be. They think that is the best way to make a release.

The band adds:

“We are really finding our sound on this album and where we all fit together and the two singles on here were so obvious to us because they sounded so good as demos. We could tell instantly that “Death Rectangle” was a single, it’s got a catchy riff, pounding drum parts and a chorus that we hope everyone will join in on when we can eventually play it live. Our planned second single “Victorious” is exactly the same way. We were going to actually separate it from the album and let it be a song on its own, but at the last minute, we decided it was the perfect way to end the album, because it has that great classic formula in there with a twist to the parts that really puts our stamp on it in a great way. Our main goal in mind for this release was that we wanted people to enjoy it live, so we made big choruses and really big recognizable parts that made us feel great when we were writing the whole record. It’s 10 songs that we all felt were nothing but bangers, we don’t put filler on anything, if there were only 8 good songs out of 50, then the album would be 8 songs and that’s that. As far as the next thing, we’re already working out new stuff as we’ve finished this so hopefully next year we’ll be back with another full length, that’s the goal at least.”

“Death Rectangle” is due out on June 18, 2021 and will be available on all major digital platforms.

Release: July 25, 2021

L-R – Shaharyar Hamdani (Vocals, Guitar), Yousuf Masood (Guitar, Bass), Omair Soomro (Drums, Lyrics)

A nostalgic, melancholic revival of influenced 70’s prog, 90’s grunge, and South Asian classical music, Songs of Petrichor has fused a refreshing sound from the Middle East. With all members of the band being multi-instrumentalists, the crafting of songs has always taken an interesting approach with each of them having mutual respect for each other’s instrumentation.

Admitting that they are first and foremost a live experience, Songs of Petrichor’s true chemistry comes to life when adding improvisation to their stage performance, but in the meantime, with lockdowns around the globe, they feel it is necessary to allow the public to enjoy their sonic adventures online until then.

Songs of Petrichor’s goal with their forthcoming record is to take listeners on a journey of rain-induced sentiment, strong emotions, and adoration for the classic yet modern love of rock.

BAND STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS

1. The band likes to joke about how Songs of Petrichor was actually started in the corporate world. I (Omair) had a review meeting with the COO of the Company after the successful completion of a project. As the discussion turned surprisingly informal towards the end, I was asked “So what do you do outside of work?”. Upon finding out that I am a musician, I was told “Take this number and call this young man who is very dear to me”. I got a business card on my Whatsapp named “Sheru Jeddah”. Later on, I found out we both were asked to contact each other which we did. We had an awkward phone call where Shaharyar told me he loves the Beatles and we had a common friend from back home who had passed away recently. Hesitantly, we decided to meet up at a mutual friend’s place as a formality which I was personally dreading as it was just for the sake of meeting up. Turned out I finally met a musician with whom I share a broad range of similar musical taste. Oddly, we were both listening to Ravi Shankar while driving to the same location to meetup. For one we were both die-hard Zeppelin fans. Later, we created Songs of Petrichor.

2. Shaharyar and Omair started the music much earlier on around July 2019 and named the band ‘Petrichor’. The missing element was Yousuf, who joined the band around October 2019. He was the final jigsaw piece. We changed the band name to ‘Petrichoir’ as ‘Petrichor’ was taken by a strange DJ and also because Shaharyar was in a choir. Later on, just before the Pandemic, we changed to ‘Songs of Petrichor’. We were forced to stop jamming and writing from February 2020 to late August 2020 due to COVID19.

3. All the members are multi-instrumentalists. There are songs where Yousuf has influenced the drum ideas and Omair has written the guitar and vocal melodies. Especially while free jamming, the band members keep switching between instruments for fun. Consequently, even during songwriting, there is a lot of cross-influence as all members seem to have perspectives on each instrument.

The Boy Who Cried Wolf started their activity as two local bands from Bucharest, Romania colliding, Bogdan from CHESTER and Mihai from Breathelast), later on adding Alex (PZFI, Backstage Hero) to give it a sincere go at writing some tunes that would better react to their primal needs to play some wild, fast-paced music, inspired by old school metal combined w/ Hardcore / Punk vibes. Other sounds may occur.

For fans of Lamb of God, Megadeth, Power Trip, Testament, Exodus

“Our goal in writing music, in general, is to make our fans feel something. Make something they can connect with. This album, I think, did just that. You can listen to the album and feel the old-school influences we have, and you can also dig into the lyrics and hopefully connect with what we are saying. At the end of the day, the message that we are trying to get through with this album is that your voice can, and should be heard. All you have to do is make sure it is.” – Crawling Manifest

“The band has cut their teeth playing live with Fleshgod Apocalypse, Soulfly, Soilwork, Carach Angren, and Kataklysm, with founding members remaining members Andrew Gladu and Trevor Layton still driving the band since 2014. Fans from bands like Havok, Warbringer, Lamb of God, and Power Trip will love Crawling Manifest!” – Ghost Cult Mag

“The album is politically charged and there is a solid level of aggression in the vocals that means you can clearly hear that Gladu is fired up here, he’s not just spitting venom for the hell of it. The aforementioned “World War III” is a prime example being a f*** you to Billionaires who got there by exploiting the people who work their fingers to the bone to earn a crust from them, “Right To Refrain Silence” is a straight up fight song about the right to speak freely without being violated by the powers that be in response.” – Metal Noise

“Single “World War III” and its follow up “Nothing to Lose” then gives us something more traditionally Thrash, bringing them into line with the current wave of bands like Hazzerd, Thrasherwolf and Wreck-Defy that have more than a lethal dose of 80’s nostalgia to them. Both deliver the killer solo that puts the band firmly into the Megadeth bracket of styling with Gladu’s gruff bark giving everything a clenched fist approach, a neat tempo change in the later bringing the house down with a full throttle onslaught.” – Metal Noise

“Radical Absolution has plenty of blistering songs – forceful, aggressive, and potentially explosive to charge up the right patrons.” – Dead Rhetoric

“The overwhelming triumph of this record are the quality of riffs. They come thick and fast and we are never far away from a fresh one.” – The Razor’s Edge

“You want thrash, you get no-frills thrash. This record also feels very honest, and gives the listener exactly what’s on the tin. Speaking of those riffs, they bring great pleasure. Crawling Manifest reveal their talent in writing short, punchy statements and drilling them into the listener’s head.” – Metal Utopia

“If you are into blistering lyrics, masterful guitar riffs, seriously “sick” drum and bass this song is for you.” – EDGE Entertainment News

===================================

BAND STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS:

1. With this new album, Crawling Manifest really dug deep into a current event/political mindset, with almost all of the lyrics reflecting on the struggles of the everyday person in the world of 2020. For example, the song “Right to Refrain Silence,” is nothing short of a fight song, with every line pointing out the failings of our leaders, and coming together in the chorus of “United we stand, divided they fall.”

2. At the beginning of the recording process for this release, “Radical Absolution” was supposed to be a four-song EP…. Then COVID happened. When we started coming out of lockdown, we met back up to go over what we had written, and how we wanted to move forward. During that we realized wait… we have way too many songs for this…. You wanna make this an album? And now we have an album.

=========================================

The album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
Musically, the album is our modern take on our favorite types of thrash metal, and how we could best blend all of them and mold them to our own vision. It’s an aggressive, hard-hitting combination of riffs, topped with equally aggressive vocals and fast, piercing solos. The start of the album is an emotional instrumental build-up to the first track, and the last track fading out to a soft, bluesy groove really reminds me of taking a deep breath, letting everything that’s been build up inside out, and then starting fresh

Track by track expalined (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
1. Land of the Free: This song was one of the last ones to be finalized. Because it’s an instrumental track, we were constantly back and forth about every note in the track. We ended up having this on here as a lead in not just because we thought it sounded cool, but because it built up an atmosphere that we wanted for the album. Something that sounded like it was struggling like it had to fight to stay alive.

2. World War III: World War III was the first song that we wrote for this album. When we sat down to talk about what kind of sound we wanted to go for, Trevor picked up his guitar and was like, “but how ‘bout this riff?” And started playing what is now the intro to World War III. We instantly fell in love and started fleshing it out more. Lyrically, this song is straight-up a “fuck you” to billionaires. People are exploited every day by people who just reap the benefits of the working class’s labor, so the only thing left to say there is, “Eat the Fucking Rich.”

3. Nothing to Lose: Nothing to Lose is one of my favorite songs on this release. It starts out with an in-your-face riff and gives you no time to recover before going right into the verse. My favorite part of this song by far is the bridge. Once it hits that groove, it hits. Both musically and lyrically. I think what really comes it up are the lines, “So have it your way, already used to abuse. Let’s have it your way, with you there’s nothing to lose.

4. Right to Refrain Silence: This is the album’s fight song, to give the listener that “get up and go” feeling. At its core, this song is designed to hit a nerve. Especially in this last year, we’ve seen far too much in the news about police violence, and that’s something that we as a band cannot support and feel the need to speak out against. We really wanted to capture this in both the lyrics and the music. There are drive and intensity in this song that pushes that sentiment. We needed this song to be just as heavy and gritty as the topic we’re singing about.

5. Radical Absolution: Radical Absolution is about how the media skews our perception of what’s going on around us and desensitizes us to the important happenings and issues of today. It all gets swept under the media rug by bullcrap, forcing us to have to look for these stories ourselves. In the foreground of this song, those who are supposed to provide leadership and guidance are handwaving everything important away. We can’t trust who we’re looking to for current events and leadership to keep us informed, and we have to truly fight for that information. The listener is meant to hear this struggle between the leaders/media and the people between the verses and the chorus.

6. Blood Born: Blood Born is a song written from the perspective of those incarcerated for petty shit. The current prison over-saturation exposes those arrested for quite often stupid “crimes” are exposed to similar or the same treatment and abuse that violent criminals live through and only contribute to a culture of “lock away and forget” that our country seems to be so fond of. The lyrics provide a pretty clear message. When the haves oppress the have nots, then this will be the start of a war.

7. Revolution: Revolution is the second single we released for this album. Functioning as another fight song for our listeners, the goal of this piece was to inspire others to make their voices heard. Being a musician makes it easy for us to speak up and be heard, but not everyone has that luxury. With Revolution, we wanted to motivate our listeners to speak up and use their own voices.

8. Onslaught: As the closer for the album we really wanted to make a statement. Onslaught at its core is a song about winning the war and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. At the end of the day, we’re in this together, and when the enemy starts crawling away, we’ll be standing at the top. Together.

About:

Crawling Manifest was formed in 2014 on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, USA. The thrash metal band incorporates elements from death metal, modern metal and core.

After multiple line-up changes, live shows, and tours, playing alongside bands such as Fleshgod Apocalypse, Soulfly, Soilwork, Carach Angren and Kataklysm, remaining members Andrew Gladu and Trevor Layton made the decision to write new music taking influence from the bands they grew up listening to and combining a love of death and thrash metal into a powerful new sound.

It starts off with a beer, which turns into a riff and it just goes from there; Gladu and Layton work closely together on all aspects of the writing process, save for when they veer off to pay specific attention to lyrics and vocals.

So far, Crawling Manifest has released two EPs “Forevermore” (2016) and “Lords of War” (2019), and the full-length “Battlegrounds” (2016). In 2021, they will release a second full-length, the politically charged “Radical Absolution” on May 14th.

“These guys…were doing double freaking leads…It was one of the most insane, incredible things that I’ve seen…it was kind of like Iron Maiden…it was inf****kingsane. Check these guys out.” ~ Keeper Magazine

“their recent studio release contains everything one could think of in a power metal group. They have the prototypical flying guitar leads, blazing fast guitar chugs, extended solo breaks and over the top vocals. What really makes this band shine is their impressive guitar work. The duo of Danny Fang and Nick Harrington, relatively new to the metal scene themselves, easily puts them into San Diego’s higher echelon of guitar players. They often trade solos in their 5-7 minute long song structures, exchange guitar leads during bridges and choruses, and are incredibly sharp.” – Metal Assault

Unleashing the rhythmic beasts with fast, aggressive, and heavy melodic passion, Nightshadow brings unforgiving committed focus to epic power metal with the rich, powerful, dynamic force in the vocals of singer Brian Dell; thunderous, exhilarated energy of drummer Sean Woodman; dominating, double lead shredding magic in guitarists Nick Harrington and Danny Fang; rounding out with the crushing, methodical thumping of bassist Chris Bader laying a secure concrete foundation.

Originally formed in 2012 by guitarist Nick Harrington who then moved years later to San Diego to connect with his remaining band members, Nightshadow pounded the stage hard at their debut show in July 2016 and quickly developed a solid reputation with enthusiastic feedback and strong positive audience responses to their metal musical efforts fused with influences of Amon Amarth, King Diamond, Slayer, Helloween, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Hammerfall, and Stratovarius.

With tight instrumentation blended with intense perfection of notes hit on point, Nightshadow further established themselves by sharing the stage with the best of San Diego’s local talent as well as opening for national acts including Appice Brothers, The Iron Maidens, Geoff Tate’s Operation: Mindcrime, Marty Friedman, Hammerfall, Beastö Blancö, and Adrenaline Mob.

“A love letter to the Goth and Industrial rock of the 80s and 90s.” – Slashdance

Album Title: Everything Goes With Black
Release Date: November 10, 2020
Label: Ancient Temple Recordings

Facebook.com/SlashdanceMusic | Instagram.com/slashdancemusic | Youtube.com/slashdance

Slashdance.bandcamp.com | Ancient Temple Recordings (Vinyl)

“Channeling a love for Pre-Punk, Post-Punk and Goth-Rock, Cadera’s debut is much more than an attempt to honour the music he loves. It’s an extension of these influences, ripped through some vintage gear with all the care dedication you’d give your firstborn.” – Grid City Magazine

=================================

The album as a whole:
A love letter to the Goth and Industrial rock of the 80s and 90s.

Track by track explained:
1. Miss American Vampire 1970 – Opening number about an actual vampire-themed beauty pageant that took place in 1970. Sets the tone early for the more post-punk aspect of the LP.

2. Everything Goes With Black – Kicks into high gear with a relentless Industrial Rock beat straight from the early ’90s. An ode to our favourite colour and a love letter to Ministry. The authentic sound of the era was recreated using period-specific samplers and vintage digital guitar effects. Most of the video was shot across Japan just before the pandemic, as well as at our studio. The video, much like the album was edited by Dan Cadera.

3. Undo The Damage – A post-punk number that would slide in easily to the playlist at your local goth club.

4. Brief Lives – The album’s most synth-heavy song, channeling heavy Brian Eno & David Bowie influences. A song about Death, the comic book character by Neil Gaiman. This album leans heavily on pop culture.

5. Killing Time – A spooky punk twister featuring 1960’s Farfisa keyboards about a board game from the early ’80s that bites children.

6. I Call It Witchcraft – Another goth punk tune, it was the first song on the album to get a promotional music video. Probably the most accessible song on the album for fans of my more established band Which Witch is Which.

7. Tactical Empathy – A catchy Industrial banger with the crunchiest synths I was able to come up with before they turned to mud. A song about how much of yourself you are willing to box in to make others happy and if it’s worth it.

8. She’s Weaponized – A song about what I assume happens when you cross your dominatrix. Ending with a bang of blazing Industrial drums and loud guitars, the only reasonable choice really!

=================================

BAND STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS:

1. This album fulfills a lifelong ambition to release an album of Goth and Industrial songs like the ones I grew up on. For years I’d amassed an arsenal of vintage gear that was used on classic albums so when the time came I could give it as authentic of a feel as I could. Using old samplers like the Ensoniq Mirage or Emu EMAX really connected me to the artists who influenced me. I use a lot of plugins and enjoy them but there’s nothing quite like the real thing that gives you that feel right out of the box.

2. The entire album was written, performed, recorded and produced by Dan Cadera. Part of this was out of necessity, the studio costs would have been astronomical given how long it took to produce. This sort of hybrid of sequencing drums and samples mixed with traditional guitar, bass, keys lends doesn’t lend itself to jamming the songs then recording, at least in my experience. You really have to create in the studio then figure out how you’d perform them with a band later.

3. It’s not common to have a mix of gothy post-punk and Industrial Rock on one album but, back in the 90’s both scenes were so small they had to crossover to survive. Both seeped in and I think it makes for an interesting blend of songs that are going to appeal to people who like both and it keeps the album from getting stale because you’re not sure what’s coming next.

4. Another balance is that despite the darker tone of the music, lyrically the album covers mostly lighter subject matter. Dark, but fun, without being cartoonish? Is that a thing? It’s what I was aiming for. Whether it’s comic books about Death, spooky board games, low-budget horror movies or vampire beauty pageants most of the songs have a fun element to them. Lyrics were the most challenging aspect of the album, you’ve got a bunch of dark songs but you’re not really a dark dramatic person so what do you do? As mentioned above I’m not the type to write black lyrics with black ink on black paper in a black room by black candlelight so this is where I landed. I’m happy with it, I think it represents what I’m about.

Slashdance is a Canadian Goth Rock/Industrial Rock endeavour by singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Dan Cadera.

Slashdance mixes a variety of influences from song to song…. boots firmly planted in early 80’s goth/post-punk on one track then buried in the relentless drum machines and guitar-heavy sounds the defined early 90’s Industrial on the next.

“This album was made with all the love and care I was capable of to write an authentic love letter to the Goth and Industrial Rock of the ’80s and ’90s. Already this early I’ve had some of the older crowd who were regular goth club-goers from that period tell me how it transported them back to that era so, in a way, I feel like it already accomplished what I set out to do. I just want to get it out to as many ears as possible and hope it will resonate with even more people.

The album mixes genres more than most, jumping from post-punk to industrial rock, then a synth-heavy track and back again. I hope that gives it a fun mixtape sort of quality that keeps it exciting for the listener from track to track. Different genres and different vocals styles all by one person which (hopefully) ties it all together.”

EPK – Escapement – Feed (2021) (single)

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

Release Date: March 11, 2021

“Feed” was the first song that Alex Nasla and Johnny Ray worked on together. It started out as a small project that took many months to complete due to their busy schedules. Johnny sent the original song to Alex, who in turn wrote the keys for it. At that point, Johnny decided to have Alex fly to Florida so they could work together on a video, along with Thomas Crane from Kill Devil Films. It came together organically and ended up being a great success!”

Facebook.com/escapement | Digital Platforms – https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/escapement1/feed

BAND STORY ANGLES / FUN FACTS

1. Alex is in the band Witherfall that is signed to Century Media.
2. Johnny is in the band 3 Headed Snake signed to Cleopatra Records. This band debuted at Bloodstock 2019 in the UK, and includes members of Ministry and Devil Driver.
3. Alex runs the YouTube channel Gear Gods along with Trey Xavier.
4. Johnny is a vocal coach at http://stellarvocals.com.
5. Alex is a manager and producer, currently managing the power metal act Helion Prime.
6. Johnny is also in the Tampa-based progressive rock fusion band The Mourning.
7. Alex is a co-owner/co-founder of Spectre Digital along with Glenn Fricker. This is a software that makes world class audio tools for musicians. 8. Alex is also an educator teaching production courses with Pro Mix Academy and on Spectre Digital.

Escapement was born on the high seas when vocalist Johnny Ray (3 Headed Snake) and keyboardist Alex Nasla (Helion Prime, Witherfall) were attending the 70,000 Tons of Metal cruise. Ray was a stagehand during the cruise, and Nasla was covering press for his company Gear Gods. They kept in touch afterward, and during the initial COVID-19 shutdown Ray sent some music he was working on to Alex. They decided to work together and make great music happen.

A few months after the songs were finished they decided to shoot a music video for their planned debut single “Feed.” Nasla flew to Florida where the music video was shot alongside Ray (vocals), Loren Whitaker (drums), Chris Massie (guitar), and Brandon Delpino (bass). It was directed by Thomas Crane of Kill Devil Films.

The name Escapement comes from the movement of a mechanical watch. It symbolizes winding the group’s love of cyberpunk aesthetics and steampunk design together with a purpose of the escapement, which is maintaining balance. This name greatly represents the project aesthetically and spiritually.

Escapement is a force of lyrical/vocal prowess, atmospheric yet technical keyboard work, dark and heavy guitars, and banging drums. This year in 2021 there are plans to release new material including singles, music videos, and the writing of an upcoming debut album. As the world returns closer to normal, fans can expect a band that sounds as great playing live as it does recorded.

France’s Pathfinders are ready to make first contact with the landing of their debut album “Ares Vallis” via label Music-Records on April 16, 2021.

Just like the NASA space probe “Mars Pathfinder” that their name is originated from, Pathfinders are embarking on an encounter of the metal kind. Entering the “Ares Vallis”, the band is rooted in a primary sound of groove metal, but introduces fans into an astronomical discovery of twelve tracks assembled with progressive, thrashy, djenty and melodic tones.

The band adds:
“We are fascinated with space exploration, especially following recent odysseys to the red planet. We believe it may be the next step in humanity’s evolution of uncovering what this universe holds. This is an album of us telling stories on adventures to and from Mars.”

The band’s lead single “Damned Earth” was released earlier this year, and it immediately crushes everything in its path, leading an assault with speed and breakdowns, along with a tinge of hardcore tendencies mixed with accelerating quantum force.

Fans of bands such as Lamb of God, Periphery, Parkway Drive, and In Flames will be intrigued to enter the undiscovered metal terrain that Pathfinders are offering up.

Pathfinders was formed in 2018 and consist of the Gaucher brothers Jérémy(Bass) and Romain (Guitar) with Jérémy Barthélémy (Drums), Benjamin Daguet (Guitar), and Clément Levy (Vocals).

Fun Fact: The album title “Ares Vallis” is named after an outflow channel on Mars, which appears to have been carved by fluids, perhaps water.

“Ares Vallis” will be available on all digital platforms via Music-Records on April 16th, 2021.

EPK – Devilz By Definition – The Bitter Remains of Human Consumption (2021)

For fans of Lamb of God, Pantera, Parkway Drive, Kreator, August Burns Red

“This EP represents the world we live in and the changes that are tearing us apart as individuals. It is also about the unity that music brings into this darkness.” – Devilz By Definition

EP Title: The Bitter Remains of Human Consumption
Release Date: April 20, 2021

“the Groove Metal crowd will eat this up ” – Metal Temple

“The self-described groove metal group deliver a brutally heavy but epic sound throuighout their latest release. ‘The Bitter Remains’ is a stirring tune and this energy steps up again in standout track ‘Peace by Piece’. Finishing with a grand climax is ‘Time Is Near’ which showcases a theatrical sound akin to past closing tracks from Lamb of God and Parkway Drive. A short but sweet heavy metal booster!” 4/5″ – RAMzine

“a slice of what Devilz by Definition are about and what they are capable of, the three tracks of ‘The Bitter Remains of Human Consumption’ hit the mark. We’re given a slab of highly engaging and well-crafted groove metal that will appeal to a wide cross-section of metal fans. It’s a glimpse of what more is to come from these guys and will certainly generate some excitement for future releases.” – Uber Rock

“‘The Bitter Remains of Human Consumption’ ” it’s worth to check out ‘The Bitter Remains of Human Consumption’. Groove meets riffs meets heaviness, that’s the world of Devilz By Definition. 8/10″ – Markus’ Heavy Music Blog

“This is the sound of a band on fire and in one hell of a groove. Rolling drums, energetic guitars and vocals delivered in a deep growl, is sometimes all you need. Especially when they are put together in such a fine package as this track is. A hard hitting track (Peace By Piece) both lyrically and musically.” – Backseat Mafia

“Devilz By Definition creates the kind of heavy powerhouse that fans of the style will love in a heartbeat. This is highly recommended metal – don’t miss it.” – Real Gone Rocks

“Their brutal and rather modern style of Thrash and Groove is a delicacy for the moshers and the headbangers.” – MangoWave

“All these songs are full of emotion and anger, but I also hear a lot of hope. Despite singing about “the bitter remains of human consumption”, these Devilz by Definition clearly believe that a change can be made, if we stand up and fight. They believe that music can unite us under the DBD flag and that their army can win the day. So maybe this EP is more about optimism and hope rather than bitterness and defeat. Maybe this is about a better tomorrow.” – Belgian Metal Shredder

“They pulled in the most crowd response of any group who performed that night, encouraging moshing and headbanging from those assembled. The band members themselves were all over the stage, hair flying and scowls shooting from every direction. Devilz also introduced the audience to a new track entitled “Trainwreck“, which opens with a very well-performed imitation of a locomotive picking up speed before getting into some surprisingly funky riffs and ultimately flowing into the expected heavy metal sound.” – Metal Nation (Live Review 2018)

“Devilz By Definition have certainly made a name for themselves in the local scene. They are known for fast paced, tight, super energetic shows, this group of hardcore thrashers make a party out of every performance.” – Windsorite

“These guys seemingly came out of nowhere last year and have mercilessly released their aggression on the metal masses of Windsor like a war between thunder gods with M60′s. They’ve come a long way and have kept a loyalty to a lot of the other bands that came up with them, playing a lot of same bills to help raise awareness for a lot of up and coming bands and giving them some great exposure.” – The Windsor Zene

Initially formed in 2010, Windsor, Canada’s Devilz by Definition is a band reborn many times, in many ways, and has always come back stronger and heavier than the last time. No obstacle has stood in their path to date and none will, these are driven and hard-working musicians with a passion for the live show. Their energy both on and off the stage is unique and captivating.

The formation of the band happened completely by accident. Popz Munro was just learning how to play guitar and jamming with friend Timguy when they decided to add more friends to the gang. After a couple of months, they were offered a show and they fell in love with performing live music. Since then they have shared the stage with bands such as The Faceless, Revocation, Cryptopsy, and Beyond Creation and appeared at several regional festivals.

With a constant revolving door of members and instrumental position changes, the band has changed drastically over the last decade. From punk/thrash in the early years to more of a refined metalcore/groove sound in recent releases.

Since their inception, Devilz by Definition have released two EPs, “Blood Drawn” (2010), and “Rape of a Czar” (2014); a full length “The Devilution” (2016) and have another EP “The Bitter Remains of Human Consumption” expected in 2021.

=========================

The EP as a whole:
“This EP represents the world we live in and the changes that are tearing us apart as individuals. It is also about the unity that music brings into this darkness.”

Track by Track explained:
1. Bitter Remains – The song is about the powers that be in control of a dying breed on the edge of extinction
2. Peace by Piece – The pieces of ourselves that sometimes get lost along the way and the effort at putting them back together Peace by Piece. In essence, life is a puzzle and we are all the pieces.
3. Time Is Near – Time is near represents the awareness of the phrase “life is short” and puts the listener in a place of urgency on the aspect of the timeline of life itself.
