From North Bay, Canada comes WITHIN NOSTALGIA and their gritty video for the single ‘Death Lifes’ Lover’ off their recent release “Conjuring A New Reality”.

Cold and haunting, the video shows off the band’s flair for combining styles, with a diverse mix of sounds ranging from sadness to uplifting all the while staying powerful and unique. As a live fan favourite it was chosen as their second single and ultimately a video. Going into the particulars of the track is front woman and songwriter Alyssa Broere:

“With its catchy hook and thought-provoking lyrical concept, this one is always a favorite for us to play as well. Amongst the catchiness and melody, the bridge brings forth a death metal feel that segues back into the melody.”

“Conjuring A New Reality” was released on October 5th of this year and was met with an overwhelming local response. Taking notes from bands such as Agalloch, Katatonia, and Fen; WITHIN NOSTALGIA creates a bleak melodic soundscape filled with honest emotion and aggression. The band says about the album:

“’Conjuring A New Reality’ as a whole covers much musical ground in terms of sound. Peaks and valleys emerge, evoking vast emotions. We want to create something that allows fans to expand their minds as well as think and feel life and all its highs and lows.”

Recommended for fans of post-metal, black gaze, and black metal, the video can be seen via its premiere on Bravewords HERE.

“Conjuring A New Reality” is available on Bandcamp, Spotify, and Apple Music.

Track Listing:
1. Heart In The Eye Of The Skull (8:53)

About:

Nostalgia began in the summer of 2013 in Burlington, Ontario as a one-woman project inspired by the beauty of nature and dark emotion. Alyssa Broere wrote and recorded all instruments (drums, bass, guitar, and vocals) with only demo songs released. With relocation to North Bay winds of change began to set in and the addition of two members James Ahola (bass and backing vocals) and Kye Bell (drums), a live and full sound were created. In October of 2016, they released their first EP entitled “Visions”. Chad Hemmings joined on lead guitar for a fuller sound and as of January 27, 2018, the much-anticipated debut album “Internal Momentum Of Fate” came to fruition.

Following a brief lineup change, Liam Ahola and Sara Vi were added to the roster and Kye exchanged his drum sticks for a guitar. Nostalgia changed their name to Within Nostalgia as a new and more sophisticated sound was created. On October 5, 2019, their full length entitled “Conjuring A New Reality” was released into the world and is being met with great response all over the globe.

“Executing a production influenced by the delicate line of the Post-Rock adorned with atmospheric Shoegaze passages, the voices interpreted by the women are aggressive roars of black metal which are interspersed with soft voices giving harmony to the compositions etc. A release inspired by the beauty of nature that must be heard by fans of the genre” – El Abismo Del Metal

Montreal, QC – November 4, 2019

Calgary’s THIRD CHAMBER Unleash Next Single ‘Terror Formed’ Off Upcoming EP “Harvesting Our Decay”

Announce Alberta Dates

Politically Charged EP “Harvesting Our Decay” Out Nov 22nd

Comprised of several musicians with a long history in Calgary’s metal scene (Culled, After Earth, Meddigo, False Flag, WAKE, Disciples of Power, Exit Strategy, and Razorwing), THIRD CHAMBER is cooking up a new, yet familiar death metal sound that will nourish even the pickiest of metal enthusiasts.

Set to unleash their debut EP “Harvesting Our Decay” on November 22nd, 2019, the band is ready to offer their next single ‘Terror Formed’ via its exclusive premiere on Bravewords HERE.

With death being the main ingredient in their metal melting pot, hints of grindcore and hardcore also stand out amidst flavours of politically charged lyrics. THIRD CHAMBER is not music for the soft, besides being musically ferocious, the lyrical content is a brutal reflection of the current state of the world. From negative motivations of religious organizations, the effects of social media on mental distress, the ever-growing pride of ignorance, the exploitation of our natural resources for the profit of the wealthy and the manipulation and lack of actual truth in most media consumed by the ever-growing bewildered herd.

The band explains ‘Terror Formed’:

“This track is about media consumed by a majority of society that is fear-mongering bull shit riddled with stories design to strike fear and spread hate. A media that benefits on chaos will not hesitate to help create what it needs to survive and keep people plugged in.”

THIRD CHAMBER will be hitting the road for four dates across the province of Alberta in November and December.

Show Dates:
Nov 23 – Red Deer, AB – The Krossing
Nov 29 – Medicine Hat, AB – Heartwood Cafe
Nov 30 – Edmonton, AB – The Starlite Room Temple
Dec 6 – Calgary, AB – Dickens

THIRD CHAMBER is for fans of Black Dahlia Murder, Suffocation, At the Gates, Misery Index, Napalm Death.

EP pre-order here. (Digital, CD and a limited quantity of hand-numbered cassettes)

In 2019, Third Chamber is releasing their debut five-track EP “Harvesting Our Decay”.

– 30 –

“A strong 5 track EP with fierce vocals, drums, riffs, and well played solos that are timed to hit the right places. Not a boring EP by any stretch. Third Chamber give you a taste for what will come on the future album.” – Metal Nerd Republic

“With death metal as their wicked foundation, Third Chamber twists in other genres such as hardcore to create a ripping, punchy and all together skull bashing sound. Their upcoming five track EP titled Harvesting Our Decay is ferocious, explosive and down right neck bending heavy. If you aren’t head banging to this release you may as well not even have a pulse. Each track does a great job of getting right underneath your skin and right in your face, shredding you limb from limb until the final note rings through your speakers.” – Cadaver Garden

Bio:

Edmonton’s Black Mastiff (Bob Yiannakoulias, Clay Shea, Allan Harding) is a band built around lifelong friendships and having fun, a vibe they’ve extended to both their porous, heavy, and vigorous live performance, and their recordings.

With their third full-length album Loser Delusions (Fall 2019), keeping it together became a literal priority. During the four years since their well-received Music Machine (New Damage Records, 2015), recorded and beautifully produced at Thunder Underground Studio in the desert of Palm Springs with John Garcia (Kyuss, Vista Chino), the trio had to change their perception of how a band operates. Already Renaissance men and entrepreneurs in other life ventures, when facing unforeseen challenges the band sharpened their production and business know-how by starting their own label, Grand Hand, with tour mates Chron Goblin. When drummer Allan moved to Vancouver, they decided to see how distance apart could add to, rather than take away from, their creative process and sound. The result is a determined continuation of what they do best, with a voyaging out into new sonic territory.

– 30 –

“This one rises above the ultra-crowded stoner rock genre with its seriously ’70s vibe, cool and lazy vocal delivery, warm production and adherence to the riff over everything else.” – Exclaim

“Black Mastiff is a power trio that creates their own version of stoner rock. They take a super heavy riff for a ride and explore a groove with a heavy rhythmic infra-structure and beautiful melodic vocals that bear the influence of the sounds of the desert.” – Coachella Valley Weekly

“I’m a fan of music….when you hear music that makes you feel….well, that’s what Black Mastiff did for me…they made me feel…… there was just something there. When music makes you feel anything, anything at all. Happy, sad, takes you back…I don’t care who it is. I don’t care if it’s Earth, Wind or Fire, Motley Crue, if it draws out deep emotion, I become a fan. I became a fan of Black Mastiff when Bruno Fevery and I caught their set….So much so, that I covered one of their songs on my new solo album.” – John Garcia-(KYUSS, Slo Burn, Vista Chino)

“I saw them in Edmonton, Canada. They have such a unique take on music and just when you think you know where it’s gonna go, they take it somewhere completely unexpected….some of their songs remind me of a modern version of The Doors whether they see it or not.” – John Garcia – (KYUSS, Slo Burn, Vista Chino)

About:

Born in 1989, singer, songsmith and multi-instrumentalist Morgan Rider had his earliest imaginings of life as a musician while contending with an often tumultuous childhood. Overhearing his mother – who is a trained operatic soprano – his love and understanding of music blossomed at an early age. Morgan eventually spending his adolescent and early adult years performing in touring metal bands – appearing on tours and large festivals across North America and Europe.

During the summer of 2017, Morgan’s adoration of folk, classical and blues music finally culminated into a project and the beginnings of a collection of songs. The name Deep Dark River had been stuck in his head for years, as a byproduct of his writings and alluding to the very nature of his ideas as a musician and artist. As such, Deep Dark River became the name by which he would perform beneath.

While his ideas began to take form, so did his mindset for what became the early stages of Deep Dark River. In March of 2018, the first original Deep Dark River single ‘The Golden Bough’ was released digitally worldwide. Morgan began performing live and also toured solo to the Canadian east coast to promote the single. In the summer of 2018, the debut album Deep Dark River was released and supported with a full Canadian solo tour over 5 weeks.

As 2018 neared its end, Morgan called upon his friend Nathen Morrison to contribute cello to the sounds of Deep Dark River, solidifying the project as a duo. The pair immediately began rehearsing and recording the first of a four-album quadrilogy – which Morgan had written the bulk of on his travels. The first single featuring the pair – Starfire – was released in March of 2019 along with the album “King of The Forest” released on June 21st, 2019 via North Soul Records. Not slowing down, the pair have their next album just months later “The Deep Dark Blue” planned for release via North Soul Records on November 22nd, 2019 with its lead single ‘The Seafaerers’.

TYMO Embraces Traditional Thrash Metal With New Single ‘Sanity Clause’

L-R: Nick Schwartz (Guitar), Tim Tymo (Vocals & Guitar), Marc Durie (Drums), Harlen Jacobs (Bass) – Photo by Dana Zuk

Edmonton’s Tymo have fleshed out a new single ‘Sanity Clause’ , which is being premiered exclusively via Bravewords at the following link HERE.

This single is the first release from the band since their 2017 album “Purge and Reset” and they are fired up to get this new single to ears! They quote with enthusiasm:

“We hope that people are as excited to hear what we’ve come up with as we are to put it out! We can never know for sure how people will respond to our music, but we’re excited to see what people think!”

Influenced by thrash heavyweights including Megadeth, Slayer and Municipal Waste, the single is their first that will depart from the melodic end of the metal spectrum exhibiting more speed, energy and technicality that is akin to the traditional thrash sound. In their own words:

“It’s a fast, skull crushing song, which tells the story of one not being able to escape their consciousness. When the obstacles in life become too hard, they take their own life only to realize it’s much worse in the afterlife and the consequences are worse.”

What started as a solo project for Tim Tymo evolved into a full-fledged band with the addition of Nick Schwartz, Harlen Jacobs and Marc Durie. They describe their sound eloquently by coining it as a ‘golden shower of thrash metal’ and citing that this single is a taste of what’s to come on the upcoming album the thrashers have chosen nine songs that they think will stand out the best and are stoked to be releasing them soon.

Metalheads get ready! This single comes out October 4, 2019 on all music platforms.

BIO:

They will fill you up with “nice juicy riffage”, some critics have stated about Tymo: a band whose attitude lives to the title of their debut album “Purge & Reset”. Lead guitarist and vocalist Tim Tymo explains that the origin of the title is more than words; it is a statement of lost faith in humanity. “Let’s just say we have a creator or superior being. If this being gave up everything we needed to flourish and returned to see all the wars and corruption, it would want to wipe the slate clean and start over. Hence…PURGE AND RESET!”

Formed in Edmonton in 2015, Tymo is comprised of Tim Tymo as the lead guitarist and vocalist, Nick Schwartz on rhythm guitar, Harlen Jacobs on bass, and Marc Durie on drums.

Tymo was among Edmonton’s finalists in the Wacken Metal Battle Canada contest: a battle of the bands with the goal of playing in the Wacken Open Air music festival in Germany. They have played with bands such as Ninjaspy, Mortillery, Hazzerd, W.M.D., and Thor. Inspired by Municipal Waste, Megadeth, Slayer, Bonded by Blood, and Metallica, Tim Tymo describes the band’s sound as “loud, angry, and explosive thrash”. Tymo has a serious mission to entertain their fans. “We love writing and performing, and we all share a common passion for thrash metal. We wanted to reference our heroes and mix up that inspiration with our own brew and see what we came up with; and here we are. We want to give people a source of inspiration and excitement!”

Live, Tymo has much in common with their heroes Municipal Waste. “We like to look at our shows as something to keep everyone entertained, such as having something unique happen during each song. We will have our mascot run out and mosh with the crowd and add little changes throughout each song to keep the set memorable.” Tymo’s debut album “Purge & Reset” was released in August of 2017 and is available online at all major online retailers.

Since 1994, GHOULUNATICS have been ravaging the underground with their personal blend of metal and hardcore and have built a solid discography of releases since then. As of April 26th, they will have a new addition, their first in over 10 years, the new single “Move Along” that continues their hardcore ‘rotten roll’.

The band comments:

“We hope our fans will be excited to hear new music from us. It will be the first new recording since the album Cryogénie in 2006. We are celebrating our 25th anniversary in 2019, so we wanted to celebrate with new tunes and go on the road more than we have these last couple of years. And let’s hope we can make new fans as well! Bring on the shows!! We’re back!”

Working collaboratively, Patrick Mireault (vocals); Patrick Gordon (guitar); Gary Lyons (bass); Francis Dubois (guitar) and Brian Craig (drums) meld punk, death metal and rock n’ roll together to form their signature diablerie. “Move Along” focuses on GHOULUNATICS’ hardcore influences, and while they aren’t taking a new step musically, they have chosen to let this particular influence take the reins.

GHOULUNATICS is sure to please anyone who appreciates a loud, explosive, rockin’ good time, especially those already interested in bands such as Entombed, Slayer, and Cancer Bats.

About:

The Montreal based band Ghoulunatics made its name thanks to their very energetic stage presence and its own artistic signature and composition methods, resulting in a unique musical footprint that distinguishes them from the masses.

From 1994 to 2008, Ghoulunatics traveled all over Quebec and Ontario relentlessly, always putting the pedal to the metal. They made their mark on the Quebec and Canadian metal and hardcore scenes, but also garnered attention abroad. In 2004, Ghoulunatics toured Germany for the album Sabacthany. In 2006, with the release of Cryogenie, they rocked France after being signed to the label Enraged Productions, home of well-known French bands like Tagada Jones and Lofofora, etc. After 15 years of Rotten Roll, Ghoulunatics split amicably in 2008, ending with a sold-out show at Foufounes Electriques in Montreal. The group came out of retirement in 2010 to headline a food drive event. They hit the stage again in 2012 for a show at Club Soda, and have since been playing 2-3 times a year since then for special events or festivals.

2019 marks the 25th anniversary of the band as well as the return of Ghoulunatics! The group is currently working on new music for the first time since Cryogenics (2006) and will launch a single with the hopes of releasing an EP during the course of the year. Watch out! The ghouls are back!!

(contact info below)

NEWS RELEASE

Ottawa, ON – December 4, 2018

OMINOUS ECLIPSE Are ‘Breaking The Chains’ With New Lyric Video

New Album “Sinister” Out Now!

L-R- James Close (Guitar/Vocal), Graham Murphy (Guitar/Vocal), Ryan Clements (Bass), Jeremiah Marshall (Drums) – Photo Credit: Max Southwood

Drawing their inspiration from a wide variety of genres, OMINOUS ECLIPSE is a brutal quartet that create a unique hybrid sound with death metal being the main aspect combined with elements of thrash, groove, black, melodic, etc. Unleashing their sophomore album “Sinister” this past September, the band have put together a new lyric video for their track “Breaking The Chains” premiered on Bravewords.com.

Watch it now at the following link: http://bravewords.com/news/exclusive-ominous-eclipse-premieres-breaking-the-chains-lyric-video

For those in the Ottawa area, OMINOUS ECLIPSE will be performing on December 11th opening for The Faceless, Rings of Saturn, Vales of Pnath and more at Mavericks. Full details here.

“Sinister” is now streaming at the following link: https://youtu.be/PWKEeTguj-w

Plus available on Bandcamp, iTunes, Amazon, Google Play and Spotify.

Music Video – “Sinister” – https://youtu.be/ZkCr2u_wHfs

The band comments:

“There’s no concept or theme on this album so all the songs have different meaning. The title track itself divulges into the inevitable end to humanity and potentially the world with it. It discusses the issues around the globe and also addresses the ignorance and selfishness of those indirectly affected by the chaos. It has a strong “United We Stand, Divided We Fall” theme in regards to how people can turn their backs on those in need in order to save their own skin, which ironically will lead to our end as it causes people to turn on each other. Musically for this album, you will notice we have evolved from the first release and have moved away from thrashy overtones to become more diverse including more heavily stated melodic and technical with a solid groove and death foundation.”

“Sinister” follows their 2015 debut full length “End Of Days” and EP “Beyond The Apocalypse” released that same year. Active since 2014, OMINOUS ECLIPSE is a very ambitious band passionate about writing and playing extreme music.

“Their new song “Spiral Into Insanity” has a strong death metal foundation, including very melodic leads, but there’s more than enough groovy thrash inspiration and even a hint of black metal there. ” – Decibel Magazine

“a game changing release for Ominous Eclipse that places them center stage for my pick of the best Canadian Metal release this year….Every track stands strongly on its own, thanks to the band’s immense talent and flawless production. Ominous Eclipse is a band that carries the banner for the N.W.O.C.D.M. with pride and distinction. Out September 14th on all streaming platforms, I would recommend Sinister to fans of Death, Iron Maiden, Infernal Majesty and Gojira.” – Hellbound

“Demonstrating their ability to blend genres within metal to create a compelling album, this is an impressive sophomore delivery. Each track brings something different and feels refreshing even after multiple listens.” – Splice Magazine

“‘Sinister’ is a high-energy track launched by heartless riff jabs, ear-scouring string squeals, and neck-snapping drumwork. The vocals come for your throat, too, in an effusion of heartless roars and face-scraping shrieks, and the song is accented by flurries of spidery, darting fretwork and by a pair of flashy, fluid, but demented solos. It becomes a thrashing gallop, but without becoming any less venomous in its delivery.” – No Clean Singing

“The crowd was stellar at Mavericks, where each of the four bands were well represented by their fan bases. Opening on the night were Ominous Eclipse, whose chunky, frantic thrash metal din was led by their howling frontman. Largely drawing from their 2015 album End of Days, the four-piece pounded through six songs, tackling tracks like “Pestilence,” Abandoned” and the album’s particularly solid title track. Helping to limber the crowd for the chaos to come, they called for a “wall of death” in the confines of the club and the fans delivered, clearing the centre of the floor before the opposing sides barrelled into one another, bodies flying everywhere.” – Exclaim! (Live Review opening for Kalmah April 2016)

SHORT BIO
Looking to become the band they never saw, Killitorous is comprised of the passion to grind and the general love of technical death metal. Formed in 2006 in Ottawa, Canada; Killitorous is made up of current and former members of Suffocation, Cryptopsy, Annihilator and a myriad of other bands.

Determined to sound like a combination of their one million favorite death metal bands they envelop technical death metal in an eternal party. A bit cheeky and a metric fuck ton of fun, Killitorous is that raunchy but charismatic friend who fuels every party. Killitorous is a chaotic concoction, best described as technical party chaos death grind and it’s a true 90s death metal experience complete with one hell of an AfterParty!

Formed in 2006 in Ottawa, Canada; Killitorous is made up of current and former members of Suffocation, Cryptopsy, Annihilator and a myriad of other bands. Determined to sound like a combination of their one million favorite death metal bands they envelop technical death metal in an eternal party. A bit cheeky and a metric fuck ton of fun, Killitorous is that raunchy but charismatic friend who fuels every party. Working together in 90’s style, Aaron Homma (guitar) writes the main bits (sometimes with members of other bands), Nick Miller (guitar) and Marc Roy (guitar) sprinkle in the harmonies, Eric Morotti (drums) thickens the sauce and the lyrics are written together.

“It’s fucked up really if you think about it”, quips Mat Dhani (vocals), “We name the songs first, which are based on the funniest most memorable topics and scenarios we could come up with. Some true, mostly crazy.”

The demo “Pretend to Make Babies” was released in 2010 and their debut full-length album “Party, Grind” was released in 2014. 5 years later, the continuation of that album will be released in 2019, the aptly named “AfterParty”. It’s more melodic in sound but they’ve ramped up the technically with 3 no- stop guitar harmonies. Killitorous is a chaotic concoction, best described as technical party chaos death grind and it’s a true 90s death metal experience complete with one hell of an AfterParty!

SHORT BIO
Croatia’s SAGE is a creative and distinctive power metal band hailing from Zagreb. Birthed in 2013, they have been playing many live gigs and are releasing their debut album “Anno Domini 1573” in September of 2018.

“The band name SAGE means both the plant sage and ‘a wise old man'”, comments Enio Vučeta, guitarist and backup singer of the band, a living legend of the Croatian rock/metal scene. “We wanted to connect this to ourselves in a way because we are composed of several generations of Croatian musicians and we have great ambitions for our music to make a breakthrough in the world.”

LONG BIO
Croatia’s SAGE is a creative and distinctive power metal band hailing from Zagreb. Birthed in 2013, they have been playing many live gigs and are releasing their debut album “Anno Domini 1573” in September of 2018.

Comprised of six passionate musicians, Sage is on a mission to create interesting music for their fans while paying homage to their country’s history. A collaborative effort between Davor Bušljeta (vocals), Enio Vučeta (guitar and backing vocals), Marko Karačić (bass), Branimir Habek (guitar and backing vocals), Andrej Božić (keyboards and backing vocals), and Goran Mikulek (drums) they combine their experiences and knowledge in an original way.

Considering that many bands cover broad topics and well-known historical events, their debut album is a concept album that follows the events of the Peasants’ Revolt in 1573. With primary themes of overcoming oppression, the album is both a look into Croatia’s past and commentary of what is, to this day, a relevant topic. Accompanying the album are 11 music videos that are actually a film about the event.
