Charlotte’s Krvsade is ready to unleash their new EP “Judgement Day” on January 31, 2020 with the single ‘Keep It In The Church’ in anticipation of the next installment of the North Carolina’s thrash metal fury.

They have come along way from their 2017 debut EP “Militum Infernum” and Krvsade is excited to show off this stark contrast to the previous material to fans. Comparing the new release to their previous one, the band states:

“This EP is definitely a change compared to ‘Militum Infernum’. Whereas Militum was more raw and pure in your face, ‘Judgement Day’ has some twists and turns. The playing is better and I think fans will appreciate a band that’s firing on all cylinders and not holding anything back.”

New, refreshed and boasting some line-up changes, Krvsade is here to stay. “Judgement Day” is coming and it’s going to be an exciting, aggressive ride for everyone. The single ‘Keep It In The Church’ marks the start of a new era for the group and the EP as a whole is just an appetizer for the main course which is to come. When asked about the new single, Krvsade responds:

“This song is calling out people that use religion as an excuse to treat others poorly. Living in the south you see a lot of people think they have a better opinion or know your life and get to give you advice because of that. Fast and thrashing with a catchy chorus the song has a lot to say and hopefully, anyone going through similar troubles knows they aren’t alone.”

Fans of Slayer, old school Sepultura, Kreator, and Morbid should keep an eye on these guys and check out their single ‘Keep It In The Church’ at the following links:

Track Listing:
1. Judgement Day (3:22)
2. Keep it in the Church (7:46)
3. The Key and The Gate (6:41)
EP Length: 17:50

About:

Released from the depths in 2015, Krvsade is a mind-shattering thrash assault destined to conquer stages across the nation and the world. A new blend of extreme metal from Charlotte, USA, Krvsade incorporates death and black metal into the thrash equation, resulting in an original, brutal sound.

The four members of Krvsade work together to refine each melodic track, starting with Andre Evans (guitar/vocals) defining the skeleton of the song with riff ideas and the occasional chorus. The framework is sent to Keegan Dennis (drums) to flesh out a solid foundation and once that is done, it passes to Arthur Reid (guitar) and Jeb Laird (bass) for final attunement. Lyrical themes encompass anything from the end of days to religion and real-life events.

Having shared the stage with the likes of Inquisition, Nervosa, and Uada, Krvsade is first and foremost a live band. With seasoned musicians comprising the line-up, a live gig from Krvsade is intense and interactive. Raw and in the moment, it’s not a numb, over choreographed school play. This is real, in your face, fast and angry metal; a full set of four dudes losing their minds. The way it should be.

Krvsade released their debut offering ‘Militum Infernum’ in 2017, featuring the first three songs they ever wrote as a band. Growth and evolution are apparent in the newest recording, ‘Judgment Day’ EP arriving in January 2020. According to the band, this latest 3 track record is only an appetizer for the full course that is coming soon.

Bio:

Cell is a three-piece conceptual black metal band that formed in 2014 reigning from Winnipeg, Canada. They blend elements of old school and modern black metal with hints of death metal, hardcore, thrash, and doom to create reality-altering unrelenting cosmic black metal. Their concept is based on a science fiction comic book idea that Hyperion (guitar/vocals) was working to bring to life, but decided instead to turn into music.

Each song starts with Hyperion taking the reins by writing the song structure, riffs, and lyrics; Deimos (bass/vocals) and Hypnos (drums) adding in their preferences for riffs, lyrics and other such things to alter the songs for the better. There is a lot of cathartic emotion put into each song that connects to each member on a personal level while keeping within the dark sci-fi concept and using metaphors of what we as humans do to this planet and the life on it.

Using these topics, it’s easy for Cell to let everything out on stage every during every performance. They use a lot of art and theatre within the live show including using corpse paint, blood, armor, pro audio lights, and lasers. To see our show is to experience something emotional, aggressive, theatrical and cosmic.

Cell has toured across Canada multiple times and have been featured on several festivals including Black Mourning Light, Loud As Hell Metalfest, Armstrong Metalfest and Manitoba Metalfest sharing the stage with the likes of Skeletonwitch, Goatwhore, DRI, Revocation, and Aggression. They released their debut album ‘The Frozen Moon Of Erebath’ in 2016 and follow it up in 2019 with ‘Ancient Incantations Of Xarbos’.

“This song is about the lower race crossing the wailing sea to get to the valley of Assimilation. Within the valley, there is a wormhole that can transport any being to the realm of the Frost King. Long ago before the higher race started taking over, everyone was in harmony and lived together as one. Over the years fewer people believed in the gods of the old world and the
god of gods grew tired of this and trapped all the souls of non-believers”

Montreal, QC – August 20, 2019

Winnipeg Cosmic Black Metal CELL Unleash ‘God of The NetherRealm’ Off Upcoming Album Out October 2019

New Album ‘Ancient Incantations Of Xarbos’ Out October 4th

CELL, Canada’s three-piece conceptual cosmic black metal outfit are releasing a new album ‘Ancient Incantations Of Xarbos’ to follow up their first album ‘The Frozen Moon Of Erebath’ (2016) on October 4, 2019.

With major influences coming from Emperor, Death, Morbid Angel, and Immortal, CELL takes familiar black metal sounds and infuses it with a science fiction theme that spans their albums.

Each track on ‘Ancient Incantations Of Xarbos’ has its own story on the album that leads to one big ending which is the decimation of the Xarbonite hierarchy. Fueled with tales of tech, black magic, and necromancy the album is cosmic ride with pummeling riffs. CELL talks about some of the concepts on the album:

“The whole album takes place on a planet called Xarbos. There is a great civil war that has been happening on Xarbos for the few millennia since the two races divided and chose to take different paths with their ways of life. One race chose to rise with power, tech, money and also started the destruction of the other race to achieve their evil agenda. The lower race is actually the oldest of Xarbos and knows the ways of the land and its magic.” 

The single ‘God of The NetherRealm’ has special significance to CELL as Hyperion explains:

“This song was written for my friend Chad Alsop of the great band Dead Ranch. He passed away in June 2017 and it devastated me and many friends within our music scene in Winnipeg. He was a big push for CELL and inspired us to go harder every day and every show. In this song, his soul travels to the NetherRealm and he encounters the one who sits on the throne there. He then goes forward and challenges the god of the NetherRealm to combat and wins. When one dethrones the god of this realm, they now have to take the mantle and rule.”

‘God of The NetherRealm’ can be heard exclusively at the following link on NoCleanSinging.com here.

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – May 14, 2019

For fans of Kreator, Slayer, Havok, Skull Fist, Carcass, Death

HELLNITE Announces Western Canadian Tour For Haunting Album “Midnight Terrors” (Sliptrick Records)

HELLNITE – Midnight Terrors Western Canadian Tour:
June – 21 – Edmonton, AB – Rendezvous
June 22 – Calgary, AB – County Line Saloon
June 25 – Kelowna, BC – Munnin’s Post
June 28 – Vancouver, BC – The Biltmore Cabaret
July 1 – Nelson, BC – The Royale
July 5 – Regina, SK – Cloud 9

Thrashers HELLNITE are proud to announce they will be embarking on their first ever Western Canadian tour since band founder Paolo Belmar relocated himself and the band to Edmonton, AB from Mexico City. While setting up the band again in Canada, Belmar was backed by Canadian musicians, but for this tour, he will be joined by original bassist Luis “Chaps” Mora and drummer Mauricio Salas for the road adventures through the Canadian Rockies and Prairies. The six-date “Midnight Terrors Western Canadian Tour”, which is in support of the same titled album the band released earlier this via Sliptrick Records, will be kicking off in Edmonton on June 21st and ending on July 5th in Regina.

Each member had this to say about their first venture touring Canada.

Paolo: “I’m excited in general, not sure what to expect but I’m sure we’ll do our best. This is our first tour out of Mexico and having my old pals with me again makes me feel confident and I know we will have fun playing together as a band rather than just do it because I already started this and I have to finish it (as I was doing when the album was released), it feels really good to have the original lineup together again.”

Chaps: “I’m excited because it was a long time without playing with my best friends and doing this project together. We will put our whole hearts to make you feel the power of a Mexican Metal band.”

Mauricio: “To be honest, I’m nervous because it’s my first time playing in Canada but I’m pretty sure that every single night of the tour will be a night to remember! So, be prepared to feel the Mexican power!”

HELLNITE‘s debut release “Midnight Terrors” is lyrically a paranormal and sci-fi themed concept album with influences from classic heroes such as Kreator, Slayer, Death along with next-generation thrash and heavy metal such as Havok, Skull Fist. The album was written and recorded by founding member, vocalist, and guitarist Paolo Belmar who formed HELLNITE originally in Mexico City in 2010 and has now re-established the band Edmonton, Canada.

The album is available from Sliptrick Records here (CD) along with stream and download on iTunes, Spotify, and all major online retailers.

“Hellnite does it right and it’s so damn good. Midnight Terrors is a thrilling listen. An old-school thrash record. Nine tracks of hard-hitting metal with a bucket-load of head-banging riffs, evil sounding vocals, and crunchy drum beats. From the circle pit mayhem of Phantom Force to the galloping rhythm of Spirits Prevail and the super hot guitar work of Beasts from the Deep, the first half of the album is banger after banger. ” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“There is some top-notch riffing happening on Midnight Terrors.” – The Metal-Observer

“The guitar work is a ride that ascends and descends impressively. ” – Boston Rock radio

“a hybrid meshing of classic thrash and modern interpretation a welcome offering.” – The Metal Channel

“This is an album that can’t be missed or overlooked so go and get it. Hellnite has reassured the world that heavy metal will never die. Enough said, now get it and crank it up!” – The Dirty Room

Calgary’s CONCRETE FUNERAL have been bashing their way into the ears of metal lovers in the local underground scene since 2015 and now they are bringing their debut album “Ultimum Judicium” to the masses this coming May 2019.

The first single from this pounding album is ‘Stabbed To Death’; the crux of this heavy and groovy album shows off the dirty work of this band of no-bullshit musicians. It is straight to the point in ferocity, climaxing with ruthless vocals and thick, punchy riffs. The band explains the lyrics and music behind the single:

“Straight up about hunting somebody down and playing with their insides just for the sheer pleasure of doing so, again very b movie inspired as you’ll see from the lyric video. Straight up thrash riffs in the vein of Exodus, meant to be a quick catchy single that sounds mean as the lyrics are.”

Belmar adds:

“I have been working on ‘Midnight Terrors’ since 2014 when I lived in Mexico and I think it will be well received from people who are into oldies and classic metal. I’m proud to say that it is something that I made to happen by myself. I want to say thanks to everyone who joined me in this trip and put a piece of effort in order to bring this album to life, Hellnite will live forever AND the next album will be even better (I can’t wait). I hope this album provokes curiosity; my purpose is to catch people’s attention so they can follow the next movements of the band, which are going to be a little bit twisted in comparison with ‘Midnight Terrors’.”

0 Northern Quebec’s BACKSTABBER Offers Free Download “No Privacy”; Debut Album “Conspiracy Theorist” Out Feb 15, 2019

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – January 4, 2019

For fans of Kataklysm, Hypocrisy, Decapitated, Deicide, At The Gates

Northern Quebec’s BACKSTABBER Offers Free Download “No Privacy”

Debut Album “Conspiracy Theorist” Out Feb 15, 2019

L-R: Patrick Gagné (Drums), Christian M. Thériault (Guitars & Vocals), Éric Séguin (Bass & Back Vocals)

From the darkness of Northern Quebec, Canada, Rouyn-Noranda’s assaulting BACKSTABBER are sharing their fury with a FREE download of their single “No Privacy”off their forthcoming debut album “Conspiracy Theorist” set to be unleashed on February 15, 2019. The 10 track album is a fierce full-length that encompasses themes about scandals, critiques of mainstream media and conspiracies such as hollow Earth.

“‘Conspiracy Theorist’ is an album that’s meant to open your mind about the way the world revolves around us as it offers a new perspective on many issues that we see in our lives.” says vocalist/guitarist Christian M. Thériault

Remaining old school, there are no clean vocals or breakdowns here, just a solid and mature death/thrash metal album, with good flow and clear thought in the tracks and compositions.

Their single “No Privacy” is a brutal track focusing on the pervasive usage of metadata collection and their multiple applications merged with quantum analyzing.

The band explains further:

“‘No Privacy’ focuses on the fact that privacy is almost gone with metadata. It makes you question the difference between privacy and liberty. We also explore the possibilities of analyzing metadata with quantum computers and the creation of real-life simulation programs like Sentient World Simulation and their implications in real life. If you can create a real-time virtual reality with quantum computers collecting and analyzing metadata, that program could run simulations of almost everything and in the end, it could guess the future with an unbelievable level of certainty.”

Download the track for free at https://backstabbermetal.bandcamp.com/track/no-privacy.

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.
