Canada’s Black Pestilence returns with their ferocious seventh studio album “Chaotic Wisdom”. The band started out as very chaotic black metal with small hints of punk rock and lots of noise. After, it slowly evolved into a punk rock structure with black metal vocals. Now it is much more catchy with shorter song lengths. It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly the sound that Black Pestilence is now. There are more electronic samples, simple verse/chorus song structures, and much less traditional black metal elements other than occasional blast beats and tremolo picking. Vocalist/bassist Valax comments on the album:

“I knew that following up “Hail the Flesh” would be a tall order. “Chaotic Wisdom” is a Satanic d-beat. The music is formulated around typical punk rock song structures while being projected through the playing style of black metal. Greater emphasis was placed on the samples used on this album in the form of additional percussion and cacophonous electronics. Many of the song lyrics touch base on various themes related to Satanic philosophy, societal stratification, and general debauchery.”

“Chaotic Wisdom” contains seven Satanic d-beat anthems. It is the result of three years of writing and recording and is the pinnacle of the Black Pestilence catalog. Similar to previous releases, this album is fast, infectious, and straight to the point. However, experimentation with dissonant tones, industrial electronics, and auxiliary percussion was emphasized to a greater degree on this album. This is not a stylistic change from Black Pestilence, but represents an elevation to the next level of chaotic noise.

The album was mixed and mastered by Sacha Laskow and the album artwork by Juha Vuorma. It is recommended for all black metal fans especially those who enjoy Impaled Nazarene, Acidez, and Midnight.

Released on September 8, 2023, “Chaotic Wisdom” is available digitally plus CD and cassette at https://blackpestilence.bandcamp.com.

““Crushing” is indeed the first word that comes to mind when hearing the massive mauling tones of the riffs, like rock being excavated by some humongous machine. That machine drives forward with snapping punk beats, laced with a sinister yet glorious guitar melody. The music itself also becomes more vicious as the riffs start rapidly jabbing and then seething. But the music also channels darker and more despairing moods, before those two solos kick up the pulse and transform the music into an experience of evil ecstasy. The thing turns out to be a very catchy beast too.” – The Devil’s Connection (single) – No Clean Singing

“I seriously can’t get enough of this. It’s big, nasty, and as rough as a badger’s arse. The black energy it creates is like a massive middle finger to the world and it says – you don’t like me, you don’t like my music or all the things I stand for – go and fuck yourself! This is real and this is as honest as it gets. Fantastic – more, please! 9/10” – My Global Mind”weave in some catchy hooks and melody especially on “Chaos of Carnality” and “The Devil’s Connection,” songs I can easily imagine crowds shouting along to.” – The Metal Crypt

“These Canadian metallers have returned with their seventh full-length offering, executing a unique blend of chaotic black metal and punk rock with electronic samples and catchy, shorter song lengths. This album, the result of three years of work, presents seven satanic-esque anthems that push the boundaries of their signature sound. While retaining their fast and infectious style, Chaotic Wisdom, also experiments with dissonant tones, industrial electronics, and auxiliary percussion, taking Black Pestilence’s chaotic noise to the next level. The album, mixed and mastered by Sacha Laskow, features artwork by Juha Vuorma, making it a must-listen for black metal enthusiasts, particularly fans of Impaled Nazarene, Acidez, and Midnight.” – Metal Insider

“While speed or thrash metal to the core, there’s a bit of punk about Black Pestilence. The band dances the fine line between thrash and punk with a destructive ease. That thrash punk blend can be heard in “Infernal Might” featuring Mark Russell and closing track “Animus”. And before one knows it, Chaotic Wisdom is over. It clocks in at a mere twenty-four minutes. Get distracted and you might not hear the entire album and that would be quite a shame. As fast as it is, Chaotic Wisdom is quick, melodic, and a great listen. MUST LISTEN TRACKS: “The Devil’s Connection”, “Aspect of Darkness”, “Infernal Might”, “Animus”” – Amplify The Noise

“Black Pestilence has its own approach to Black Metal, blending a raw, Punk-influenced base with strange futuristic elements. Chaotic Wisdom is very short, but provides a good overview of the band’s rage.” – Acta Infernalis

“Maintaining its Mad Max side, primitive and low-brow, Black Pestilence offers us a significantly more modern and exalted version of its furious mixture bathed in d-beat, Toxic Holocaust and Venom. Many new followers should easily join their cult.” – Eklektik Rock

0 AUGURIUM Releases Brutal, Slamming Album “Unearthly Will” + Canadian Tour Dates (BC, AB, SK)

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – August 24, 2023

Canada’s AUGURIUM Releases Brutal, Slamming Album “Unearthly Will”

New Album “Unearthly Will” Out August 2023

+ Western Canadian Tour Dates (BC, AB, SK)

L-R – Taylor MacDonald – Drums, Logan Barlow – Lead Guitar, Yianni Pantelopoulos – Vocals, Cejay Carnochan – Rhythm Guitar, Reid Paraszczynec – Bass

Regina, SK’s brutal death metal act Augurium is now releasing their third studio release “Unearthly Will” to follow the band’s second album 2018’s “Unhallowed Ascendance” and 2017 EP “Omen”, which were stepping stones of straight-up brutal death metal, to a now more refined, darkened, carefully crafted monstrous offering. “Unearthly Will” is a culmination of core ideas that remain consistent and brutal yet experimental. It brings a dark musical aspect to lyrical themes of light and inner thought processes. The band shares their thoughts:

“This project has been an awesome journey and a welcome challenge to create over the past two years. All of our experiences have been absorbed and expressed within the walls of sound. As a tapestry is weaved together, each day as a thread towards the colossal effort that went towards this death metal release. We hope that our listeners enjoy this album for what it is, and perhaps join us when we perform in your area.”

The original line-up went to high school together and always jammed to their heroes hoping to one day do it themselves. After joining a former band and getting a taste of live shows and creating material, they decided to pull the plug and start doing what had been talked about for years prior. Thus Augurium was born with a hunger for heavy brutal death metal.

Through a few line-up changes and numerous festival shows and supporting Belphegor and Cryptopsy, Augurium has been making a name for itself across the country. Thematically, there are many different influences from philosophy, the study of different religions, fantasy franchises, video games, and mythology. They aim to write for entertainment, but also to spread a positive message, hopefully making the world a better place through music.

Augurium takes their old and new favourites within the world of heavy metal and spins them into something brutal and truly engaging. They are recommended for fans of Belphegor, Decrepit Birth, and Cannibal Corpse.

Before the album officially drops on August 25th, they have teamed up with NoCleanSinging for its full-stream premiere HERE.

“Unearthly Will” is available for pre-order at https://augurium.bandcamp.com.

“an intense, sinister journey through the depths of death metal, the album is sure to delight genre fans.” – Amplified-Mag

““Phantom Parallax” (single) with the promise of atmospheric, orchestral, bloodthirsty destruction served with a side order of slamming riffs, break neck time signature changes and breakdowns galore.” – Metal Noise

“All in all one can say that every track on “Unearthly Will” fits very well into the overall construct… there is no boredom and the overall length of 27:16 minutes proves that the dark trip is not long-winded but rather shorter, but all the more intense. The newly adopted, rather epic orchestral approach convinced me that AUGURIUM can implement both straightforward and atmospheric songwriting, I’m very excited to hear what the Canadians will be hearing in the future and I would really like to experience the whole thing live!” – PowerMetal.de

BLACK PESTILENCE Announces Western Canadian Tour Dates w/ Citizen Rage (AB, SK, MB)

New Music Video “The Devil’s Connection”

New Album “Chaotic Wisdom” Out September 2023

Calgary’s Black Pestilence announces they will be hitting the road this coming September for tour dates with Citizen Rage. The Western Canadian tour will kick off with a hometown show on September 15th at Dickens and see the two bands pillage across Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, where they will wrap up the eight-date tour in Winnipeg, MB on September 23rd (dates listed below)

Black Pestilence will be on tour supporting their seventh full-length album “Chaotic Wisdom” being unleashed on September 8th.

Conjured by bassist/vocalist Valax, Black Pestilence was founded in 2008, initially as a one-man studio project that would evolve into a three-piece band and has remained in that form. To date, they have offered an impressive discography, six full-length albums, and two EPs, and now in 2023, their next studio release “Chaotic Wisdom” further expands on lyrical themes including LaVeyan Satanism, current events, social issues, and the glorification of the epicurean lifestyle.

The first single off the album, “The Devil’s Connection” is now out accompanied by a music video, which can be seen and heard below. Valax shares his thoughts on the track:

“The Devil’s Connection addresses the advantages of having an open mind. As esoteric as some scenarios might be, it will allow one to adapt to any situation. ”

Watch and listen to their music video for “The Devil’s Connection” at https://youtu.be/bhEBrCdP2ao

On the band’s new album “Chaotic Wisdom”, Black Pestilence sounds a bit darker and more analog. According to Valax, fans will get the same infectious sound this band is known for but with a different style of production. For example, they used various different mic techniques for recording the guitars, which added a very different overall sound. Each member of the trio spent more time recording their parts, which results in a much better performance than its predecessor.

Black Pestilence started out as very chaotic black metal with small hints of punk rock and lots of noise. After, it slowly evolved into a punk rock structure with black metal vocals. Now it is much more catchy with shorter song lengths. Their chaotic black metal ’n’ roll is recommended for fans of Midnight, Toxic Holocaust, and Impaled Nazarene.

“Chaotic Wisdom” is due out on September 8, 2023, and available for pre-order at https://blackpestilence.bandcamp.com.

““Crushing” is indeed the first word that comes to mind when hearing the massive mauling tones of the riffs (The Devil’s Connection), like rock being excavated by some humongous machine. That machine drives forward with snapping punk beats, laced with a sinister yet glorious guitar melody. The music itself also becomes more vicious as the riffs start rapidly jabbing and then seething. But the music also channels darker and more despairing moods, before those two solos kick up the pulse and transform the music into an experience of evil ecstasy. The thing turns out to be a very catchy beast too.” – No Clean Singing

“A recent discovery that has tickled the excitement nerves in my jaded and encrusted ear drums is Calgary’s Black Pestilence. Their take on black metal incorporates old-school thrash and punk and if you listen closely you can hear the smatterings of plain ol’ rock ‘n’ roll and swaths of noise and is a sound that has been explored and nurtured since the band formed as a one-man project in 2008. The band’s handlers claim those fans of Toxic Holocaust, Impaled Nazarene, Municipal Waste, Midnight and Cradle of Filth unconcerned with genre boundaries will enjoy Black Pestilence and we have to say the nail has certainly been hit on the head in that regard. Additionally, fans of image and theatrics will find value in the band’s aesthetic which owes to a collision of black metal, goth rock and Judas Priest’s wardrobe and fashion sense. ” – Decibel Magazine

“Hail the Flesh is a nice, quick, in and out style album. There’s no messing around, there’s no overly extended bridges or songs that overstay their welcome. This is a 9 track album that only spans 34 minutes of constant, hard hitting riffs, blasts, and downright aggressive and dominative vocals. Even the final track on the album, “Ephemeral”, which nearly reaches 7 minutes in play time feels fresh the whole way through. ” – Metal Injection

“an album that really has a surprisingly wide range within the black/thrash/punk style so if you love that sort of black and roll aggressive metal, then “Hail The Flesh” will be an album for you.” – The Rockpit

“Calgary, Canada’s Black Pestilence bring a fresh take to the sound, though. Hail The Flesh, the band’s sixth full-length album is a blackened crossover punk-thrash album. It sounds old school, yet very 2000s at the same time…. Municipal Waste, Impaled Nazarene, Toxic Holocaust fans take notice.” – Heavy Music Headquarters

“They really don’t have another gear beyond ‘top’ which makes for a splitting headache of heavy but one that satisfies. After all there are only 9 tracks and as Godless spits and snarls, Frauds to the Throne exudes filthy groove, My Will to Power rages hard and Ephemeral drags the suffering out, the over-riding thought is Black Pestilence have impressed.” 8/10 – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“Honestly, anyone with the remotest interest in Black ‘n’ Thrash, Black ’n’ Roll or even just plain old Thrash is going to love this album. It is a blisteringly addictive listen. The skilfully fluid ways that all these genres are melded is both brilliant and compelling as well as being lyrically inspiring.” – MetalTalk.net

“First things first, it’s not every day you hear black metal as fun as this! That is partly because of the exciting thrash and not-so-serious punk influences, but also because the songwriting is very strong. ” 4/ 5 – The Independent Voice

“dirty, punky Black/Thrash that occasionally makes feedback noises and consistently slaughters everything in its path.” 4/5 – The Metal Crypt

Vocalist / guitarist Matt Stanley comments on the upcoming album ‘In Our Blood’:

“We definitely have a power trio kind of sound now. We have a different bass player on this album and when we parted ways with our former lead guitarist, I went from playing rhythm guitar to playing lead guitar. We’re also better players and songwriters at this point. The last album was pretty much straight rock and alternative. We’ve dug a little deeper this time around, incorporating elements of punk, grunge, folk and country rock and writing lyrics about everyday life. The best inspiration for writing songs is experiencing the world; getting out there, playing live and being a touring rock ‘n’ roll band.” says vocalist / guitarist Matt Stanley.

Biography:

Outcasts among wise men and fools alike, the New Jacobin Club is a fiendish group of musicians, poets, painters and performance artists who have been entertaining and provoking since the mid 1990’s. Combining seedy bohemian stage theatrics with bombastic art rock anthems has given the long lived ensemble a shocking and original edge that has attracted as much heated controversy as it has fiercely loyal fans.

Beginning as a power trio based in the Western Canadian city of Saskatoon, the New Jacobin Club signed to U.S. indie label Transparent Records in 1998 and released “A Lesson in Mortality”. In 2003 “Retake the Throne,” their second full length album, became a minor Canadian college radio hit, creeping on to the national top 100 chart by the year’s end. By 2009, the NJC had become infamous for their provocative live show featuring unsettling freakshow stunts and what would become signature pyro tricks such as “exploding” cymbals and lighting microphone stands on fire. They released the epic gothic rock-opera “This Treason” the following year accompanied with “Inside the Cannibal Circus,” a DVD complete with concept video, live concert and candid documentary style footage. The double disc set was met with even more college radio success and sparked strong opinions from critics in Canada and worldwide.

In 2014, the band returned with their next shocker ‘Soldiers of The Mark’ released on September 2, 2014 is sure to make your ears cringe with its ten tracks of insanity. Along with that release, NJC offered fans a very special and limited edition “Soldiers of the Mark” hardcover coffee-table format lyric book that was a joint effort with Calgary, AB based RunRabbit Entertainment. RunRabbit is notable for their independent short films (“Lilith” premiered at the 2013 Calgary Horrorcon and featured music by the New Jacobin Club prominently in the soundtrack) as well as their dark and provocatively themed photography. The book contains not only the complete lyrics to the album, but an introduction, brief commentary written by band members and entourage, and full album credits. Contributing visual artists include Jess Thamnos (responsible for the iconic and menacing album cover ), Kathryn Trembach (band photographer) and Candice Grosenick (graphic artist behind the band’s concert posters and merchandise).

The group is led by founding father and roaring frontman Xerxes Praetorius Horde (“The Horde” to his allies), singing opposite Poison Candi (theremin, percussion, vocals) and backed by The Luminous (electric cello),The Ruin (bass), The Rat King (drums) and Mistress Nagini (backing vocals, synth) . On stage the band is often joined by a colorful cast of collaborators including performance artists Firecrotch Jones, Raunchy Rabies, Rima the Birdgirl, and drummer/programmer Eclipse.

Described as “Fiery and imposing while still retaining a degree of intelligence and fore-thought” (Exclaim! Canada’s independent music authority), “Energizing and engaging” (PureGrain Audio, USA) and “a gloriously black exercise in dark psychedelia” (BCFM Sunday Rock Show Review, UK), the New Jacobin Club never tire of dancing on genre boundaries with nods to classic goth, 70’s rock, power metal, blues, somber folk and even a hint of danceable industrial funk. The NJC has shared the stage with KMFDM, Voltaire, the Groovie Ghoulies, Nashville Pussy, the Nekromantix and countless others. Their signature vocal hooks and riffs have propelled them onto local and national Canadian independent radio charts, several movie soundtracks and even their own cable televised acoustic special.

“Soldiers of the Mark” the latest album from horror rockers New Jacobin Club is in my opinion the group’s strongest release to date, its infectious I haven’t been able to stop listening to it. In short, I love this fucking record.” – Extreme Metal Television

“Their newest album, Soldiers of the Mark, is chock full of complex arrangements that utilize all of these instruments along with a headbanging rhythm section of guitar, bass and drums that often lead in to a chorus of both male and female vocals singing in harmony. Just as your mother always told you, never judge a book by it’s cover. Before you realize it, you’ll be headbanging along as you progress through Soldiers of the Mark. ” – Damnation Mag

“The New Jacobin Club make the cast of the The Rocky Horror Picture Show look like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir! For certain, their live shows must be out of this world…Very good album, and one that deserves to be heard far beyond a horror rock niche audience.” – Hellbound

“Note the New Jacobin Club. Matched by three men, the three women bring such unconventional instruments as theremin, cello and keyboards to the usual metal range of drums, bass, and guitars. After the big hammering beat of opener The Mark, signalling the start of a war between the forces of dark and light, what a pleasant surprise to hear a female voice join the full-throated wail of vocalist The Horde – their harmony making Parade of Innocents a standout track.” – Saskatoon Star Phoenix

“Their latest full length, Soldiers Of The Mark, offers up ten forceful tracks of atmospheric, horror infused punk-rock sure to satisfy their audience’s ghoulish desire for hard hitting gothic tunage.” – The Punk Site

“The New Jacobin Club has crafted an purposeful and highly varied adventure sure to make it’s mark in the horror community. As such, Soldiers Of The Mark manages to skirt the redundancy that often results from playing to such a particular and narrow niche. Thanks to a rotating cast of vocalists and a host of sparingly interspersed instruments, the album can be enjoyed from start to finish, and during every eerie moment in between.” – The Punk Site

“The band hits hard and heavy, giving you a kick to the forehead and making you notice them and the great talent that is on display here. This is an album that brings different sounds and genres together to make a glorious racket.” – Altered Frequencies

“Soldiers of The Mark is The New Jacobin Club at a whole new level. The band is still one of gothic rock’s finest protagonists but the band has now set down firm marks in rock ‘n’ roll a whole with rewarding recognition surely set to follow.” – Ring Master Review

“I really loved the blend and the attitude of it so if you like horror punk definitely check this album out!” – The Blood Shed

“this album is actually plenty of fun. Some arrangements remind me of early Prong while others near the metalcore territory of the Avenged Sevenfold variety, especially solos, but every track is surprisingly different and has a catchy melody that leads the song to its very soon conclusion as the songs average about 3 minutes a piece. Every once in a while it’s good to listen to something that stands out from the pack. I’ll be interested in what these guys and a girl come up with on the follow up.’ – Eternal Terror

“Fiery and imposing while still retaining a degree of intelligence and fore-thought.” – Exclaim!

“Energizing and engaging!” – Pure Grain Audio

“a gloriously black exercise in dark psychedelia” – The BCFM Sunday Rock Show Review (UK)

“Worthy of a listen, if only to fuel your desire to see their amazing live show, which may change the way you see music forever.” BC Musician

“…a patchwork of Frankenstein of diverse influences, dueling guitars, enormous synths, pounding drums and bass, and most important, what really sets it apart – incredible musicianship.” – Planet S Mag

“…staright out of the Glenn Danzig (Misfits era) tradition – though much more engaging than Danzig ever was… If you ever wondered what Gwar’s interpretation of The Rocky Horror Picture Show might be like, The New Jacobin Club has your answer.” – Harvest Moon Music

“Romps with a breath that is vibrant and refreshing…wonderfully flamboyant, theatrical and wicked.” – Ring Master Review

Calgary hardcore noisemakers FALL CITY FALL are hitting the road with Edmonton’s Slum Lord for the No Parents, No Rules Tour that will see them embark across Canada from British Columbia to Quebec this coming June and July in support of their latest album 2013’s ‘Victus’ released on Victory Records plus promoting new material from their follow up set to be released later this year. The band also plans to give fans exclusive free download cards during the tour at the door of each concert for a new single that will be heard only live and later released online.

“There have been a lot of hardships within the past year for us as a band, but they’ve helped us grow and put us in the right mind set. With everything that’s happened whether it be member changes or writing and recording our new record at Rain City Studio with Stu Mckilliop, I think we owe it to our fans to come out and show them what we’ve been working so hard on, show them that we’re are still dedicated to fucking shit up and that this is not the end. There’s still a lot of fight left in us and we came to make waves.” comments vocals Keenan Pylychaty.

About:

Providing the remedy for today’s monotonous hardcore scene, FALL CITY FALL will not be ignored. The ultra-dynamic five piece band’s unforgiving, commanding sound is unleashed unto the world. With conviction in their hearts and balled up fists, they’ve dedicated their purpose to changing the music scene forever.

Like most bands, FALL CITY FALL began humbly in 2008 as a small project between three best friends in their hometown of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. With duel-vocalists, Nathan Zorn and Keenan Pylychaty leading the pack, guitarist Jordon Storey, drummer Nathan Pope and bassist Andre Urquidi, have mastered their crafts, complimenting the vocals with technical riffs and hard-hitting melodies. Picking up steam, they began to collect a very loyal fan base as they continued to play local shows for friends and family. Broadcasting their hardworking attitudes, they quickly became known for their wildly energetic performances and continued to book shows all over Canada. Taking a very large step away from the typical bands of today,FALL CITY FALL stands for unison in the music scene; playing music from the heart and expanding musical horizons.

Releasing their first EP, 1629, in 2010, FALL CITY FALL had finally created the finely-tuned, perfected sound they had been searching for. Revealing their unique blend of low growls, mid-screams, and clean vocals, they had successfully married progressive, hardcore and alternative to form a subgenre of metal that leaves crowds speechless in the best way. Hungry for more, they delivered the Dead Saints EP, solidifying their spot as one of the most prolific hardcore bands to hail from Calgary. Drawing in hundreds on their own, they have performed alongside bands such as THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, SILVERSTEIN, ARCHITECTS and label-mates COUNTERPARTS, showcasing their unrivaled energy to thousands across North America.

Preparing for world domination, FALL CITY FALL released their first full length release from Victory Records. Described as their most “intimate” and “intense” project yet, the alternative world greeted Victus with an overwhelming response, upon its release on January, 22nd 2013. Applauded for their honesty and the raw intensity of the vocals, Victus set FALL CITY FALL apart from their hardcore contenders, proving that with passion and conviction, anything is possible. In an industry full of musicians willing to compromise, FALL CITY FALL stands strong, dedicated to pushing boundaries and crossing lines.

Missing an opportunity to witness their musical battle ensue live will surely be a decision you’ll soon come to regret. With no end in sight, FALL CITY FALL has come to turn the hardcore scene upside down.
