DEEPSEND RECORDS SIGNS HUMILIATION

Malaysian war-themed Death Metal soldiers, Humiliation, have signed a multi-album deal with Deepsend Records. Their as-of-yet untitled fourth album will be released in early 2013.

Musically, Humiliation focus on mid-tempo headbangers with heavy anthems of war, lack of humanity and minimal guitar solos. Humiliation’s war has been waged and will continue on until all in their path have been destroyed or join their hellbrigade.

Even at the “Dawn of Warfare,” the band will “Seek to Survive” marching “From Strength to Strength” to raise the Malaysian Death Metal Flag!!

HUMILIATION

DEEPSEND RECORDS SIGNS ETERNAL REST

Deepsend Records is proud to announce the signing of Australia’s ETERNAL REST. The label will release the band’s debut album, Prophetic, in early 2013. The album was recorded and mixed by Joe Haley (Psycroptic).

Eternal Rest hail from Brisbane, Australia. The band’s powerful energy can be heard on Prophetic, but must be experienced in a live setting to be truly appreciated. This young band is surging forward with their excellently crafted heaviness from Down Under. Their brand of Death Metal is a mix of Immolation, Psycroptic and Martyr, with a heavy dose of ass-kickery.

A pre-production recording of the track “Preaching the Decimation of Spheres” can be heard below!

Eternal Rest have played with many national and international artists such as: The Black Dahlia Murder, Ulcerate, Sybreed and Alchemist, to name a few. The future looks bright for these Aussies. Hellbent on making a mark alongside countrymen Psycroptic and Beyond Terror Beyond Grace, Eternal Rest’s execution is unmatched.

Equal parts crushing and ferocious, maintaining a level of musicianship that should be applauded in a scene that’s been saturated with technical nightmares and slow-plodding meh.

ETERNAL REST

KISS RULES! Wanna See My KISS ARMY Patch I Bought? It’s Really Cool…

Posted in classic rock, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, heavy metal albums, metal music, Music, rock and roll, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , , on August 30, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Last Sunday I went out shopping for back-to-school stuff with the girls. Shopping for school supplies can get very boring for a middle-aged Metalhead; unless you stumble upon cool KISS stuff, like the KISS Army patch you see above! Whoa!

One of the stores we went to is called Michaels. This store sells arts and crafts galore. It’s a very clean and organized store too. Michaels is North America’s largest arts and crafts retailer, with 1,079 namesake stores.

As I walked around Michaels I saw this KISS Army patch for sale on an endcap display. Since my first KISS Army patch (on my first denim jacket) has been long gone for decades, I decided it was time to renew! What’s the price for this KISS Army patch you ask? $5 in U.S. funds. Whoa.

Here is what a Michaels store looks like:

In case you wanted to know, here is what the cardboard backing (the patch is on) looks like:

As you can see in the above photo, C&D Visionary Inc. distributes this cool KISS Army patch. C&D Visionary Inc. is a leader in selling to merchants tons of pop-culture and Rock ‘N Roll related items. They have a website, only it’s a wholesale site for retailers with valid sellers permits only. Still, it’s a fantastic site to check out if you’re  not a retailer: http://www.cdmerch.com

NEUROSIS – Unveil Artwork And Track Listing For Tenth Album, ‘Honor Found In Decay’

Posted in experimental metal, Heavy Metal, metal music, Music, post metal, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , on August 30, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Anticipation for Honor Found In Decay, the tenth studio album by NEUROSIS, is starting to intensify, as we count down the days until its North American release date on October 30th. Like an eclipse, a brand new NEUROSIS album is not a frequent occurrence and when it comes around, every last moment must be savored. For this momentous event, all the forces are aligned.

NEUROSIS forged the songs on Honor Found In Decay with the revered Steve Albini, marking their fifth collaboration with the engineer in their longstanding relationship. Their monolithic sound captured at Electrical Audio studios, Chicago, the seven tracks were then mastered by John Golden at Golden Mastering in Ventura, California.

Aesthetics have always been paramount for NEUROSIS and with Honor Found In Decay, Steve Von Till, Scott Kelly, Noah Landis, Jason Roeder and Dave Edwardson’s musical vision is brilliantly evoked by NEUROSIS‘ visual guru Josh Graham. And with that, we proudly unveil the cover art and track listing for this prodigious album, which is shaping up to be one of the biggest releases in the band’s extensive history.

Honor Found In Decay Track Listing:

1. We All Rage In Gold

2. At The Well

3. My Heart For Deliverance

4. Bleeding The Pigs

5. Casting Of The Ages

6. All Is Found… In Time

7. Raise The Dawn

NEUROSIS have been invited to perform at ATP’s Nightmare Before Christmas at Camber Sands Holiday Camp, England on November 30th through December 2nd, which Steve Albini’s band Shellac have been asked to curate. Keep your ears to the streets for a plethora of pending announcements on NEUROSIS in the weeks ahead including music from Honor Found In Decay, additional live appearances and more.
