Queensland crushers LYNCHMADA are about to slay across Australia on the WHIPLASH tour in support of the mighty MNEMIC (Nuclear Blast Records) and will unleash a new single “Immerser” to coincide with the tour.

The new single is now available through Truth Inc. Records via I-Tunes – buy it here: https://itunes.apple.com/au/album/immerser/id570122291?i=570122298&ign-mpt=uo%3D4)

Commenting on the new single, label manager Greg Shaw states: “Immerser” is Lynchmada at the band’s very best, it demonstrates what this incredible band is truly capable of. The song is epic, anthemic and more aggressive than previous material, and also offers an appeal to a cross section of heavy music listeners. I really look forward to hearing what Lynchmada will offer next.”

LYNCHMADA and Truth Inc. Records are also very pleased to announce that the band are now officially endorsed by one of the world’s leading guitar companies – ESP guitars. Commenting on the endorsement, guitarist Simon Connor states “We are so incredibly pleased to be a part of the ESP shredding community, a community that features some of the world’s leading metal bands. Be sure that our new axes will be getting a work out on the upcoming national tour alongside Mnemic”

Lvcifyre – Blackened Death Metal Legion Signs To Dark Descent Records

Posted in Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , on October 24, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Dark Descent Records has recently inked (in blood) a deal with London blackened Death Metal band Lvcifyre for the release of their as-of-yet-untitled sophomore full-length, which is due out in early 2013. The band commented:

“We are proud to announce the addition of Lvcifyre to the Dark Descent Records roster. The label will be responsible for releasing Lvcifyre’s second full-length opus and follow-up to the seminal debut The Calling Depths.

Over the past three years, Dark Descent has built up a notorious reputation of delivering the highest-calibre works of Death Metal Darkness from the underground and proudly propagating the Fallen Light. Thus, it is the perfect lurking place for Lvcifyre. With the new album, Lvcifyre will unleash the most wrathful and apocalyptic sonic plague heard by Man; manifesting the hidden forces beyond the threshold to awaken the Darkness lurking deep inside you! HDHM!”

Live footage of Lvcifyre performing the song “The Faceless One” can be seen/heard below!

CORROSION OF CONFORMITY – Eye For An Eye Reissue Releases On November 6th, via Candlelight Records

Posted in Hard Rock, hardcore, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , on October 24, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Candlelight Records confirms November 6 as the North American release date of CORROSION OF CONFORMITY’s Eye For An Eye. This special reissue has been remastered/packaged and includes the EP Six Songs With Mike Singing. Both titles have been out of print for years. It follows the successful release of the band’s self-titled album earlier this year. A deluxe digibook edition of the album, limited to 1000 for North America, will be available at limited retailers and via Candlelight’s official webstore. The digibook version includes extended liner notes and a rare pictorial gallery.

Twenty-six songs showcase the early sonic years of the North Carolina-based band. Far more punk than their later recordings, the album found an immediate fanbase. Amazon customers over the years have called the album an “undisputed classic,” while noting it is “for the true skaters of the mid-to-late-‘80s,” and “brings me back to a good time of hardcore/punk.”

Guitarist Woody Weatherman comments: “We were just kids when we wrote and recorded these tunes.” Vocalist/bassist Mike Dean notes, “Making that album was our dream and we worked hard to make it happen because it was the vehicle to allow us to go out and play two hundred shows a year, like the bands we looked up to – Black Flag, Bad Brains, D.O.A.”

___________________________________________

Originally released in 1984, Eye for An Eye featured the original lineup of Weatherman, Dean, drummer Reed Mullin, and vocalist Eric Eycke. Reissued to incorporate the 1989 EP by Mike Dean (who left the band between 1987-1992), Eye for An Eye is raw in sound but focused on message. The years that followed would see the band rise to worldwide popularity with breakthrough and Billboard-charting releases Blind and Deliverance.

Formed in Raleigh in 1982, CORROSION OF CONFORMITY quickly transformed heavy music. Politically charged and socially aware, the band has influenced countless others and today remains humble about their accomplishments. With over 1.1 million albums sold in the United States, the band continues to find new fans via nonstop touring.

“We had a lot of fun doing it and it’s great to have this album officially back out there again,” says Weatherman. “I had basically written this off as being our sloppy beginner’s effort but listening to it now, I really hear a few songs that hold up well,” adds Dean.
