Kaotoxin Records has announced the signing of Swiss rockers THE ERKONAUTS and worldwide re-release of the band’s full-length debut, I Did Something Bad.

Mixed and mastered by SAMAEL‘s Drop at the Downtone studio, I Did Something Bad was independently released in January 2015. The demand for the album was so high, the band had to repress it twice. After tours in the USA, Asia and Europe, the Swiss Rock machine signed to Kaotoxin Records. In August the band, which features two ex-members of SYBREED, recorded two brand new tracks for the album’s reissue.

Stream album track “The Great Ass Poopery” at:

soundcloud.com/kaotoxin/the-erkonauts-the-great-ass-poopery

The Kaotoxin Records reissue of I Did Something Bad drops February 12th.

Along with 6:33, DRAWERS and THE LUMBERJACK FEEDBACK, THE ERKONAUTS are part of Kaotoxin’s heavy rock dream team. THE ERKONAUTS bring something fresh to the table with a sound that lies somewhere between mid-90s SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, early SYSTEM OF A DOWN, and PRIMUS, with a smart, Progressive, Alt-Rock / Metal / Punk fusion of their very own.

Satyricon - band logo - pentagram - 2015 - #MO99330033

As reported by Germany’s ROCKHARZ Festival:

20 years have passed since a Norwegian band released one of the most groundbreaking albums of Black Metal history, continuing a groundbreaking character for the dissemination of a genre out of a small, rather subcultural audience in a new flow of Extreme Metal sounds. The band was SATYRICON and the masterpiece called NEMESIS DIVINA. Now, 20 years later, SATYRICON have decided to play on a few selected concerts, this seminal album, in all of its unique and immeasurable entirety. We are proud that one of those rare shows will go with us on our stage! Hail to Mother North!

Metal Odyssey’s METAL Pick Of The Day Is: SYMPHONY X “Nevermore” (Official Lyric Video)

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, Music, news, rock music with tags , , , on November 28, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

Symphony X - Underworld - promo album cover pic - 2015 - #06193333

SYMPHONY X – On July 24th of this year, New Jersey’s Progressive Metal giants, SYMPHONY X, released their 9th studio album, via Nuclear Blast: Underworld. What a treat this album has been for my inner, middle and outer ears! Did I say outer ears? I am getting ahead of myself, I guess. Russell Allen is just boss on vocals; I needed to get that in.

I absolutely love the way SYMPHONY X meticulously piece together the song and an outstanding example of this, from Underworld, is their musical creation: Nevermore. Below is the lyric video of Nevermore for you to hear and read along to. SYMPHONY X are at the pinnacle of their Progressive Metal game with both this song and their entire Underworld album for that matter, in my Metal opinion. Simply fabulous stuff. Metal Be Thy Name. – Stone

Metal Odyssey’s METAL Pick Of The Day Is: BATTLECROSS “Not Your Slave” (Official Video)

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, news, rock music with tags , , , on November 27, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

Battlecross - Rise To Power - promo album cover pic - 2015 - #0528MOBC

BATTLECROSS – In essence, I could very well state that the entire Rise To Power studio album from BATTLECROSS is Metal Odyssey’s METAL Pick Of The Day. With ten songs of Thrash Metal splendor, Rise To Power is a megastar Metal release for 2015, in my Metal opinion. Track number 2 from this album, Not Your Slave, is the song featured here today and it’s a strong example of just how Rise To Power plays out.

BATTLECROSS is a Midwest Thrash Metal band that the state of Michigan should be extremely proud of. I am ecstatic that BATTLECROSS has grabbed the torch of Thrash Metal, helping to secure the genre for many years to come. Rise To Power is the third studio album for BATTLECROSS on the Metal Blade Records label. In the event you haven’t checked out this band, you darn well should.

Listen below and hear for yourself! I hope you enjoy this song as much as I do. Metal Be Thy Name. – Stone

Metal Odyssey’s METAL Pick Of The Day Is: FALLEN ANGELS “Nightmare” (Lyric Video)

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music with tags , , , , on November 24, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

Fallen Angels - World In Decay - promo album cover pic - 2015

FALLEN ANGELS – Seattle Washington’s FALLEN ANGELS have taken me by incredible surprise this year, with their enormously grand album of Thrash Metal glory titled: World In Decay. As an older Thrashaholic like myself, I feel reassured that old school Thrash Metal will live on, due to the likes of FALLEN ANGELS. What a thrill this album is from these fine Thrashers! Holy shit it’s really good.

Track #2 on World In Decay is Nightmare (listen below). While listening to Brad “Bradzilla” Kennaugh on vocals, he takes me back to a time when Thrash on vinyl was freaking king. Erik Hanson and Matt Be Roth are the guitar duo that blazes through this song below, like hell’s wildfire out of control! Bassist Carl Larsson and drummer Steve Spitzbart kick ass. How’s that for being plain-speaking? Whoa.

Look for World In Decay to make a STRONG showing in my year-end list of Best Metal Albums of 2015. Metal Be Thy Name. – Stone

Metal Odyssey’s METAL Pick Of The Day Is: ARMORED SAINT “Win Hands Down” (Official Video)

Posted in Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Metal, Music, rock music with tags , , , , on November 23, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

Armored Saint - Win Hands Down - promo album cover pic - 2015 - #ASMO05313

ARMORED SAINT – From The City Of Angels came one of the greatest Classic Metal bands of our time (IMO) and I’m talking about ARMORED SAINT. This band of Metal warriors returned in 2015 with their seventh full-length studio album, via Metal Blade Records: Win Hands Down. This album is a winner, loaded with nine fabulous songs to satisfy us die-hard old schoolers of Metal.

Win Hands Down was produced by ARMORED SAINT bassist Joey Vera and is an enormous follow-up to 2010’s La Raza studio album, in my Metal opinion. John Bush sings in his awesome and unique fashion on this album; you can hear for yourself in the music video below. I don’t know what it is, yet the vocals of John Bush resonates splendid Metal vibes throughout my Metal brain and veins. It’s always been that way. Cool.

The entire band is on freaking fire throughout Win Hands Down. Guitarists Phil Sandoval and Jeff Duncan are a superb duo to take in. The rhythm section of Joey Vera on bass and Gonzo Sandoval on drums are a pounding potion of ear euphoria for me! The bridge in the song Win Hands Down is something else too; very different as you’ll hear. Whoa. Yeah, I dig ARMORED SAINT and hopefully you’ll dig their music video for the title track of their album: Win Hands Down. Metal Be Thy Name. – Stone

TODAY IS THE DAY – Month-Long European Tour With Grime Commences Today

Posted in Metal, metal music, Music, rock music with tags , , , on November 21, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

Today Is The Day - Grime - European Tour Promo Poster - 2015 - #MO777NMSS33FD

TODAY IS THE DAY has crossed the Atlantic to begin a month-long tour of Europe, beginning today, Saturday, November 21st, with support for the entire trek to be provided by Italian sludge savages, Grime.

The feral experimental metal trio TODAY IS THE DAY sees founding frontman Steve Austin currently flanked by bassist Trevor Thomas and drummer Douglas Andrae. The band has been touring relentlessly since the release of their tenth studio full-length, Animal Mother, released last year on Southern Lord, taking to the road for long stints with Lazer/Wulf and Abigail Williams; their upcoming European tour will showcase them at their gnarled, refined best.

On their way out of the country, Austin announced: “Our European tour starts this Saturday in Brussels. The tour is of course still on and we are not cancelling. We are going to go about our lives as we normally do and play music for our fans and friends in Europe, not afraid. I hope to see you there! We are with you Europe! Let it rip, light it up!”

TODAY IS THE DAY’s video for “Heathen” is playing RIGHT HERE or below:

…And their “Masada” video HERE or below:

Animal Mother is available from Southern Lord digitally HERE and on CD and LP HERE.

Steve Austin has also been occupied recently with scoring the soundtrack to Addiction: A 60’s Love Story, a vice-soaked feature-length directed by Tate Steinseck. The trailer is playing at Entertainment Tonight HERE and fronting Montreal-based psychedelic post-hardcore quintet, LAE, as witnessed on the band’s debut 2xLP Break The Clasp.

Rex Shachath - promo band pic - 2015 - #03033MMMSS

https://rexshachath1.bandcamp.com/album/revocation-of-the-blood-elect

Tackling social issues such as the state of modern society and man’s exorbitant desire for wealth at the expense of our natural world, the band have harnessed a sound more befitting to such issues in comparison to their debut release Sepulchral Torment. Old school ideals kneaded with modern Death Metal notions on a much more up to date and punchier production is what we have here.

Rex Shachath- Revocation Of The Blood Elect - promo album cover - 2015 - #33003MMNSS24

Artwork (as seen above), was completed by UK artist Godmachine famed for his work with bands such as Suicide Silence, Bring Me The Horizon, Cannibal Corpse and Job For A Cowboy (to name a few). The EP was recorded, mixed and mastered by Joe Thompson at Sonic Forge Studio, Cardiff, Wales.

Destination Nowhere, the riotous new debut album by Polish d-beat/crust ragers, STURMOVIK, is out this week via Selfmadegod Records, with the entire album having been made available for streaming.

Arising from the ashes of Wild Bitches, STURMOVIK contains two current members of Polish death metal horde, The Dead Goats – Paweł Bartulewicz and Radosław Pierściński (Neuropathia, ex-Squash Bowels), with the lineup rounded out by Błazej Kasprzak, Mariusz Rzepnicki and Krzysztof Drabikowski.

Recorded earlier this year, the band’s Destination Nowhere debut album boasts nine energetic anthems culminating into a half-hour of powerful, infectious tunes set to smash the system to nothingness. The caustic d-beat/crustpunk with eerie, melodic overtones in the outfit’s delivered attack on Destination Nowhere will undoubtedly be something all fans of Disfear, Wolfbrigade, Genocide SS, Victims, Hellshock and Martyrdöd will want to investigate.

STURMOVIK’s Destination Nowhere has been unchained in its entirety at THIS LOCATION or below:

Destination Nowhere is now available on CD/digital download directly through the Selfmadegod Records webstore HERE or BandCamp HERE. CDs will be available in the US via Selfmadegod’s stateside mailorder outlet, Earsplit Distro, shipping Black Friday, November 27th; place stateside preorders HERE.
