The architect of crossover thrash is back. Nameless Grave Records is proud to announce the official release of the self-titled debut from SUBVERSION TRIGGER, the new Seattle-based powerhouse led by Les Evans (Cryptic Slaughter). The album will be available on CD and Cassette on February 25th, with pre-orders launched!

“I wanted to get back to something that felt immediate and dangerous,” says Evans regarding the project. “Subversion Trigger is the sound of us not overthinking it. Just raw, crossover energy with the volume pushed past the limit.”

For fans of the blistering speed of Municipal Waste, Excel, Cryptic Slaughter and the manic delivery of The Accüsed, this release is an essential addition to the crossover canon. With the digital version already circulating, these limited physical editions serve as the definitive “artifact” for collectors and die-hards alike.

LUCIFUGUM – Ukrainian Black Metal Coven Returns With The “Adanom” Gatefold 7″ EP

Posted in Black Metal, black metal bands, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , on February 1, 2026 by Metal Odyssey

Ukrainian black metal stalwarts LUCIFUGUM return with Adanom, a new gatefold 7” EP that stands as one of the most significant chapters in the band’s 31-year journey along the Damned Path. Released on January 31st, 2026 via Aesthetic Death, Adanom is a defiant statement of Satanic Black Metal Authentism: underground, uncompromising and forged in the harshest of circumstances.

The release marks the powerful return of Stabaath to vocal duties, following a serious throat injury, bringing renewed venom and intensity to the Coven’s sound. Created, recorded, and mixed under the shadow of missile and drone attacks in the Ukrainian cities of Mykolaiv and Kharkiv, Adanom carries a raw, unfiltered urgency that reflects both resilience and unwavering conviction.

Track-list:

Side A

  1. AB(∞)RH(ВОЛЯ) – 00:57
  2. Смола у крові нашій – 05:46 (Dedicated to all defenders of Ukraine, to everyone who keeps his/her own front line.)

Side B

  1. Lucispear – 05:09 (Dedicated to the first Rebel, the first torch of Truth. To the One who is an example of Fortitude and Purposefulness.)
