Centipede is a heavy hitting Stoner Metal trio from Helsinki, Finland. Formed in 2011, they have released two well received EP’s and a 7” split. Sarnath is the Centipede’s debut full length album that resumes from where the band left off with their previous Brazen Bull EP. 8 songs of heavy Stoner Metal brings together the different sides of Centipede: slow stomping and fast pummeling. Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, part of the record forms a story of a doomed city that also gives its name to the album.

In addition to a digital release there will be a small batch of CDs and with the record release a two-song 12″ vinyl single that comes with a download code for the whole album. The album is released March 4th 2016 by Inverse Records.

BURY TOMORROW AT HMV

WHEN & WHERE?

Friday, January 29 – 6pm – hmv 363 Oxford Street, London – Tickets available at hmv.com/hmvlive/bury-tomorrow

One of the UK’s premier purveyors of Metalcore, Bury Tomorrow visit hmv to perform live and sign copies of their new album ‘Earthbound’.

Bury Tomorrow release their eagerly anticipated new album ‘Earthbound’, the follow up to 2014’s UK rock chart number 1 record ‘Runes’. Frontman Dani Winter-Bates says of ‘Earthbound’, “To me, it feels like the distillation of everything we’ve ever wanted this band to be about. We wanted pace, we wanted heaviness, and for me, personally, I wanted to write a record which was the sonic embodiment of a circle pit. I think we’ve done that.” But while fans of the heavy stuff will find plenty to grasp onto here, it’s the now trademark interplay between Dani and guitarist/singer Jason Cameron which sets ‘Earthbound’ apart. “We’ve always wanted to be like one vocalist in two parts and I think we’ve achieved that here.” Says Dani.

Bury Tomorrow’s ethos has always been a threefold focus on unswerving passion, unrelenting hard work and remorselessly driving, slash ‘n’ burn riffola. They’ve come far from small to 1,000+ capacity venues, but their values remain the same. Dani explains: “To me nothing has changed. I still want to meet every kid who is there, get a picture if they want one and sign something if they want it signed. That’s just the kind of people we are – that’s just the kind of band we are.”

Kelowna, BC’s leading Death Metal architects GOMORRAH are proud to unleash their latest album ‘The Haruspex’ out now as of Jan 15, 2016 via Test Your Metal Records,to follow-up their 2013 debut album ‘Perception’. The album is now streaming in full and available digitally plus on CD along with a BastionXGomorrah collaboration long-sleeve T-shirt. To get your copy and listen to the brutality of ‘The Haruspex’, please visit the following link:

http://gomorrahofficial.bandcamp.com/album/the-haruspex

Guitarist Bowen Matheson comments on the album:

“Jeff Bryan and I recorded the album at my home here in the Okanagan Valley, and we did the absolute majority of the writing in the pre-production and production stages. So much of the material had existed from several years ago, but was completely overhauled and reworked several times to end up in these tracks. We weren’t afraid to try things out and work over several revisions, or to take our hands off of a few of the songs that we felt very comfortable with after only the first revision. Jeff wrote the lyrics for the tracks in less than two months, and a lot of them were written and finalized in the vocal tracking stage, in front of the microphone.

We weren’t afraid to enable our music with production techniques. Many reviews have figured that we used samples or synthesizers in the songs, however the reality is that all of these droning noises, stutters, and otherwise ‘industrial’ sounds are actually either electric guitar or bass guitar, and abusing these instruments in front of their amplifiers with only two guitar effect pedals. The rest of these noises you hear are the interaction with the instrument and their environment.

We then delivered all of the tracks to Stuart McKillop of Rain City Recorders for mixing, and he blew us away. It didn’t take him long at all to catch onto what we were going for, and his consistency from one track to the next brought the tracks to the highest musical apex they could reach. Brad Boatright of Audiosiege handled the mastering, and he made certain that the product was of the outstanding final production quality for us. Brad has really yielded an outstanding quality for so many other abrasive sub-genres of metal and hardcore and he delivered that exact pinnacle of quality for us on this record as well.” – Bowen Matheson

In addition to the release of ‘The Haruspex’, GOMORRAH will be hosting CD release show in Vancouver, BC on February 27th @ 333 Clark with support from AngelMaker, Wormwitch, Atrous Leviathan and Vermin. Full event details can be found here.

Gomorrah - record release show - february 27 - 2016 - promo flyer - #MO99009

About:

GOMORRAH, originally formed in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia as a Black Metal outfit in 2006, has now grown into an assaulting Death Metal band – ready to unleash their boundary-pushing extreme sound on their second full-length album. The forthcoming album ‘The Haruspex’ was released on January 15, 2016 on Canadian label Test Your Metal Records.

“We have stepped up the quality of everything: the pre production, writing, structuring, lyrics, performances, mix and master have all been improved. The combination of those improvements translates to a major difference between our previous recordings, and the single “A Disaster’s Nightmare” – as well as our forthcoming full-length ‘The Haruspex’. Improvement, through effort and time.” Comments guitarist Bowen Matheson.

Their name is associated with a historical reference to a city mentioned in the Book of Genesis, the Torah and the New Testament. The band’s music conveys a claustrophobic animosity, through punishing guitar work, high-speed drumming, and guttural vocals. The lyrics provide an accessible gateway into the stories told in each song.

GOMORRAH has shared the stage with Suffocation, Cryptopsy, Archspire, Ancients, Striker, Origin, Beyond Creation, King Parrot, Ninjaspy, KenMode, Bison BC, The Agonist, Fuck The Facts, The Order of Chaos, Slumlord, and Fall City Fall.

CASKET ROBBERY – ‘Evolution Of Evil’ Coming In March On Mortal Music / Official Video Released

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, news, rock music with tags , , , on January 16, 2016 by Metal Odyssey

Casket Robbery - Evolution Of Evil - promo album cover pic - 2016 -#MO330099ILMFD

Madison, Wisconsin Death Metallers CASKET ROBBERY will release its full-length debut album Evolution of Evil March 4 on Mortal Music. CASKET ROBBERY is an up and coming Death Metal band created by the minds of Cory Scheider (LUNA MORTIS, EPICUREAN, ECHOTERRA) and Dustin Foesch.

New Noise Magazine has premiered the official video for the album’s opening track, “Annibelle’s Hell,” which can be viewed at this location.

Metal evokes deep emotions from elation to introspection to revulsion On the long-awaited follow-up to the band’s 2011 self-titled EP, CASKET ROBBERY runs the gamut, all the while burrowing its titanic sound deep into one’s psyche. The songs are at once pulverizing and memorable. Evolution of Evil is nothing short of pulse-pounding, unrelenting, and brutally catchy Death Metal.

Indeed, the undeniable grooves and hooks coupled with conceptual lyrics make CASKET ROBBERY the Death Metal band to watch in 2016.  Take a deep breath. Your unrelenting nightmare has just begun. Highly recommended for fans of JUNGLE ROT, GOJIRA, and PANTERA.

Evolution of Evil pre-order packages are available through Bandcamp. The CD can also be ordered from Big Cartel.

Casket Robbery - band promo pic - 2016 - #55MO33939ILMFD

CASKET ROBBERY have firmly established themselves as a brutal, heavy hitter in the live show realm by hitting the road hard after their first EP release.  Last year they took the time to re-evaluate and plan a devastating debut album release for 2016. They quickly brought in Greg Mueller to fill the drum spot and they brought on their own Cory Scheider to track, engineer, and produce a majority of Evolution of Evil.

The track “Pray for Death” features a solo from John Laux (WARBRINGER) and “Undead Living Hell” features a guest speaking role by horror filmmaker Cory Udler. With  the help of Chris Wisco (NOVEMBERS DOOM, JUNGLE ROT)  to mix the album and Cody Ratley (VILLAINS, DARKE COMPLEX) to master it, this will truly be a must-have album for 2016.

L.A. Thrash Masters ANGER AS ART To Release ‘Ad Mortem Festinamus’ March 11 On Old School Metal Records

ANGER AS ART - Ad Mortem Festinamus - promo cover pic - 2016 - #MO993393

Veteran L.A. Thrashers ANGER AS ART will release their new album Ad Mortem Festinamus March 11 on Old School Metal Records. On the highly anticipated follow-up to 2013 barnstormer Hubris, Inc., the quartet has done the improbable by creating a roaring Thrash Metal beast that doesn’t just raise the bar; it crushes it into dust.

A lyric video for album track “Aim for the Heart” can be absorbed into the bloodstream at this location or below:

Recorded, produced, mixed, and mastered by Ronald Sandoval at Rev Studios, Chino CA, Ad Mortem Festinamus (Latin translation: We Hurry into Death) is everything you’ve come to expect from ANGER AS ART…and more! Speeding recklessness, lacerating solos, and a shrapnel storm of riffs combine to make what will undoubtedly be considered one of 2016’s fiercest forays into Thrash Metal Armageddon.

Ad Mortem Festinamus is venomous, angry Thrash/Speed/Death Metal. If you feel that no one hears your voice and you’re pissed about it, then this is the album for you…because everyone is angry and ANGER is beautiful!

Pre-order Ad Mortem Festinamus here.

____________________________

BAND BIO:

You may read a number of bios where bands will extol their virtues of being the next big thing, as important as Led Zeppelin and inventor of the wheel. ANGER AS ART doesn’t do that.  They don’t need to.

To know what ANGER AS ART is, one can look at what they have been since 2004.  A first-rate, old school Thrash Metal band – rooted in the history created by the members of the band. Take one look at their lineage – members of Abattoir, Evil Dead, Bloodlust, Hirax, Reverend, Bitch… and know where they are going.

Two World Tours, shows with Destruction, Overkill, Testament, Death Angel, Exodus, Saxon, Agent Steel, ex- Maiden vocalists Bayley and DiAnno, Tankard, Onslaught, Katatonia and many more.

GADGET – Announces First New Album In Ten Years

On behalf of Swedish Grindcore stalwarts GADGET, Relapse Records is excited to announce that The Great Destroyer, the band’s first full-length in a decade, will see worldwide release this March 4th, 2016.

With the announcement, Noisey has premiered two new tracks from the album; stream “Violent Hours (For A Veiled Awakening)” and the title track “The Great Destroyer” now at THIS LOCATION.

Gadget - The Great Destroyer - promo album banner - 2016 - #MOILMFD33099

Though the band has largely flown under the radar in the general metal consciousness, Gavle, Sweden’s GADGET has roots that trace back to 1997. The band has always included influences from every other extreme genre that they’ve been fond of, like doom, sludge, hardcore punk, death metal, black metal and more, never letting genre boundaries stand in the way of their path of destruction. At the time of the band’s formation, GADGET existed as the grinding alter-ego of a Metalcore band whose members, including founder William Blackmon, simply switched instruments. Rikard Olsson and William teamed up in the winter of 1999/2000, and wrote the first GADGET demo as a duo.

GADGET then joined forces with Emil Englund to record a second demo, which was strong enough to grab the attention of Relapse Records, who signed the band for the release of their debut full-length Remote (2004), now featuring Fredrik NygrenRemote was extensively well-received, as was its 2006 follow-up The Funeral March. After touring Europe twice and performing at dozens of festivals worldwide, including at Maryland Deathfest and Auditory Assault in the US, GADGET has proven itself to be a relentless Grindcore force live as well as on record.

Gadget - The Great Destroyer - promo album cover pic - 2016 - #MOILMFD933999

Album cover artwork by Randy Ortiz.

A blistering high-speed assault of relentless grind, GADGET’s new album The Great Destroyer is a cohesive exercise in extremity that blends hints of Doom, Sludge and Death Metal with unadulterated, old-school Grindcore. The result is an album that is as memorable and infectious as it is pummeling and explosive. With The Great DestroyerGADGET has released their most accomplished material to date!

The Great Destroyer will see release on CD, LP and Digital formats. Physical preorders are available now via Relapse HERE; digital pre-orders can be found at GADGET‘s Bandcamp page HERE.

SNAKE EYES SEVEN “Medicine Man” Near Completion

Posted in Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Metal, Music, news, rock music with tags , , , on January 8, 2016 by Metal Odyssey

SNAKE EYES SEVEN - promo band pic - 2016 - #MO2336699MFILAD

Canadian Heavy Metal band SNAKE EYES SEVEN is in the final phase of completing their third release titled ‘Medicine Man’. Currently being mixed by renowned producer and lead guitarist Cam MacLeod at the Wolf Den in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, ‘Medicine Man’ will prove to be their best effort to date. “Just like ’13 Crows’ was leaps and bounds over our debut, ‘Medicine Man’ will crush anything prior to what we’ve done.” says founding member, guitarist, and chief song writer Cole ‘The Madman’ Stevens.

Once mixdown is completed the project then heads to L.A. to be mastered. When completed the album will contain 9 blistering tracks of heavy metal and some of the finest songwriting/music in the band’s history. Two videos were shot on location in December 2015 at the Twin D Ranch (Site Management-Dan Folkstra) in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and edited at Studio B in Victoria, British Columbia for the tracks ‘Medicine Man’ and ‘Can You Hear Me Calling’. Both videos were produced by Danny Deane, executive produced by Cole Stevens and executive assistance by Cat in the Hat Productions.

Snake Eyes Seven - yellow band logo - 2014

SNAKE EYES SEVEN has seen their share of tragedies, heart breaks, and band turnover through the years but that hasn’t deterred Stevens from moving forward. SNAKE EYES SEVEN has continued to evolve just as a great band should, musically and professionally. The new SNAKE EYES SEVEN is a group of seasoned music veterans. Cam MacLeod validates the band’s credibility and solidifies the musicianship as a whole. Bassist Mike Cillis yields the ‘heaviness’ to catapult the songs forward. Yet it’s the driving force of drummer Erik Young that wraps the package neatly into a monstrous metal sound. The Sabbath-esque qualities of SNAKE EYES SEVEN still remain evident but vocalist Danny Deane has the pure talent to deliver strong and powerful vocals with warm melodies yet he retains that raspy growl when necessary.

SNAKE EYES SEVEN is the complete package now. “I finally have ‘the’  band now says Stevens. It is a full team effort with all hands on deck. The guys are hungry and this is honestly the best band I’ve had musically, and professionally”.

‘Medicine Man’ mp3 Teaser

Details on the release date, cover artwork, track listing and the launch of their new video are forthcoming.

Chastain - promo band pic - 2015 - #MO33ILMF99ILMD9339

CHASTAIN – The legendary guitarist David T. Chastain returned in 2015, once again, with his eminent band CHASTAIN; delivering a new studio album of splendid Heavy Metal: We Bleed Metal. This album should be a training manual for those up and coming Heavy Metal bands that want to make their mark upon us veterans of real Heavy Metal. I am not freaking kidding.

David T. Chastain is (of course) astounding on We Bleed Metal, with vocalist Leather Leone delivering one of her most memorable of performances amongst her exalted Metal career. Drummer Stian Kristoffersen and bassist Mike Skimmerhorn are the super rhythm section, once again for CHASTAIN.

“All Hail The King” is one track from We Bleed Metal that I am proud to feature as Metal Odyssey’s METAL Pick Of The Day! Crank ‘er up all you Metal mutha’s and be grateful CHASTAIN exists. Metal Be Thy Name. – Stone

METAL CHURCH – New Album “XI” Slated For Release On MARCH 25th Via RAT PAK RECORDS

Posted in Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Metal, Music, news, rock music with tags , , , on January 5, 2016 by Metal Odyssey

Metal Church - XI - promo album banner - 2016 - #MO339399ILMFD

METAL CHURCH RETURN WITH LEGENDARY VOCALIST MIKE HOWE

__________________________

(January 5th, 2016 – New York, NY) – Hard rock titans Metal Church return with their latest album XI slated for release on March 25th via Rat Pak Records. The band’s 11th studio release also marks the return of legendary vocalist and front man Mike Howe. The reunion between Mike and Metal Church started in July of 2014 when Mike started working with Kurdt Vanderhoof on a side project he was forming with Nigel Glockler from Saxon.

Through these initial conversations, Kurdt convinced Mike to ultimately return to Metal Church. The idea was to see if they could recapture some of the magic from the 3 albums Metal Church released in the late 80’s: The Human Factor, Blessing In Disguise and Hanging In The Balance. Out of those sessions, XI was born and captures the sound that made the band fan-favorites in the 80‘s and mixes it with a new, invigorated sound for 2016.

“Sometimes I still can’t believe it myself, no one would have ever thought Mike would return after his departure almost 2 decades ago” says guitarist and founding member Kurdt Vanderhoof.

“At first I struggled with the decision to come back, but after hearing the riffs that Kurdt was writing, I just couldn’t resist, the music called to me and I wanted to be part of it!” says returning vocalist Mike Howe.

Metal Church has also released an official music video for the debut single from XI, “No Tomorrow.” The video can be seen above or at: https://youtu.be/ary17dRnC3o and was filmed in the Satsop Nuclear Facility, an abandoned nuclear power plant in Elma, Washington. The video was directed by Jamie Chamberlin of Black Dahlia Films and features a unique visual that ties in to the location.

A behind-the-scenes video on the making of the video for “No Tomorrow” was also recently released and can be seen below or here: https://youtu.be/Rr0bHRjfhmU.

XI was produced by Kurdt Vanderhoof and co-produced by Chris “The Wizard” Collier.

Rat Pak Records has also teamed up with Nuclear Blast Europe through a worldwide licensing agreement for distribution of XI in all territories outside of North America, South America and Japan. “We here at Rat Pak Records were very excited to receive a licensing request from Markus Staiger and his amazing team at Nuclear Blast Europe to release this new Metal Church XI into their international territories, ultimately insuring that this album will reach every corner of the globe,” states Rat Pak Records President Joe O’Brien.

Markus Staiger adds: “We are happy and proud to welcome Metal Church, an absolute metal legend, to the Nuclear Blast Europe family! When the self-titled debut album was released in 1984, it was a revelation to me – that this was how heavy metal had to sound like – with killer riffs and plenty of speed! We will do our utmost to help re-establish Metal Church here in Europe and get them back where they belong – in the ‘Champions League’ once again!“ King Records will be overseeing the new Metal Church release throughout Japan. “We are very excited to be releasing the new album by Metal Church,” adds “Ryo” Saito of King Records.

Swedish Death Metallers TEMISTO Releasing Debut Album On Pulverised In February

Posted in Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Metal, Music, news, rock music with tags , , , , on January 4, 2016 by Metal Odyssey

Temisto - promo album cover pic - 2016 - #MO33ILMLMD99344

Swedish Death Metal Duo TEMISTO will release its debut album on Pulverised Records February 26, 2016.  New track Above Sacred Ground is streaming at this location.

TEMISTO’s debut is the perfect mix of blasphemy and violence. Death Metal with bursts of intricate maze-like passages executed with razor-sharp precision, TEMISTO exudes a zeal for the obscure and unworldly. Formed recently in Stockholm, Sweden, TEMISTO consists of only two members: Leo Ekström Sollenmo and Sebastian Lindbom Gunnari.

The album was produced and engineered by ex-Morbus Chron frontman Robert Andersson with Elias Scharmer (ex-Abduction, ex-Mutilate) and then painstakingly mastered at Necromorbus Studio by Tore Stjerna (Watain, Desultory, Repugnant, etc). Also featuring the gracefully morbid artwork of Obsessed By Cruelty (Enforcer, Sabbat, Wolfbrigade, etc).

For fans of AUTOPSY, MORBUS CHRON, OBLITERATION, MORBID ANGEL, etc!

Track List:

1. Above Sacred Ground
2. Descent Into Madness
3. Abyssal Depths
4. Medusa
5. The Ritual
6. Succubus
7. Demiurge
8. Bestial Visions
9. Temple Of The Damned
10. Seance

TEMISTO - band promo pic - 2016 - #MO33ILMFLMD1099

BAND BIOGRAPHY

Leo was previously the frontman of a Death Metal act called Whore, releasing a demo-tape back in 2011. Whore split up around the same time and shortly after; Leo, Sebastian and two other guys formed what would later become Temisto. They recorded a two-track demo back in 2013 but eventually decided not to release it officially. By late 2014, the band realized that they had enough material for a full length album and a good opportunity to record it in a studio with Robert and Elias and so they recorded it all during two weeks in February / March of 2015.
