Posted in Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news with tags , , , , , , on January 8, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

Little Rock (AR) – Beatdown Death Metal Horde, Open Kasket, will release their debut full-length album, Trials of Failure, on February 7!

A crushing slab of Death Metal, Trials of Failure comes to you on digital and cassette formats by California-based label, Barbaric Brutality Records. The album will also be available via the Open Kasket Bandcamp page.

Thematically, Trials of Failure revolves around self deprecation and full criticism of one’s self. Sonically, the album is a demolition demonstration of caustic riffing and relentless pummeling. Add guest vocal spots on “Internal Threat” (Stan Liszewski of Terminal Nation), “Chain Whip” (Bryson Sherick of Backbiter), and “Chemical Death” (Jackson Edwards of Zashed), and the package is complete. Subtly is anathema. Force is paramount.

The album’s first single, “Internal Threat” feat. Terminal Nation), will be released on January 17.

Track Listing:

1. Ersatz (Sine Die)

2. No Value

3. Internal Threat (feat. Terminal Nation)

4. Bruised Sprainstein

5. Should

6. Putrid Existence

7. Defective

8. Chain Whip (feat. Backbiter)

9. Chemical Death (feat. Zashed)

10. Ripped Up

Polish Legendary VADER Issue 2024 Recap + Reveal Plans for 2025: New EP, Reissue of “Black To The Blind” + Recording New Full-Length Album in Autumn!

Vader 2025 logo created by Irena Ivanowa 

Polish Death Metal Legends VADER have posted on their Facebook Page wrapping up 2024 and revealing some predictions for 2025, which has just begun. In fact, the new year will also be full of news for the death metal band, which will release the EP “Humanihility” in spring, while in autumn 2025 they will begin recording for the new full-length album. Also planned for this year, are the reissue of the classic “Black To The Blind”, and the summer tour to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album “Litany”, which for the occasion will be performed live in its entirety.

Vader stated:
“The year 2024 is coming to an end. How was it for the band? As usual, it was very busy. We continued the 40th anniversary of Vader on tours in the USA/Canada and Europe. We played a few festivals in the summer – including Jarocin after 30 years of absence! At the end of August we returned to Grindstone Studio to record brand new material for an EP. We ended the year with the “Freezing Hell” tour, which went around the Baltic Sea. 2024 is also another year played with Michal Andrzejczyk behind the drums. A few months ago, Michał also joined the happy endorsers of TAMA drums.

And what about plans for 2025? The new year will be even more intense. First of all, this spring will see the release of the completely new EP “Humanihility” since the release of “Solitude In Madness” in 2020, as well as the long-awaited reissue of the classic album “Black To The Blind” from 1997 in a new cover with the original cover by Jacek Wiśniewski. Both titles will be released by Nuclear Blast. The recording session for the next full length Vader album will also start in the fall of 2025! Next year will also be Vader’s return to the stages of summer festivals. And we will appear at 20 of them. 2025 will also be the 25th anniversary of the release of the album “Litany”. Therefore, in the summer season, you will be able to hear the entire album as part of a concert set. Most of the songs from this classic album for the band have not been played since its premiere in 2000, and some have never been played. So 2025 will be absolutely explosive and truly vaderish \m/ And we already INVITE you ALL!! Expect our arrival under the banner of Massive Music \m/”

On upcoming EP, Vader issued the studio update:
“Yesterday in “Spiderclass” studio in Wroclaw we were working on leads to the upcoming NEW Vader EP “Humanihility” for Nuclear Blast. Mauser works on His part in home studio in UK too. This was a last step before final mix & master of the recording. Scott Atkins should finish the production in Grindstone Studio by middle of January. More details coming soon….”

SABER – “Without Warning” (Re-Release) Out On February 7th via ROAR

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , on January 6, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

SABER is an LA-based metal band known for their uniquely sleazy take on the NWOBHM sound. The band emerged organically in 2018 after lead guitarist Joel Dominguez – who was already working on some similar material with rhythm guitarist Jesus Delgado and bassist David Sanchez, received a message from singer Steven Villa about starting a new 80s inspired project.

A series of thundering tracks followed soon after, which were refined into their 2021 debut album Without Warning. Produced and released with the help of Trevor William Church, who also filled in as the drummer, the album was overwhelmingly positively received, being named as one of Bandcamp’s best albums of the year and outranking Exodus and Iron Maiden on BraveWords’ annual Top 30 list.

Saber- “Without Warning” [2020 Re-release] Pre-order: 

https://saber.rpm.link/woutwarning

Sonically and aesthetically, Saber’s artistic identity is firmly rooted in the 80s. With Jesus now as their drummer and the addition of guitarist Antonio ‘Yogi’ Pettinato, the fearsome fivesome pass influences from Judas Priest and Queensryche to Riot and Iron Maiden through a unique lens, creating a distinctly energetic audiovisual experience that resonates with their diverse and growing fanbase.

SABER:
Steven Villa – Lead Vocals
Joel Dominguez – Lead/Rhythm Guitar
Jesus Delgado – Drums
David Sanchez – Bass Guitar
Antonion Pettinato – Rhythm/Lead Guitar

ABOLISHMENT OF FLESH – Unleashes Savage Lyric Video for “Words Defy Truth” Off EP “Resurrecting Misanthropy”

Posted in Death Metal, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news with tags , , , , , on January 3, 2025 by Metal Odyssey


Live Lineup – Top Left – Ramon Cazares – Guitars, Vocals – Top Right – Izaak Chavez – Guitar
Bottom Left – Jake Lahniers – Bass, Backing Vocals – Bottom Right – Adrian Galindo – Drums

Texas, USA’s metal powerhouse Abolishment of Flesh has just released the intense lyric video for “Words Defy Truth” taken from their latest EP “Resurrecting Misanthropy”, which was released in 2023. The video, now streaming online, offers fans a visceral visual accompaniment to the band’s uncompromising sonic assault that blurs the lines between black, thrash, and death metal. Founder and multi-instrumentalist Ramon Cazares comments on the track:

“‘Words Defy Truth’ was written almost 10 years ago. I’m a big melody and somewhat tech fan, so this has been both challenging and fun to write and perform. This song is about some of the stuff that I saw and experienced when I was involved in church. It seemed like the deeper I got involved, the darker things got. It wasn’t necessarily nefarious but the manipulation, control, fear, and empty hope and promises were enough for me to walk away from religion.”

Track Listing:
1. Words Defy Truth (4:00)
2. Hater of Man (3:23)
3. Disavowed (4:04)

The track runs four minutes of pure, unadulterated metal aggression, which demonstrates why Abolishment of Flesh continues to push the boundaries of extreme music. With themes rooted in war, violence, disease, corruption, and the systematic collapse of human civilization, Abolishment of Flesh delivers an anti-human message about death and destruction.

Watch “Words Defy Truth” via its premiere on TheCirclePit at: https://youtu.be/vYJ1LwFnx7M

“Resurrecting Misanthropy” is out now at: Abolishmentofflesh.bandcamp.com and Spotify to satiate the appetites of metalheads worldwide. It is especially recommended for those with an interest in Kataklysm, Suffocation, and Deicide.

Seattle’s Action Metal War Machine, HYPERSTRIKE, Release Debut Single “Warning Shot”

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , on January 2, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

Seattle (WA) – Action Metal War Machine, Hyperstrike, has released the aptly named debut single, “Warning Shot,” on all digital platforms!

“Warning Shot” is an electrifying showcase of the band’s collective power. Chop Daddy lays down thunderous slap bass lines, driving the track’s explosive groove, while The Claw shreds through with razor-sharp, incendiary guitar riffs. Goblin commands the rhythm with machine-like precision and relentless intensity on drums, setting the stage for Brain Lord’s fierce, dynamic vocals to unleash the song’s raw energy. Together, the band delivers a high-octane anthem about a man pushed to his limits, crafting a powerful narrative of tension and resolve that hits as hard as their sound.

“Warning Shot” is available at the following links:

BIO:

Born in the Blade, forged in chaos—Hyperstrike is Seattle’s action metal war machine. Founded in 2024 by bass-slapping juggernaut Ben “Chop Daddy” Bennett, this band doesn’t play music; they drop sonic bombs. With a shadowy past tearing through thrash titans Warbringer and Bonded by Blood, and reigning as the “Lord of the Low End” in sci-fi shredders Xoth, Bennett knew exactly what kind of beast he was building.

First, he wrangled in Ilya, the shredder known as “The Claw,” an assassin with riffs sharper than steel. Then came Adon, the “Brain Lord“—a maniacal force spitting venomous truths, carrying the fire from his days in Ghost Ship Octavius and the twisted depths of Spiritual Suicide. Together, they built a soundtrack for the end of the world: songs about nuclear meltdowns, cage fighters, and kings of the slain.

The final weapon in their arsenal? Josh, a drum-detonating powerhouse known as “Goblin Hammer,” whose percussive assault forged their chaos into a relentless onslaught. Hyperstrike is a raw, unfiltered force with hearts of steel and a taste for mania. No apologies. No survivors. Just unrelenting aggression. Brace for impact because once the trigger drops, nothing will ever be the same.

Line-Up:

Ben (Chop Daddy) Bennett – Speed Chopper Bass

Adon (Brain Lord) Fanion – Maniacal Pyro Vocals

Ilya (Siberian Claw) Ignatov – Elite Assassin Shred Guitar

Josh (Goblin Hammer) Hoffman – Master Drum Blaster

Happy New Year! Some Metal And Non Metal Thoughts On 2024

Posted in classic rock, Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , , , on December 31, 2024 by Metal Odyssey

Another year is about to come to a close and I have some random thoughts to share; both Metal and not so Metal. I could easily write volumes of thoughts down, yet I’ll stick to this being an easy read.

We live in a crazy and dynamic world right now; then again, when has there been a time it hasn’t been? We sadly said goodbye to many musicians that have passed away in 2024. Paul Di’Anno, Jack Russell, Dickey Betts, James Kottak, C.J. Snare and Toby Keith are a grouping that hit home for me. Legends all and God bless them. Yes, there were so many others that left us from all music genres.

Above: photo I took of the 2024 Solar Eclipse

The Solar eclipse happened on April 8th and my family and I had front row seats to this event; right in our own backyard in Western Ohio. We all wore those weird cardboard sunglasses that were given out or sold everywhere to look at it straight on. It didn’t get black as night; yet that solar eclipse did come close to doing so. A fun experience it was.

Above: (1987) Topps Rickey Henderson 1986 All-Star insert/subset card

Rickey Henderson was a Major League Baseball player I grew up watching and rooting for. He’s one of my favorites ever. Rickey passed away on December 20th of 2024, leaving behind an incredible Hall of Fame career; best remembered as a member of the Oakland A’s. Rickey did play for over 4 seasons with the New York Yankees and remains the all-time stolen base leader in MLB. God bless him.

Thank you to all for visiting and supporting Metal Odyssey this past year and have a safe, healthy and prosperous new year!

A very special thank you to Tanis Enos for her amazing and popular contributions to Metal Odysseys’ content; with her concert reviews, interviews, album reviews and photography.

Thank you to Scott Coverdale, ALL the PR agencies, bands, record labels and every visitor for making this Metal Odyssey machine a success for over 16 years! Metal be thy name. – Stone

I picked up this 8-track cartridge of Black Sabbath ‘Paranoid’ (top photo) for 25 cents at a thrift store a week or so ago. The tape is intact. I love this band and embrace the nostalgia of such an old-time music medium. The ‘Paranoid’ album was released back in 1970. Dig it, my brothers and sisters. 👊🏻
