Critical Praise:

“I will forever embrace quality underground Metal, especially underground Black Metal. Helleborus have without question, tapped into my Black Metal psyche with their new song. I honestly cannot stop listening to Coils.” – Metal Odyssey

“The chiming riffs and exotic lead guitar melodies in “Coils” do indeed generate an air of mysticism that surrounds the song, but the music also rocks very hard. The thundering drums and rumbling bass rhythms give the song a sense of tangible power, and the jagged, howling vocals cut like a serrated knife. It’s a bulldozer as well as a spellcaster…the song is also catchy as hell, and it should hold special appeal to fans of bands such as The Devil’s Blood, Satyricon, and Belphegor.” – No Clean Singing

CORONATUS – To Release New Studio Album “RABEN IM HERZ” This December!

Posted in Hard Rock, Heavy Metal, Metal, news, rock music with tags coronatus, metal albums 2015, Metal News, metal odyssey, symphonic metal on August 17, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

Stuttgart Germany’s Gothic/Symphonic Metal band Coronatus are to enter Klangschmiede Studio E, later this month to record their new album “Raben Im Herz” – scheduled to be released on December 4, 2015 via MASSACRE RECORDS – w/ Markus Stock!

Drummer Mats Kurth comments:

“The new songs will feature even more instrumental parts, which also changed our songwriting process: Our previous songs mostly consisted of up to 90% vocals, which turned out to be a bit limiting for us. Now, with additional instrumental parts, the songs will be more varied and it’s also more fun for us to play them.

There will also be a few changes in store for Anny and Carmen, who will both use a broader vocal range on the new record.  This album will rock!”

Additionally, the record hit the #21 spot on Billboard’s Rock chart, #7 on the Hard Rock chart, #13 on the Independent chart and, boasting ten mutinous tracks of thick, predatory, subterranean metal, continues to reap the exaltation of fans and critics globally. Purchase your copy today at http://www.metalblade.com/goatwhore.

Live Testimonials:

“GOATWHORE commanded the whole room from the second they took the stage, and attending a show… should be a no-brainer for any and every metalhead in North America.” – Metal Assault

“Lead man Ben Falgoust stands as a reputable showman in his continuous engagement with the crowd – the high-fiving and fist bumping with patrons shall never cease. And by the time the leather lads hit their smash, “Apocalyptic Havoc,” no one was spared. The concert going trinity of steam, screams, and Satan were on tap making for a great performance and satiated audience.” – National Rock Review

“When the front row wasn’t headbanging with arms adhered to the monitor, they were getting whipped by hair, baptized in sweat, and repeatedly fist bumped by the ever-invigorated frontman Ben Falgoust… Intimacy and intensity defined the night…” – Metal Life

GREY SKIES FALLEN – NYC-Area Death/Doom Act Releases “Earthwalker” Two-Song Single As Free Download; Preorders For Limited 7″ Vinyl Version Available

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music with tags free downloads, grey skies fallen, Metal News, metal odyssey on August 9, 2015 by Metal Odyssey

NYC-area Death/Doom quintet, GREY SKIES FALLEN, has issued the latest in their extensive roster of independently released recordings, with the Earthwalker single, via a free digital download, as the 7″ vinyl version is completed, all while the band continues to construct material for their next impending LP.

With merely two-songs, Earthwalker does an impressive job of delivering a solid new serving of GREY SKIES FALLEN‘s mammoth musical ways, with over thirteen minutes of brand new material. This is some of the final material to be recorded at Audio Playground (RIP), with additional recording handled at Suffolk Recording Studios, with the tracks recorded, mixed and mastered by Keith Moore.

The namesake track, Earthwalker dominates the A-side, its immediately massive delivery fueled by a steady pace backing a grand and epic aura, with searing, blackened scorn infiltrating the powerful layering of multiple vocal styles which take control of the track.

Side B‘s nearly seven-minute Safe Passage, with a more plodding momentum, shows each element of the five-member faction pushing to the surface; intoxicating waves of synth, pummeling bass thunder, interwoven guitar leads and that dynamic array of vocal styles culminate within one of the most inspiring epic doom tracks from the band to date.

Earthwalker is set for October release on 7″ vinyl, the pressing limited to 120 copies on grey/green swirl wax with a lyric insert, the full-color artwork throughout once again provided by Travis Smith (Death, Opeth, King Diamond) as with other prior GREY SKIES FALLEN releases. In addition, the band has graciously released the EP as a FREE digital download to their loyal fanbase.

Stream GREY SKIES FALLEN’s Earthwalker 7″ in full – with FREE downloads and vinyl preorders, via Bandcamp now at THIS LOCATION.

GREY SKIES FALLEN, with members also currently hailing from the likes of Buckshot Facelift, Brave The Waters and more, is currently immersed in the writing process for their upcoming fifth album to be recorded late this year and released in 2016.

Stand by for further info on GREY SKIES FALLEN, as their new album comes together and new live shows are confirmed throughout the area in the coming weeks.
