A message from As I Lay Dying:

Denver, USA’s Pile Of Priests has just signed with Extreme Metal Music a subsidiary of Italy’s Rockshots Records for the release of their self titled album.

As of today, the album is available for pre-order along with its first single “Exile Unto Divination” to served up as an appetizer for listeners worldwide. 

Sweden’s finest modern metal heroes Amaranthe have entered the studio in Denmark to start working on the recording of their new album - just one hour before the Danish borders were closed!

Swedish visionary metallers Soilwork have released a brand new song called “Desperado”. It is the second instalment in Soilwork’s “Feverish” trilogy, which might also eventually end up becoming a so far unknown entity.

It follows the band’s globally acclaimed new album, “Verkligheten” (album of the month in Metal Hammer, Rock Hard, Aardschok and Scream), which was released in January 2019.

High on the well- deserved success of their latest album, “Endorphin”, Moldovan extreme metal outfit Infected Rain has just added many more live dates for the summer of 2020!

The band, who took the heavy music world by storm with the release of their fourth record released in the end of 2019 via Napalm Records, unleashes fierce screams and growls, heavy riffs and pounding beats combined with ingenious samples that make Infected Rain’s style an energetic blend of the best modern metal styles of today. 

An inflammation of harsh soundscapes exploding in a striking symbiosis of deep growls and clean female vocals: Sojourner’s new album, “Premonitions”, to be released on May 8th, 2020, via Napalm Records, rises like an upcoming vortex that leaves the violent, yet undeniably beautiful stylistic evolution of their sound in an exceptional fusion of folk and atmospheric black metal.

French melodic death metal unit Temnein will release their third full-length, “Tales of Humanity and Greed” this Spring.
