Vancouver’s Auroch returns with new music for the first time in nearly four years. This April, 20 Buck Spin will unveil the band's new “Stolen Angelic Tongues” MLP - the band’s first new release since 2016’s “Mute Books” LP - and its extended/renamed CD counterpart, “All The Names of the Night”.

This April, Allegaeon will hit the road for a massive stateside headliner, featuring Fallujah, Entheos, and Etherius as direct support.

Listen to the new single “To the Slaughter” below.

Every so often, a band comes along that generates praise and attention for all the right reasons, and not always due to having a label or heavy marketing power behind them. Wisconsin-based dissonant technical death metal outfit Ara has already achieved that with their completely independently released 2012 EP, “The Blessed Sleep”, and 2014 debut album, “Devourer of Worlds”.

Australia’s premier extreme metal export, Thy Art Is Murder  are proud to announce the addition of drummer Jesse Beahler.

In celebration, the band have released a drum playthrough for “Human Target”, which can be seen below.

Recently re-emerged technical death metal outfit Abiotic is proud to announce their signing to the ever-expanding extreme metal label, The Artisan Era. Active since 2010, Abiotic sprang to life with an urgent sense of immediacy both live and studio recording-wise that soon saw them signed to Metal Blade Records after their 2011 independent EP, “A Universal Plague”, was released. The band toured relentlessly every year from then on while also dropping their 2012 debut album, “Symbiosis”, and their sophomore album, “Casuistry”, in 2015. 

Topeka, Kansas-based brutal death metal horde Unmerciful are set to unleash “Wrath Encompassed”, their angriest and most destructive album to date.

“Wrath Encompassed” is the band’s third full-length, and first since signing with Willowtip Records.

Technical Death Metal quintet Ergodic will release its self-titled debut EP on March 9th, 2020.

Check out EP track “Lashed to Control” below!

The forthcoming 3-song beast is a decimating blast of tech-death, one filled with tasty neoclassical riffs and blistering solos, and featuring lyrical content about celebrity idolatry, addiction, and insanity. What more could you possibly want?

Ahead of an appearance at this year’s UK Tech Fest, German technical death metal assailants Controversial have started their year with a bold statement on humanity, and the video single release of “Formicidae”.
