Playthrough: “Kelly’s Meat Emporium” from Carcass?

Eight years after its predecessor “Surgical Steel” and named after a demo recorded by former Carcass drummer Ken Owen, “Torn Arteries” will finally appear on 17th September via Nuclear Blast, having been rescheduled by a collosal 13 months from its original date for obvious reasons. It will also mark the recording debut of guitarist Tom

Playthrough: “Luna” from Navian!

We may have only had one single from a debut album completed back in October at Middle Farm Studios (Toska, Bury Tomorrow, No Worth Of Man) but in “Luna“, Norwegian Instrumental Progressive Metallers Navian have once again raised the bar and impressed, making that album something of a mouthwatering prospect.

The band may have missed out on some

Playthrough: “In The Court Of The Dragon” from Trivium!

Having left behind scorched earth with a blistering brand new single “In The Court Of The Dragon” complete with music video shot on location in Cornwall, you might have thought Trivium would have taken a moment to breathe. But instead, they’ve decided to go down the left hand path and not only give us a

Playthrough: “Watchful” from KNEEL!

Multi instrumentalist Pedro Mau has got back behind the kit for a drum playthrough video for “Watchful” from 2020’s “Ailment” by KNEEL. The cut is one that features a guest vocal appearance from Equaleft frontman Miguel Ingles and while Pau complains he doesn’t have enough practice time, it sounds pretty damn good, especially as the

Playthrough: “Spiral To Oblivion” from Ophidian I!

For their Season of Mist debut Ophidian I entrusted Eliran Kantor (Testament, Soulfly, Havok) to creating some stunning artwork that bridges between the realism and science fiction. “Desolate” was also mixed and mastered by Christian Donaldson (Despised Icon, The Agonist, Cryptopsy), making sure that they made the best use of the opportunities presented to them
