German Death Metallers TEMPLE OF DREAD will release their fourth full-length “Beyond Acheron” on August 11, 2023 via Testimony Records on various vinyl LP versions, CD and digitally. It was produced by drummer Jörg Uken at his Soundlodge Studio and features cover artwork by Italian artist Paolo Girardi. Marc Grewe (ex – MORGOTH, INSIDIOUS DISEASE) contributed guest vocals to ‘The Plague’ and Henri Sattler (GOD DETHRONED) a guitar solo to the album’s title track. The band has just premiered a lyric video for the first single ‘The Plague’ over here. Guitarist Markus Bünnemeyer issued the following comments about it: “Our first single ‘The Plague’ starts very groovy but ignites the full charge of old school Death Metal in the chorus at the latest. Our singer Jens is supported by Marc Grewe on vocals. Without his early works TEMPLE OF DREAD would not sound like they do today. Interesting how similar and complementary the two voices are. Lyrically the song deals with The Plague of Athens: An epidemic that destroyed man from within and thereby carried off almost a whole civilization. Parallels to modern pandemics would be coincidental… The lyrics were visualized by Ecuadorian director Christian Kdrumworm (k-drumworm-media) with great attention to the details of the incredible artwork by Paolo Girardi!” The full tracklist of “Beyond Acheron” reads as follows: ‘Charon’s Call’, ‘Beyond Acheron’, ‘World Below’, ‘Damnation’, ‘Dance Of Decay’, ‘All-Consuming Fire’, ‘The Plague’, ‘Carnality Device’, ‘Asebeia’ and ‘Hades’.

Serbian Black Metallers KOLAC have just released a visualizer video for their new single ‘Eppur Si Muove’ at this location. Here’s what the band had to say about it: “‘Eppur Si Muove’ is a first glimpse into KOLAC’s new promo material, as well as the full-length to come. It also marks the opening of the gates to our cooperation with Pest Records that is to bear hellish fruit later on. The song itself, as its title suggests, deals with Galileo Galilei. And not just him as the track stands for all the wrongfully accused and burned at the stake in the name of science. Thus, KOLAC makes the first into the semi-conceptual record that will see many more pyres surround innocent (and otherwise) individuals.” For more KOLAC info, please visit www.facebook.com/kolachorde
