FROM THE RUINS new album " Into Chaos"

From the Ruins is an unadulterated and unapologetic thrash metal band! Formed in Reno, Nevada , USA in 2016, the band quickly exploded onto the scene and began obliterating clubs across the West Coast. The bands sound is built around the machine gun riffing of Chuck Reyome and Scott Schlingheyde, as well as the powerhouse vocals of Isaac Wilson and the lethal rhythm section of Jim Wilson (bass) and Robert Landers (drums).
 
"Into Chaos" is six songs of razor-sharp thrash metal with influences from Death Angel, Kreator and Slayer as well as some of the melody and progressive tendencies of early Savatage and Metal Church . Fans of heavy metal and thrash can rejoice in yet another band flying their metal freak flag proudly. From the Ruins are metal through and through.

Having spent a few months building tracks, and forming a direction for the band, it was decided that the skills of a vocalist might be worth a shot. After a long and varied search, (and a small twist of fate) Dan Golding was etched into the Fabuliste ranks as the resident vocalist/lyricist.

We have since gone on to record and release two singles, with the third single 'Left for dead' due for release at the time of writing, and plan to release either a full album, or E.P for 2020. We have to date performed in various venues in Dublin , including a slot at one of the 2020 Bloodstock metal to the masses shows, with further live dates postponed for this year, which hopefully will go ahead in the near future. It is early days for Fabuliste , but we do hope to continue to carve a path for ourselves in some form within the European live festival, and touring scenes, to continue to record our own material, and to grow a further reaching fan-base to the people who love the music, that we ourselves would cherish to be a part of.

HOLE DUG DEEP Live With The Fear Of Being ‘Buried Alive’

Buried Alive brings a heavy melodic groove metal Seattle style hard rock from Hole Dug Deep, coupled with their dark view of life as we know it.

The album covers many themes and begins with a strong message to realize self destruction before it’s too late.

BEHIND THE HORROR ANNOUNCE DEBUT FULL LENGTH ALBUM "BURN UP THIS TRUTH"

With the wind from their debut EP still strong under their wings, Modern Metal duo "Behind The Horror" prepare to release their first full length album - 'Burn Up This Truth'. Their campaign of carnage will unleash its full wrath onto the world 08/10/2020 and will demonstrate the full power of "Behind The Horror"



After much success from their debut EP - “...And The Horror Begins” which can be heard here: https://behindthehorror.net/buy-our-ep Behind the Horror put pen to paper, fingers to frets to write the album that would present to the world their full range of capabilities. They released their first single in late 2019 to test the waters and had great response which can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/-75z3IB5Z20


About the band:
Behind The Horror is a metal band from Brazil but based in New Jersey, led by brothers Gabriel and Lucas Alves on guitar and drums. An emerging band influenced by Metallica, Sepultura, Death, and Dream Theater. Behind The Horror has taken those legendary sounds and infused them with its own unique take on heavy music to create rock with worldwide potential. The brothers had already played many shows and festivals in Brazil and the time felt right to take a leap of faith and pursue the dream they’ve shared since childhood.


Says Behind The Horror:
Despite sharing many of the same interests and pastimes, we all are inspired by our devotion to the Metal and the great tales from our favourite games like Magic: The Gathering and World of Warcraft things that lead us to work seamlessly in a creative setting. We take turns writing lyrics so we are all invested in each song and its meaning.

The band is poised to break and knows it and soon the rest of the metal community will know it, too. Behind The Horror is coming on strong from the underground with the talent and fury to capture it all. Expect to hear and see a lot more.


Says Behind The Horror:
Our music blends the old thrash-metal, progressive arrangements, and modern tones to create an unique sound. Our lyrics tell our personal histories but mixed and  inspired by our favourite games. We’ve written about the excitement of travelling alone, epic battles, and our passion for Metal.

Like many musicians and bands around the world, members of Montreal's heavy stoner rockers Paradise have been separated from one another as a precaution to the Covid 19 pandemic. Not able to see each other to have regular jams along with postponements of performances, the band has adapted to the state of the world and continues to promote their heavy and winding arrangements of corrosive rock with the creation of a new quarantine video series entitled "From The Van".

For the series, the band has recorded two songs from their latest self-titled album released this past March. Today, the band shares their first video for the track "Away From You".

"Funny enough, we all own our own vans, so we decided to each record ourselves performing our tunes with multi-camera angles. This is Covid 19 style! We couldn’t do it on stage, couldn’t do it for our fans, so we did it in our vans!” says vocalist R.L. Black.

Back in the summer of 2002, co-founders and fellow guitar players, Frank Kelly and Jet Phil recruited good friends Mike Plant (Sword) and drum god Michel “Away” Langevin (Voivod) to release Paradises 1st album “Rock Anthropologists on the Kon Tiki Voyage”. Summer of 2004, the usual suspects were rounded-up including a collaboration of Voivod’s late but great Denis “Piggy” D’Amour to work on Paradise’s follow-up record “Hotel”. Now in 2020, composed of Frank Kelly (guitars), Fred Kelly (bass), RL Black (vocals), Fred Crew Grrr (guitars) and Mat Hias (drums), Paradise, like a phoenix that is reborn from its ashes, have released a new eponymous album that sways on the line between hard stoner rock and pure heavy metal that was mixed and mastered by Kevin Jardine of  Slaves On Dope. From the opening piece and future classic “Straight From Hell” to the album closer “Free in Exile”, Paradise delivers an album where the balance between catchy riffs, attitude, intensity, and melodies is perfect.

Paradise's self-titled album is available for stream and download on SpotifyBandcamp, and Apple Music.
