WHAT IF YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE HAPPY? 🤔

Let’s be real for a moment: this whole “pursuit of happiness” thing is getting a tad annoying, right? 🙄 Happiness is everywhere! Instagram reels screaming about “highest vibrations,” ads promising happiness through protein powder and coffin-shaped lamps, and podcasts titled “How To Finally Be Happy (And Make Millions…).” 💸🛋️💊✨ And honestly, does it really work? Not for many, even those who are financially stable and healthy. 🤷‍♂️ So, the thought arises: what if you’re not supposed to be happy all the time? 🤔 What if that was never the point? 🎯 What if this modern obsession with constant happiness is just another marketing scheme for a life that doesn’t actually exist? 🛍️

Broken GPS 🧭

When Faderhead was 25, the goal was a record deal. ✍️ Got it. Then, it was people at shows. 🚶‍♂️ Got that too. Then, people singing along. 🎤 Check. And guess what? Faderhead was still the same moody, overthinking, slightly-depressed, alcohol-fueled dude with endless half-finished projects and a mix of genius/garbage ideas. 🤷‍♂️🍺📝 Happiness, it turned out, was a moving target – and Faderhead was chasing it with a faulty GPS. 😵‍💫

The Alternative 🕊️

What if peace is better than happiness? 😌 What if “content” is better than “ecstatic”? 😊 What if waking up without dread and sleeping with a calm mind is the real win? 🏆 A few weeks ago, someone much younger asked, “Are you happy?” 🤔 Faderhead’s answer: “No. But I’m at peace with most things. And I’m doing stuff that matters to me.” 🙏 Maybe that quieter space, where work feels meaningful and the mind isn’t at war, is the real destination. 🧘 Getting older helps with this perspective. 👴 At 20, it’s all about “more.” ➕ More stuff, more success, more experiences, more “likes.” 👍 Approaching 50, “less” starts to look like freedom. ➖ Less chaos, less drama, less noise, less bullshit. 🚫 Suddenly, quiet moments, close friends, and doing your own thing without external validation become more appealing. 🤫🤝 And somehow, that feels… good. Solid. Real. A quiet kind of content. 💯

What’s The Goal Then? ➡️

So yeah, maybe you’re not supposed to be happy all the time. 🤔 Maybe you’re supposed to be useful. 🛠️ Maybe you’re supposed to grow through pain instead of avoiding it. 🌱 Maybe life isn’t a 24/7 Disneyland ride, but a well-built road that gets you where you need to go, even if it’s bumpy. 🛣️ And maybe, just maybe, you’re doing better than you think. ❤️ Now stop scrolling for happiness and go do something that actually matters to you. ✨

✈️ TESSERACT Returns to North America & Announces Exclusive ‘Live at Radar’ Premiere! 🎬

TesseracT are landing back in North America this week for a string of tour dates! 🎸 But that’s not all – they’re also announcing an exclusive premiere screening of their ‘Live at Radar’ performance! 🔥

EXCLUSIVE SCREENING, Q&A & MEET & GREET IN BROOKLYN, NY ON MAY 8TH – ONLY 60 TICKETS AVAILABLE! 🎟️

TesseracT proudly present the premiere screening of ‘Live at Radar’ – their full headline performance filmed at Radar Festival 2024 – taking place at Nitehawk Williamsburg in Brooklyn, NY on Thursday, May 8th! 🌃

Tickets on Sale HERE

Presented in collaboration with Metal Injection 🤘, this exclusive screening offers fans a sneak peek at the show before its wider release via streaming and Blu-ray in late 2025. This special event aligns with TesseracT’s 2025 U.S. tour, which includes dates across North America and select performances with Devin Townsend.

Following the screening, attendees are invited to a Q&A and meet-and-greet with the band, where each person will receive a signed, personalized souvenir print! ✍️

Speaking about the upcoming event, TesseracT songwriter and bassist Amos Williams shared: “Radar was a huge event for us. It felt like the culmination of not just TesseracT’s ambition, but also Radar Festival’s vision. Drawing from not only War Of Being, but also our entire back catalogue, we had such a great time exploring and expanding upon these songs, aided by the phenomenal Choir Noir. Their involvement allowed us to bring an extra dimension to the show unlike anything we have ever experienced before. To then have our longtime collaborator Richard Oakes from Dark Fable Media there to film and produce the resulting movie was perfect. So we are once again privileged to bring this film to a cinema for the North American premiere, for our friends in the US to enjoy along with us. Radar is a step up for TesseracT, and a small hint at the journey that lies before us.”

💥 BELLHEAD Fire Warning Shots with Explosive New EP THREATS

Death, revenge, drowning, heartbreak, and murder—Chicago’s bass duo returns louder, darker, and more dangerous than ever.

Chicago’s rising industrial post-punk duo BELLHEAD have officially dropped the hammer with the announcement of their new EP THREATS, set for release on April 8, 2025 via Oppressive Sky Records. Available on CD, digital download, and all major streaming platforms, the title track is already live now via Bandcamp preorder.

🔥 THREATS is the first new material since their 2023 EP Good Intentions, and it’s a full-throttle evolution in both sound and style. Familiar themes of femme fatales, heartbreak, murder, and sorrow are back—but this time, the duo have cranked up the intensity and peeled back the curtain.

🎯 A New Era Begins

Gone is the signature black-and-white branding. In its place: vibrant yellow and a sharp, full-color portrait. For the first time, you can see the faces behind the menace: Ivan Russia and Karen Righeimer-Schock are making good on their threats.

Engineered by Neil Strauch and mastered by Carl Saff, the 7-track EP includes five new songs plus two remixes—each dripping with venom and vision. Highlights include:

  • “Heart Shaped Hole” twisted into a hallucinogenic haunt by Clubdrugs
  • “Bad Taste” reimagined with Stabbing Westward’s Chris Hall, giving it a dancefloor stomp you won’t soon forget

🩸 THREATS Tracklist

  1. Threats
  2. Heart Shaped Hole
  3. Shutters + Stutters
  4. No Dead Horses
  5. Double Jeopardy
  6. Bad Taste (Stabbing Westward Remix)
  7. Heart Shaped Hole (Clubdrugs Remix)

⚔️ BELLHEAD Live 2025

Fresh off a relentless national touring schedule that saw them supporting legends like Stabbing Westward, Clan of Xymox, Julien-K, and Night Club, BELLHEAD is heading back on the road in support of THREATS.

Spring Tour Dates:

  • 3/27 – Indianapolis, IN – Black Circle Brewery
  • 3/28 – Kenosha, WI – Port Of Kenosha
  • 4/05 – Minneapolis, MN – Fireseek Festival
  • 4/24 – Urbana, IL – Rose Bowl Tavern

⚰️ ALLEGAEON Unleashes Video for “Wake Circling Above” from The Ossuary Lens

Brutality meets orchestral darkness in this slow-burning tech-death epic

Colorado tech-death force ALLEGAEON has just dropped a brand-new video for “Wake Circling Above”, a haunting highlight from their latest album The Ossuary Lens, out now via Metal Blade Records.

🎥 Watch “Wake Circling Above”

Guitarist Michael Stancel sheds light on the song’s cinematic weight:

“Ezra wanted something slow and heavy, and I was like, ‘DONE.’ I drew inspiration from Dimmu Borgir and Septicflesh to build those massive orchestral sections. It’s probably the most different track on the record, but still packed with classic ALLEGAEON-isms.”

🔁 Also check out:

💿 The Ossuary Lens – Out Now

ALLEGAEON’s seventh full-length marks the return of original vocalist Ezra Haynes, whose presence fuels a brutal rebirth. The Ossuary Lens dives deep into death’s many forms—each track a perspective, each riff a reckoning. It’s the most unified, visceral ALLEGAEON album to date.

📀 Available Formats:

  • Ossuary Marbled (US)
  • Wine And Lust (US)
  • 180g Black (EU)
  • Red Obsidian Marbled (EU)
  • Ossuary Crystal (EU – Ltd. 200)

Final dates of the Vortex of Violence Tour with Warbringer, Skeletal Remains, and Summoning The Lich:

  • Apr 8 – Seattle, WA – El Corazon
  • Apr 9 – Vancouver, BC – Rickshaw Theatre
  • Apr 10 – Portland, OR – Hawthorne Theater
  • Apr 11 – San Francisco, CA – DNA Lounge
  • Apr 12 – Los Angeles, CA – Teragram Ballroom

🗡️ Death Reborn Through Sound

The Ossuary Lens reunites the band with producer Dave Otero (Flatline Audio), known for capturing the balance of uncompromising ferocity and melodic grandeur that has become the band’s signature.

The album is more than technical fireworks—it’s a soul-splitting descent into mortality, sharpened by Haynes’ raw vocal return and thematic depth.

💬 Praise for The Ossuary Lens

“Absolutely fucking blistering.” – Metal Injection
“Maximalist and masterful.” – Decibel Magazine
“A return to form and evolution in one stroke.” – No Clean Singing
“Savage and emotionally potent.” – Hotel Hobies

🔥 Faderhead Unleashes New Single “This Is Not The End” + Mindset Hacks for High-Functioning Controlled Chaos 🧠💥

🎤 New Track Previewed Live in Germany

Kicking off March with explosive energy, Faderhead delivered a sold-out show in Oberhausen, Germany—where fans got a surprise taste of a brand-new track: “This Is Not The End.” Despite never having heard it before, the crowd went off.

📹 Watch the crowd reaction here

The official music video will be filmed this Saturday in Hamburg, where the team hopes for an equally electric audience. The single is scheduled to drop mid-May, just in time to crank momentum before Wave-Gotik-Treffen.

💿 FH20 Album in the Works

In last month’s Patreon studio stream, Faderhead teased plans for a brand-new full-length album in early March 2026.

Why now?
2026 marks 20 years since the release of Faderhead’s debut album “FH1”, and what better way to celebrate than with an “FH20” release.

After a string of singles in 2024, it’s time for something more immersive. Faderhead is back in album mode.

🎛️ 1-Hour Rave Mix: Not Your Typical FH Vibe

March’s 1-hour Patreon-exclusive mix takes a rave-forward detour. Less darkwave, more full-on energy.

It’s rhythmic, pulsing, and designed to attract new listeners—so if you’re into high-octane beats, give it a spin.

💪 Mindset Hacks: Fuck Your Excuses, Use Microbursts Instead

Q1 is over. Are your New Year’s resolutions collecting dust? Let’s fix that.

We all make excuses—life’s busy, motivation’s low, the timing’s never right. But if you wait for perfect conditions, you’ll stay stuck forever.

⏱️ Microbursts: The 10-Minute Fix

Instead of aiming for a perfect hour-long work sprint, start with 5–15 minutes of focused action.
Set a timer. Do one task. When it dings, you’re done. Or keep going.

That’s the magic of microbursts—small momentum snowballs fast.

🗓️ Temporal Landmarks: Hit Reset on Command

Want a clean slate? Use temporal landmarks like Mondays, birthdays, or the 1st of the month to mentally reset.
Pick a hard start date and commit. No waiting for motivation. Just move.

🧠 Perfection Is a Lie. Progress Is Power

You don’t need the perfect hour or the perfect energy. You need movement.
Start with one push-up.
One sentence.
One small win.

Because motion beats perfection every time.

🚀 Take the Shot

Next time you’re tempted to delay:
Say “fuck that.”
Set a timer.
Start something.

Small wins build big momentum.

🧟 LIK Drop New Single “Morgue Rat” Featuring Linnea Landstedt 💀

Swedish death metal crushers LIK are back with a brand-new single, “Morgue Rat,” taken from their upcoming full-length Necro, out April 18th via Metal Blade Records.

🎥 Watch “Morgue Rat” HERE

This twisted and groovy slab of horror-metal features guest vocals from Linnea Landstedt (Tyranex, Ice Age) and is inspired by infamous necrophiliac Karen Greenlee. “It’s about a mortician who can’t keep her hands off the dead,” says vocalist/guitarist Tomas Åkvik. “It’s also our first track ever with clean-ish guitars.”

Previously released video: Watch “War Praise”

🩸 About Necro

With Necro, LIK have created their most intense, punishing, and twistedly cinematic release yet. Drawing from the putrid depths of old-school Swedish death metal à la Dismember, Entombed, and At The Gates, this record offers ten blood-soaked tracks that are as groovy as they are gruesome.
Think zombie flick meets Stockholm sound—raw, brutal, and utterly irresistible.

The album’s cover art was designed by Stockholm tattoo artist Jens Olsson and serves as a visual appetizer for the carnage within.

🧪 Recorded with Pure Necro Intentions

Neco was tracked live in just three days at Necromorbus Studio (NBS) in Söderfors, Sweden, with production wizard Lawrence Mackrory (Meshuggah, Katatonia, Decapitated). Åkvik’s vocals were laid down separately at Rorysound Studios in Uppsala.
Mackrory’s been behind the board for LIK since their 2015 debut Mass Funeral Evocation, and Necro may just be the band’s defining moment.

The album also features guest appearances from Nick Holmes (Paradise Lost, Bloodbath), Lawrence Mackrory himself, and Linnea Landstedt.

🌌 FRACTAL UNIVERSE Unleashes New Video “A New Cycle” Ahead of The Great Filters Album Release 💀

Progressive death metal boundary-breakers FRACTAL UNIVERSE have dropped a brand-new music video for their latest single “A New Cycle” — the third and final preview from their upcoming full-length, The Great Filters, out this Friday, April 4th via M-Theory Audio.

🎥 Watch “A New Cycle” HERE

The track dives into the speculative sci-fi concept of directed panspermia — humanity, teetering on extinction, sends probes filled with primordial life across the cosmos to spark new civilizations. But those civilizations, destined to repeat our same fatal mistakes, find themselves trapped in a never-ending loop of rise and ruin.

Directed by Pauline Colombani (www.c3polette.com), the video is the latest visual chapter following “Causality’s Grip” and “The Seed of Singularity,” all showcasing FRACTAL UNIVERSE’s signature fusion of progressive technicality and eerie saxophone-laced soundscapes.

🎧 About The Great Filters

Due out April 4, 2025, The Great Filters is FRACTAL UNIVERSE’s most ambitious and intricate album to date. Merging heavy riffs, jazz-influenced melodies, and philosophical storytelling, it delivers a cerebral experience laced with cosmic awe.
Recorded at Boundless Production Studios and Fractal Headquarters, the album was mixed and mastered by Flavien Morel (Benighted Soul, Catalyst).

💿 Available Formats:

  • Limited-edition red with black splatter vinyl (500 copies)
  • Red and cream marble vinyl (band/label exclusive, 200 copies)

🧬 FRACTAL UNIVERSE – A Legacy of Evolution

Formed in 2015 in Nancy, France, FRACTAL UNIVERSE made their debut with the independent EP Boundaries of Reality before signing to Kolony Records for 2017’s Engram of Decline, a concept record influenced by Nietzsche.
They joined Metal Blade Records for 2019’s Rhizomes of Insanity, exploring fragmented human consciousness with technical brilliance. Their critically acclaimed 2021 album The Impassable Horizon tackled themes of determinism and free will, all while integrating saxophone flourishes into their progressive metal palette.
Having toured with heavyweights like Obscura, Evergrey, Black Dahlia Murder, and God Dethroned, FRACTAL UNIVERSE continue to carve their place as one of the most innovative acts in modern metal.

🧠 IGORRR Unveils Amen – New Album Drops September 19 via Metal Blade Records 💀

French sonic chaos-conductor Gautier Serre, better known as IGORRR, is set to release his fifth full-length album Amen on September 19th via Metal Blade Records. As always, IGORRR defies genre, logic, and expectations, weaving together breakcore, baroque, metal, and absurdism into something that sounds like nothing—and everything—all at once.
The first single, “ADHD”, arrives with a video that’s as demented as it is mesmerizing. Directed by Meat Dept, the visual journey is part therapy session, part brain meltdown, with an AI-glitched aesthetic that takes cringe into addictive territory.

🎥 Watch “ADHD”
🎧 Pre-save/Pre-order Amen

🎼 A Darker, Heavier IGORRR

“This album is darker and more solemn than anything I’ve done before,” says Serre. “I recorded a real choir in a church, and did deep experimental sound design to create something that truly resonates.”
Despite the somber tone, Amen doesn’t skimp on IGORRR’s trademark absurdity. Tracks like “Blastbeat Falafel” and “ADHD” serve as sonic palate cleansers, injecting manic energy and unpredictability into the album’s bleak weight.
“Those wild tracks are necessary,” Gautier explains. “Like a shot of limoncello between courses.”

🧬 The Mind Behind the Mayhem

Gautier describes his process as a constant stream of subconscious composition. “Music happens even in my sleep,” he says. “I create concertos in my dreams—the challenge is filtering through them to find the ones worth bringing into reality.”
On the new video, he adds: “ADHD is kind of autobiographical. It starts in silence and ends in chaos, like a brain spinning out of control but somehow still standing.”
The video’s collaborators, Meat Dept, also known for IGORRR’s viral “Very Noise,” blended 3D visuals with AI for a surreal, twisted vibe. “We leaned into ‘mental cringe’ with aesthetic influences from James Bond to Fantômas,” they say.

📀 Amen Tracklist

  1. Daemoni
  2. Headbutt
  3. Limbo
  4. Blastbeat Falafel
  5. ADHD
  6. 2020
  7. Mustard Mucous

💀 About The Nothing That Is

Released via Nuclear Blast, the band’s seventh album is their most ambitious and emotionally devastating effort yet. Produced by Will Putney at Graphic Nature Audio, the record trades fleeting trends for timeless terror—delivering ten dense, dynamic tracks that explore everything from planetary collapse to personal despair.

From the crushing “Hostage” to the haunting “The Silver Sun”, this album flows like a descent into modern-day dystopia, demanding to be played start to finish.

“This is not about commercial appeal,” says the band. “This is about rage, reflection, and ripping away the façade.”

🌌 DVNE Announces Full European Tour in Support of “Voidkind” 💀

Cosmic riff architects DVNE have announced a full-scale European tour this May, bringing their interstellar new album Voidkind to stages across the continent. With a reputation for jaw-dropping live performances and soaring post-metal grandeur, the Glasgow-based five-piece is poised to deliver their most immersive run yet.

Fresh off the critical buzz surrounding Voidkind—hailed as “post-metal album of the decade thus far” by Metal Hammer UK—DVNE will journey from the UK to Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and back, with additional festival appearances lined up for summer 2025.

Recorded in rural Scottish isolation, Voidkind strips down DVNE’s sonic density while amplifying their emotional impact. Lyrically, the album follows a dream-haunting godlike entity and the generations of followers it seduces—a concept echoed in Felix Abel Klaer’s stunning artwork and the band’s explosive live execution.

🩸 HARM’S WAY & FULL OF HELL Forge Unholy Alliance for Spring 2025 Tour 💀

Prepare for impact. This May, HARM’S WAY and FULL OF HELL will detonate a co-headlining tour across North America, unleashing sonic violence alongside support from KRUELTY, JARHEAD FERTILIZER, and CLIQUE.

The Spring 2025 run kicks off May 10th in Detroit and runs through June 8th, culminating in Toronto. Along the way, HARM’S WAY will wreck stages at some of the year’s most stacked festivals—Sonic Temple, Welcome to Rockville, and Milwaukee Metal Fest. This relentless campaign also leads into a new HARM’S WAY EP, with further details to surface in the coming weeks.

“We’re building something heavier than just a tour,” said the band in a teaser. “This is about expression, destruction, and evolution.”

The tour follows the acclaimed release of Common Suffering (Metal Blade Records), an album that sees HARM’S WAY exploring grief, disorder, misanthropy, and mental collapse through some of the most diverse and punishing songwriting in their career.

Tickets are on sale now. Brace yourself.

🕳 PSYCLON NINE Descends Into Darkness with Eighth Studio Album “And Then Oblivion” 💀

Twenty-five years into their reign, PSYCLON NINE have returned to the abyss with a vengeance. Their latest full-length offering, And Then Oblivion, out March 21, 2025 via Metropolis Records, is a genre-defying sonic invocation—a twisted ritual that fuses blackened industrial, deathcore, ambient, trap, and metal into something altogether untamed and unclean.

Helmed by longtime visionary Nero Bellum, the album shatters expectation with tracks like “CRWLNG FRM CNT T CSKT” and “I Choose Violence,” merging visceral textures with apocalyptic production and spine-splintering vocals. Bellum explains,

“I specifically set out to break as many genre limitations as possible, while staying true to the concepts and imagery Psyclon Nine evokes.”

Critics across the globe are already losing their minds over it:

🔥 VOWWS Ignite New Era With Seductive Single “Hurt You” + European Tour with Jerry Cantrell Announced 💀

Out now via Out Of Line Music, rising Australian darkwave duo VOWWS return with the haunting new single “Hurt You” — a brooding, sensual exploration of love, memory, and longing. Following the success of their hard-hitting track “Blood’s On Fire” featuring Josh Freese of Foo Fighters, “Hurt You” brings a more intimate, melancholic energy while maintaining their signature cinematic edge.

“This is probably as close as we’ll get to an actual love song,” VOWWS explain. “But it’s more like a memory of love. A rose-tinted longing… Sometimes these memories change and become their own entity, like an old, flickering movie of the past. That feeling is what the song represents to us.”

🖤 Stream + Watch “Hurt You” now:
Listen + Watch

Known for their fearless fusion of industrial, electronica, and alt-rock, VOWWS (Rizz + Matt James) have already captured the attention of legends like Deftones, Gary Numan, Korn, A Perfect Circle, and Billy Corgan. With their upcoming 2025 album, the duo have sharpened their vision further — collaborating with Billy Howerdel (A Perfect Circle) to bring their sonic storytelling to life.

Beyond music, VOWWS have also made waves in the fashion world, working with Commes des Garçons, Givenchy, Alyx, and Byredo for live performances and brand compositions, reflecting their multi-dimensional artistic impact.

🔥 ONI Drops Haunting New Ballad “Shouldn’t Feel This Way” + Tour With Pop Evil This Spring 💀

Canadian alt-metal trailblazer ONI has returned with a soul-piercing new single, “Shouldn’t Feel This Way,” a powerful acoustic ballad that peels back the distortion to reveal raw emotion and heartbreak. Out now on all platforms, the track marks a distinct shift in tone for ONI—showcasing a softer, more vulnerable side of project founder Jake Oni.

📍 Stream “Shouldn’t Feel This Way”: Click Here

💬 Reflecting on the song, Oni shares:

“‘Shouldn’t Feel This Way’ is about mourning the loss of someone really close to you, and the constant struggle in life to live without feeling lost and alone… It isn’t like anything I have released before. I got to shoot the video on my farm in Canada which is a very important place for me.”

Co-written with John Boecklin, Seth Evans, and Kile Odell, the track follows the recent cover of The Kooks’ “Naive” and ONI’s emotionally charged Genesis EP, setting the stage for a dynamic and deeply personal year in the band’s evolution.

🔥 About ONI

Formed in 2014, ONI has carved out a unique space in metal with his fusion of progressive songwriting, crushing metalcore, and melodic hooks. From his debut Ironshore (2016) to the powerful sophomore effort Loathing Light (2022) featuring Iggy Pop and Randy Blythe, to the genre-defying The Silver Line (2023) with collabs including Howard Jones and Sueco, Jake Oni has proven he’s one of the scene’s most versatile and ambitious voices.

The Genesis EP (2025) continues that upward trajectory with singles like “Deja Vu,” “Walk Away,” and “Erase” leading the charge.

Featuring guest appearances by members of DISTANT, NASTY, TEN56, VISCERA, and AVIANA, this album is a dark hymn for the broken and the cursed.

ALLEGAEON Unleashes “The Swarm” Video Ahead of The Ossuary Lens Release + North American Tour Kicks Off Next Week 🎸🔥

Technical death metal visionaries ALLEGAEON have just dropped their latest single, “The Swarm,” accompanied by a powerful new video, now premiering at Metal Injection. The track is taken from their forthcoming full-length album, The Ossuary Lens, set to be released on April 4th, 2025, via Metal Blade Records.

🔗 Watch “The Swarm” Now

Guitarist Greg Burgess shares insight into the track’s origins:
“This is a piece written by [guitarist] Michael Stancel. The frantic intro riff was actually written on tour in the UK on a boat in Bristol. I remember filming him playing it so we wouldn’t forget how to play it. The show was sold out and ruled, and then all of our gear got rained on because they had us load out so they could have a disco after the show. Shame!”

Stancel adds:
“If I could have set that venue adrift, I would have—but at least we got a song out of it.”

🎥 Watch the official video for “The Swarm” HERE
🎥 Watch ALLEGAEON’s previously released video for “Driftwood” HERE

The Ossuary Lens: ALLEGAEON’s Most Brutal and Technically Dazzling Album Yet 💀🎶

The Ossuary Lens marks ALLEGAEON’s seventh studio album and the highly anticipated return of original vocalist Ezra Haynes, rejoining the band after nearly a decade. The album explores various perspectives on death, delving into themes both philosophical and visceral.

“Each song is a different topic, but there’s always a perspective of death tied in,” explains Haynes. “Since the entire album revolves around this theme, we felt that ‘Ossuary’ was a fitting concept, and thus, The Ossuary Lens was born.”
