MIKROMETRIK has just released their new single, “P.O.F.O.K.O.” This dark electro mantra, built on heavy beats and distortion, is the first single from the band’s upcoming album, “Hell is Empty,” set to be released in 2026. The track, an industrial ritual for the dancefloor, takes its name from the phrase “People Only Feed On Killing Others,” forging rage, frustration, and raw truth into sound.
London-based artist RAY NOIR has just released his most personal and unapologetic effort to date, the EP Against The Machine. This EP is a blend of industrial rock, goth, and electro-metal, and explores love, loss, and defiance from the perspective of a queer person fighting to be seen.
Against The Machine features a guest appearance from Grammy-winning guitarist Steve Stevens and was produced by Jon Cass. The project is described by Noir as “romantic, violent, tender, and angry all at once,” a scream from the margins for those who have always been told they don’t deserve love.
Along with the EP, Ray Noir has released a music video for the single “Mad World.” The video for this politically charged ballad, which you can watch here, strips everything back to expose the stark reality of living in a world dictated by power and corruption.
You can stream or download Against The Machine HERE
A Deluxe Edition of the EP is set to follow in December 2025, featuring exclusive remixes by Tension Control, Verona on Venus, Junkie Kut, and Die Kur. The EP will also be released on vinyl and CD at a later date.

Louisville natives GATES TO HELL are back with a new digital single, “Disfigured.” The track is a brutally heavy, all-killer-no-filler song—essentially one long, punishing breakdown. The single is a B-side from the band’s recent album, Death Comes to All, which was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Randy LeBoeuf.
The band comments that they wrote the track a few years ago and decided to release it now to coincide with their upcoming tour with Dying Fetus. They recall playing it on a 2023 tour where it got the crowd moving every night, and they’re excited to finally have it out for the world to hear.
Starting on September 20th, GATES TO HELL will embark on a 24-day trek that includes performances at the New England Metal & Hardcore Fest and Louder Than Life. They will also join headliners Dying Fetus on their ‘Into The Cesspool’ US/Canadian 2025 tour with Mugshot. Following the tour, the band will wrap up the year with a show in Albany, New York, before kicking off a run in Europe with Sanguisugabogg, Fulci, and Celestial Sanctuary in the new year.
The band’s recent album, Death Comes to All, was fueled by youthful ambition and a sharp creative focus, with producer Randy LeBoeuf elevating their sound to new heights. The album’s artwork, crafted by WYRMWALK, offers a fitting representation of the blood-soaked dread and suffocating darkness within the music. The album is available in multiple formats, including CD and various vinyl pressings.

OMEN CODE, a new rising star in the EBM scene, has revealed their grim cyberpunk track, “Brutal + Pure.” This is the first single from their forthcoming debut album, “Alpha State.” The London, England-based duo, consisting of programmer and engineer Kevin Gould (formerly of Electro Assassin) and vocalist Agi Taralas (formerly of Our Banshee), creates a dark, gritty, industrial sound with captivating mid-tempo tracks that evoke a dystopian future.
Additional singles will be released over the next few months, leading up to the highly anticipated “Alpha State” album, which will be released by Dependent Records of Germany on December 5, 2025. A 48-page artbook 2-CD version of the album is available for pre-order, while the single “Brutal + Pure” is available now on all streaming and digital platforms.
King810 is thrilled to announce the release of their latest track, ‘I DON’T MIND,’ from K7. The new single, a grunge-inspired anthem, is now available with both audio and video on all streaming platforms. This marks the latest release from the band, inviting fans to dive in and share their thoughts.
The group is currently busy playing a string of sold-out shows in the UK before returning home to begin their next journey. This includes their annual WEEKEND WITH KING events, followed by the BLOOD RUM & RHYTHM tour. Tickets and VIP packages are still available for all upcoming dates.
Technical death metal architects COGNITIVE have unveiled their outstanding cover of the Slipknot classic, “People = Shit.” The standalone single arrives in advance of the band’s upcoming US tour, supporting death metal legends NILE. The Underground Awaits Tour 2025 is set to begin this Friday, September 12th in Raleigh, North Carolina, and will run through October 11th in Indianapolis, Indiana. Additional support will be provided by Cryptopsy and labelmates, The Last Ten Seconds Of Life.
In a collective statement, COGNITIVE commented on the new release: “We have been hard at work writing our next album and prepping for tour, but decided to spend some time having fun and recorded a cover of ‘People = Shit’ by the almighty Slipknot! We wanted to have fun with something that wasn’t exactly death metal, but still in the extreme realm! The world is an awful place, and humanity doesn’t make it any better, so to us the Slipknot math and song title added up correctly! We hope you enjoy and see you on the road!”
COGNITIVE will be touring in support of their most recent full-length album, Abhorrence, released last spring via Metal Blade Records. The record finds the New Jersey-based quintet at their brutal best. Abhorrence carries on band tradition with its maniacal fusion of relentless riffs and devastating lyrics, making for a raging, draining, and ultimately fulfilling experience.

Symphonic metal sensation BEYOND THE BLACK is excited to share the third single from their eagerly awaited upcoming studio album, Break The Silence, which is set to be released on January 9, 2026, via Nuclear Blast Records.
The emotional anthem ‘The Art Of Being Alone’ features none other than Chris Harms of acclaimed German metal band Lord Of The Lost on guest vocals. The song deals with important contemporary issues such as mental health, self-empowerment, and positive life perception. A compelling video has also been released alongside the single, illustrating the feeling of being alone and cornered while ultimately showing a path to self-awareness and a way out of this mental prison.
Singer Jennifer Haben commented, “‘The Art Of Being Alone’ is one of the most emotional songs for us since it‘s born from personal battles and quiet reflections. We wanted it to be fragile and powerful at the same time and we believe many of you will find your own story between its lines. Having Chris Harms join us with his uniquely intense voice and personality felt absolutely perfect and brought a depth to this track that made it even more special.”
Chris Harms (Lord Of The Lost) added, “This duet was long overdue! For more than 10 years now, LORD OF THE LOST and BEYOND THE BLACK have been crossing paths — we like and appreciate each other and it was kind of obvious that Jenny’s and my voices would work great together. Now we’ve finally made it happen and created this powerful, goosebump-inducing song together! I’m really happy about it!”
BEYOND THE BLACK’s sixth full-length album, Break The Silence, is a concept album rooted in melodic metal with ethno influences. It explores themes of communication, inner strength, resilience, and the urgent need to reconnect in a divided world. Tracks like ‘Let There Be Rain’, ‘(La Vie Est Un) Cinéma’, ‘Ravens’, and ‘The Flood’ examine how words – and their absence – shape our reality. It is an emotional, multi-layered experience that mirrors today’s complex world and invites fans to be part of this new chapter.
Since their formation, German symphonic metal band BEYOND THE BLACK have become one of the most exciting forces in modern symphonic metal. Their debut album in 2015, Songs Of Love And Death, was an instant success, earning the Metal Hammer Award for “Best Debut.” They have since played the world’s biggest metal festivals, including Wacken Open Air, and supported international acts like Aerosmith, Korn, and the Scorpions. Following their self-titled fifth album in 2023, which charted in several countries, they embarked on their most successful European headline tour to date in early 2024. The band reached another milestone in early 2025 with their first-ever Latin America tour, and will take the stage at prestigious European festivals again this summer before launching their next European headline tour, Rising High, in early 2026.
Dark Force Fest, the ultimate gathering for fans of industrial, gothic, darkwave, EBM, and electronic music, is set to make its highly anticipated return in 2026. Taking place from May 1st to May 3rd at the Sheraton in Parsippany, New Jersey, this year’s festival promises an unforgettable experience with an array of genre-defining artists, iconic performances, and an unparalleled atmosphere of music, art, and community.
Presented by VampireFreaks, the 2026 edition of Dark Force Fest brings together a diverse collection of acts, both well-established and emerging, from the world of dark, industrial, and electronic music. With performances spanning three nights, fans can expect a wide variety of genres, from aggressive industrial to melodic darkwave and everything in between. The festival has confirmed a total of 35 bands performing over three days, plus two bands on the Thursday night pre-party.
Re:Mission Entertainment has officially opened pre-orders for Death Kiss, the highly anticipated new album from dark electronic artist Maduro. The full album is scheduled for release on October 17, 2025.
Death Kiss follows the artist’s earlier EP, Worse for the Wear, and marks a significant evolution in Maduro’s sound. The album is a 10-track journey that merges the raw energy of classic EBM with contemporary production. It delves into themes of love, loss, and inner conflict.
The release of Death Kiss has been preceded by three singles. “Black Lipstick” set the stage with its distinct synth-driven sound, followed by “Start A War,” which brought a new level of rhythmic intensity. The most recent single, “You Are Empty,” further expanded the album’s sonic palette with its haunting melodies.
Fans who pre-order the album will receive an instant download of all three singles.
Known for their unique blend of pulsing rhythms and atmospheric textures, Maduro has carved out a distinct space in the electronic music scene. Their music is both a homage to the pioneers of EBM and a bold step into new sonic territory.

Industrial music provocateurs spankthenun have released a new project titled BLAK, which they are presenting not as a traditional album but as a “declassified sonic dossier.” The release is framed as an urgent advisory to the public, warning of an “imminent data release” detailing a phenomenon described as a subculture unified by a stark, dark aesthetic.
The band states that the project is a deep-field study into a “memetic contagion” and that the tracks themselves are “stabilizations” of data. These sonic interpretations include “The Singularity Edit,” which represents an act of separation from the mainstream, and “The Event Horizon Edit,” which explores the boundary of this subculture. A third track, “The Absolute Zero Rendition,” captures what the band calls the sound of “elegant, defiant isolation.”
In a statement, the band acknowledged their role in the phenomenon, saying, “We were not composing; we were documenting a memetic contagion…This release is a warning, an invitation, and a confession. We are all part of the experiment now.”
BLAK is now available on all major streaming platforms, with exclusive versions offered on their Bandcamp page.
BLAK is a chilling and atmospheric release that pushes the boundaries of industrial music, delivering a soundscape that is both immersive and unsettling. The project’s unique conceptual framing as a government-style data release adds to its intrigue and artistic weight. It is a must-listen for fans of industrial, darkwave, and experimental electronic music.

Mach FoX will release the new 7-song album Chaos of Man in October 2025 on Phage Tapes. The album will be available on cassette and digital.
Originally intended for the third Zwaremachine album, these songs were reworked after the passing of drummer Dein Offizier in August 2023. The project was then released under the Mach FoX name, as the songs no longer fit the current Zwaremachine live set. The album features the classic Zwaremachine trio of Mach FoX, bassist Dbot, and the late Dein Offizier on surdo drum.
The single “Biteback” from the album was released on Friday, September 5th.
Chaos of Man is for fans of industrial rock and Wax Trax.
Zwaremachine is currently on “The Machine Comes Alive Tour,” which includes both European and U.S. dates. This tour is notable as it features the new lineup following the passing of drummer Dein Offizier.
Key Tour Details:
New from Greek synth duo Paradox Obscur is their studio album IKONA, out now on Metropolis Records. This project is the result of a three-year creative journey and follows their critically acclaimed album, Morphogenesis.
IKONA is a blend of old-school methodology and modern sound design. The nine-track album moves beyond the digital realm by using live instrumentation and real-time composition techniques. A standout track, “Like A Freak,” was composed entirely with analog gear, offering a raw, visceral sound that sets it apart from the rest of the album.
IKONA isn’t just a collection of songs; it’s a statement of artistic freedom. Each track has its own identity, coming together to form a conceptual mosaic of electronic expression.
Leading up to the album’s release, the duo dropped three singles:
Known for their real-time, hardware-only approach, Paradox Obscur creates authentic, analog-driven music without computers or digital plugins. Their unique sound combines haunting melodies, driving rhythms, and a cinematic atmosphere, appealing to a wide range of listeners.

FiXT has officially released “NIGHT OF,” the latest powerful single from electronic rock artist The Anix. Known for pushing the boundaries between modern rock and industrial electronica, the project, led by Brandon Smith, delivers a track that showcases a meticulous blend of driving synthetic rhythms, atmospheric soundscapes, and soaring vocal melodies. The single represents the next chapter in the band’s ever-evolving sonic journey, immediately grabbing listeners and drawing them into a darker, more introspective world.
Thematically and sonically, “NIGHT OF” is a nocturnal anthem that explores introspection and the unknown. The track’s production is polished yet haunting, built on a foundation of pulsing basslines and intricate synth work that creates a cinematic, dystopian atmosphere. The song builds tension with its dynamic arrangement, culminating in an emotionally charged chorus that feels both epic and deeply personal. It’s a testament to The Anix’s ability to craft songs that are not only sonically compelling but also rich in narrative depth, providing a multi-layered experience for longtime fans and new listeners alike.
With “NIGHT OF,” The Anix solidifies its reputation as a leading force in the electronic rock scene. The single stands as a testament to the project’s consistent quality and creative vision, maintaining the high standard set by previous releases on the FiXT label. This new song offers a tantalizing preview of what’s to come, hinting at a larger body of work on the horizon. Fans are encouraged to stream “NIGHT OF” now and stay connected for more announcements from The Anix and FiXT.

Brace yourself for a full-frontal sonic assault as FRONTAL BOUNDARY unleash “Hate”, the explosive new EP that marks the band’s first strike from their upcoming full-length album “Failure” – and also celebrates their signing to leading electro-industrial label Alfa Matrix, home to genre-defining acts like FRONT 242, UNTER NULL, POUPPEE FABRIKK, ALIEN VAMPIRES or yet KOMOR KOMMANDO.
With “Hate”, FRONTAL BOUNDARY channels raw aggression and emotional turmoil into a blistering EBM/industrial anthem. “This track voices the fury felt toward those who constantly try to keep you down”, explains vocalist Krz Souls. Brendin Ross (ex-BILE, ex-INVA//ID, Dawn of Ashes, and Bornless Fire), the band’s founding member and instrumental powerhouse behind FRONTAL BOUNDARY is indeed joined by Krz Souls (ex-INVA//ID, Dawn of Ashes, Bornless Fire) on vocals and Jaysen Craves (Livernois) on synths.
Melding fire and ice, chaos and control, FRONTAL BOUNDARY’s signature sound fuses dense industrial rhythms, driving EBM beats, dark melodic leads, and infectious synthpop textures – topped with harsh, emotional vocals that sometimes veer into future pop territory. Fans of SUICIDE COMMANDO, C-LEKKTOR, COMBICHRIST, LEAETHER STRIP and ROTERSAND will feel right at home.
The “Hate” EP also includes club-destroying remixes by American industrial force FACT PATTERN and cult Alfa Matrix label-mate UNTER NULL, adding new layers of intensity to an already volatile release.
“Hate” is not just a song – it’s a statement. Welcome to FRONTAL BOUNDARY. Resistance is futile.
After smashing expectations with her previous single and reigniting the fire of UNTER NULL, Erica Dunham returns with a vengeance. Her new EP, “You Made A Monster,” is a brutal, no-holds-barred confrontation with trauma, betrayal, and the silent complicity that empowers abusers.
Fueled by raw emotion and cutting honesty, the title track is a devastating dark elektro anthem built from real-life scars. It drags narcissistic abuse and its enablers into the harsh light, pulling no punches: “You knew what he did / You knew of his lies / You gave up your morals for your motherfucking pride.” This is not a song of defeat – it’s a battle cry. A reclaiming of power. A voice for the erased.
“I wrote this because I was tired of being erased”, says Erica. “It’s for anyone who has screamed the truth into a void while everyone else nodded along with the abuser”.
Also featured is the haunting yet defiant “Coming Up To Breathe”, reimagined as well in three powerful remixes: C-LEKKTOR brings his signature dark pulse, LEAETHER STRIP injects classic EBM fire with a melodic touch, and rising force FRONTAL BOUNDARY adds a fierce modern twist.
“You Made A Monster” is not just an EP. It’s a statement. It’s UNTER NULL – louder, stronger, and more intentional than ever. Play it loud. Feel every word. And never be silent again.

🖤 INDUSTRIAL IS DEAD. LONG LIVE INDUSTRIAL. 🖤
There’s a phrase I can’t get out of my skull—it clings like sweaty PVC in a crowded goth club: “Industrial is dead. Long live industrial.” No, it’s not poetic. It’s fact—as loud and clear as a distorted Suicide Commando snare. Let me explain.
🤖 What is Industrial in 2025?
Once, “industrial” meant dissonant, confrontational noise made by weirdos in bondage pants and art school trauma. Think Throbbing Gristle. Early Wax Trax. Music that didn’t want your love—it wanted your fear. But now? The average “industrial playlist” on Spotify is an identity crisis: one part aggrotech, one part synthpop, and maybe a sprinkle of Nine Inch Nails for comfort. Some artists still bleed rebellion, but a lot of what’s called “industrial” today feels about as threatening as a pastel bat plushie from Etsy. So yeah: Industrial is dead. But the idea behind it isn’t.
🧱 The Cage of Labels
The term “industrial” used to mean danger. Chaos. Revolt. Now it’s just another keyword. Say it today and people expect: A Harsh EBM clone of a 2007 Grendel B-side. Post-metal with layered screams and down-tuned guitars. Cyberpunk techno with overused AI samples. Or worse, nothing at all, because the scene stopped caring a decade ago. It’s become a nostalgia trap. A genre cage. And inside that cage, nothing grows.
🔥 Make Music That Hits, Not That Fits
I don’t write music to save a genre’s ghost. I write songs to gut-punch your ears and brain simultaneously. Sometimes it’s dark electro. Sometimes synthpop. Sometimes sad goth rave balladry with a side of emotional damage. If it moves you, it doesn’t need a label. If the label limits you? Burn it. Too many artists stay shackled to the word “industrial” like it’s a badge of honor instead of a creative shackle. But maybe the most industrial thing we can do in 2025 is say: “FUCK the label.” Bring back the attitude that made industrial important in the first place—Rebellion. Risk. Rawness. Innovation.
🚀 So What Now?
Stop treating “industrial” like a genre. Treat it like a mindset. ⚠️ If your track doesn’t fit a playlist, GOOD. You’re doing something right. ⚠️ If it pisses off a gatekeeper, EVEN BETTER. ⚠️ Make the music you want to hear, not the music people expect from you. Respect the past. Don’t live in it. You can love Skinny Puppy and still drop a beat that sounds like Giorgio Moroder crash-landed in a post-apocalyptic rave.
Industrial is dead. Long live industrial.
Let’s stop preserving the corpse and start building something new from its bones. Let’s make noise they can’t categorize. Let’s make something they can’t ignore.

C-Lekktor never set out to be a hero of Mexico’s underground industrial scene. He never begged for recognition beyond borders, nor did he tailor his sound to win over a European-dominated audience. But through unfiltered rage, raw precision, and a refusal to compromise, he became one of harsh electro’s most vital voices.
Emerging from the shadows of limited gear and a volatile underground, C-Lekktor’s journey began not in glitz or strategy—but in survival. “Life, indeed,” he says, reflecting on how he first collided with music. From folkloric roots to disco flashbacks, his curiosity didn’t rest. And once electronic sounds hit his ears, there was no going back. “I’ve always needed more,” he admits. That hunger birthed a sound that straddles brutality and beauty, fear and clarity.
In his youth, the underground Mexican scene was small but burning with resistance. The few clubs and events that nurtured C-Lekktor’s early sonic rebellion have mostly vanished, but he still honors those holding on. “Working and resisting,” he says of the diehards. “This kind of music here is very limited and underground.” And yet he’s still here—evolving from analog machines and Korg boxes to a digital soundscape that broke down the walls and supercharged his production.
From the beginning, his music was—and still is—a protest. Against human behavior. Against apathy. Against silence. Every C-Lekktor track is a scream in the void.
⚡ New World Disorder: The Rage Amplified
His latest album, New World Disorder, is a precision-crafted war cry born from global dysfunction. “We are living the worst moments as a human race,” he says bluntly. “Every single aspect of humanity is decaying.” And C-Lekktor is not whispering about it. He’s tearing open the gates with his most furious and focused record to date.
Tracks like “Animals,” “Radioakktivity,” and “War” embody his creative process—chaotic but methodical, aggressive yet thoughtful. “There are no rules,” he confesses. “Sometimes a melody. Sometimes a loop. Most of the time I reject what I start.” The final tracks? They’re the ones that passed his own unrelenting quality control. A perfectionist with a death grip on sonic chaos.
🎭 Live Shows as Exorcism
C-Lekktor’s performances haven’t softened with time. “My mind is full of rage and energy,” he says. “What you see is my inner me.” He becomes someone else on stage—unleashed, possessed, and electrified.
And while the project has developed a visual identity over the years, it was never a calculated move. “It happened accidentally,” he explains. “What matters is the message from my music.” Still, visuals have become part of the experience, reinforcing the emotion behind the noise, even as the band now shrouds their faces in anonymity.
🧠 From the Void, Always Searching
Despite the aggressive aura, C-Lekktor is anything but static. He’s a relentless consumer of sound—always looking for new music, not just in dark electro, but from any genre that might spark something. This constant hunger bleeds into his modern work. He refuses to repeat himself. He doesn’t idolize his past. He keeps moving.
C-Lekktor is not interested in nostalgia. He’s not trying to bring back the glory days. He’s building the new war machine—track by track, scream by scream.

Norwegian legends Dimmu Borgir have officially welcomed Kjell Åge Karlsen, known in the metal world as Damage, as their new lead guitarist. After months of behind-the-scenes collaboration and rehearsals, the band is ready to unleash this new chapter onstage this summer and beyond.
🗨️ “We’re excited to proudly welcome Damage to the team,” states the band. “It’s already been a pleasure working and rehearsing with him, and we can’t wait to share the stage together. We hope you’ll join us in welcoming him to the lineup!”
Damage steps in following the departure of Galder (Thomas Rune Andersen) in August 2024, who exited to refocus on his solo project Old Man’s Child. While Shagrath (vocals) and Silenoz (rhythm guitar) continue to hold the band’s core, Damage joins a select group of elite supporting members that keep the Dimmu Borgir live machine formidable.

Flesh Field resurrects its monumental debut, Viral Extinction, now fully remastered and available once again to ignite speakers and summon shadows. Originally released in 1999, the album fused cinematic electronics, fierce guitar work, militant percussion, and choral samples into a signature sound that pushed the boundaries of industrial music.
📅 Viral Extinction returns on June 27th, 2025, via Metropolis Records and includes the haunting new single:
🎧 “Where Angels Go to Die” — a darkly angelic descent into spiritual decay, described by Ian Ross as “apocalyptic in language, but musically designed to feel beautifully bleak.”
Formed by Ian Ross in Columbus, Ohio in 1996, Flesh Field erupted onto the scene with an aggressive yet orchestrally grand vision of electro-industrial. Their debut, Viral Extinction, quickly earned attention for its layered textures and dramatic sonic architecture—setting a benchmark for dark electronic music at the turn of the millennium.
After releasing the Redemption remix EP in 2000 and the critically lauded albums Belief Control (2001) and Strain (2004), the project went silent. Despite that, Flesh Field’s music endured—appearing in the soundtracks of True Blood, The Mill, and Project Gotham Racing.
Ross eventually reemerged in 2023 with the concept album Voice of the Echo Chamber, examining the psychology of political radicalization. A companion EP, Voice of Reason, followed in 2024.
Now, 25 years after its initial release, Viral Extinction is reborn—remastered and once again relevant in a world teetering on its own digital precipice.
Blvsphemy Records has unleashed the latest sonic assault from Digital Ritual, titled ikilledmycoven—and it’s as vicious as it sounds.
This release is a blood-soaked invocation of distorted rhythms, arcane samples, and blackened basslines. Digital Ritual delivers a brutal hybrid of witch house, noise, industrial glitch, and demonic sound design, all wrapped in a ritualistic haze of chaos and catharsis.
Fans of the darker edge of the underground electronic spectrum—think †††, Blvck Ceiling, and early Crystal Castles—will find a new spell to obsess over in ikilledmycoven.

Re:Mission Entertainment just announced Conflicted, the forthcoming album from Fermion, dropping July 25th—and it’s already being hailed as their most intense and fully realized release yet.
The New Jersey-based duo, Augustine Backer and Eric Shans, have been steadily pushing the boundaries of modern electronic music. With Conflicted, they channel the raw emotion of synth-driven melodies into pounding, dystopian rhythms that blur the line between EBM, industrial, darkwave, and synthwave—offering a sonic journey that’s as introspective as it is danceable.
Stay tuned for pre-orders, track previews, and a full breakdown of the album’s conceptual themes, which promise to strike deep into the tension between self-awareness and struggle.
