DUTCH PROGRESSIVE METAL TITANS TEXTURES RETURN WITH GENOTYPE, OUT NOW

Leave a comment

After nearly a decade of silence, Dutch progressive metal innovators Textures have finally returned with Genotype—a powerful, forward-thinking album that proves the band hasn’t lost a single ounce of intensity, ambition, or emotional depth. Released today, the album arrives alongside a striking new video for the six-minute epic “Measuring the Heavens” and the launch of a massive European tour with Jinjer.

Long anticipated by fans, Genotype is not a sequel to 2016’s Phenotype—it’s a rebirth. Written entirely from scratch and self-produced, the album distills everything that defines TEXTURES into eight meticulously crafted tracks. Mixed by Forrester Savell (Karnivool, Dead Letter Circus), Genotype balances surgical technicality with emotional weight, pushing heaviness, melody, and atmosphere into new territory 💀

Measuring the Heavens: Tension as a Weapon

The newly released lyric video for “Measuring the Heavens” is a masterclass in restraint and release. Drummer Stef Broks describes the track as a deliberate exercise in tension-building—six minutes of controlled pressure before a final, punishing payoff. It’s a song that challenges patience, expectations, and comfort zones, rewarding listeners willing to go the distance.

Lyrically, Genotype speaks directly to outsiders, introverts, and those navigating unseen inner worlds. It’s an album about authenticity, resilience, and refusing to dilute who you are—music for those who exist just outside the spotlight, but burn just as bright 🔥

Genotype Tracklist

  • Void – 3:49
  • At The Edge Of Winter – 6:42
  • Measuring The Heavens – 6:51
  • Nautical Dusk – 5:35
  • Vanishing Twin – 5:49
  • Closer To The Unknown – 4:08
  • A Seat For The Like-Minded – 5:01
  • Walls of the Soul – 7:52

Formats Available

Genotype is available now in multiple physical editions, including a striking coke-bottle green splatter vinyl and a white/blue marble vinyl gatefold with printed lyric insert, as well as a classic black vinyl edition and CD digipak.

Reclaiming the Stage

TEXTURES have spent years building a fiercely loyal global following—from headlining festivals in India to becoming a fixture at European metal landmarks like Hellfest, Wacken Open Air, Graspop, and Brutal Assault. Now, they’re set to reclaim their place as one of progressive metal’s most electrifying live acts.

Kicking off today in Cologne, the band joins Jinjer and Unprocessed for an extensive 5.5-week European tour running through March 2026. As Stef Broks puts it, this tour marks a major milestone for the band—and an invitation for fans old and new to reconnect in the pit 🤘

W.E.B. UNLEASHES “DRAGONA” LIVE AHEAD OF DARKNESS ALIVE RELEASE

Leave a comment

Greek symphonic extreme metal titans capture raw power and ritual intensity on their first-ever live album, arriving February 20, 2026.

W.E.B. have revealed a ferocious live video/single for “Dragona”, offering a blistering preview of their upcoming live album Darkness Alive, due February 20, 2026 via Metal Blade Records.

💀 A Night in Athens, Forged in Fire
Recorded in the band’s hometown of Athens on September 22, 2024, Darkness Alive captures W.E.B. at full force—ritualistic, commanding, and unrelenting. The performance distills the band’s symphonic extremity into a visceral document that balances precision with raw, communal energy.

💀 “Dragona”: A Live Rite of Passage
Originally appearing on the acclaimed 2017 full-length Tartarus, “Dragona” detonates here as a black metal masterwork with an epic, ceremonial finale—one that fans and critics alike have long ranked among the band’s most revered compositions. Lyrically, the track praises an ancient god through a funeral exodus, cementing its status as a permanent pillar of W.E.B.’s live set.

💀 Standout Moments from the Set
The album also features crushing performances of “Into Hell Fire We Burn”—described by vocalist/guitarist Sakis Prekas as a “thunderous marriage of black and heavy metal with a chorus that literally orders you to sing along”—and “Dark Web,” an intense collision of melodic death and modern metal ferocity.

💀 What Comes Next
With Darkness Alive set for digital release, W.E.B. are already deep into composing their next studio full-length. “It is by far the best material we’ve ever had on a record,” Prekas notes. “All new material must be better material—otherwise there is no reason to release it. Stay Dark.”

  2. Pentalpha (Live)

ROB ZOMBIE DECLARES “ROCK & ROLL IS HERE TO STAY” WITH FEROCIOUS NEW SINGLE

Leave a comment

The third strike from The Great Satan arrives as Zombie announces a massive Summer 2026 co-headlining tour with Marilyn Manson.

Rob Zombie is back in full hellbilly mode with the release of “(I’m a) Rock ’N’ Roller,” the third single from his upcoming album The Great Satan, due February 27, 2026 via Nuclear Blast Records. Thick, swaggering, and unapologetically loud, the track is a boot-stomping manifesto—Zombie at his most primal and defiant.

💀 A Fist-Pumping Anthem for the Faithful
Built on grinding riffs, filthy grooves, and a chant-ready chorus, “(I’m a) Rock ’N’ Roller” doubles down on everything that made Zombie an icon. It’s not nostalgia—it’s a declaration. Rock and roll didn’t go anywhere, and Zombie’s here to remind everyone why it still hits like a wrecking ball.

💀 The Great Satan: A Return to the Slaughterhouse
Following the Top 10 Billboard debut of The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse Conspiracy (2021), Zombie’s eighth solo album revisits his early hellbilly DNA—punk-infused, horror-soaked, and relentlessly anthemic. The Great Satan leans hard into chaos with tracks like “Punks And Demons,” “Heathen Days,” “Tarantula,” and the new single anchoring the assault.

💀 Summer 2026: Monsters on the Road
Zombie has also confirmed a Summer 2026 co-headlining North American tour with longtime collaborator and labelmate Marilyn Manson. The run features support from The Hu and Orgy—a stacked lineup designed for maximum impact.

The Browning Ascends Again with “Dominator [EVOLVED]”

Leave a comment

The Browning return in full combat mode with Dominator [EVOLVED], a re-engineered strike that upgrades one of their most aggressive tracks into a sharper, heavier, and more futuristic weapon. This isn’t a remix for convenience. It’s a recalibration for domination.

A Track Rebuilt for Maximum Impact

💀 From the opening moments, Dominator [EVOLVED] hits harder and moves faster, tightening the band’s signature fusion of industrial electronics, deathcore brutality, and cybernetic atmosphere. The low-end is thicker, the synth architecture more hostile, and the percussion feels engineered for mass destruction rather than passive listening.

This evolved version strips away any excess and reinforces what The Browning do best: turning mechanical precision into raw aggression. The result is a track that feels less like a song and more like a system takeover.

Cybernetic Aggression, Perfected

⚙️ The band’s trademark blend of machine-driven sound design and bone-crushing riffs reaches new clarity here. Vocals are more commanding, the drops more punishing, and the overall mix pushes the track into club-and-pit-ready territory. Dominator [EVOLVED] doesn’t just revisit the past, it upgrades it for the present battlefield.

Why This Release Matters

🔥 This single reinforces The Browning’s position at the intersection of metal, industrial, and electronic extremity. It’s a reminder that evolution is not optional in heavy music. You either adapt, or you get erased. Dominator [EVOLVED] chooses adaptation through force.

💀 LOWLIFE RISES FROM THE WEST COAST UNDERGROUND 💀

Los Angeles heavy hitters Fatalist return with a punishing new visual statement that drags modern metalcore back into the gutter — and dares you to sit with it.

Released just 14 hours ago, LOWLIFE marks the latest chapter in the evolving sonic identity of Fatalist, a project that continues to blur the lines between nu-core aggression, modern metal brutality, and raw emotional confrontation.

There’s no polish-for-radio here. LOWLIFE hits like a clenched jaw and a swinging fist — intentional, uncomfortable, and unapologetically real.

⚠️ A VIDEO THAT STARES BACK

The official music video for LOWLIFE doesn’t just accompany the track — it amplifies it. Shot with a stripped-down, confrontational visual style, the video places the viewer face-to-face with the band’s raw intensity. Stark lighting, claustrophobic framing, and chaotic performance energy combine to mirror the song’s internal tension.

This isn’t escapism. It’s confrontation.

The visuals feel grounded in the same emotional weight as the music — a reflection of frustration, self-awareness, and the grind of existing at the margins. Every frame reinforces the feeling that LOWLIFE isn’t a character — it’s a mirror.

🔥 LOS ANGELES DNA, NO COMPROMISE

Forged in Los Angeles, California, Fatalist channels the city’s volatile underground energy into a sound that feels both modern and feral. This is music born from concrete, sweat-soaked rooms, and the pressure of a scene that doesn’t hand anything out for free.

LOWLIFE continues the band’s trajectory of releases that prioritize impact over comfort, proving Fatalist isn’t chasing trends — they’re documenting a state of mind shaped by survival, grit, and defiance.

🔥 The Browning Ignite a New Era With “Burn This World [EVOLVED]” 💀⚙️

The Browning have officially announced Burn This World [EVOLVED], a reengineered and weaponized evolution of one of their most defining tracks. This isn’t a simple remix or reissue—it’s a full-scale reconstruction designed to hit harder, move faster, and reflect just how far the band’s cyber-metal assault has progressed.

Known for fusing extreme metal brutality with relentless electronic programming, The Browning use [EVOLVED] as both a statement and a warning. The track revisits familiar foundations while amplifying everything—heavier drops, sharper synth architecture, and a modernized sonic core built for today’s dystopian landscape. It’s the sound of a band refusing stagnation, constantly rewriting their own rulebook.

“Burn This World [EVOLVED]” stands as proof that The Browning are not content to live in past victories. Instead, they continue to adapt, mutate, and push their hybrid sound into more aggressive and future-forward territory—where metal, electronics, and chaos collide at full force.

This evolution isn’t about nostalgia. It’s about dominance.

💀 The Browning Ascend to the Next Level with “EVOLVE” — A Relentless New Single via FiXT

🔥 The fusion of metal and electronic music has a new apex predator — The Browning have dropped their latest single, “EVOLVE,” through FiXT, and it’s a brutal showcase of human endurance, transformation, and defiance against stagnation. Fronted by visionary Jonny McBee, the track represents a continuation of The Browning’s signature cyber-metal hybrid, pushing their aggressive sound to new, futuristic heights.

💥 “EVOLVE” hits with mechanical precision — blending deathcore breakdowns, industrial pulse, and apocalyptic synths that mirror both the chaos and promise of modern existence. Lyrically, the song captures the struggle to grow in a collapsing world, reminding listeners that pain and persistence are catalysts for true evolution. It’s not just a single — it’s an anthem for anyone refusing to stay static in the face of destruction.

🎧 Produced and engineered by McBee himself, the track balances machine-like brutality with cinematic atmosphere, creating a soundscape that’s both punishing and uplifting. Longtime fans will recognize The Browning’s unmistakable energy, but “EVOLVE” also signals a sharper, more refined sonic direction that could define their next era.

🔥 Since their 2011 debut Burn This World, The Browning have remained a force in the industrial metal scene, uniting EDM, hardcore, and cyberpunk aesthetics into something uniquely their own. “EVOLVE” reaffirms their legacy — and hints at a possible new album that could take their sound even deeper into the digital abyss.

WORST ONES Drop Crushing New Single & Video “Deny Reality” 💀

Philadelphia’s industrial sludge metal insurgents WORST ONES have returned with a brutal new single and video, Deny Reality—a sonic assault that cuts through willful ignorance with venom, distortion, and uncompromising heaviness.

⚡ Claustrophobic & Hypnotic Sound
Deny Reality channels the bleak pulse of Godflesh, the twisted hooks of Nine Inch Nails and Marilyn Manson, and the sample-driven chaos of Skinny Puppy. Built on relentless electronic percussion and skittering hi-hats that slice through layers of noise loops, the track morphs shredded guitars into inhuman fragments. A towering chorus rises above the chaos, before a crushing breakdown drags the listener into sludge-drenched oblivion.

💀 Lyrical Warfare Against Ignorance
At its core, Deny Reality confronts the culture of willful blindness that has metastasized into complicity. With lyrics like “Cast out your empathy, behold your tragedy” and “My nightmares are dreams, you deny reality,” the track attacks the toxic refusal to see truth—an ignorance that sustains violence and accelerates collapse. It’s not an escape—it’s the very engine of destruction.

🎶 Listen Now
Apple Music – Spotify

🔥 Noise as Resistance
The track will also appear on Abolish ICE, a Philadelphia-based compilation featuring 16 local metal, hardcore, and punk bands—including Trunk, L.M.I., Sunrot, Boozewa, SOJI, Detox Meds, and Get Well. Copies are available in exchange for donations to Juntos, a community-led Latine immigrant rights organization. With this, WORST ONES transform their sound into protest—turning distortion into direct action, and noise into a weapon of resistance.

🎛️ Behind the Sound
Deny Reality was written and recorded by Drew Ew and Doppelganga, mixed and mastered by Jared Birdseye, with visuals directed by WORST ONES and Luz Sanchez.

MARES OF THRACE Unleash Ferocious New Single “Anticipatory Grief” Ahead of New Album The Loss

Canadian sludge-noise duo Mares of Thrace are back with another crushing chapter in their journey through sorrow and sonic chaos. Their latest single, “Anticipatory Grief,” is out now, offering a raw and relentless preview of their upcoming full-length record The Loss, due out May 16 via Artoffact Records.

Listen to “Anticipatory Grief”

The third track to emerge from The Loss, “Anticipatory Grief” erupts with an ominous guitar riff that spirals into crushing distortion. Thérèse Lanz delivers a feral vocal performance that feels like a cathartic exorcism, while drummer Casey Rodgers smashes forward with thunderous precision. Together, they create a suffocating wall of sound steeped in dread, anxiety, and inevitability.

Lanz explains the meaning behind the song:

“The songs on The Loss follow the sequence of Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’ famous stages of grief, but in my reading I found descriptions of very specific flavors of grief that often go unacknowledged—bonus grief, if you will. Anticipatory Grief is the pain of watching loss creep slowly toward you, knowing it’s coming, and feeling helpless in that long descent.”

Following their previous release, Complicated Grief, this new single continues the band’s emotional excavation through the psychological terrain of mourning and survival. Gritty, visceral, and unapologetically dark, “Anticipatory Grief” is more than a song—it’s a confrontation with pain.

Pre-order The Loss now via Bandcamp

🎧 Stream “Anticipatory Grief”

💿 About The Loss

Produced by Scott Evans (Sumac, Sleep, Yautja), The Loss is the band’s fourth full-length and most personal release to date. A thematic reflection on the complex stages of grief, each track dives deeper into human vulnerability and strength. It’s an unflinching gaze into mortality, transformation, and the universality of emotional wreckage.

🔥 About Mares of Thrace

Formed in Canada, Mares of Thrace fuse sludge, doom, noise rock, and hardcore into a pulverizing sound that defies easy categorization. Frontwoman Thérèse Lanz (hailed as “an unrivalled monster of a frontperson” by Exclaim!), and drummer Casey Rodgers (also known for stepping in for Gene Hoglan in Zimmer’s Hole) bring a devastating presence to both stage and studio.

After re-emerging in 2022 with The Exile, the band toured extensively across North America and Europe with heavyweights like Conan, Bell Witch, and KEN mode, all while earning critical acclaim. Now signed to Artoffact Records (Kaelan Mikla, GGGOLDDD), their upcoming album marks their most ambitious evolution yet.

🕯️ ABOUT CABAL 🕯️

CABAL are a sonic plague from Denmark—uncompromising, unrelenting, and unfathomably heavy. Since their 2018 debut, they’ve decimated stages across the globe with their crushing fusion of deathcore, metalcore, industrial noise, and pitch-black atmospheres.

Everything Rots is CABAL’s most punishing, personal, and visceral record to date. Rife with bleak themes—depression, betrayal, trauma, and decay—it’s a mirror to a crumbling world. The band channels real-life experiences into each track with gut-wrenching authenticity and devastating force. 💀

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

CABAL is:
🩸 Andreas Bjulver – Vocals
🩸 Arlie Johnsson – Guitars
🩸 Malthe Strøyer Sørensen – Bass
🩸 Nikolaj Kaae Kirk – Drums

SICKSENSE Unleashes New Single ‘Follow Me’ 🎤🔥

New Album Cross Me Twice Drops March 28th + U.S. Summer Tour Announced! 🎸

The countdown is officially on! Phoenix-based nu-metal powerhouse SICKSENSE is gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated debut full-length album, Cross Me Twice, arriving March 28th via Earache Records. As the final taste before the album’s drop, the band has just unveiled their electrifying new single, “Follow Me”, a track packed with raw emotion, crushing riffs, and anthemic melodies.

🔊 Stream “Follow Me”: https://earache.lnk.to/FollowMe
🎥 Watch the “Follow Me” Music Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ht1VWbWfods
💿 Pre-Order Cross Me Twice: http://tinyurl.com/SicksenseStoreUS

🎤 SICKSENSE on “Follow Me”

Co-vocalist Killer V shares the deep meaning behind the track:

“‘Follow Me’ is about two people being together at the wrong place at the wrong time in that point of their lives. It’s a story of realizing and acknowledging that they just aren’t meant to be together. It doesn’t mean they’re bad people, they just aren’t right for each other.

We’re all flawed, we’ve all done or said things we regret. Growth comes from learning from our mistakes, recognizing when we’re wrong, and moving forward.

I love that this is the final track on Cross Me Twice. It doesn’t leave on a positive or negative note—it leaves the future open with possibilities, just like our journey as a band.”

🔥 Cross Me Twice – Out March 28th!

💿 Tracklist:
1️⃣ Sellout
2️⃣ Wildfires
3️⃣ Throwback
4️⃣ Fever Dream
5️⃣ Invisible
6️⃣ On Repeat
7️⃣ Masquerade Parade
8️⃣ In This Carousel
9️⃣ Here Come All The Memories
🔟 Follow Me

From the creative minds of Vicky “Killer V” Psarakis (ex-The Agonist) and Rob The Ripper (Stuck Mojo), SICKSENSE is redefining nu-metal with a fresh, high-energy approach. Featuring Agent Phil (guitar), The Gothfather (bass), and Smokin’ J (drums), the band fuses nu-metal, metalcore, and electronic elements to create a genre-defying sound.

🎵 Listen to previous singles: Wildfires, On Repeat, Masquerade Parade, and In This Carousel.

Killer V on Cross Me Twice:

“Cross Me Twice takes listeners on an emotional rollercoaster. We’ve evolved from our traditional nu-metal roots by incorporating modern metal and electronic elements. The heavy parts got heavier, the soft parts got softer, and the catchy parts got catchier.

We faced challenges while making this album, parting ways with former members and bringing in new ones. Those struggles inspired the lyrics, making this our most personal and powerful record yet.

Working with producer Joey Doherty elevated the record’s sound to the next level, and we believe this will be one of the best-sounding albums of 2025. We poured our hearts into this, and we hope it resonates with our fans just as much as it does with us.”

DROUTH Announces New Album The Teeth of Time – Out May 16th via Eternal Warfare Records 🔥⚔️

New Single “False Grail” Streaming Now! 🎶💀

Portland’s blackened death metal force DROUTH returns this spring with the highly anticipated release of their third full-length album, The Teeth of Time, arriving May 16th via Eternal Warfare Records. Following their critically acclaimed 2020 release Excerpts From a Dread Liturgy, the new record is an unrelenting storm of doom-laden intensity, existential dread, and sonic brutality.

A Manifestation of Torment and Chaos 🖤🔥

DROUTH comments on the upcoming release:
“We are proud to present The Teeth of Time, a culmination of several years of blood, sweat, and pain. It is a nightmare made manifest, and we are both eager to share our creative work and grateful to the many people who helped make it possible.”

To mark the album’s announcement, the band has unveiled “False Grail,” a harrowing preview of the hellscape awaiting listeners within The Teeth of Time. First premiered at Invisible Oranges, the track delivers an ominous, suffocating atmosphere that perfectly sets the tone for the album.

Matt Solis on “False Grail”:

“‘False Grail’ was the last song we wrote before entering the studio. It came together relatively quickly based on ideas that Stikker brought in—he had it well fleshed out, but we expanded the closing doom section to really emphasize the dynamic shift in the song. We also knew we wanted string accompaniment, so we had Eva Vonne from Isenordal add mournful viola layers after tracking was completed.”

Matt Stikker on the Song’s Concept:

“Lyrically, the song is a nightmare reflecting the disconnect between the true and projected self, and the increasing tension between those poles that we all experience. The map is not the territory, but when the map prefigures and gradually dictates the territory, our agency is threatened forever.”
