HEADLESS Unveils New Single “Weightless” Ahead of Upcoming Album ‘Transitional Objects’

European progressive hard rock outfit HEADLESS has returned with their latest single, “Weightless,” available now on all streaming and download platforms. Fans can also watch the animated music video directed by Dime Stamenov (Sabaton, Uriah Heep, Saxon) HERE.

A Preview of ‘Transitional Objects’

“Weightless” serves as the first glimpse into HEADLESS’ forthcoming album, ‘Transitional Objects,’ set for release in late summer 2025. Mastered by Ted Jensen (Dream Theater, Metallica), the track encapsulates the band’s signature fusion of intricate guitar work, dynamic rhythms, and soaring melodic vocals.

Guitarist Walter Cianciusi describes the single as “a hyper-prog song” filled with complex rhythmic textures and a deeply personal lyrical theme:

“This single delivers a brand-new level of complexity. It’s a hyper-progressive song where the rhythm section creates an intricate tapestry at the limits of human performance. At the same time, the vocal melody remains smooth and uplifting, narrating the growing bond between a father and son.”

He further explains that the new album is:

“A no-frills heavy release featuring eight solid prog songs that mark the absolute peak of HEADLESS’ career. We achieved a level of chemistry and craftsmanship that will likely remain unparalleled in future releases.”

A Legacy of Excellence in Hard Rock and Progressive Metal

One of the defining elements of HEADLESS’ sound is the unmistakable voice of Göran Edman, the Swedish singer renowned for his work with Yngwie Malmsteen, John Norum, Vinnie Vincent, Madison, Swedish Erotica, Glory, Karmakanic, and many more.

Formed in 1996 by cousins Walter (guitars) and Enrico Cianciusi (drums), the band initially released ‘Future to Past’ (1996) and ‘Inside You’ (1998) before disbanding in 2000. Walter later revived the project in 2011 with a fresh lineup, incorporating elements of progressive metal, melodic rock, and AOR-style choruses.

The band’s comeback album ‘Growing Apart’ (2013) featured Queensrÿche’s Scott Rockenfield on drums, followed by ‘Melt the Ice Away’ (2016) (featuring Jim Matheos of Fates Warning). Their 2021 release, ‘Square One’, marked their debut with M-Theory Audio and introduced bassist Martin Helmantel (Elegy), further strengthening their sound.

  • “The right combination of technique and melody.”Metal Hammer
  • “Fans will find catchy choruses, excellent melodies, and well-crafted songs—a fine piece of hard rock.”Metal Temple
  • “Flawless melodic hard rock.”PowerMetal.de

HEADLESS has shared the stage with Geoff Tate, Fates Warning, Queensrÿche, Tygers of Pan Tang, Angra, Skid Row, Bonfire, D.A.D., Candlemass, The Dead Daisies, and more.

Guitarist Walter Cianciusi is currently on tour with David Ellefson and has previously toured with Geoff Tate, even appearing on his ‘Sweet Oblivion’ album.

Dååth Release Cover of Morbid Angel’s “Where the Slime Live” Featuring Guest Solo from David Davidson of Revocation

Band currently in the studio recording new material.

Metal Blade set to release band’s classic album, The Hinderers, on Vinyl

Check out Where the Slime Live here and pre-order The Hinderers on Vinyl here!

Dååth’s just released their latest digital single, a cover of Morbid Angel’s classic Where the Slime Live featuring a guest guitar solo performance by Dave Davidson of Revocation. The track was mixed and mastered by Dave Otero with artwork by Ryan Wolanski.

Guitarist Eyal Levi had this to say about the cover: “It’s funny to say this because ‘Where The Slime Live’ is a total classic, but I’ve been feeling like people have not been giving Trey and co their due for the massive impact they’ve had on the evolution of metal. Not that our version of this song is going to change the world, but if any Morbid Angel song deserves the modern treatment, it’s this one. Everything about it more than holds up and showcasing it in this fashion really illuminates how ahead of their time they were. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed learning and interpreting this BANGER of a song!”

Dave Davidson added: “‘Where The Slime Live’ is one of my favorite Morbid tunes so I was stoked to be asked to lay down a solo for this killer cover. Trey has a very unique style so it was a cool challenge to tap into his vibe and let the lava flow so to speak. Hope y’all dig it!”

“As a fan of Dååth since the original demos in 2003 I absolutely jumped at the opportunity to work with the band two decades later. They perfectly executed the recording of Where the Slime Live and I’m really proud of the final mix” comments Dave Otero.

About the band:
Dååth is an American progressive death metal band based in Atlanta, Georgia. The band began their journey in 1999 and stayed busy for just over a decade before taking a hiatus in 2011. In that time, Dååth released 4 studio albums (Futility – self-released 2004, The Hinderers – Roadrunner Records 2007, The Concealers – Century Media 2009, Dååth – Century Media 2010) and toured throughout the world with bands like Dark Funeral, Naglfar, Zyklon, Dragonforce, Goatwhore, Chimaira, Throwdown, Dying Fetus, and Devildriver, making a lasting impression with the metal community and its many subgenres. Dååth also landed a coveted spot on Ozzfest playing before tens of thousands of fans in outdoor amphitheaters across the US, in addition to the infamous and long-running metal tour, Summer Slaughter.

In their time, Dååth managed to create an extensive fanbase worldwide with their unique brand of experimental death metal, which makes it no surprise that the metal community lit up once rumors of the band’s return began to surface online. The metal community only continued to buzz with support as members began making posts teasing new material. The metal world made it clear they were ready for the return of one of the strongest progressive death metal bands of the first part of the 00’s.

Dååth is now back with an updated lineup and stronger than ever, which can be heard in the group’s new single “No Rest No End” that saw digital release by Metal Blade Records on February 22, 2023. The track features guest solos by Rafael Trujillo (Obsidious, ex-Obscura, instagram.com/rafaeltrujillo_official) and Spiro Dussias (instagram.com/spirodussias) and was mixed by Jens Bogren (Sepultura, At The Gates, Kreator, Dimmu Borgir), mastered by Tony Lindgren (Enslaved, Katatonia, Leprous, Wardruna), with vocal production by Andrew Wade (A Day To Remember, Motionless In White, Wage War), and engineering by John Doug

lass (Megadeth, Alluvial, The Contortionist).

Dååth followed up the release of “No Rest No End” with a cover of Death’s “The Philosopher” that features Dan Sugarman of Ice Nine Kills and Rafael Trujillo, released digitally on April 24, 2023.

The last single released by Dååth (May 30) was “Purified By Vengeance” and features both Mark Holcomb of Periphery and composer and sound designer Mick Gordon. The track was mixed by Jens Bogren, with Andrew Wade as vocal producer, and John Douglass handling engineering duties.

CYHRA Drops Intense Third Single ‘IF I’ and Dazzling Visualizer Video, Set to Dominate the Melodic Metal Scene

CYHRA, the melodic metal powerhouse featuring vocalist Jake E (ex-AMARANTHE), guitarists Jesper Strömblad (THE HALO EFFECT/ex-IN FLAMES) and Euge Valovirta (ex-SHINING), has unveiled their highly anticipated third single, “IF I,” from their upcoming album “The Vertigo Trigger.” With its amalgamation of tuneful heaviness, ear-worm riffs, and a striking chorus, the track pays homage to the renowned Gothenburg metal scene, embodying everything that makes CYHRA’s music truly exceptional.

In conjunction with the release of “IF I,” CYHRA presents a visually captivating experience through a new visualizer video. Immerse yourself in the captivating visuals that perfectly complement the intense energy of the song.
Watch the video here: Visualizer Video.



To stream “IF I” and embark on a melodic metal journey, follow this link: Stream “IF I”.

Brace yourself for an auditory assault that blends nostalgia with a contemporary sound.

Vocalist Jake E describes the inspiration behind “IF I” and the video’s concept: “‘IF I’ is a song that embodies the influences we all grew up with from the Gothenburg metal scene. It boasts great melodies with a chorus that invites listeners to sing along. The video, directed by ourselves, features footage captured during our electrifying 9-show tour in Japan earlier this year.”

Drummer Alex Landenburg adds, “It’s probably our heaviest track to date, and I just can’t get enough of that riff! Pure Gothenburg metal at its finest!”

Guitarist Euge Valovirta shares the story behind the creation of the song: “I initially wrote the song for one of my YouTube videos, and the response was overwhelming. People were asking where they could purchase it. I sent it to Jake, and he instantly fell in love with it. He made some tweaks to the verse and chorus, giving it that distinct CYHRA touch. The result is fantastic—a melodic metal song reminiscent of the old school Gothenburg style. The title is a playful nod to a certain band that served as one of the song’s inspirations. The track kicks off with an amazing drum fill by Alex, and from there, it’s a wild ride. Hell yeah!”

Marcus Sunesson comments, “‘IF I’ is one of the faster, up-tempo songs on our new album. It’s Cyhra’s way of paying homage to the Gothenburg scene, combining glorious melodies and riffs. It’s a real banger and a blast to play!”

Jesper Strömblad shares his excitement about the track, saying, “This tune is the fastest track we’ve ever written. It’s so much fun to play, and we can’t wait to share it with you on stage. See you in the pit!”
