2026 started with a bang for heavy metal band Neverfade. In addition to playing several shows in both Finland and Sweden, they’ve signed a deal with King2Music and are ready to make a revolution by releasing new music.
Their new single, Revolution, was released on March 6th and is a track that aims to be a metal anthem, the voice of the people rebelling. Two more songs are due out in the coming months.
We had the chance to chat with frontman Lassi Landström about the deal wit King2Music, the new single, the tour, and much more.

Resumption Video Interview
Resumption is the new doom metal project from Wilhelm Lindh (The Gardnerz, ex-Tristitia, ex-Pandemonium, ex-Allameda). This project bridges the gap between the crushing groove of Bolt Thrower, Broken Hope, Pyrexia, Acheron (US) and the suffocating slow atmosphere of Funeral (Nor).
Resumption’s lyrics address the harrowing realities of mental health and anti-religious sentiment.
The debut album, “The Respite,” out digitally on April 17th, is dedicated to Wilhelm’s father, who hated metal music but always supported his son’s musical aspirations.
We had the opportunity to speak with Wilhelm the mastermind behind the project and learn more about his music, the upcoming album, and the future.

The Valley Video Interview
The Valley is an Italian alt-prog project exploring a distorted progressive genre based on unusual rhythms, where melody is always at the heart of the composition and is never diluted by instrumental overlays. The band’s songs are slightly shorter than most classics of the genre, offering a more incisive and direct prog style. The lineup consists of four members, all with diverse musical backgrounds but belonging to the same musical area of Savona. They are certainly a musical melting pot, creating colorful and innovative music, aiming to bring a breath of fresh air to the alt-prog scene. In February 2025, the band joined the roster of “Volcano Records & Promotion”, bringing their music to the attention of national and international audiences, press, and radio. The band has released three singles so far: “The Valley” in 2023, “Hypnagogia,” “Eons,” and “Magpie’s Eylid” in 2025. The band is currently working on new music, collaborating with big names in the music industry, and is ready for a tour starting in Northern Italy. Our reporter Cristina had the opportunity to chat with the band and learn more about them and their music.

Turmion Kätilöt is a no-holds-barred machine when it comes to music: ’90s disco beats, blaring metal, melodies, sing-along songs, and more—there are no rules. Their live shows have been praised as the most ferocious and insane chaos you’ll ever witness, bringing the twisted world of Turmion Kätilöt to life.

Stam1na Video Interview
Stam1na celebrated the first two decades of their career with the 2005-2006 Skargelin Karkelot tour, during which they performed exclusively songs from their debut album Kadonneet Klome Sanaa and Uudet Kymmenen Käskyä. For the occasion, our reporter Cristina had the opportunity to chat with bass player Kai-Pekka “Kaikka” Kangasmäki and look back at the band’s career, which began in 1996 and saw them explode onto the Finnish metal music scene in 2005.
What’s the secret to such a solid lineup? How has the songwriting process changed over the years? What advice would you give to new bands starting out today? These are just some of the questions you will find answers to in this video interview.
Leechcraft Video Interview
Leechcraft is the solo project of Finnish musician Savvier Nelson (Tommi Silvennoinen), emerging from his slam death metal shell; his music blends powerful influences such as Thall and even more distant echoes of bluegrass with his signature heavy sound, combining a range of both clean and harsh vocals. His second self-titled album was released last September to critical acclaim.
We had the opportunity to chat with Savvier and learn more about this project and his music.
