Atrox Trauma was founded in 2008 in Hungary with a clear vision: thrash metal infused with death metal influences. After recording two early EPs and playing live shows, the band gained full momentum in 2019, performing across their homeland and neighboring countries. Known for their tight, intense, and relentless sound, they deliver a massive live experience.

In 2022 they released their debut LP On The Line Of Nothing And Something via Italian label WormHoleDeath, offering everything from crushing intensity to melodic thrash, supported by four official videos.
By the end of 2024, after touring extensively and performing at numerous festivals, Atrox Trauma recorded and released their second LP, Where Death Hunts, now available worldwide.

Hell in the Club announce new studio album “Joker In The Pack” set for release on November 7, 2025

Italian/Swedish hard rock/heavy metal band Hell in the Club are thrilled to announce the release of their new studio album, “Joker In The Pack”, out on November 7, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl.

Following the release of “The Devil Won’t Forget Me”, the band now share the new single “Magnetars”, accompanied by an official video, available below.

 

Vocalist Tezzi Persson commented: “Magnetars” is a fight song. It’s about struggle, about not fitting into the norms of what is expected of you, no matter how hard you try. It’s about knowing you’re different but not understanding why, and the difficulty of navigating life on a playing field that isn’t adapted to you. Yet when you feel beaten down and broken into fragments of yourself, those very fragments can become the strongest part of you. Just like the phenomenon of a supernova creating a magnetar”.

Pre-Order “Joker In The Pack” HERE

Hell in the Club, a killer hard rock band with a style rooted in the classic ‘80s sound and its own modern identity, return with their seventh studio album, the first with Swedish singer Tezzi Persson.

The band stated: “This album marks a new era for us, the first chapter of a new beginning.
Nine hard rock gems, plus a moving ballad, for an album that’s anything but boring. Intense, exciting, fun… in one word: rock! The wonderful cover artwork is by Alessandro Conti Mix and the master by the always excellent Simone Mularoni of Domination Studio”.

Founded by Andrea “Andy” Buratto (Secret Sphere), Dave “Damna” Moras (Elvenking) and Andrea “Picco” Piccardi, the band has carved out a solid reputation through six acclaimed studio albums, extensive European touring with acts like Crashdïet, Jettblack, and Crucified Barbara, and appearances at major festivals including Sonisphere, Basin Fire Fest, and Heineken Jammin’ Festival.

After signing to Frontiers Records in 2017, Hell in the Club released “Hell Of Fame” (2020), the “Kamikaze” EP (2020, celebrating their 10th anniversary), and their sixth album “F.U.B.A.R.” (2022), a straight-up hard rock record hailed as one of their strongest to date.

Following the departure of founding vocalist Dave Moras, the band faced a turning point. Instead of replacing him with a similar voice, bassist Andy proposed a bold shift: introducing a female singer. Enter Terese “Tezzi” Persson (Infinite & Divine, Venus 5), a powerhouse vocalist from Sweden with a voice perfectly suited to the band’s raw, high-energy style. After a single rehearsal, the choice was clear.

In April 2024, Tezzi officially joined the band, debuting with the single Carolina Reaper. Momentum quickly built toward the creation of their seventh album: “Joker In The Pack”.

This new album is the first with Tezzi fronting the band – and it captures Hell in the Club at their fiercest. Ten tracks of pure adrenaline, from the fiery opener “The Devil Won’t Forget Me” to the emotional closer “When The Veil Of Night Falls”.

With powerful vocals, gritty guitars, and driving rhythms, “Joker In The Pack” doesn’t reinvent Hell in the Club, it reinvigorates them – launching a bold new era while staying true to their roots.

“Joker In The Pack” Tracklist:

1.    The Devil Won’t Forget Me
2.    New Desire
3.    Dirty Love
4.    Robert The Doll
5.    Fairytale
6.    The Ocean
7.    Magnetars
8.    Pretty Little Freak Show
9.    Out In The Distance
10.    When The Veil Of Night Falls

Line Up:
Andrea “Andy” Buratto – Bass
Terese “Tezzi” Persson – Voice
Andrea “Picco” Piccardi – Guitar
Marco “Mark” Lazzarini – Drums

Melancholic metal band Mourning Wood releases their debut album this autumn – The first single draws a picture of hope for a painless end

“Swift Demise” the new single from Finnish metal band Mourning Wood draws a picture of hope for a painless end, overshadowed by poor choices and simmering despair, but without forgetting the silver lining of an inevitably fading life. A surprisingly danceable beat gives wings to this fast-paced, retro-inspired, aesthetically pleasing late-summer rampage from start to finish.

Listen to the single on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal, AmazonMusic etc.): https://push.fm/fl/mourningwood-swiftdemise

The debut full length album “Murder Of Crows“ will be released in the fall of 2025. The album continues with the themes of the debut EP “Fill Your Grave” (2023) but also takes them to a whole new level.

2021 founded Mourning Wood draws heavily on both Nordic melancholy and its influencers like Sentenced, Judas Priest, Ozzy Osbourne, Billy Idol and Gary Moore. The band that spreads the joy of sorrow consists of trained musicians with a long history of playing together. That can be heard from the tight musicianship at gigs.

The band also played Sentenced tribute tour around Finland promoting the Sentenced guitar player Miika Tenkula‘s biography (Melankolian Mestari – Miika Tenkula) (LIKE, 2024) written by Nefertiti Malaty. The tour consists three bands paying a tribute to memory of Miika Tenkula and Sentenced.

LEECHCRAFT returns with a vengeance and a disturbingly relatable, selft-titled album – out on September 19th, 2025

The upcoming, self-titled album marks LEECHCRAFT’s second full-length release, following the debut “Thoughts of the Plague“ and its special edition a year later, which featured the single ‘Purgatory’ in German label Noizgate’s compilation Brutal Vision Volume 4.

Bursting out of its Slam Death Metal shell, LEECHCRAFT blends potent influences like Thall and even more distant echoes of Bluegrass with its signature heavy sound, combining a range of both clean and harsh vocals. The lyrical foundation of the album’s fifteen tracks explores recognizable themes around human
connection and disconnection – plunging into the dark crevices of regret, self-loathing, or the profound grief of something that never really was.

“Leechcraft” confronts the listener with brutal beauty, painting hideous landscapes
of experiences we all know too well.
After years of silence and personal excavation, Finnish musician and producer Savvier Nelson has unearthed a new vision for LEECHCRAFT. The break served not only as inspiration for songwriting but also as a time of intense vocal training, allowing the musician to take on vocals – the only element that he hadn’t previously performed – and transform the project into a one-person force of nature.

With raw storytelling that highlights the imperfections of human relationships, listeners are bound to find resonance in every song on “Leechcraft”. The already- released first single ‘Atonement’ brings back Metalcore nostalgia to process romantic regrets, while both ‘Claws’ and the second single ‘Cram Me In’ explore self- abandonment – whether for another personor to conform – through a brutal sound that beckons the listener to dance and headbang.

The third single, ‘Liquid Sun’, drenched in Thall, rises to the challenge of proving oneself to others, whereas the title track, named after the project itself, musically time-travels to the 1950s and deals with the concept of forging character through suffering. The heavy ballad ‘Dinner Scene’ then paints a gory portrait of a partnership in decay.

But “Leechcraft” also dares to confront the broader consequences of human
disconnection: ‘Concrete Skeletons’ weaves a tale of tyranny and greed that feels all too familiar in today’s world, infusing Nu Metal into its sonic arsenal. Closing the album with raw emotion, ‘Lavender Fog’ strips back the sound and delves into the realities of Alzheimer’s – a theme both universal and deeply personal for the artist.

The fearless reinvention of LEECHCRAFT has undeniably unleashed a creative beast – one that channels vulnerability into sonic innovation for Metalheads hungry for the unexpected.

“Leechcraft” – Tracklisting:
1.The Weight of Skin
2.Claws
3.Cram Me In
4.Atonement
5.Snowblind
6.Breakskin
7.Liquid Sun
8.Leechcraft

Canada’s DEVOLVER Unveils New Album “Non Compos Mentis” Produced by Mark Lewis (Whitechapel, Trivium, DevilDriver, Black Dahlia Murder)

Grande Prairie, Canada’s rising metal outfit Devolver, returns with a vengeance, announcing the release of their sophomore album, “Non Compos Mentis”, out August 22nd, 2025. Produced by genre heavyweight Mark Lewis, whose credits include Whitechapel, Trivium, and DevilDriver, the album marks a seismic evolution in Devolver’s sound, melding Gothenburg-style melodic death metal with the raw intensity of early 2000s metalcore.

Formed in 2015 by guitarist Devin Babcock as a creative outlet for material that didn’t fit his previous band, Devolver has grown into a five-piece force of nature. With members also active in the local project Dog Poison, the band’s roots run deep in the underground scene.

“Non Compos Mentis” is more than an album; it’s a visceral listening experience. The album features a refined tracklist culled from over 20 demos, each song built collaboratively from riffs and skeletons crafted by guitarists Devin Babcock and Jayde Penner, resulting in a relentless, emotionally charged journey that’s both technically precise and soulfully raw.

The album’s haunting title track, “Non Compos Mentis”, draws from a chilling true story: the 1805 murder of Amos Babcock’s sister in a religious frenzy, an ancestor of Devin Babcock. The artwork was created by legendary metal illustrator Travis Smith (Opeth, Avenged Sevenfold, Soilwork), depicting Amos bloodied in the snow, surrounded by the ghostly eyes of his nine children. It’s a visual as disturbing as the story it tells, and a testament to the band’s commitment to storytelling through music and art.

The band comments on the album’s release:

“We think Non Compos Mentis will be embraced by fans of our first album; it’s a huge evolution of our sound. Our first album was a passion project for Devin, but this record is what the five of us sound like collaborating as a unit. The razor-sharp production from Mark Lewis helped us push this thing over the edge, into something we think people will grab onto. We want to give people the feeling we felt when we first heard our favourite bands, and the albums that made us fall in love with music.”

With each track on the album as a chapter in a larger emotional and sonic narrative, Devolver‘s “Non Compos Mentis” represents a bold leap forward and is recommended for fans of Swedish melodic death metal and classic metalcore. Think the melodic brutality of In Flames and Dark Tranquillity, fused with the punch of Killswitch Engage and As I Lay Dying.

“Non Compos Mentis” is available at the following links:

Aussie Battle Metal Force EVOCATUS Unleash Crushing New Single “Serpent of Chaos”

From the frontline of Australia’s melodic death metal underground, EVOCATUS charge ahead with their blistering new single, “Serpent of Chaos”.

The third strike from their upcoming full-length Inevitable Death, “Serpent of Chaos” conjures an apocalyptic vision where tradition crumbles and darkness reigns.

The band commented on the track: “This was one of the first songs written for the album. Our previous album ‘Path to Tartarus’ had a lot of very technical songs, and I just wanted to write something more straightforward and catchy. The song evolved from there based on the feel of the intro riff, expanding and changing naturally as the song progressed. If you are familiar with other Evocatus songs, a dual guitar lead and big solo was a must. Once the music was completed, the lyrical theme was almost too obvious and basically wrote itself after a small amount of research.”

About the video:
“The video idea was also very natural. We organised Gregoroth to produce the video for us and had a planning session to brainstorm ideas. One thing led to another, and a really solid plan was in place. On the actual day of shooting, there were quite a few obstacles that had to be overcome, but we got it done, and the final product speaks for itself!”

Emerging from the scorched battlefields of New South Wales, EVOCATUS are no strangers to sonic warfare. With a sound forged in the fires of thrash, melodic death, folk, and symphonic metal, the five-piece continue their crusade with Inevitable Death — a towering, blood-soaked successor to 2020’s Path to Tartarus.

Produced by Ryan Huthnance at Emissary Studios, this upcoming release is an unrelenting march through myth, fate, and fury — for fans of Kreator, Amon Amarth, and Machine Head, but delivered with the uniquely epic and sharpened blade that is unmistakably EVOCATUS.

Arizona Prog LITTLE KING Reveals First Single “Catch and Release” From 8th Studio Album “Lente Viviente” Out September 2025

Tucson, AZ’s Little King is thrilled to share fresh details about their upcoming 8th studio album, “Lente Viviente, set for release on Friday, September 26, 2025. The record features seven new micro-epics of progressive and hard rock with hooks and strong melodies. Each song is essentially complex and involved, but comes in under 4 minutes, except “Pass Through Filters.” At the same time, the complexity gives way to space and breath…the push and pull of each song works in a way to bring the listener back again and again for a full audio experience. These songs make you think, make you bob your head, and hopefully make you hit the ”Add to Library” button!

“I think this will be BY FAR our biggest release. The playing, songwriting, and production are our greatest accomplishments. New players on drums and bass, plus a new studio, have really elevated this project. I want people to take a short, mind-blowing journey…like Musical DMT. We are aiming to hit all the notes and emotions…the dynamic range of this record will push and pull from the first note to the last,” adds Ryan Rosoff (Guitar, Vocals).

Lyrically, “Lente Viviente” (Spanish for “Living Lens,” a play on Rosoff’s Video Memoir production company, LivingLens Memoirs) explores the delicate dance between memory and presence, perception and truth. The songs span a wide emotional arc—from reflections on childhood and lasting friendship (“Catch and Release,” “Dawn Villa”) to meditations on immigration and identity (“Who’s Illegal?”), aging and addiction (“Pass Through Filters”), and the blurred line between strength and vulnerability (“Kindness for Weakness”). At its core, the album asks how we see ourselves—and each other—through the ever-shifting lens of time, emotion, and experience. Tied together by dynamic arrangements and textured performances, “Lente Viviente” is both personal and universal, an honest portrait of life’s sharp edges and soft light.

Lente Viviente was recorded from April to June 2025, at Cimamusic in Tucson, AZ, by Ricky Wascher Tavares, making it the first Little King record to be tracked outside of Texas. The album was mixed in July of 2025 at Command Space Audio in Los Angeles by Daniel Salcido, who also mixed Amuse De Q in 2021 and the recent singles “Amber Waves GoodBye” and “Silver Tongue” (both from 2023). The record was then mastered by Maor Appelbaum at Maor Appelbaum Mastering.

Today, the band unveils their first single, “Catch and Release”, a nostalgic trip down the Yellowstone River and back in time to a place under the Big Sky that remains etched in our memories.

Rosoff explains the track:

“I grew up fly fishing in Montana and Northern California with my dad, grandfather, and brother. It was a special time, and the metaphors for light and reflection are strong in this song. (“Polarized,” for example, refers to glasses that allow one to see underwater, making it easier to see a trout coming from the deep to slurp a dry fly.) For my birthday last year, I went fishing on the Yakima River with my dad (“Len,” also a play on the word “lens,” apropos of everything). It brought back a flood of memories and the realization that I am so much happier on a river with my dad (or, as I sing in the song, my son and daughter, who both love to fly fish but don’t get to do it often.) But the overall sentiment of the tune is a reflection on fishing with my dad and how much I prefer that to, say, city life. Other references include “Ten and Two,” “False Casting,” “Bigger Sky” (Montana is known as “Big Sky Country”), and on and on…”

Watch and listen to the lyric video for “Catch and Release” via its premiere on Bravewords HERE.

THE FIXER & TEKNOSIS Team Up For The “Ugly Knots Tour” Across Central Canada

Two of Thunder Bay, ON’s rising metal forces, THE FIXER and TEKNOSIS, are teaming up this Fall for an epic tour of mind-melting metal across dates in Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and Alberta in October.

Touring across Canada heavily in support of their 2023 debut album “Your Lie’ released on WormHoleDeath Records, this next adventure of show dates will be special ones, as they are taking hometown friends Teknosis on the the road who will be supporting their latest EP 2024’s Return To Civilization”, recorded and mixed by Ryan MacDonald at Lionheart Sound Co and mastered by Topon Das (F*ck The Facts) at Apartment 2.

“Touring is something we all look forward to in The Fixer. The most rewarding part of being in a band is seeing people connect with something you’ve created, and our favourite way to do that is in the live setting. We will be heading out with fresh songs, as well as bringing a couple of songs back into the set that we haven’t played in some time. Similarly, we are excited to be playing some places we haven’t played before and some of the first places we ever played outside of our hometown,” says Vic Sin, Guitar – The Fixer

“We are incredibly pleased with our first EP, ‘Return to Civilization’. These 5 songs are the perfect introduction to the sound of Teknosis. Fans of all genres of metal will enjoy our hybrid of metal genres. We are now beyond thrilled to be bringing these songs and more on tour this October with The Fixer,” adds bassist Travis Doggett – Teknosis.

The Fixer is a genre-defying force in the pop-metal underground. They continue to captivate audiences with their latest full-length album, “Your Lie,” released in 2023. When witnessed live, they channel Addams Family vibes with rapid-fire sets, minimalist yet impactful lighting, and a palpable emotional connection with their audience. Their shows are more than performances, they’re cathartic rituals. Those who have not seen them live should brace themselves for The Fixer‘s theatrical flair and emotionally charged soundscapes. Fans can expect not only the immersive live experience they’ve come to love but also brand-new music unveiled on this next road escapade.

The Fixer’s sonic identity is a fusion of industrial metal, melodic hardcore, and gothic textures. “Your Lie” showcases this blend with haunting ambiences, unexpected rhythmic shifts, and emotionally raw lyrics. From the swagger of “Get Greasy” to the introspective dirge of “Your Truth,” the album is a journey through highs, lows, and everything in between.

“When we started The Fixer, we never imagined how far it would go. With Your Lie, we wanted to dig deeper, building on The Prowl EP while exploring more personal themes. It’s been powerful seeing fans connect with that. Musically, we didn’t want to be boxed in. While we’re rooted in metal, punk, and industrial, we brought in influences from other genres we’ve lived in. Blending those sounds has been one of the most rewarding parts of the process,” adds Vic Sin.

Formed out of pure love for metal. Teknosis has quickly evolved into a tight, aggressive unit with a shared vision: to make heavy music that hits hard and leaves no room to breathe. Set to ignite stages across the country this October, Teknosis is bringing their relentless live energy to fans in support of their acclaimed 2024 EP “Return to Civilization”, a five-track barrage of groove-laced hardcore and death metal influences. It’s a compact, violent sonic explosion that lyrically channels frustration and isolation from lockdowns, with themes ranging from societal collapse to personal survival.

With ambient samples bridging each track, Teknosis will be a visceral live experience as they deliver a seamless, high-impact set that’s organic, heavy, and hypnotic.

“We still believe in live amps and drums straight to the cochlea. It’s all about maximum intensity. A sonic experience that’s as brutal as it is addictive,” says bassist Travis Doggett.
​
Fans can expect new singles starting in Fall 2025, leading up to a full-length album in late 2025 or early 2026. The October tour will feature tracks from “Return to Civilization” alongside unreleased material, giving audiences a taste of what’s to come.

Alternative Metal Discovery SAUERKRAUT Unleashes Apocalyptic New Single “He Is”

Alternative metal insurgents SAUERKRAUT return with “He Is” — a visceral track that dives headlong into themes of nihilism, psychological fracture, and spiritual collapse. Driven by a sense of spiritual rage and psychological disintegration, the track captures the sound of a soul unraveling in real time — a harrowing blend of emotional collapse and apocalyptic fury.

Dark, aggressive, and unrelentingly bleak, “He Is” blends crushing riffs with unhinged vocals and industrial-tinged atmospherics. It’s a sonic exorcism — equal parts catharsis and confrontation — that cements Sauerkraut’s status as one of the most fearless voices in the alt-metal underground.

“He Is” is a track taken from the band’s upcoming album “In Madness”, due for release via Wormholedeath.

You can now pre-save “In Madness”: https://orcd.co/inmadness

Formed in 2019 by veterans of the metal and alt scenes, SAUERKRAUT made their mark with the 2022 debut Bloody Stew — a fierce introduction defined by thunderous grooves, dynamic structures, and raw energy on and off the stage.

Their upcoming album In Madness marks a bold evolution. With the addition of a second vocalist, the band pushes deeper into contrast, intensity, and emotional range, balancing brutal breakdowns with infectious hooks and textured atmospheres.

Blending metalcore, nu metal, and hardcore with fearless experimentation, SAUERKRAUT stands apart through authenticity. Their music is emotionally driven, fiercely executed, and unapologetically real.

Now, with the support of Wormholedeath, In Madness is set to reach a global audience — solidifying SAUERKRAUT’s place as one of the most compelling new forces in heavy music.
