Reversed Chakra Release New Single and Video “Stars Are Forever”

Italo-British Indie rock band Reversed Chakra unveil “Stars Are Forever”, the first single and official video from their forthcoming debut album, Healing Heart Rehab, due in 2027.

music.youtube.com/watch?v=FPGgCjDusYg

Bringing together the atmospheric depth of post-rock and darkwave with the immediacy of alternative rock, “Stars Are Forever” moves through tension, resistance, and emotional release.

Darkness runs through the song, but so does the determination to preserve something fragile when everything around it threatens to collapse.

At its heart is the struggle to hold on to a meaningful connection across distance, silence, and time. The stars become a distant point of reference — something still burning when familiar surroundings disappear from view.

Marking the beginning of a new chapter for Reversed Chakra, “Stars Are Forever” gives that struggle a voice, finding strength in vulnerability and release in the refusal to let go.

“There is a kind of darkness that enters slowly. It settles into the spaces between people, turns silence into distance, and makes everything you once trusted feel unfamiliar. ‘Stars Are Forever’ lives inside that darkness. It is about reaching for someone when you can barely recognise yourself, and about carrying a connection through grief, exhaustion, and the fear that there may be nothing left on the other side.
When we look at the stars, some of the light reaching us has travelled for longer than we can comprehend. Its source may already be gone, yet the light is still arriving. There is something beautiful and terrifying in that.
This song is our attempt to hold on to that light. Bruised, afraid, and still reaching.”

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Interpol, Editors, The Cure and Sigur Rós, the project combines atmospheric textures, dark melodies and emotionally charged songwriting.

With more than 5 million streams and three previously released singles — “Game of Chess”, “Dust” and “All The Way Down” — Reversed Chakra have been steadily building an international audience. Their latest EP, Rarefied, was released via Los Angeles-based label Dungeon Media and features the three singles alongside a striking reinterpretation of Duran Duran’s “The Wild Boys”. Produced and mixed by John Fryer and mastered by Alan Douches, the EP further established Reversed Chakra’s distinctive blend of atmospheric textures, dark melodies and emotionally charged songwriting.

Now, “Stars Are Forever” opens the next chapter.

With Healing Heart Rehab due in 2027, Reversed Chakra are turning emotional turbulence into a sound that is atmospheric, expansive and deeply human.

Pîlotinthepicture Releases Debut Album ‘While We Espace’

pilotinthepicture presents their debut album, WHILE WE ESCAPE, available now as a CD digipack and on all major streaming platforms.

An album sitting at the crossroads of post-progressive rock, built around organic rhythms, gradual build-ups and the clear, captivating voice of Josefine Winter.

https://bitume-prods.band.fm

On the road towards an uncertain future, pilotinthepicture provides the perfect soundtrack.

With their debut album WHILE WE ESCAPE, the project explores the stories of people who flee for different reasons, while raising questions that others have long since stopped paying attention to.

Wolfram Zarnack’s critical view of the world is deeply rooted in his background in the punk/hardcore scene, where he has played in various bands throughout the years. At the same time, he has always had a strong affinity for, as he puts it, the progressive rock of the 1970s.

During the pandemic, WHILE WE ESCAPE gradually took shape, piece by piece.

As a drummer, Wolfram Zarnack starts each of his songs with a rhythm:

“I try to create interesting beats, get the most out of them, and then build the songs around them.”

This approach can be felt throughout the entire album. The songs often begin slowly, with quiet verses gradually developing into powerful choruses, giving space to the clear and beautiful voice of guest vocalist Josefine Winter.

With its wide range of influences and musical landscapes, WHILE WE ESCAPE is difficult to place within a single genre. According to Wolfram Zarnack, “post-progressive rock” is probably the closest description.

With WHILE WE ESCAPE, pilotinthepicture shows just how quickly forty minutes can pass when you really take your time. The result is an intense, introspective and engaging musical journey for anyone searching for their next destination.

Floor Jansen releases new single “Everything Is Moving On” accompanied by a striking video – ‘Hytress’ album to be released on January 15th

Floor Jansen releases her new single, “Everything Is Moving On”. It is the third single from her upcoming studio album, Hytress—set for release on January 15th—following the previously released tracks “Run” and “Bring Me Silence” (the latter of which also features a music video).

Built upon a simple concept, “Everything Is Moving On” conveys a powerful message: life is happening right now. The song explores themes of time, change, and the choices we make as life unfolds around us. It serves as a reminder not to postpone important matters, but rather to live in the present, seize opportunities, and recognize when it is time to move forward.

The single, released via REVAMP Music and Warner Music, is accompanied by a music video.

“For me, this song is about being conscious of the life we ​​are living right now. It’s so easy to tell ourselves that we’ll do something later, but life keeps moving forward. Enjoy life, seize the opportunities that matter to you, and make choices that feel right in terms of who you are and where you want to go. Sometimes, that also means letting go of things that no longer feel right,” says Floor, adding:

“These choices aren’t always easy. You can be grateful for everything that has brought you to where you are today, while still recognizing that something no longer aligns with who you are now or who you want to become. Every experience and every person leaves a mark on you. Moving forward doesn’t erase those marks—you carry them with you into whatever comes next.”

The upcoming Hytress album doesn’t look to the past merely for the sake of nostalgia; instead, it takes the weight of the past and transforms it into something sharper, heavier, and distinctly unique. The album’s release on January 15, 2027, will also kick off an extensive international tour, bringing Jansen and her full live band to clubs and festivals across Europe and South America.

SEED’s New Single ‘Desideri Amari / Bitter Desires’ Explores the Contradictions of Human Relationships Through Grunge, Stoner Rock and Blues

SeeD release Desideri Amari / Bitter Desires, a new single that reaffirms the raw and visceral identity of the Italian power trio, blending grunge, stoner rock and blues influences.

What happens when the dreams of someone we love become a burden too heavy to bear? How much of ourselves are we willing to sacrifice to avoid disappointing the expectations of those closest to us? These are the questions at the heart of Desideri Amari / Bitter Desires, the new single by SeeD, released through Volcano Records in two versions, Italian and English, carrying the same emotional turmoil beyond language barriers. An intense and straightforward track, the song explores the contradictions of human relationships, the conflict between personal desires and shared expectations, and the struggle to find a balance between who we are and who others want us to be. SeeD channel this tension into pure rock, drawing on the roots of grunge, embracing the power of stoner rock and preserving that unmistakable blues edge that makes every emotion feel rawer, more authentic and deeply human.

The decision to release the single in two languages is not simply an attempt to reach an international audience, but also a way to emphasize the universality of its message. Desideri Amari and Bitter Desires are two sides of the same story, two linguistic interpretations of an emotional struggle that knows no borders. Having joined the Volcano Records roster in September 2026, SeeD have embarked on a new chapter in their recording career, with three singles leading up to their forthcoming album. With Desideri Amari / Bitter Desires, the band continue along this path, asserting a distinctive artistic identity, uncompromising in its approach and firmly rooted in a vision of rock driven by personality, energy and substance. SeeD have something to say. And they have no intention of sugarcoating it.

Finnish Alternative Rock Band Delfoi Road releases their debut album – On Body Resonance you can hear a deep and genuine love for music

Finnish alternative rock band Delfoi Road has released its debut full-length album, Body Resonance, which is now available on music streaming platforms. Founded in 2001, the band went through a long period of inactivity before returning to action in 2020 to begin working on new material. Recorded as a live session at Astia Studio under the guidance of Anssi Kippo, the album features a diverse collection of alternative rock tracks crafted with great dedication.

Listen to the album on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, Tidal, YouTube Music yms.): https://push.fm/fl/delfoiroad-bodyresonance

Singer Jani Nivala shares his thoughts on the album’s release: “It’s absolutely fantastic to finally have the record out for everyone to hear. I personally listen to a lot of music in album format; about 40 minutes of songs is just the right amount for a single listening session. We poured our hearts into this record and these tracks. We are truly proud of this diverse, eight-track collection! Music is the best!“

The personalities of the band members and the dynamics of their playing come through in a very honest way when listening to this album, which was recorded live using analog techniques.

Guitarist Janne Halla explains: “Given that the band took its first steps back at the turn of the millennium—in 2001—it is truly an incredible achievement that our debut album is finally being released 25 years later, in 2026. A great deal has happened over those years; while Delfoi Road has matured and evolved significantly as a band, the core has remained unchanged: a deep, genuine love for music. Playing together, composing, and performing our own music has never felt as good as it does today. Recording onto analog tape was a beautiful, communal experience—a process where ‘less is more,’ the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, and every band member contributes their own musical input for the world to embrace.”

Drummer Sampo Oikarinen continues: “The live recording at Astia-studio was fantastic; on this album, the band plays and sounds exactly as I’ve always imagined. Live recording is the right way to capture us—getting everything down in one go. The album features a diverse range of songs, so the listener won’t get bored. There are accessible pop tunes alongside ambitious ‘epics.’ Something for everyone.”

 

Coinciding with the album’s release, the band is also launching a music video for the track “Another Way To Feel.” The video is compiled from footage shot at Astia-studio during the album’s recording sessions.

Finnish progressive metal band End Of Abyss releases their debut album

Finnish progressive metal band End of Abyss has released its long-prepared debut album, Escape to a New Empire. The album combines progressive metal, symphonic arrangements, and powerful storytelling into a cinematic musical experience. At its core are grand emotions, memorable melodies, and an ambitious concept.

“The music speaks for itself. One person swipes left, another finds a lifelong friend,” says lead guitarist Alpo Pöytäkangas.

The album is the realization of a long-term vision by Petrus Syvänperä from Jyväskylä, Finland. The project traces its roots back to a time before the first End of Abyss demo was released in 2010. Over the years, the music and story universe developed in a home studio gradually evolved into a full-length album, brought to life with the help of several experienced musicians from the Finnish metal scene.

Listen to the album on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal, Deezer, Qobuz etc.): https://push.fm/fl/endofabyss-escapetoanewempire

“The goal was to create a progressive metal album without sonic or artistic compromises. We wanted to build music that transports the listener to another world while also encouraging reflection on our own time,” says composer and producer Petrus Syvänperä.

Escape to a New Empire is a concept album set in a medieval-inspired fantasy dreamworld. The story follows a protagonist who joins a group capable of fighting their enemy through dreams. As the narrative unfolds, it becomes clear that the darkest forces in the world are deeply rooted within society itself. Despite its fantasy setting, the album explores contemporary themes such as escapism, the use of power, institutions, societal structures, and the individual’s relationship with them.

Musically, the album draws inspiration from artists such as Kamelot, Ayreon, Symphony X, and Stam1na, while also embracing the ambitious melodic sensibilities often associated with Queen.

“What stands out most about the album is its versatility. Every song reveals new details with each listen, yet the overall journey remains cohesive from beginning to end. The compositions and arrangements have been carefully crafted to serve the story and atmosphere,” explains guitarist Juha-Matti “Masa” Berg.

During the album’s production, End of Abyss evolved from a one-man project into a full-fledged band. The lineup features renowned Finnish rock and metal vocalist Mikko Herranen, guitarist Alpo Pöytäkangas, and bassist Janne Koskenkorva (Baulta, Portrait of Beyond). The album also includes performances by Juha-Matti “Masa” Berg and Antti Koivistoinen.

“To me, End of Abyss is above all an incredible story of growth. We came a long way even during the period when I was involved in the production. If I were asked to write the story of how this album was made, I would title it: ‘End of Abyss: From a Dream to a Masterpiece’,” comments vocalist Mikko Herranen.

The primary recording location for the album was Syvänperä’s home studio, which he built and developed over the course of many years. Additional recordings took place at Noise Floor Studio, operated by Herranen, and Musakonttori, owned by Berg. The album was mixed and mastered by Mikko Herranen.

“During the making of this album, I learned more than I could ever have imagined at the beginning of the project. Looking back, there are many things that would have been useful to know in advance,” Syvänperä laughs.

End Of Abyss began in Jyväskylä, Finland in the early 2000s as Petrus Syvänperä’s one‑man project. The first self‑recorded demo appeared in 2010, slowly planting the idea of creating a full progressive metal album. A key part of the band’s musical evolution was the development of Petrus’s home studio, where years of demos shaped both the band’s sound and the album’s narrative. During this period, the project worked with several artists but did not yet settle on permanent members.

When the debut album entered the production phase in 2024, guitarist Alpo Pöytäkangas joined and contributed also to the songwriting. Shortly after, bassist Janne Koskenkorva became part of the lineup.

The band’s sound took a major leap forward when vocalist Mikko Herranen joined. His strong melodic sense, professional experience, and human‑centered working style helped shape the album’s sweeping, symphonic atmosphere.

In addition to Pöytäkangas and Syvänperä few tracks include solos by Antti Koivistoinen, who was involved also during the demo years, and rhythm guitars by Juha‑Matti “Masa” Berg (Remastered).

Cavada Project unveils ‘Pantheon’

In a music industry dominated by fleeting trends and immediate consumption, Cavada Project doubles down on its artistic manifesto with the release of ‘Pantheon’. This new single -the second track from their highly anticipated inaugural EP, Karma 1- demands a return to the ritual of active listening. For this offering, the progressive metal project delves into the complexities of ancient Egyptian polytheism, using it not merely as a historical tale, but as a critical mirror to examine humanity’s present state.

The composition explores the Egyptian pantheon to unravel the constant, historical dialogue between religious structures, science, and reason. For Juan Pablo Cavada, the creative mastermind behind the project, mythology represented mankind’s first-ever structured effort to comprehend the cosmic order. ‘Pantheon’ stands as a warning against the dangers of systematic amnesia in modern society, proposing the recovery of myth and historical memory as the ultimate antidotes to an existential void.

Sonically, the track remains uncompromising in Cavada Project’s fundamental philosophy: the delicate balance between technical proficiency and raw emotion. The song’s progressive complexity serves the narrative exclusively. Through meticulous production work, the project fuses blistering, heavy execution with a modern, digital soundscape, utilizing expansive layers of reverb and delay to construct the deeply mystical atmosphere the concept demands.

Production duties for the single were handled by Danny Barrera at Blinded Productions. The accompanying music video is a collaborative effort directed by José Atacho (Epic Tales Studio) and Ignacio Brossard.

Finnish one-man metal band Rare Elements have released a new single called ‘Our Legacy?’

Rare Elements return with “Our Legacy?”, a fast, aggressive and dramatic journey into the darker realities of the world around us. Built around a dark harmonic minor atmosphere, the track draws influences from melodic death metal, thrash metal, groove metal and, to a lesser extent, progressive metal. Heavy guitar riffs, powerful grooves and cinematic textures create a tense and threatening soundscape. The music combines aggression, melody and a strong sense of drama.

“Our Legacy?” deals with war, destruction and the world we leave behind. The lyrics begin in the morning light over a bombed city, where survivors search through the ruins for their loved ones. From there, the perspective expands from one city to countless others and to wars watched through our screens day after day, year after year. The song also turns its attention toward those who hold power and the consequences of their decisions.

“Greedy clowns and lying monsters / Rule the world” delivers the accusation with deliberate bluntness. Yet the song is not only about those who hold power, but also about what happens when the course is not changed. The recurring question is what will remain if destruction is allowed to continue. The central idea of the chorus is summed up in the words: “Only silence is our legacy.” The question mark in the title turns that statement into a challenge. Is silence really what we want to leave behind?

Musically, the song moves with relentless energy, shifting between hard-hitting passages and cinematic moments that open up the atmosphere. The harmonic minor tonality gives the track its dark and restless foundation. Aggressive guitars and a grooving rhythmic core keep the song physically powerful, while melodic and progressive elements add depth to the arrangement.

“Our Legacy?” was recorded, mixed and mastered at RE Studio in August 2026. The track was produced entirely at RE Studio as part of the Rare Elements project. The result is a dark, fast, cinematic and fierce metal track that offers no easy answers, leaving the listener with one question: Our Legacy?

Canada’s TURBO Crank Up The Nitro with New Album “Listen… Shut Up!”

There are no brakes, and no apologies, as Canadian heavy rock and speed metal wrecking crew Turbo unleashed their third full-length album, “Listen… Shut Up!”, on October 23rd, 2026. Packed with razor-sharp riffs, pounding rhythms, massive hooks, and the band’s trademark greasy attitude, the record marks a new chapter for the Halifax quartet while staying true to the hard, fast, and raw sound that has fueled their rise.
​
Before the album officially lands, fans will have the chance to crank it loud via its exclusive full album stream on Metal Addicts HERE.​
​
Formed from a shared desire to push louder, harder, and further than their previous musical projects allowed, Turbo has built a reputation on relentless energy, explosive live performances, and a unique blend of speed metal, NWOBHM, sleaze rock, punk, and pure rock and roll swagger. The band proudly calls the result “Nitro-Rock,” and “Listen… Shut Up!” stands as its strongest statement yet.
​
The new album follows 2020’s “Fast as Fvck” and the 2024 sophomore release “Broke and Ugly,” continuing the band’s celebration of the gritty, road-weary rock and roll lifestyle. This time, however, there’s a deeper layer beneath the party anthems.
​
​“Listen… Shut Up! is kind of the hangover from everything that came before it. Our first album felt like it was about living in squalor. Broke and Ugly felt invincible, like the party was never going to die. This album is still packed with party anthems, but it feels much more like it’s about the consequences of living the life we lead. Musically, it’s still hard, fast, heavy, and packed full of fun. It’s still undeniably classic Turbo, but it feels more mature and refined, and we’re incredibly proud of it,” explains Evan Frizzle (Lead Vocals, Lead Guitar).
​
Written through a fully collaborative process, the album captures a band operating at full throttle without sacrificing substance. Every member contributes equally to the songwriting, creating an eight-song barrage that balances reckless energy with personal storytelling, razor-sharp hooks, and unapologetic honesty.
​​
“We like our music hard, fast, and raw, and that’s the kind of experience we’re trying to give other people. We want to give people the same punch-in-the-gut, ‘this rollercoaster is more than a bit too fast’ feeling that we crave,” says Frizzle.
​
The first singles, “Kamikaze,” “Don’t Know Me,” and “Deathwish Labyrinth,” showcase the breadth of the album’s personality. From breakneck speed metal and anthem-sized choruses to darker reflections on addiction and personal struggle, each song carries Turbo‘s unmistakable adrenaline-fueled signature.
​
Lyrically, “Listen… Shut Up!” draws heavily from real-life experiences, observations, and the chaos that surrounds the band. Themes range from addiction and self-destruction to revenge, redemption, relationships, and survival, all delivered with the same unfiltered honesty that has become a cornerstone of Turbo‘s identity.
​
Musically, the band continues building on a sound influenced by Motörhead, W.A.S.P., Judas Priest, Pantera, and Kill Cheerleader, while embracing elements of speed metal, glam metal, sleaze rock, punk, and classic British heavy metal.
​
One of the album’s defining strengths is its diversity. Tracks like the blistering opener “Kamikaze” and the locomotive closer “Formula One” showcase Turbo at maximum velocity, while songs such as “Deathwish Labyrinth” explore darker territory through dramatic arrangements and deeply personal subject matter. Elsewhere, fan-favorite live cut “Slut Island” injects the band’s trademark sense of humor into the record, proving Turbo remains just as willing to laugh as they are to hit hard.
​
The album artwork, once again created by Tim Murray, perfectly encapsulates the band’s larger-than-life personality. Featuring a crashing airplane, demon women launching beer kegs, and the band partying their way toward another inevitable disaster, the cover reflects the reckless spirit and wild storytelling woven throughout the music.
​
Since their formation in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, Turbo has become known as much for their live performances as their records. Walking the line between authenticity and spectacle, the band delivers an experience that is equal parts concert, party, and controlled catastrophe.
​
​“We want to give fans a fair dose of flash while still coming off as real people. At the end of the day, that’s what our music is really about. It becomes a raw, visceral, and intimate experience that translates directly into what people hear on record,” says Frizzle.
​
With “Listen… Shut Up!,” Turbo isn’t reinventing itself. Instead, the band has sharpened every aspect of what made them stand out in the first place, resulting in a record that feels bigger, heavier, catchier, and more confident than anything they’ve released before.

“Listen… Shut Up!” will be available on all digital platforms on October 23, 2026.

The tour will take the Halifax nitro-rockers across Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Germany, bringing their signature blend of speed, sleaze, and high-octane rock and roll to European audiences for the first time on this scale.

About:

Like your disheveled uncle on Christmas morning, Turbo is loud, reckless, unapologetic, and completely sick of your shit.
​
Formed in Halifax, Nova Scotia, by musicians determined to create something bigger, louder, and more ambitious than their previous projects, Turbo quickly established themselves as one of Atlantic Canada’s most exciting emerging heavy acts. Drawing influence from Motörhead, W.A.S.P., Judas Priest, Pantera, and punk-fueled rock and roll attitude, the quartet forged their own signature sound: Nitro-Rock.
​
Following Fast as Fvck and Broke and Ugly, Listen… Shut Up! finds the band at their most focused, ferocious, and infectious. Packed with pounding rhythms, razor-sharp riffs, massive hooks, and unapologetic attitude, the album serves as a definitive statement from a band operating at full throttle.

Witch Ghetto Releases Debut Album

From the cromlechs of the steppes to the ziggurats buried beneath ancient sands, already forgotten when humankind first ventured hesitantly into the stormy seas of time, a single cry rises: WORSHIP THE CULT!

There is a path, deep in the woods, that leads to a sacred place: the Cromlech. There you will find the entity you seek. His name is Skinwalter. He is the bridegroom of the Earth. He is the guardian of the threshold leading to the Otherworld. It is said that he first emerged from a portal on a dark, starless night, and that he only rises again when riffs become so fierce that they breach the barriers between worlds and reach his ears.

Now, exactly that has happened. Now, Skinwalter has awakened from his slumber and crossed the threshold, drawn by the thunderous torrent of riffs unleashed by Worship the Cult, the debut album by Witch Ghetto.

Self-produced, recorded at Black Alley Studio and Sotto il Mare Recording Studios, and mixed and mastered by Francesco Gambarini (Shiver Down, formerly of Animae Silentes), Worship the Cult is rooted in the tradition of heavy metal, blending epic and doom influences with a personal and authentic approach.

Available from October 16, 2026 on all major digital platforms and on CD.

Tracklist:

Witch Ghetto — 5:59
The Valley of Gwangi — 3:03
On Another Planet — 6:06
Riddle of Steel — 4:19
Colossus — 4:24
At the Mountains of Madness — 6:19
Black Cloak — 7:05

Total running time: 37:15

WITCH GHETTO are an epic doom heavy metal band from Verona, Italy, formed in 2022 by Tritolo (vocals), Ancient Mariner (bass and backing vocals), El Brujo (guitars) and, initially, Lawrence the Breaker (drums).

After a period focused on live performances and covers of Black Sabbath, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Mercyful Fate, Pentagram, Saint Vitus and Uriah Heep, the band began writing original material.

Their sound is rooted in classic heavy metal, enriched by epic overtones and dark doom influences. Sharp riffs, gloomy atmospheres, and evocative melodies come together through a distinctive approach, resulting in a direct and authentic sound.

In 2024, T. Arise replaced Lawrence the Breaker on drums, and in October of the same year the band released their first demo/EP, Around the Stone Cross, which received an excellent critical response.

In 2026, the band released their first full-length album, Worship the Cult, an independent production recorded at Black Alley Studio and Sotto il Mare Studio Recordings, with mixing and mastering handled by Francesco Gambarini. The debut album represents an evolution of the Witch Ghetto sound, with greater emphasis on songwriting and arrangements.

With Worship the Cult, the band draws on the traditions of heavy metal and doom, reinterpreting them through new shades and turning their influences into something personal and distinctive.
