At least the snow is pretty today.

• Remember when Gatecreeper released that awesome surprise EP, An Unexpected Reality, a couple weeks ago? Well, their big start to the year just got even bigger as they announced a new deal with Nuclear Blast Records. Does that mean we can have a full-length soon?
• Darkthrone is celebrating the 30th anniversary of Soulside Journey with an incredible new boxset, which they’re calling Shadows Of Iconoclasm. That will be out on April 2nd through Peaceville Records, and can be pre-ordered here. Definitely read up on it, because there is a ton included in that package.
• Harakiri for the Sky released another new one from Mӕre today. This one is called “Song to Say Goodbye”, which is a Placebo cover. Casual reminder that Mӕre is out February 19th through AOP Records and can be scooped up here.
• We’re going to wrap up the day (and possibly the week, at least personally) with a new one from Årabrot. This is the first track taken from the recently announced new album, Norwegian Gothic. That drops on April 9th through Pelagic Records. “The Lie” is available for your streaming pleasure below.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
