Late again, but this time because I was running in the woods.

• Might as well start with Season of Mist happenings again. Anciients are back. With a refreshed lineup, a new album is set for an August 30 release, titled Beyond the Reach of the Sun. The lead single, “Melt the Crown”, can be heard here.
• Brutal death metal outfit Stabbing have signed a deal with Century Media. To mark the occasion, they unveiled new versions of “Vortex of the Severed Dead” and “Pulled Apart”… which features a couple of notable appearances.
• A Wake In Providence announced a new album, I Write To You, My Darling Decay, which arrives on July 26 through Unique Leader. Check out a brand new track, with a lyric video, titled “Mournful Benediction”.
• Evilyn, the death metal entity featuring members of Malignancy, Exist, and more, are releasing their debut full-length on August 16, titled Mondestrunken. That will be out through Transcending Obscurity and you can preview some stuff here.
• And we’ll close out with some German black metal, because that’s a thing that I like. The third album from Uprising, III, is out on July 19 through AOP Records. Check out “Eternal Mantra” below.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
