I have a feeling the inbox is pretty light today…

• We can start with some old school heavy metal. Wallop have signed a deal with MDD Records, where they’ll release their third studio album titled Hell on Wheels. That will arrive on July 11, their second album since reforming for 2020’s Alps Of Fire.
• Gjendød revealed the first track from their fifth album, Livskramper. That collection will be out on June 28 through Osmose Productions, but you can hear “Skumringsliv” right now.
• Goat Semen are words I’m entertained by tonight. The South American black and death metal outfit are releasing a new EP, Fuck Christ, on July 26 through Hells Headbangers. Give “Midnight Worship” a listen here.
• French black metal duo Berlial have joined the My Kingdom Music roster in preparation for the release of their sophomore album. Nourishing The Disaster To Come will arrive at some point early next year, so we’ll stay tuned as more details emerge.
• Closing out, Polynesian metal collective Shepherds Reign. A video for “Ala Mai” can be seen immediately below, the title track from their most recent album, which is available through Golden Robot Records.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
