It is a really good night for the inbox to be quieter. God damn.

• Let’s start with a tour, and one that has serious potential. Whitechapel have North American dates coming up in March and April, with support from Brand Of Sacrifice, 200 Stab Wounds, and Alluvial. Presales start Thursday, with general sales following the next day.
• Did anybody else catch the new Saor track a couple weeks back? I liked it, but I’ve been meaning to revisit it. Well, this is a good time to do so. A playthrough for “Amidst the Ruins” can be seen here. That’s the title track from the new album out on February 7th through Season of Mist.
• Another tour! And another big one. Chaos & Carnage Tour 2025 (next April and May) will feature the likes of Dying Fetus, Cradle of Filth, Fleshgod Apocalypse, and more. Everything you need to know can be found here.
• Seattle’s Fifteen Stitches signed a deal with Wormholedeath Records for their upcoming new EP, Beyond The Wall. That’s out on January 24th and “Light Psycho” serves as a sneak peak.
• Monday ends with Brainstorm and their video for “Garuda (Eater Of Snakes)”. Plague of Rats, their upcoming new album, is out on February 28th through their new label partnership, Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM).

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
