A rare Friday Canto. I must have given up on work early… (Confirmed.)

• We’ll start with Necronomicon Ex Mortis who unveiled their new single “Unspeakable Swamp Creature”. That’s a sample from their upcoming split with Bloodfeast Ritual, You’ve Got Red On You, which is out on February 21st.
• Out of Prosthetic Records, Stormo announced a new album is on the way. Tagli/Talee, their fifth album, gets here on March 21st. Check out “Kallitype” now.
• Swedish melodic hard rockers Art Nation shared their new single and video “Set Me Free”, released through Frontiers Music Srl. That’s all I’ve got for that one.
• Brazilian black-speed metallers Whipstriker are releasing their fifth album, Cry of Extinction, at some point in the first half of 2025 through Hells Headbangers. For an early preview, give the title track a listen here.
• And we’ll head into the weekend with the new video from Elvenking for “Luna”. Their new full-length, Reader Of The Runes – Luna, is out on April 11th through Reaper Entertainment.

“Ein Bier… bitte.”
