It’s Monday. The pickings are a little slim today, but let see what we can dig up.

  • We’ll lead off with some Italian death metal. Hierophant unveiled a new single, titled “Devil Incarnate”. That’s the latest one from Death Siege, which is slated for an August 26th release through Season of Mist. Here’s the purchase link, for those looking for it.
  • This next one is somewhat FITM-related, so I’m dropping it in. Munly & The Lupercalians are releasing a new album on August 26th through Scacunincorporated titled Kinnery Of Lupercalia; Undelivered Legion. Originally out in March exclusively for their fan club, it’s soon to be available to all. Cool.
  • Psychedelic/techno duo Collapse Culture, which features Kowloon Walled City and Bleach Everything members, are releasing their second album on September 16th. Drag Your Coffin My Lord will be out through Pax Aeternum. Check out “Nuclear Semiotics (Superstructure Collapse)” here.
  • Rounding out the day with something a bit more notable, we have another new track from In Flames. This one is titled “The Great Deceiver”, and much like “State of Slow Decay”, it brings some weight. Needless to say, I’m happy about this recent trend. Anyway, the video is below. Enjoy.

Morning, kiddos. It’s a pretty cool Friday, all things considered. For one, it’s my last day at my job. For another, I just had my brain annihilated by Carcass, Ghoul and Night Demon last night at the Gramercy Theatre. (Also, Crowbar played.) You might say I’m kinda jacked on this week, and you’d be right. Factor in some new metal on top of that? Game on. So what’ve we got this week?

Well, we start with Guidance, the new, sixth album from Chicago instrumental trio Russian Circles. Beyond that? All manner of things: Vukari, Necromancing the Stone (which my colleague Manny-O-War is super high on), Bloody Hammers (with whom my other colleague Tenebrous Kate had an awesome interview)…you name it. Beginning this week, we’re also expanding our “Other New Releases of Note” section to cover even more new releases. Want your band featured in an upcoming edition? Send us your info! We’ve added a new submission form at the very end of the post to do just that.

Exciting stuff all around. But for now, let’s focus on this week — here’s what’s on tap:
