century media – Nine Circles

CANTO: Suicide Silence, Distant, Unfelled, and More

Why hasn’t my copy of Foregone shipped yet?

I’m bookending this list with Century Media happenings. First, we have a new track from Distant which features Will Ramos of Lorna Shore. Give “Heritage” a listen here. That’s the title track from their new album, which is officially released this coming Friday.
Out of the Season of Mist camp, we have a new track from Unfelled, the black metal project featuring members of Woods of Desolation, Drudkh, and Austere. Give “Veil of Perdition” a listen here. Their debut full-length, Pall of Endless Perdition, is out on March 10.
French technical death metallers Gorod are releasing The Orb on March 7, right ahead of a North American tour featuring the likes of Cognitive, Summoning The Lich, and Flub.
Veil of Maya dropped a new track today through Sumerian Records titled “Godhead”. Give the video for that a watch here. They’ve got some tour dates in the near-ish future as well.
Let’s close out with the new video from Suicide Silence for “Dying Life”. That track is taken from Remember… You Must Die, which is set for a March 10 release through Century Media. But I’m sure you already knew that.

Lots of tour and festival news today I think…

And leading off we have the Decibel Magazine Tour 2023, which will feature the likes of Cattle Decapitation, Dark Funeral, 200 Stab Wounds, and Blackbraid. Great lineup. Those dates fall in May and June. I have some great memories from Decibel Magazine Tours from back in the day, so it’s a shame I’ll be sitting this one out.
2023 will also see the return of Milwaukee Metal Fest, set for May 26 through 28. There are some big names in the lineup, including Lamb of God, Napalm Death, Anthrax, and so on. It’s a pretty stacked bill. Jamey Jasta purchased the rights to this festival last year, and it seems to be back with a bang.
Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper announced the “Freaks on Parade Tour 2023”, which will also feature Ministry and Filter. Those dates are in August and September, kicking off on the 24th in Dallas, and wrapping up in Phoenix a month later. Tickets go on sale this coming Friday at this location.
Norma Jean unveiled a new video for “1994”, which contains footage spanning their entire career. Be sure to catch them on tour in the coming weeks with Fire From the Gods and Greyhaven.
Following their recent signing with Century Media, and with a debut album on the way, Predatory Void shared a standalone single titled “*(struggling..)”. Give that a listen and watch below. There are some awesome names attached to this project, and I can’t wait to see what comes later this year.

I got some Metallica vinyl in the mail today, so it was a good day.

Enforced have revealed details for their new album. War Remains will be out on April 28th through Century Media. Check out the first single, “Ultra-Violence”, right here.
Lordi just feels right on a Friday. Screem Writers Guild is scheduled for a March 31st release through their new label, Atomic Fire Records. Check out the lyric video for “Lucyfer Prime Evil” here.
Cybergrind group Thotcrime unveiled two remixes of “Motherfucker Unlimited”. They’re streaming basically everywhere, but here’s a visualizer if you’re interested. That track is originally from D1G1T4L_DR1FT, a Prosthetic Records release.
Viscera are releasing their new album, Carcinogenesis, on March 3rd through Unique Leader Records. Give their new single a listen, titled “Rats with Wings”.
It’s a thrashy kinda day. Closing out, we have new stuff from Overkill. Scorched will be out on April 14th through Nuclear Blast Records, and a visualizer for “The Surgeon” is available for your listening and viewing pleasure below.

Hey! I bought concert tickets today! For a show… in August.

Fresh off the release of Dying of Everything, Obituary have announced a North American headlining tour this coming April and May. They’ll be joined by Blood Incantation, Immolation, and Ingrown. So, yeah, a stacked bill for sure. Tickets will be available here.
Enslaved unveiled another track from Heimdal, titled “Forest Dweller”. Check out the video for that one here. As a reminder (which I’m sure you don’t need), their new album drops on March 3rd through Nuclear Blast.
Blackened progressive metallers Dawn of Ouroboros have set April 21st as the release date for Velvet Incandescence, their sophomore full-length. That one will be available through Prosthetic Records, and you can check out the music video for “Rise from Dissolution” over at Knotfest.
Tribulation have revealed details surrounding a new EP, titled Hamartia, which will be out on April 7th through Century Media. With that, a video for a new track titled “Axis Mundi” can be seen below. Worth noting, this is the first composition by new guitarist Joseph Tholl. Personally, I like it. It’s a little different, but not in a bad way.

Holy shit a lot happened today.

And since this is my post, we’re going to start off with my favorite. The Ocean Collective unveiled a new track today, titled “Preboreal”. The lyric video for that track can be seen here. Not a whole lot of other information has emerged surrounding this, but it’s obvious something awesome is on the horizon.
Acid King are returning with a new album on March 24th, titled Beyond Vision, an effort that will be available through Blues Funeral Recordings. A sample of the new collection is streaming over at Revolver, specifically for “Destination Psych/Beyond Vision”.
Full of Hell and Primitive Man announced a 5-song collaborative release titled Suffocating Hallucination. That will be released on March 3rd through Closed Casket Activities, and the first single, “Rubble Home”, is available now.
The Black Dahlia Murder are returning to the stage for “The Verminous Remnant Tour 2023”, which runs from April 14th through May 26th. They’ll be joined by Terror, Frozen Soul, Fuming Mouth, and Phobophilic.
Closing out, we have another personal favorite. Insomnium debuted a new single, titled “The Witch Hunter”, with an accompanying music video. You can give that a watch below. That track, obviously, is taken from Anno 1696, an album set for a February 24th release through Century Media.
