CANTO: Khemmis, Epica, Thy Art is Murder, and More

October 7, 2021October 7, 2021CoreyLeave a comment

So I was wrong about the whole week tapering off thing…

Let’s start with Khemmis, who are streaming a new single titled “Sigil” over at Decibel. That was released as part of their Flexi Series. They also have an album dropping through Nuclear Blast on November 19th titled Deceiver.
And then we’ll jump over to Negură Bunget, who also unveiled a new track today, titled “Tinerețe Fără Bătrânețe”. That, of course, is the second single from Zău, which is out on November 26th through Prophecy.
Epica released a fresh clip from Ωmega Alive today, for “The Skeleton Key”. As a reminder, that live album is out on December 3rd through Nuclear Blast.
I guess this post is resigned to only featuring new singles. That’s fine. Here’s the latest from Goat Torment, titled “Cursed”. Forked Tongues is out October 29th through Season of Mist Underground Activists.
And we’ll wrap up with the new video from Thy Art is Murder, for “Dead Sun”, which is taken from the upcoming reissue of Hate, available through Nuclear Blast.

CANTO: Hate, The Ocean, Ensiferum, and More

I’ve been back at work one day and I’m already prepared to sprint into the woods without return.

This announcement is a couple days old, but it’s still worth sharing. The Ocean are releasing Phanerozoic Live on November 26th (through Pelagic Records, of course). The 3LP features both streaming performances of the Phanerozoic concept album, as well as access to HD video. Oh so tempting.
Seattle doom crew Deathcave have announced some December dates with Heiress and several others. The dates are mostly on the west coast, and run from December 2nd to 15th.
For those lucky enough to be in Europe, Ensiferum and Dark Tranquillity have a co-headlining tour scheduled for next April and May. To celebrate the announcement, check out the new video from Ensiferum for “Run from the Crushing Tide”, which is taken from Thalassic. That album dropped last year through Metal Blade.
Let’s toss in the new single from Goat Torment as well. Forked Tongues is out on October 29th through Season of Mist Underground Activists, and you can stream “Disorder and Disruption” right here.
We’ll close with death metal veterans Hate, who released a new video for “Resurgence”. That track is taken from Rugia, their 12th full-length album, which will be out on October 15th through Metal Blade Records.

CANTO: Goat Torment, Eternity’s End, All That Remains, and More

“Heat… night devour me… repeat… repetition.”

Let’s kick Wednesday off with Goat Torment. The Belgian blackened death metal outfit are releasing their third full-length, Forked Tongues, on October 29th through Season of Mist Underground Activists. Give the title track a listen right here.
Hey! Another Season of Mist thing! Cloak are back in the studio, recording their third full-length. That’s an album we should expect next year at some point. But let’s also take this moment to remind everyone that they will be on tour with Demiser in October and November.
All That Remains are celebrating the 15th anniversary of The Fall of Ideals with a reissue. It’s set to release on November 12th on vinyl, with an accompanying tour and documentary. Pre-order it here. Side note: I can’t stand anything ATR these days for a number of reasons, but this album fucks.
Eternity’s End have signed on with Prosthetic Records, and have announced a new album. Embers of War is set for a November 26th release, and you can check out a guitar playthrough for the new song “Arcturus Prime” over at Gear Gods.
And we’ll wrap up the day with a new video and live album announcement from Armored Saint. Symbol of Salvation Live will be out on October 22nd through Metal Blade, and the live clip for the title track can be found below. Enjoy.

CANTO: Goat Torment, Suicidal Tendencies, Hammr, and More

Multiday hangovers are the worst.

This may fall more into the alternative rock category, but whatever. Grayscale have announced a headlining U.S. tour this coming November (and I guess December), with support from girlfriends, Cemetery Sun, and Young Culture. They’ve got some festival appearances as well, and a new record dropping on August 27th through Fearless Records titled Umbra. Busy times, apparently.
Let’s change gears a bit. Or a lot of bits. Belgian blackened death metal crew Goat Torment have signed on with Season of Mist. It’s been six years since Sermons To Death was released, but it looks like we’ll be getting their third studio album sometime later this year, which is awesome.
A little random, but a fun inclusion either way I guess. The So Cal Hoedown returns on September 18th, at Port of Los Angeles, and Suicidal Tendencies has been added to the lineup. I will not be going, but this looks like a fun time for anyone in the area.
Let’s check out “Forces of Sin”, the first single taken from Eternal Possession. The second album from Hammr will be released this fall through Hells Headbangers, with the LP release delayed until 2022. I’m going to keep an eye out as more details emerge for this one.

Album Review: Goat Torment – “Sermons to Death”

July 22, 2015Manny-O-War2 Comments

There’s an ocean full of bands with “goat” in their names; Metal Archives lists at least 134 bands that fit the bill. It’s a given that most if not all of them are going to lean towards blasphemy in the name of Satan. Goat Torment is no different. Their production may be a little cleaner than Archgoat, they may not be as polished as Goatwhore, but, they’re still absolutely solid. And on Sermons to Death they show their maturity and skill dressed up in full regalia. Continue reading →
