CoreyLeave a comment

Hurray! Festival news that is relevant to me!

  • And that, of course, refers to Fire In The Mountains. A new batch of bands was announced, including Yellow Eyes, Visigoth, Lykotonon, and more. The 2022 version of this festival is going to be absolutely massive. Tickets are available at this location.
  • Megadeth has named a bassist for the upcoming tour with Lamb of God, Trivium, and Hatebreed. James LoMenzo will be stepping in for that run of shows, after Megadeth parted ways with David Ellefson. Those dates start August 20th in Austin, Texas. Tickets are available here.
  • Canadian technical death metallers Deviant Process premiered a new song from Nurture, titled “The Hammer of Dogma”. That album is set for an October 15th release through Season of Mist.
  • I’m going to drop in a couple new videos today, one of which comes from Benediction. Here’s the new video for “Tear Off These Wings”, from their most recent album, Scriptures, which dropped last October through Nuclear Blast.
  • And lastly, The Devil’s Trade released a new live video for “Három Árva”, a track taken from last year’s The Call of the Iron Peak (Season of Mist). Give it a watch below. It’s awesome.

Late again. However, still in time for whatever rowdiness you may have up your sleeve for a Saturday. We’ve got new Cannibal Corpse, Cult of Luna and Gravesend. Plus a nasty one from Bonecarver, and choice cuts from Baest, Biesy, and Visigoth. All that and much more is hiding behind that playlist button below. Hit it and go crazy.

Howdy y’all and welcome to another Saturday morning playlist. This week, I went and saw Dashboard Confessional again so you know what that means, we’ve got all the new singles to keep you covered, plus classic Blind Guardian and Crowbar cuts, and because our Fearless Leader is who he is, just a little Merle Haggard to round things out. It’s a full house of picks this time around, so check all that out and more at the link below.

CANTO: Rammstein, Cult of Luna, 1349, and More

rammstein band 2017

All kine of dings today.

  • 1349 have unveiled album details and a new single today. The Infernal Pathway will be out on October 18th via Season of Mist and “Enter Cold Void Dreaming” can be heard right now.
  • Crypt Sermon fans, if you’re in the NYC area, be sure to check out the album release show for The Ruins of Fading Light. The album is tremendous, which is why I’m mentioning this. It’s October 4th and Visigoth, Magic Circle, and Sanhedrin will also be there. Wow.
  • In case you need to be reminded that Rammstein is all that is, all that was, and all that ever will be… in defiance of the absurd anti-LGBTQ laws in Russia, guitarists Paul Landers and Richard Kruspe shared a kiss on stage during their recent show in Moscow.
  • Oh how excited I was to see this Cult of Luna news sitting in the inbox today. The new album, A Dawn to Fear, will be out on September 20th via Metal Blade. Better yet, we get this video for “The Silent Man” today.

EMBRACING TEMP LOGO

Welcome back to another edition of Embracing the Descent and another opportunity to catch some fire from this week’s incoming metal. At this point we’re pretty sure you got it but for a recap: if it’s your first visit, we briefly discuss a handful of the current week’s new releases that stood out for whatever reason and maybe, from time to time, a week behind. We won’t be hitting everything because a 40 – 60 entry piece ain’t happening and who’s got that kind of time anyway. Let’s jump in and don’t forget to check out the full listing from Monday’s Initial Descent. Continue reading →
