SEPTEMBER 1, 2023 – Empire State Bastard have released their widely anticipated debut album Rivers of Heresy, which is available today on all streaming platforms. The album is highlighted by the short-sharp-shock of the lead single “Harvest,” the grandiose stoner metal attack of “The Looming” and the stark Jesus Lizard intensity of “Moi?”
On October 6th, EPICA’s new digital EP Live At The AFAS Live will be finally available, and today the band reveal another uplifting hit with ‘Beyond The Matrix’.
Coen Janssen comments: “This is our ‘ultimate’ live track! We haven’t found an audience yet that didn’t bounce with is during the chorus. Can you imagine how awesome it looked to see the whole AFAS jump simultaneously?! A great view to end the show full of adrenaline!!”
POWERWOLF set another milestone in their career, and live music as a whole, when they made history with the use of augmented reality at a live music festival in Europe during their headline set at Summer Breeze Festival in Germany! It was one of the biggest productions ever, during which POWERWOLF performed in front of tens of thousands of fans.
Together with ARTE Concert and the 0221 Mediaagentur, using technology used in video games, they created a monstrous wolf above the stage in real time during the set, visible by both fans on site, as well as devotees watching the livestream from all over the world. The wolf was visible four times during the set, during their hits “Incense & Iron”, “Amen & Attack”, “Beast Of Gévaudan” and “Resurrection By Erection”.
Swedish progressive metallers hit harder with their sixth album, ‘Memorial,’ which is more aggressive and potent yet always melodic and alluring in keeping with their signature style.
South Dakota-based alternative rock artist KYLE PFEIFFER, better known as BLACKLITE DISTRICT, has unveiled his newest single, a re-imagining of his highly popular “Just So You Know,” “Just So You Know XL.” Produced by BRETT HESTLA, “Just So You Know XL” is the debut single off of the upcoming album, You’re Welcome – XL. Listening to “Just So You Know XL” is an electrifying sonic journey that transcends boundaries and will excite and entrance both new and long time fans. An expanded and enriched version of the 2017 single, an original and critically loved MINECRAFT song with a viral video created by renown animator, gamer, and creator Rainimator, “Just So You Know XL” stands as a testament to the multi-talented artist’s ongoing evolution. From the very first note to the last lingering echo, “Just So You Know XL” captivates with its powerful vocals, intricate instrumentals, and profound lyrics.
“This was the song that basically started this whole ‘XL’ project. I had to find a way to play this song acoustic, because the original version is a very beat/trap driven track, and here we are. One of the most popular songs in the BLACKLITE DISTRICT catalog, I am beyond excited to share with brand new version of “Just So You Know”, the You’re Welcome – XLalbum this fall, as well as some tour dates! The boys and I are also hard at work on new music and have a lot more in store for the rest of the year!” – KYLE PFEIFFER
