Animations release new album: “Without The Sun”

May 15, 2017 darkartconspiracy Leave a comment

Polish metallers from Animations have just released their fourth studio album entitled Without The Sun. It’s the successor to the well received Private Ghetto released in 2013.

Dubbed as the “notorious debutants”, Animations decided to further develop their sound established on Private Ghetto. Their style blends melodic death, technical and progressive metal. Soaring melodies intersect with death metal riffs and progressive structures, that being combined with clever solos, stellar vocal work and powerful drumming.

You can stream the album on YouTube and find what the band is up to on their website and facebook page.

BARB WIRE DOLLS Announce New Album Details + Release Politically-Charged Single, “Back In The U.S.S.A.”

May 15, 2017 darkartconspiracy Leave a comment

New Album, Rub My Mind, out June 16, 2017 | Pre-Orders Below

“BARB WIRE DOLLS are punk rock all the way to the bone!” – Vice

Following up on a very successful 2016, raucous rockers BARB WIRE DOLLS are set to release their brand new album, Rub My Mind, on June 16, 2017 via Motörhead Music. The band will tour all summer long in North America on the Vans Warped Tour in support of the album! BARB WIRE DOLLS can be seen daily on the Skullcandy Stage. Tickets are on sale now via http://www.vanswarpedtour.com. In addition, the band is on tour now in the UK/Europe.

“Back in the U.S.S.A.”, the first single taken from the new album, is a two and half minute fiery social statement of satirical punk-rock heaven that well represents the true sentiment of the record. The video premiered today via Kerrang! and can be watched here: http://www.kerrang.com/48533/barb-wire-dolls-premiere-new-video-back-ussa/

Rub My Mind was recorded in the Joshua Tree desert at legendary studio Rancho De La Luna in California, where Iggy Pop and Queens Of The Stone Age made their seminal albums. Produced and mixed by Jay Baumgardner (Evanescene, John Fogerty, Bush), Rub My Mind is a collection of thirteen eclectic tracks that reflect on the state of our world, how to deal with it – and how to escape it! Rub My Mind builds on the energetic platform of their last two releases – Slit (2013) and Desperate (2016) – delivering an album that confidently grabs your immediate attention. Rub My Mind‘s soundscape blends the melodic rage of lead guitarist and former pro surfer and skateboarder Pyn Doll, the crunchy rhythm guitar of Remmington, the pulsating bass of Iriel Blaque, the Bonham-esque power of Krash Doll on drums; all led by Isis Queen’s dynamic vocals and flamboyant presence. Dedicated to legend Lemmy, the album is an exciting retro cocktail of late ’70s influenced punk and ’90s grunge refracted through the prism of 2017.

Rub My Mind track listing:

1. Back In The U.S.S.A.

2. If I Fall

3. Desert Song

4. Hole Of Isolation

5. Gold

6. Call Me

7. We Are Champions

8. Edge Of Innocence

9. Fade Away

10. Contract

11. Where Mountains Drink The Wine

12. Fire To Burn

13. Waiting To Be Lost (**track not available on vinyl)

DAGOBA – team up with Century Media for the worldwide release of the new album “Black Nova”

May 12, 2017 darkartconspiracy Leave a comment

On August 25^th, 2017, French metal force DAGOBA will release its seventh studio album, “Black Nova”, as a cooperation of Jive/Epic for France and Century Media for the rest of the world.

Formed in 1997 and inspired by 90’s American metal greats such as Pantera, Machine Head and Fear Factory, DAGOBA quickly expanded their furious sound with dark, symphonic and industrial elements culminating on what is to become their strongest album to date, “Black Nova”.

Shawter – singer, guitarist, composer and leader of DAGOBA – helmed the recordings of “Black Nova”, which took place at Eagle Black, his own studio in Marseille, whereas Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Epica, Heaven Shall Burn) took care of mix and mastering. “Black Nova” sounds massive with rich dynamics, towering riffs, vigorous shouts and infectious melodic choruses all over the place. The equally powerful artwork was created by Seth Siro Anton (Septic Flesh).

The tracklist for “Black Nova” reads as follows:
1. Tenebra
2. Inner Sun
3. The Legacy Of Ares
4. Stone Ocean
5. The Infinite Chase
6. The Grand Emptiness
7. Lost Gravity
8. Fire Dies
9. Phoenix et Corvus
10. Vantablack

Known as an impressive live act, DAGOBA are about to set sails for Japan in May with full European touring under way right around time of release of “Black Nova”. Stay tuned for further details in the coming weeks!

THE HAUNTED – Wrapping up new album recordings; Studio teaser, title and release date!

May 11, 2017 darkartconspiracy Leave a comment

After finishing strong of tour dates with Meshuggah in the UK and Arch Enemy in Central Europe, Swedish Thrash Metallers THE HAUNTED have been busy these last weeks with the recording and mixing process of their upcoming, 9^th studio album effort. Recorded at Parlour Studios in the UK with producer Russ Russell (Napalm Death, Dimmu Borgir, The Exploited), the album is entitled “Strength In Numbers” and will be released worldwide via Century Media Records on August 25^th, 2017.

THE HAUNTED’s guitarist Ola Englund has checked in with the following comment: “Working on “Strength In Numbers” with Russ Russell as an engineer and producer has been an incredible experience. His attitude and positivity has helped us to truly do our best when recording. He’s just a killer guy to be around!”, before adding: “All the tracking for the album has been completed and Russ is right in the middle of mixing and mastering it. And from the early mixes I’ve heard, it’s shaping up to be insanely heavy. No clean singing, no banjo, no pickup trucks…so fans of country music are gonna hate it, haha! Seriously: Heads are gonna roll. In a good way…”

A video teaser from recording sessions can now be seen here:

REVIEW: VISTA – Allegiance (Single)

May 11, 2017 darkartconspiracy Leave a comment

REVIEW: VISTA – Allegiance (Single) by Carina Lawrence

New and exciting alt rock act VISTA from New York are setting out to take the scene by storm and are rapidly building momentum. With a successful debut EP, ‘Versus’ and their latest dominating single ‘Henchmen’ under their belts already, they are wasting no time by releasing new ambient and feisty single ‘Allegiance’.

From the off the new song is striking with interesting rhythms and is very atmospheric, giving it a deep and dark edge. It is a powerful driven song with strong compelling vocals throughout, and hard-hitting bouncy riffs and beats, giving it the ultimate anthemic rock sound that oozes swagger. This is a song you are going to want to stick on repeat, especially whilst you eagerly wait for their next offerings, which hopefully aren’t far off, as this is the lead single from their next upcoming EP. What they have achieved since their formation last year is impressive and only highlights further that this is a band to watch out for this year.

SCORE: 5/5

The new single ‘Allegiance’ is out May 19th.
