Horror Pain Gore Death Productions signed Austin, TX’s crusty death metal destroyers SIGIL for the release of their debut album entitled ‘Kingdom Of The Grave’ to be unleashed on April 7th on CD and digital formats.
The album’s title track was released a few weeks ago and now they’re ready for another brutal assault with ‘Even The Gods Will Burn’ premiered on NoCleanSinging.com at the following link: http://www.nocleansinging.com/2017/03/22/an-ncs-premiere-sigil-even-the-gods-will-burn/
“this is definitely the thrashiest/fastest track on the record and stands apart from the other songs for that reason. Thematically it’s about the destructive nature of radicalized religion, regardless of what that religion is.” comments vocalist / guitarist Alex Citrone.
Vocalist / guitarist Alex Citrone comments on the album:
“Kingdom of the Grave” is pure, raw death metal with an explosive energy to it. It has themes of the occult, suicide, police brutality and a dystopian future. Fans of the old and new school will find something to love.”

Toronto, ON’s Adrian Pain & The Dead Sexy unleashed their new EP ‘Mixed Messages’ this past February to continue their solid chemistry of an ‘Allcore’ metal sound with emotionally stirring and socially conscious lyrics. The EP is a marriage of Adrian Pain’s solo endeavours and The Dead Sexy’s band work to follow EPs ‘Picture Day At Night School’ (2014) and their debut ‘The First One Is Free’ (2013) along with Pain’s solo full length ‘Love Letters & Suicide Notes’ (2012).
Pain describes ‘Mixed Messages’:
“This release is like the gateway drug to metal and heavier music in general! We appeal to a very wide range of musical tastes so guys can play us for their girlfriends, and girls can play us for the guys. If you identify another way, you can play us for whomever you’d like. If any negative response comes out of it, it’ll be the fans that expect every song to get heavier with each effort. What I hope they notice is the constant evolution of our sound. The music itself is getting more and more diverse and progressive, while the song structures are also evolving into bigger, more complex arrangements. I want everyone that listens to this record to feel an emotional connection. I want people to relate to, and hear the MESSAGE in each track.”
In support of the new EP, the ‘Allcore’ metal band has teamed with New Noise Mag for the premiere of their new video ‘Day One’.
“The band and I are all fans of ‘play through’ videos. Usually you’d see individual play through videos like bassists, drummers, or guitarists by themselves. I had recently watched a few that Luke Holland & Jason Richardson have done together and thought it would be very cool to do a full band play through. We were originally planning on doing another lyric video for “Day One” but the idea fit nicely with this track because of all the great individual parts. We want our friends and fans out there, who may not always have a chance to catch ‘Adrian Pain & The Dead Sexy’ live, see us play and get a feel for what we do as musicians.” – Adrian Pain

After returning from a triumphant run throughout South America and right before embarking on some shows with their labelmates Arch Enemy and The Haunted LACUNA COIL are releasing a video clip for one of their crowd favourites, “Blood, Tears, Dust”. The video was directed and edited by Cosimo Alemà and produced by the production company Borotalco.
Cristina Scabbia (vocals) about the video: “Right now I can’t tell you, everything about ‘Blood, Tears, Dust’, as this video is part of something bigger… This is the core of who we are as a band: the sweat, the dirt, the raw energy. It’s our insanity and all of us feeling comfortable with it. I love how by Cosimo Alemà filmed this, the photography, the colors and the hints in the story are perfectly placed and it is the first time we are really ‘acting’. This video is only a part of a much bigger plan… stay tuned. Hope you enjoy this video as much as I do!”

Taken off the band’s latest album “The Longed-For Reckoning”, “Suffer The Pain” is not your typical performance video, but a complex and cinematic staged clip, directed and produced by Michael Ciesla (SuidAkrA).
The shooting took place in the middle of February in Kleinrinderfeld, near Würzburg.
