Keoma releases the first single “Contact” from the upcoming album


Hybrid Metal group Keoma, founded in 2008, has returned and released a new single called “Contact“. The single nicely combines joyful melody and the suddenly changing moods that the band has followed throughout its existence – a unique, original style breaking genre boundaries.

“The roots of the song are strongly in the 2010s, when we started working on this, but it was never finished. We recently went through demos together and the demo of this song rekindled our interest. I also immediately came up with the idea that the song could talk about today’s problem: Although technology makes communication easier between two people, communication still often seems more difficult than when you used to call your friends on a landline in the ‘are you coming out’ type of way.” Jasse Jatala, responsible for the band’s vocals and lyrics, describes.

OCEANS OF SLUMBER Release New Single & Video “Where Gods Fear to Speak”


Oceans of Slumber defy any and all convention.

Now, after signing with Season of Mist, they’re extending their progressive streak even further by envisioning a dark and cinematic new subgenre that’s theirs and theirs alone.

Ahead of their upcoming tour with Lacuna Coil and New Years Day, today, Oceans of Slumber are releasing the first single off their upcoming fifth album.

ARCHITECTS RELEASE NEW SINGLE ‘CURSE’


Once again enthralling listeners with their signature sonic brutality, acclaimed British metalcore outfit Architects kick off 2024 with an explosive new single, ‘Curse.’ Produced by Jordan Fish, the track is available everywhere via Epitaph Records. In addition to the single, the band announces the anticipated second leg of their North American tour.
 
Instantly grabbing attention with a guttural scream by frontman Sam Carter, ‘Curse’ is rife with blast beats, massive guitar riffs, and Carter’s impressive vocal range as he switches between aggressive verses and a melodic chorus. The track is elevated by the pummeling bridge that sees the band embracing their roots with one of their heaviest, most eruptive breakdowns to date. Following the bridge with a stripped-back final pre-chorus, ‘Curse’ is a testament to the intensity and versatility that has earned Architects millions of fans across the globe.
