Swedish masters of melancholic heaviness KATATONIA reveal the final single from their upcoming album, Nightmares as Extensions of the Waking State, out this Friday via Napalm Records! The near-ceremonial new track, “Wind of no Change”, merges subtle electronic textures with KATATONIA’s enigmatic soundscapes, and arrives with an official music video. The band’s previous album, Sky Void of Stars, reached top five on the official charts in several countries, and the new offering marks the next step in KATATONIA’s evolution that first started over 30 years ago.

Urne release new single ‘Harken The Waves’ featuring Troy Sanders (Mastodon)
Beloved by tastemakers and the underground, London metal trio, URNE, have today released a nine minute-plus undulating epic, ‘Harken The Waves’, featuring guest vocals from Mastodon’s Troy Sanders. On it, his and URNE frontman Joe Nally’s voices blend to form a duet cresting the surface of the song.
“We feel this is one of the best songs we’ve ever written. On top of that, we were lucky enough to have Grammy-winning metal icon Troy Sanders, from the legendary Mastodon, lend his vocal talents,” explains URNE frontman Joe Nally. “We’ve grown up listening to Troy and watching Troy live, so having someone like him not only appear, but take on such a significant role in the song, elevating it to another level, means a lot.”

Pagan folk band FAUN are here with a new single ‘Lament’, a track that creates a sense of a darker undertone. With ‘Lament’ FAUN taps into the mournful power of myth, ritual, and grief, an old pre-Christian mourning song from the north of England.
The band have extended this song by a few verses and turned it into an epic and emotional dirge with choirs, drums and old instruments.
FAUN comments: “With a choir of four singers from FAUN, with hurdy-gurdy, flute, key fiddle and lure (Celtic long trumpet), we dedicated this song to their friend and sound engineer, Jürgen Schneider, who tragically passed away in 2023, after more than ten years of travelling and concerts together.”

Pirate Metal Party Crashers ALESTORM Strike With New Single “Killed to Death by Piracy” + Official Video
Explosions, entrails, and glorious seafaring chaos — ALESTORM are back with their latest anthem of absurdity, “Killed to Death by Piracy”! Taken from their upcoming album, The Thunderfist Chronicles, out June 20, 2025 via Napalm Records, the track hits hard with razor-sharp riffs, rowdy gang vocals, and lyrics packed with death, doom, and pirate lunacy. From undead hordes to rusty spoons, nothing is safe — least of all your eardrums. It’s loud, it’s fast, it’s ridiculous – and it comes with a brand-new music video that’s as over-the-top as the song itself. Raise your sails and prepare to die… the pirate’s way!
