EX DEO Premiere VideoFor Track “The Roman”!


EX DEO have already spread the word of Rome in the form of their first track The Rise Of Hannibal.

Now it’s time to take the next step and dive deeper into their upcoming album The Immortal Wars and present the new video and song “The Roman” on the Ex Deo screen!

EX DEO states:
“The Roman is a song celebrating the roman soldier for his discipline, his loyalty and his will to victory,  the most fierce war machine ever assembled not by individual conquest but by teamwork, they changed the world in warfare… this video was filmed in a remote area in Belgrade, Serbia with a great team who put a lot of hard work and heart into it, we tried to be as historical accurate as we could with what we had at our disposal, it’s not to meant to be a reproduction of Hannibal’s last confrontation with Scipio but we flirted with the idea. Enjoy!”

Damnation Plan Releases DIO Cover as a Second Single From “Reality Illusion”


Finnish Espoo-based progressive melodic death metal band Damnation Plan releases a second single from their upcoming new album “Reality Illusion”.

unnamed-77

The single is a tribute to the past heavy metal legend Ronnie James Dio in form of a classic DIO track “Don’t Talk To Strangers”.

Listen the single @ Youtube:

Listen the single @ Spotify:

Jarkko Lunnas from Damnation Plan comments the single release:

“For our first album as bonus tracks we had created our versions of the movie themes ‘The Terminator’ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZLWEuYO1as) and ‘The Running Man’ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xniQmO7V3yU), to pay tribute to our childhood inspirations and heroics (and oh yes, we still get kicks out of them!).

So for this new album we wanted to do some cover track as well. We were throwing around some ideas to do some pop songs etc. until the idea to do Dio’s ‘Don’t Talk To Strangers’ came up. So, instead of a hologram we came up with our version of one of the late legend’s finest tracks to honor his legacy. So here it is – ‘Don’t Talk To Strangers’, in style of Damnation Plan!”

“Reality Illusion” album release date is March 10th 2017.

The band is currently running a Pledge Music pre-order campaign for the new album. In addition to the new album, the campaign provides exclusive pro-shot 10+ episodes video documentary about the making of the new album.
The campaign can be found from here http://pledgemusic.com/damnationplan

Krysthla Posts Lyric Video For “Make Disciples Of The Nations”


British extreme metallers Krysthla have just dropped a punishingly epic lyric video for new song ‘Make Disciples Of The Nations

 

The track is the second song to be taken from the Northamptonshire’s forthcoming brutal sophomore album.

“‘Make Disciples Of The Nations‘ is buried in the feeling of helplessness and despair as the world is plunged into misery as the wars keep coming. An endless stream of ignorant cannon fodder gets in line to go and do their part for democracy but it all means nothing in reality.  Eventually, all the nations of the world will be without culture or individuality. Goddess Columbia rules ok!” – Neil Hudson (guitars / lyricist)
Hailed by Metal Hammer Magazine (UK) as “setting 2016 on fire” (alongside Textures Dream Theater, Anthrax, and Devin Townsend) one of the finest extreme metal acts around will release their second album ‘Peace In Our Time’ on 7th April 2017 via PHD.
This new studio offering from Krysthla sees the British five-piece producing something extremely special. Part metal, part extreme, part technical, part progressive… Aurally this is a metal fan’s nirvana. There’s an abundance of aggression on offer, and yet the power of the band is amplified even more with melodic tinges and lighter musical landscapes, which never detract from the powerhouse delivery Krysthla is renowned for.
