A TREE OF SIGNS' album "Salt" to be released on the 17th of December

Inspired by the likes of BLACK SABBATH, BLOOD CEREMONY and JEX THOTH, Portugal’s A TREE OF SIGNS have crafted an impressive EP that successfully recaptures the magical spirit of the 70’s.

Utilising lumbering, fuzzed-out bass rumbles, chunky rhythms delivered with strong accent on crashing cymbals and some mournful vocals that sound like a wailing banshee, there’s an aura of mysticism around these four songs. That esoteric feeling lies largely in its message, conveyed through lyrics and proclamations based on Alchemical manuscripts, which will guide you through an occult ritual.

Salt is a rather enjoyable and intriguing release that will surely impress anyone with an interest in occult doom rock akin to BLOOD CEREMONY and JEX THOTH.

A TREE OF SIGNS are:
V-Kaos - Vocals/Keyboards
NH - Bass
P.Tosher - Drums

San Francisco's KOWLOON WALLED CITY unveil their sophomore album Container Ships. Their first record in three years was recorded at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, CA by guitarist/vocalist Scott Evans. Led by poignant guitar melodies soaked in malaise and a powerful rhythm section, Container Ships peels back the skin and brandishes both the beautiful and ugly sides of existence. Elements of sludge, post-rock and indie rock coalesce to create a truly unforgettable, heavy as an oil tanker listening experience.

The 5 song, 40 minute eponymous LP was recorded by Adam Bradley Pike (BLACK ELK, RED FANG) at Toadhouse Studios in Portland, OR. Mixing heavy, meditative riffs and a thundering rhythm section with psychedelic flourishes, NORSKA prove that they are true masters of their craft. Their intense live shows have quickly garnered them a cult fan base, but this crushing debut is just the first step in their quest for total world domination.

MOTHER OF GOD: "Anthropos" full length to be released February 1st 2013 via Smallstone Records

"Woke up at dawn and felt a presence, nature spirits, observing me. Looked out through the window. Black shape. I went to the nearby forest and the journey had begun.Without a direct way, I went through the woods and crossed mountains. Suddenly elated by light, I was under the raven's wings. Numb. Awakened by a thud and the silhouettes of the three. Embrace. The circle was complete.” -- MOTHER OF GOD

Born in 2008 and raised on rock in Morgårdshammar, Sweden, the four-piece MOTHER OF GOD cast off a lot of the retro ‘70s mentality of their countrymen in favor of a more modern approach.Well, 20 years more modern, anyway. MOTHER OF GOD no doubt have some appreciation for the finer things in ‘70s rock – there are beards to prove it – but musically they incorporate influences from grunge and the heavy grooves of the early ‘90s. Bands like SOUNDGARDEN and ALICE IN CHAINS mesh their downtrodden grunge melodies alongside classic inspiration drawn from BLACK SABBATH and LED ZEPPELIN.

These might sound like familiar elements – at least the names ring out – but MOTHER OF GOD bring their own emotional spin to their Small Stone debut, Anthropos, and never quite cooperate with what you think they’ll do next. The band has released two prior EPs – 2011’s Forging a New Path and their debut – and they recorded and mixed Anthropos in Borlänge with Erik Nerback, Chris Goosman mastered, and Sanna Albenius, Robin Gnista and Alexander vonWieding provided art and layout design.

THRONE: Heavy Lies The Crown/The Loser Must Bow 7"

There’s a heavy, groove etched darkness about to erupt in London. A renaissance of shadow and weight, stirring from the soul of a city not really known for producing bands of this stripe. Which is why dear bretheren, New Heavy Sounds, the label who brought you the universally praised Black Moth album, 'The Killing Jar" and 2 scene defining heavy rock compilations, are proud to present what is undoubtedly one of Britain’s heaviest outfits. THRONE.

THRONE have recently announced details of their brand new single which will be released on limited 7' through New Heavy Sounds (the label who also brought us Black Moth).

Both tracks are now online for pubic streaming for you to check out having been premiered recently on The Stool Pigeon's and Terrorizer's websites over the past week in the UK:

AMENRA - Mass V coming up on the 30th of November 2012

Neurot Recordings / Cargo (VÖ 30.11.2012)

Formed in the forsaken fields of West-Flanders Belgium, AMENRA has been conjuring unholy masses and paving their own headstrong way since 1999. Spreading their vision of a world that's out of touch with its past, present and future, they take their adepts through a world of unseen mystique. Their postmodern vision of music, existing of droning, repetitive chords alternated by gut-wrenching hauls can make an experienced listener renounce his definition of music, perhaps even his whole belief system. Amenra puts heart and soul into every note, word and image, and changes the course of people’s lives everywhere their path leads.

Recent history has shown an extremely confident and focused AMENRA. Besides touring on their own and with Neurosis, the band has been branching out and taking modest steps onto what has previously been virgin territory to them with an acoustic record, a book which vulnerably offers their heart and inspiration, and various art exhibitions. AMENRA forges their path while constantly gaining followers, members of the Church Of Ra, a sect, now thousands in numbers.

AMENRA's confounding and compelling sound that mixes surrealist melody and warped subtleties with churning rhythms, pummeling riffs and crushing dynamics stands on it's own. Having found a home with Neurot Recordings, ambitions and expectations for their upcoming release, Mass V, are high. And as you know, and if you’re fortunate enough, might have experienced, Amenra does NOT disappoint.

1. Dearborn and Buried

HANGING GARDEN: 3rd full-length "At Every Door" will sweet dark winter days in early 2013

HANGING GARDEN aren’t new to the Scandinavian atmospheric and heavy music scene. Being around since 2004 and having released two albums for Spikefarm Records – Inherit The Eden (2004) and Teotwawki (2009) – the Finnish group already introduced their view on depressive and emotional disturbing music that is based on the dualism of beauty and harshness. With At Every Door the sextet discovers an even more accentuated and distinctive mix of different genres including doom influences, melodic death, post metal and post rock as well as acoustic and folk quotations.

The third album marks a new start for HANGING GARDEN, because At Every Door is the first output with new singer Toni Toivonen, drummer Antti Ruokola and Jussi Kirves on bass guitar. And of course it is bands first record for LIFEFORCE RECORDS. The Finns do not follow trends and defy conventions. At Every Door is an apocalyptic view on the world dominated by humans and a balefully future. Even without noticeable velocity HANGING GARDEN create lasting impressive contrasts that affect their listeners in the innermost. There are hints of optimism, but overall listeners will undergo depressive and less confident music in between Cult of Luna and Sigur Ros.

"Dark, melancholic and spiced up with some well-dosed heaviness At Every Door is the perfect soundtrack for dark winter days!"

RELEASE DATES:
January 25th, 2013 (Finnland + digital)

SUNSWITCH (12" VINYL / DIGITAL ALBUM) - Progressive Jazz Drone Rock

SUNSWITCH is Kristoffer Lo, Trond Frønes and Tomas Järmyr. Together they have created a three-headed monster that's impossibly impressive. To make things clear: SUNSWITCH will never be mainstream favourites, but they deserve their reputation as one of the most uncompromising, cacophonous and unique bands out there.

Inspired by sounds such as Sunn O)), Sleep, Earth and Noxagt, SUNSWITCH will blow you away with their dark post-apocalyptic esthetics and sounds. With a total lack of respect Sunswitch will submerge you into a dark world that'll frighten, overwhelm and ultimately embrace you within itself.

Somewhere between doom metal and gloomy post-rock Trond, Kristoffer and Tomas set out to create somethings very different and distinctive you won´t have heard before. Surging bass guitars, distorted layers of tuba and unpredictably heavy drums become sounds so full of haunted bass frequencies that neither body nor soul is left unharmed.

SUNSWITCH release their selftitled debut album November 16th 2012 through Norwegian indie label Riot Factory. Mixing and mastering is done by Magnus Lindberg, known from the Swedish band Cult Of Luna. Lindberg has also worked with musical heroes such as Switchblade, Refused and Totalt Jävla Mörker.

HANGING GARDEN reveal album teaser

Finnish dark / doom metal upcomers HANGING GARDEN have revealed a teaser for their forthcoming Lifeforce Records debut At Every Door.

Teaser can be found here:
http://youtu.be/BG5aluzqhUQ

HANGING GARDEN about At Every Door:

"The silence is over. Hanging Garden are back with their 3rd studio album “At Every Door”, which is the band’s most ambitious work so far. Musically the album has much more variety than the previous two, combining influences from Cult of Luna all the way to Sigur Ros.
When it comes to lyrical themes, Hanging Garden has always been about dystopic visions of the ouroborean fate that quite likely awaits man. Before, Matti Reinola was mostly responsible for the lyrics, but on this album they were mostly done by Toni."

Toni:

"Continuing the lyrical themes that have been prevalent on the first two albums came quite naturally for me. This album concentrates on different stories, protagonists and viewpoints of what might come after, should our future take a turn for the worse and end in cataclysmic consequences that spring from our actions."

At Every Door is set to be released on January 28th in Europe and February 5th in North America.

KONGH - Cover of new full-length album revealed

... which is gonna entitled Sole Creation. The album will be coming to shops on the 5th of February in Europe and 19th February in North Amercia. It will get released by Agonia Records on CD/LP/Digital.

Sole Creation - the 3rd album from the doom metal trio - will consist of 4 new tracks and 45 minutes of music, with a guest appearance of John Doe from Craft. The album was recorded at eknikkompaniet (Vetlanda, Sweden) by Peter Lundin; mixed and mastered by Magnus Lindberg of Cult Of Luna fame. KONGH's front-man, David Johansson, commented:

"After a very long time of hard work, this album is finally ready for release. We couldn't be more happy with the way it turned out and I really think it is the best KONGH material so far. For our old fans, I am pretty sure it will be well worth the wait and I also think it holds great potential to satisfy a bunch of new listeners. In my opinion, the album is more dynamic and has much more emphasis on melodies than our previous works. At the same time it maintains the harshness and it's undoubtedly the heaviest slab of metal we've done as well."

WHEN ICARUS FALLS (posthc/ambient - Headstrong Music/Season of Mist)

ARKHAM WITCH - "Legions Of The Deep" (CD) coming on 9th of November

ARTIST: ARKHAM WITCH
TITLE: "Legions Of The Deep"
GENRE: Heavy/Doom Metal/NWOBHM
RELEASE DATE: November 9th, 2012
LABEL: Metal On Metal Records
CATALOG ID: MOMR12035
BARCODE: 8022167090351
FORMAT: CD in jewel case • 11 tracks (approx. 57 min.) • 12 pages stapled booklet with lyrics, band photos and info • All full-color

ARKHAM WITCH is a name that should be already familiar to the old school heavy metal and doom fans, especially those into THE LAMP OF THOTH, the previous band of the vocalist Simon and drummer Emily. On their sophomore album the Brits serve one ridiculously catchy "hit" after another. Their influences are pretty obvious: DEEP SWITCH, HELL, WITCHFINDER GENERAL, JUDAS PRIEST, PENTAGRAM, SAINT VITUS, MANILLA ROAD, CIRITH UNGOL... but at the same time it's not possible to mistake them for any other band (except for TLoT perhaps), as their personality shines strongly through their music and attitude. It's straightforward doom and NWOBHM laden traditional metal, occult, but with a tinge of humor, with these trademark bard/brigand type vocals of Simon. And if it makes you do weird moves and speak in strange tongues, you are not alone... you've just joined the Legions of the Deep!

• Featuring two members (vocalist/songwriter and drummer) known from The Lamp of Thoth
• Guest vocals on the title track by Leo Stivala of Forsaken (Malta)
• For fans of: The Lamp of Thoth, Deep Switch, Hell, Witchfinder General, Judas Priest, Pentagram, Saint Vitus, Manilla Road, Cirith Ungol, Valhall...
• Cover art by Jowita Kaminska-Peruzzi (www.jowita-kaminska.com)

KYLESA "From the Vaults Vol. I" coming on 16th of November 2012

It is hard to believe that KYLESA found the time to come up with anything new, as the band from Savannah, Georgia has been on the road nearly every minute since the release of fourth full-length “Spiral Shadow” (2010). Yet they did and nobody is able to explain it better than mastermind Philipp Cope: “This project has been a labor of love”, tells the guitarist, singer and producer. “We have spent over a year going through old songs, covers, etc. and collected those we felt went well together; remixing and finishing them up. We didn't want to release something just thrown together so we put a lot of thought and time into it. I am really happy about how this came together. I think it is a good representation of KYLESA's different styles from early on to present day”. These words help to explain why “From the Vaults Vol. I” sounds at the same time diverse and fresh as well as concise and coherent. A permeating feeling of togetherness unites with seeming ease rare and previously unreleased tracks from former recording sessions, alternate versions of well beloved songs and even a brand new track. KYLESA seem to take a step back from the hypnotically dense and passionately burning previous release “Spiral Shadow”, which was enthusiastically received by critics and fans alike. With “From the Vaults Vol. I” the Americans lay bare the roots of their unique sound in crust punk, psychedelic and stoner rock as well as sludge metal. For example KYLESA cited NEUROSIS, KYUSS, BLACK SABBATH and early PINK FLOYD as influences for debut album “Kylesa” (2002). Therefore it appears only logical that the latter British prog-rock legend is honoured with a rare cover version of “Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun”. As an offering between two albums “From the Vaults Vol. I” by far excels usual compilations. This gift is more than just another collection of oddities that will make you urgently wish for Vol. II. Tune in, listen up and space out!
