OJ of Byzantine upcoming full length album Harbingers, release on June 13th via Metal Blade Records.Newst Single - The unobtainable sleep.Now a five-piece for the first time ever featuring founding frontman Chris “OJ” Ojeda, alongside former guitarist Tony Rohrbough, bassist Ryan Postlethwait, veteran guitarist Brian Henderson, and drummer Matt Bowles, with Harbingers, BYZANTINE is a crown jewel in their impressive seven-album discography. Notes Ojeda, “After twenty-five years of riding the struggle bus, we're ready to show the rock and metal world what we're truly about.”The album cover, designed by mixed-media artist Ashley Hoey, beautifully depicts Irene of Athens — the mother of Emperor Constantine and the first female empress of the Byzantine Empire. This focus on a maternal ruler eloquently ties into the album's title, Harbingers, which means “ones who usher in great change.”Subscribe to The Adventures of Pipeman at https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-adventures-of-pipeman--941822/supportTake some zany and serious journeys with The Pipeman aka Dean K.

Présentée par Jeff - Partie FRACTAL UNIVERSE à 00:33:34   La machine Fractal Universe a été lancée il y a dix ans maintenant aux alentours de Nancy. Le groupe de death metal progressif et technique a rapidement forgé son nom sur la scène. Au point que les deux précédents disques, Rhizomes Of Insanity et The Impassable Horizon, sont sortis dans la prestigieuse écurie Metal Blade Records. Avec ce quatrième album, Fractal Universe veut poursuivre son univers conceptuel. Les riffs de death tech solides se mêlent aux réflexions philosophiques et au chatoyant saxophone. Fractal Universe n'a pas fini de porter le savoir-faire hexagonal hors de nos frontières. Le guitariste Yohan Dully sera dans notre entretien du lundi soir pour évoquer tout cela avec nous ! Pour lancer cette grande partie d'émission réservée à Fractal Universe, pourquoi ne pas commencer dans la même veine ? Le groupe américain ALLEGAEON présente son septième disque The Ossuary Lens, qui voit le retour d'Ezra Haynes au chant. Ce disque a deux faces, technico-brutal et plus progressif, confire que le groupe est toujours debout. La première demi-heure est aussi l'occasion de revenir sur le nouvel album d'une légende du death metal britannique, avec BENEDICTION. Ravage of Empires est sorti vendredi dernier, prouvant l'efficacité du groupe. Nous ferons aussi une petite escapade vers le black metal, avec un groupe grenoblois cette fois-ci. ALDAARON nous emmène par-delà les cimes avec son nouveau méfait.

Loaded Radio Podcast: Greg Burgess of Allegaeon Discusses 'The Ossuary Lens' & Warfield Talks Thrash Metal TL;DR On this episode of the Loaded Radio Podcast, Scott Penfold sits down with Greg Burgess of Allegaeon to discuss the band's latest album, “The Ossuary Lens”, which was released on April 4 via Metal Blade Records. This marks the band's first new music featuring original vocalist Ezra Haynes since his departure in 2015. Also featured is a conversation with German thrash metal trio Warfield, who recently released their new album, “With The Old Breed” via Napalm Records. Allegaeon Returns with 'The Ossuary Lens' Technical death metal powerhouse Allegaeon has unleashed their latest full-length album, “The Ossuary Lens,” released on April 4 via Metal Blade Records. This album marks a significant moment for the band, as it is their first release with original vocalist Ezra Haynes since his 2015 departure following the “Elements Of The Infinite” album. The return of Haynes brings back Allegaeon's brutal and technically dazzling sound, which fans have been eagerly awaiting. The band's latest single, “Driftwood,” serves as a powerful introduction to the new record, with its unique blend of melodic, technical death metal — a sound Haynes describes as “melotech.” “We're just so happy to finally release new music,” said Greg Burgess. “We're working on a full album's worth of material, but I feel like it's gonna drop kind of in chunks and then hopefully the rest of it all at once kind of thing.” Recording once again with producer Dave Otero at Flatline Audio studio in Denver, Allegaeon continues their 17-year relationship with the producer. “Dave always provides a comfortable working environment, amazing ideas, and a career-spanning understanding of what has made Allegaeon, Allegaeon,” added Burgess. The album's overarching theme focuses on various perspectives of death, with each track exploring a unique viewpoint. Haynes explained, “Each song essentially is a different topic, however there is always a different perspective of death tied to each subject.” Allegaeon's Latest Album - 'The Ossuary Lens' Track Listing: 01. Refraction 02. Chaos Theory 03. Driftwood 04. Dies Irae 05. The Swarm 06. Carried By Delusion 07. Dark Matter Dynamics 08. Imperial 09. Wake Circling Above 10. Scythe Warfield - German Thrash Metal Titans Alongside the conversation with Greg Burgess, the Loaded Radio Podcast also features an interview with German thrash metal band Warfield. Their latest album, “With The Old Breed,” was released via Napalm Records and continues their tradition of relentless thrash metal inspired by bands like Slayer, Sodom, Kreator, and the Bay Area Thrash scene. Warfield, consisting of Johannes Clemens (Vocals & Bass), Matthias Clemens (Guitar), and Dominik Marx (Drums), is known for their aggressive approach to social and political themes, which they express through their brutal and fast-paced sound. Their most recent album follows their 2018 debut, “Wrecking Command,” which was released via Metal on Met

We all have vivid memories of our first rock concerts. You know the ones - when you're young, full of anticipation with no knowledge or understanding of the assault on your senses that a great rock show brings. These are the moments we capture on First Concert Memories and for episode 21, we have none other than Brian Slagel. Yes metalheads, THE Brian Slagel who founded Metal Blade Records more than 40 years ago. The first man to put a Metallica song on a commercially available tape. That's how we know Brian. But on this episode, he's taking us back to when he was a 16 year old KISS fan, hoping to get to see his heroes live for the first time. Thankfully, his neighbor Carl Graves (a performer and musician in his own right who would tour with Oingo Boingo in the 80s & 90s) told Brian's mother that he'd take him to the show and make sure he got home safe. So Brian saw his first ever concert - KISS on the Alive! Tour on February 24, 1976. A teenage Brian was blown away by the pyro, the fire and blood spitting demon, the loudness of the Marshall stacks and the spectacle that a KISS concert in 1976 offered. Brian also tells us about getting to know the original members of KISS on a personal basis, which band he's seen over 300x and his killer new podcast - The 100 Songs That Define Heavy Metal.

Interview by Kris PetersNew York trio SANHEDRIN released their long-awaited new full-length, Heat Lightning, last Friday via Metal Blade Records.SANHEDRIN has spent the last decade at the forefront of the American heavy metal scene blending traditional metal and hard rock sounds with a fresh modern energy and perspective. With 2022's critically lauded Lights On full-length, the band had created their most complete work to date. With their follow-up, Heat Lightning, the band delivers a diverse collection of songs that wholly captures their wide array of influences with an elevated level of production.“Sonically, there's no comparison,” notes drummer Nathan Honor when asked how Heat Lightning compares to the band's previous efforts. “Heat Lightning is the fullest representation of the power of this band. When you take three seasoned musicians with their favourite handpicked instruments, put them in front of two brilliant producer/engineers in a studio stacked with incredible equipment and no outside distractions, this is what you get.”Unlike the previous three albums, which were all tracked and mixed by ColinMarston, for Heat Lightning SANHEDRIN opted to work with a fresh set of ears in a new environment. In doing so, the band landed at the legendary Utopia Bearsville studio in Woodstock, New York. At the helm for recording and co-producing were Matt Brown (Life of Agony, A Pale Horse Named Death) and Jerry Farley (Sick Of It All, Madball).Heat Lightning gets its title from the second track of the same name. “Heat lightning is a flash of lightning from very far away, sometimes seen in a clear sky,” says vocalist/bassist Erica Stoltz. “It is used as a metaphor for where we see ourselves at the moment in relation to climate change. Collectively, we have moved further away from our direct relationship to nature and have adopted a paternal relationship with the natural world, as if we have control. It was one of the first songs written for the album, and one of the most dynamic tracks the band has ever written."Elsewhere, The Fight Of Your Life is a tribute to those we call “lifers” in the music business. “It's about the compulsion to play music no matter what. When you get the bug, and you have it for life, it is your north star, your reason to be,” says Stoltz. Franklin County Line is the fastest song on the record, and inspired guitarist Jeremy Sosville's hometown and surrounding area in northern New York state. Sosville recounts, “Erica and Nathan came up to visit me and work on new music. In the process, we wrote a song inspired by the local Amish population but with a naughty twist.”The record commences with Blind Wolf, a hard-rocking, heavy metal stomper and the record's lead single. Lyrically, the song is inspired by the band's shared fascination with cults. According to Stoltz, “The blind wolf symbolizes losing your animal instincts as a result of adopting someone else's belief system.” The song is straightforward, pounding, and delivered with ill intent. “We knew as soon as the song was complete that it should open the record,” says Sosville. “It really sets the tone for the journey the listener is about to take with this album.”HEAVY caught up with Sosville to find out more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Interview by Kris PetersKnoxville deathcore outfit Whitechapel have spent too long locked down allowing the creative juices to flow and are set to explode with the release of their ninth studio album Hymns In Dissonance via Metal Blade on March 7.While Hymns In Dissonance follows 2021's Kin chronologically, the new album is somewhat of a sequel to This Is Exile thematically, the three-word title Hymns In Dissonance representing that correlation. The band started composing the new album at guitarist Zach Householder's studio in June of 2023, following their headlining tour for The Valley. The collective stuck to a strict weekday schedule, the structure allowing for maximum creativity and minimum burnout. Householder also produced Hymns In Dissonance, which allowed the musicians to seamlessly switch gears from preproduction to recording the full album without skipping a beat.While it seems like a long wait for fans of the band, Hymns Of Dissonance is an ode to the past while taking strides into the future, promising to more than satisfy the musical hunger of long-term fans without alienating those picked up along the way.Vocalist Phil Bozeman joined HEAVY to fill us in."For fans that discovered us within the past couple of years, it will probably be a bit of a newer sound for them," he measured when asked about the sonic intensity of Hymns In Dissonance. "But for people who have followed us for longer than that - from the early days - it's gonna be… it's gonna be familiar territory for sure."We press Bozeman on that notion and ask if the album's musical direction is something the band sits and discusses in the creative process."Being in a band it's very…" he paused, searching for the right way to express himself. "Things come in waves. We're very inspired by a lot of different types of music, a lot of it being hard, death metal and stuff like that, but I think that we were all just having that itch to write something really heavy and extreme again. This is the 40-year-old version of us coming up with that instead of the young kid version, the 21-year-old version of it."In the full interview Phil further discusses the musical nature of Hymns In Dissonance, the writing process which involved working to a schedule, how he personally defines heaviness in music in the modern age, the decreasing universal focus on having to get a flow to your albums due to streaming and the current trend of singles over albums, the lyrical thread of the album and the central characters, road testing the music live and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Whitechapel's Ben Savage On The Loaded Radio Podcast TL;DR In this episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, Whitechapel guitarist Ben Savage discusses the band's highly anticipated new album, Hymns In Dissonance, set for release on March 7 via Metal Blade Records. He dives into the writing process, the band's heaviest breakdowns yet, his biggest influences, and what fans can expect from their upcoming North American tour. Listen to the full interview below! Whitechapel's Hymns In Dissonance: Their Most Brutal Album Yet? For over a decade, Whitechapel has been at the forefront of modern deathcore, delivering devastating riffs, punishing breakdowns, and unrelenting aggression. Now, with their ninth studio album, Hymns In Dissonance, the Knoxville-based metal titans are taking their sound to darker and heavier depths than ever before. According to guitarist Alex Wade, the album is designed to be “shockingly menacing and brutal.” With guttural lows, eerie atmospheres, and crushing riffage, Hymns In Dissonance is poised to be one of the heaviest releases of 2024. In this week's episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, we sit down with Ben Savage to break down the album's concept, the band's unique approach to songwriting, and what went into crafting this monstrous new record. The Concept Behind Hymns In Dissonance Unlike their previous album, Kin (2021), which explored deeply personal themes, Hymns In Dissonance is a concept album centered around a cult leader gathering followers to commit heinous acts in worship of their dark lord. Frontman Phil Bozeman describes the album's title as a direct contradiction: “Hymns are melodious and harmonious. Dissonance is the opposite. Dissonance represents evil. These tracks serve as hymns for the cult, each one symbolizing a deadly sin.” The record follows a 10-track journey that builds upon Whitechapel's legacy while introducing some of their lowest tunings and most intricate guitar work yet. Whitechapel's Heaviest Riffs Yet? One of the most exciting elements of Hymns In Dissonance is its brutal guitar work. In the interview, Ben Savage breaks down how Whitechapel pushed their sound further than ever before. One key highlight is the album's title track, which drops to Drop F tuning in its final breakdown—the lowest tuning Whitechapel has ever used. According to Wade, the shift in tuning helps create an “overwhelmingly crushing” finale that fans will undoubtedly feel in their bones. The album's lead single, “A Visceral Retch,” was the first taste of this new sound, immediately receiving high praise from fans for its sheer intensity. The Making of Hymns In Dissonance Unlike previous albums, the writing and recording process for Hymns In Dissonance was entirely in-house, with Zach Householder handling production duties. Having worked closely with producer Mark Lewis over the years, Householder was able to bring his deep understanding of Whitechapel's sound into the production process, ensuring maximum impact with every track. Savage also discusses how the band approached writing in a structured, weekday-only schedule, which allowed them to stay focused while avoiding burnout. Whitechapel's Hymns In Dissonance North American Tour With the album set to drop on March 7, Whitechapel is gearing up for a massive North American tour in support of Hymns In Dissonance. The month-long trek kicks off on March 18 in Raleigh, NC, and wraps up on April 19 in Atlanta, GA. They'll be joined by an absolutely stacked lineup, featuring: Brand of Sacrifice 200 Stab Wounds Alluvial With this kind of brutal tour package, fans can expect a nonstop assault of heavy music every single night. Tickets are available now, and if Whitechapel's past performances are anything to go by, this is not a show you'll want to miss. Listen to the Full Interview with Ben Savage We cover all of this and more in this week's Loaded Radio Podcast, where Ben Savage opens up about his biggest musical influences, his favorite records of all time, and what makes Hymns In Dissonance such a special album for Whitechapel.

Interview by Kris PetersRight before the turn of the century, casual jam sessions between a group of friends unassumingly lit the fuse for an insane 25-year ride to follow…Hailing from Western Massachusetts (where the only thing icier than the freeway in winter is the blunt sense of humour shared by the locals), Killswitch Engage — Adam Dutkiewicz [guitar], Joel Stroetzel [guitar], Mike D'Antonio [bass], Justin Foley [drums], and Jesse Leach [vocals] — always stood apart. For as deadly serious as their airtight technical riffing is, they also knew how to have a good time, riling up crowds with uncontainable energy and unpredictable performances. They could bludgeon with the best of them, or serve up the kind of sing-along banger you could blast with the windows down.From day one, they naturally appealed to the headbangers, hardcore kids, and heartbroken alike.With eight successful albums under their belt, Killswitch Engage haveharnessed all of their strengths on their ninth full-length LP, This Consequence. They've distilled the hallmarks of their signature sound into a bruising, often brutal, and at times brilliantly bright body of work. This time around, the group emphasized working together face-to-face in a Massachusetts rehearsal spot. The process enabled them to apply the pressure on every element. At the collective urging of his bandmates, Jesse poured over his words like never before.Now, This Consequence might just set the stage for another 25 years of Killswitch Engage.HEAVY caught up with frontman Jesse Leach to find out more."Excited," he smiled when we ask how he is feeling about the impending release of This Consequence. "It's been a long time coming for many reasons. There's a bit of excited anxiety, like let's just get it out there. Let's just get it out there and start playing for the people."We ask if, after eight previous albums, the excitement levels during the lead into an album release are still the same."It's a little different now," he measured. "It's still very exciting, but there's a certain amount of… I don't wanna use the word ease, but just comfort in the fact that we've done this enough. I think with this record, especially, we all feel like this feels like taking it to the next level. Even the decision to change the logo up… it just feels like a shift into a different era of the band. So there's an added excitement, but also a calm feeling that this feels right."In the full interview, Jesse outlines the musical side of This Consequence, the first single Forever Aligned and why it was chosen to represent the album, the title and its significance, how this album is more of a collaboration than recent efforts, the bands blending of harmonies with brutality and how it works in the creative process, the early days of Killswitch Engage and where they fit in, how their music has changed over the years and more.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

After unleashing their genre defining Doom EP, Arizona deathcore upstarts Job For A Cowboy inked a deal with legendary label Metal Blade Records.  Rather than simply replicate the formula that launched them, the band shed their early influences and took a bold step forward, crafting an intense brutal and conceptual piece of brutality for their debut full-length. While this shift left some longtime fans perplexed, it also began a legacy defined by progressive, technical, and politically charged albums that carried the band into the early 2010s. Join us in celebrating Job For A Cowboy's debut, Genesis.

It's a brutal week on The Loaded Radio Podcast as we welcome EYAL LEVI From DÅÅTH And Steve Buhl From 200 STAB WOUNDS Prepare to unleash your inner beast, metalheads, because this episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast is about to inject a double dose of death metal fury straight into your veins! We're pulling no punches today, diving deep into the twisted minds of two iconic figures in the genre: Eyal Levi, the mastermind behind the legendary DÅÅTH , and Steve Buhl, the ferocious vocalist and guitarist of the bone-pulverizing 200 STAB WOUNDS. First up, we'll be summoning Eyal Levi, the architect of DÅÅTH's punishing soundscapes. Buckle up, because after a monumental thirteen-year hiatus, DÅÅTH is back with a vengeance, unleashing their earth-shattering album "The Deceivers." This isn't just a comeback, it's a full-on sonic assault, and we're here to get the exclusive intel straight from the source. We'll delve into Eyal's creative process during this extended absence – was he lurking in the shadows, crafting these monstrous riffs, or did something entirely different consume his time? We'll find out, along with the inspiration behind "The Deceivers" and what fueled this explosive return to the death metal throne. But the carnage doesn't stop there! We're also throwing Steve Buhl, the frontman of 200 STAB WOUNDS, into the interview pit. Buckle up, because this band isn't known for subtlety. Their upcoming album, "Manual Manic Procedures," dropping June 28th on the legendary Metal Blade Records, promises to be a sonic sledgehammer to the skull. We'll be grilling Steve about the creative process behind this monstrous new release – where did these pulverizing riffs and gut-wrenching vocals come from? We'll also delve into Steve's musical influences. What bands fueled his passion for death metal? Did he draw inspiration from the classics like CANNIBAL CORPSE and MORBID ANGEL, or did he explore the more contemporary realms of the genre? And perhaps most importantly, how does a man who spends his days crafting such sonic assaults unwind? Does he pick up a soothing classical record, or perhaps take up a relaxing hobby like… crochet? (Spoiler alert: probably not.) This episode is a dream come true for any die-hard death metal fan. Whether you're a longtime devotee of DÅÅTH's technical prowess or a newcomer eager to discover the bone-crushing brutality of 200 STAB WOUNDS, we've got you covered. We'll be dissecting these new albums, uncovering the creative sparks behind them, and getting to know the minds that bring these sonic infernos to life. So, crank up the volume, metal maniacs, because you're in for a thrilling ride on this episode of The Loaded Radio Podcast, your authority on all things death metal, death metal bands, and heavy metal band interviews. This is your chance to get an exclusive look behind the curtain, a peek into the creative maelstrom that births these genre-defining albums. Prepare to be pummeled, enlightened, and entertained, all in one brutal listening experience.

This week we resume our retrospective of Night Demon's historic 2014 tour of North America opening for the mighty Raven. We take you through all the highs and lows of touring life as the band wound their way through Boise, ID; Salt Lake City, UT; St. Louis, MO; Columbus, OH; Kansas City; MO; Indianapolis, IN; Akron, OH; Toronto, Canada; and Chicago, IL.  For each show, there are recollections, anecdotes and sometimes even live audio clips, narratives from fans who were there, plus the contemporaneous blog accounts of Andrew Bansal. You will hear about shredded voices, Ohio love, karaoke adventures, and all the collateral damage of 15 consecutive shows. Listen at nightdemon.net/podcast or anywhere you listen to podcasts!

Hard to believe it's been a decade since Job For A Cowboy graced us with Sun Eater yet here we are on the eve of Moon Healer (Metal Blade) and we couldn't be more stoked for it if we tried. This band occupies a special spot for most of here on staff as they exemplify our varied tastes in death metal and all things extreme. With this album that statement couldn't be more true as it is wildly all over the map yet cohesive and heavy as lead at the same time. Ian screamed the loudest when the news dropped of a new album so it was the obvious choice to get him on with our podcast maestro Buke to discuss all things Job For A Cowboy with bassist Nick Schendzielos. The guys cover the obvious items but as per usual they cover a whole lot more so get comfy and settle in for a spell. Enjoy. 9C LINKS: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram

JOB FOR A COWBOY frontman Jonny Davy and EXIT EDEN co-vocalist Anna Brunner join us for this week's edition of The Loaded Radio Podcast This week on the Loaded Radio Podcast Scott Penfold sits down first with JOB FOR A COWBOY vocalist Jonny Davy to discuss the death metal outfit's latest album "Moon Healer". “Moon Healer” is set for release on February 23rd via Metal Blade Records. The release marks JOB FOR A COWBOY‘s first new full-length in a decade! “Moon Healer” is a vivid illustration of what happens when creativity, aggression, and volatility tangle for the first time in years. Like the band's critically adored, 2014-released “Sun Eater” offering, “Moon Healer” is musically multifaceted, unabashedly brutal, and compellingly conceptual. Featuring a newly refreshed and reinspired lineup of frontman and co-founder Jonny Davy, guitarists Tony Sannicandro and Al Glassman, bassist Nick Schendzielos, and drummer (since 2020) Navene Koperweis, the band seamlessly picks up the mantle where JOB FOR A COWBOY‘s “Sun Eater” left off. Compared to past offerings, “Moon Healer” is as bone-crushing as JOB FOR A COWBOY has ever been. But it's more consistent and conceptual, composed with the utmost enthusiasm and confidence. “The evolution of our sound has become a big part of the band,” Davy says. “As we mature as musicians, our tastes and interests naturally expand. With age comes more experience and ideas that we wouldn't have considered in our earlier years.” “Moon Healer” was produced by Jason Suecof (DEATH ANGEL, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, DEICIDE) at his Audiohammer Studios and is the first JOB FOR A COWBOY album to feature session drummer Navene Koperweis (ex-Animosity). Davy previously worked with Koperweis in the progressive death metal side project FLESHWROUGHT, which released Dementia/Dyslexia through Metal Blade in 2010. Koperweis also worked as a session drummer for MACHINE HEAD and WHITECHAPEL and is currently in the band ENTHEOS, whose third full-length came out on Metal Blade in March 2023. In the second portion of the podcast, Scott sits down with Anna Brunner from EXIT EDEN. Symphonic metal unit EXIT EDEN, consisting of Clémentine Delauney (VISIONS OF ATLANTIS), Anna Brunner (LEAGUE OF DISTORTION) and Marina La Torraca (PHANTOM ELITE) recently released their second album, “Femmes Fatales” via Napalm Records. “Femmes Fatales” includes 12 songs in total — half covers, half original compositions. EXIT EDEN‘s new release follows the band's debut, 2017's “Rhapsodies In Black”, which garnered millions of video views (12 million on EXIT EDEN‘s cover of Bonnie Tyler‘s “Total Eclipse Of The Heart” alone). Previous singles from “Femmes Fatales”, “Run!” (featuring ex-NIGHTWISH bassist/vocalist Marko Hietala) and “Separate Ways” (JOURNEY cover) have already surpassed a million views since their respective releases in October and December 2023. Now performing as a trio, EXIT EDEN‘s new full-length follows the path of its predecessor, as it contains six cover versions of famous cross-generational super-hits, but this time also shines by offering six original compositions. With one exception (“Dying In My Dreams”, co-written by Marina La Torraca),the remaining five original songs were brought to life by Brunner and Hannes Braun (KISSIN' DYNAMITE),who is also responsible for recording, production and mixing, whereas the album was mastered by Jacob Hansen (DELAIN, AMARANTHE, VOLBEAT, DESTRUCTION and many more). Self-confidently leading straight into the tempting world of EXIT EDEN, opening “Femme Fatale”, “Buried In The Past” and “Hold Back Your Fear” conjure a mystical atmosphere with strings and orchestral elements, topped by complementary vocals uniting the sonic diversity of the all-femme trio. “Dying In My Dreams” and album closing “Elysium” set the tone as captivating mid-tempo tracks with intense choruses that speak straight to the heart.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Asinhell over Zoom video!For more than 20 years, vocalist/guitarist Michael Poulsen has been spearheading Danish rock and roll machine Volbeat, releasing eight full-lengths, selling millions of albums, and filling stadiums worldwide. Before fronting Volbeat, however, Poulsen formed death metal band Dominus, which recorded four fast, brutal albums in the mid '90s. When Poulsen was putting together songs for Volbeat's 2021 album, Servant of the Mind, he wrote a bunch of death metal riffs and saved them on his phone. Then, when he was done with the Volbeat record, he reopened the rusty gates to Armageddon and started putting together songs for his new death metal band Asinhell, whose debut album Impii Hora (Latin for Ungodly Hour), is a tribute to Poulsen's favorite old-school groups. The songs are rooted in crushing riffs yet injected with strong guitar hooks and shout-along refrains.While Poulsen sings in Volbeat and sang for Dominus, he didn't want to front Asinhell. So, in March 2022, he called his old friend, ex-Morgoth singer Marc Grewe (Insidious Disease) and invited him to join the party. "I had known Michael quite a long time and he always mentioned that we should do a death metal project one day, but I never took him too seriously because he was so busy with Volbeat," Grewe says. "Then he called for real and said, 'Yeah, I want to do it now. Are you up for it?' Immediately, I was 'Yes, of course!'"After considering drummer friends from established bands, Poulsen asked Morten Toft Hansen from Danish group Raunchy to join. Not only does Morten play like a fiend possessed, his and Poulsen's six-year-old daughters are good friends… and, it takes just 10 minutes to drive to Morten's place.The two veteran musicians started practicing and completed a full song almost every time they got together. Grewe was tied up at home in Germany when it came time to write the vocals, so Poulsen sent the singer phone recordings from rehearsals to start the process. Through Poulsen and Toft Hansen's years of experience and renewed hunger to destroy, they captured a firestorm in a bottle.Asinhell went from being a mere idea to recording the piledriving full-length Impii Hora in about a year. Poulsen asked Volbeat's management to help find a home for Asinhell and was thrilled when they mentioned that Metal Blade founder Brian Slagel would love the band. As soon as he heard Impii Hora, Slagel made Asinhell a top priority. "It's such a dream come true for me to get to be on fucking Metal Blade Records," Poulsen exclaims. "When they said they wanted to put out the album, I felt like I was 17 years old again. I was like, 'Oh my God, I'm making a deal with Metal Blade! How cool is that?' It was like I was finally getting the record deal I dreamed of when I was a teenager."We want to hear from you!
