Death in a band is a struggle to overcome.For the UK’s Architects, the loss of guitarist and founding member Tom Searle was a massive blow to the group. Still, this band pushes on. It’s the opening track “Death is Not Defeat” on their eighth studio album, Holy Hell, that really sends the message that this is the start of the next – albeit unexpected – chapter in the band’s history. There’s a veil of anguish that’s hanging over Holy Hell and Architects have pulled out all stops in releasing what might be the most crucial album of their career.

There’s no introduction necessary. At the Gates are a band that have stood the test of time. Still as relevant as they were in the late 80’s and early 90’s, the resurrection of this band has been nothing short of a phoenix rising from the ashes. The band’s latest two albums, At War With Reality and To Drink from the Night Itself, have been critically acclaimed. Is it appropriate for them to opening for Behemoth? With how they carry themselves live, you’d have sworn it was a co-headliner.

Wolfheart are one of the best bands that North America doesn’t know about yet. There’s a chilling atmosphere to the Finnish band’s brand of melodic death metal that the scene doesn’t get to see that often and one that melo death would be much better off with more of rather than it being commercialized. Perhaps dissolving his other projects was the best decision he’s made, as founding member and visionary Tuomas Saukkonen has made Wolfheart into a force of nature, cathartic and emotional, yet brutal and more crushing than a glacier of ice falling on top of you.  

Philadelphia’s DEVIL MASTER have been spitting in the face of convention since forming in 2016 with their raw, twisted brand of death rock meets black metal punk mayhem.  

Yuma bred metalcore band SAMSARA has officially joined the roster of revered independent label Innerstrength Records, joining other rising acts like 156/Silence, Sunlight’s Bane and Machinist among others.
