THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER‘s devastating new album, Abysmal, serves to once again demonstrate why they are considered one of the most vital bands in contemporary death metal. The blistering new effort debuted at #45 on the Billboard Top 200 Chart, as well as making very impressive debuts across the globe. See below for all first week charting specifics:
For the better part of two decades, LEVIATHAN has been at the forefront of American black metal with a constantly evolving approach but an unwavering dedication to a core of sheer negativity and darkness. Over the course of several full-lengths, sole member Wrest has continued to push boundaries within the genre but few were prepared for 2015’s Scar Sighted, possibly Wrest’s finest moment in a consistently challenging and surprising musical career.
New Jersey metallists Seven Witches are ready to assault your senses once again, with a fierce new album, ‘The Way of the Wicked.’ Comprised of singer Anthony Cross, guitarist Jack Frost, bassist Ronnie Parkes, and drummer Johnny Kelly, Seven Witches picks up exactly where their hard-hitting last album left off, 2013’s ‘Rebirth.’ And this is especially apparent in the album’s second video, “World Without Man.”
It has been three years since Cryptopsy‘s last release and many fans have expressed their eagerness to hear new material. This time, rather than a full album, the band will release a series of EPs entitled The Book of Suffering. This new approach will allow Cryptopsy to put out new music more often while remaining true to their standards of quality. The first EP in the series, The Book of Suffering Tome 1, was produced by Chris Donaldson at The Grid studio in Montreal, mixed by Jason Suecoff at Audiohammer Studio and mastered by Alan Douches at West West Side Music.
Industrial is like that cousin who writes ‘Literature’: full of bands that think they are creating something that will touch the soul, but are really just sticking things together with glue sticks. Know How To Carry A Whip by Corrections House addresses this. By throwing it into a cell and beating the shit out of it.
Sean Yseult, best known as the bass player from the multi-platinum and twice Grammy-nominated band White Zombie, presents her first solo show in New York City. RETROSPECTIVE – a love letter to her long-time muse, New Orleans – is a collaboration of early work from 2004, SEX & DEATH & ROCKNROLL (2012), MISSISSIPPI MERMAIDS (2013) and her current show, still on partial view at the Scott Edwards Gallery through October 2015, SOIRÉE D’EVOLUTION: TABLEAUX VIVANTS ET NATURE MORTES. We hope you’ll consider advancing this exhibition via feature or preview. Images of the artwork are available upon request.
