Bloodbound Debuts "The Nine Crusades" Lyric Video
Having ridden into their latest battle with their eleventh epic full-length "Field Of Swords," Swedish power metal warriors Bloodbound have released another video single from the album. "The Nine Crusades" is another historically themed anthem, retelling the titular events in typical Bloodbound style: a sweeping blend of melodic and heavy power metal. Joining their conquest is powerhouse vocalist Brittney Slayes of Canadian band Unleash The Archers, dueting with Patrik J. Selleby in a glorious mid-tempo anthem. Not only is “The Nine Crusades” the perfect album closer, but also a powerful herald of what’s to come.
Bloodbound are currently getting ready to share their new songs live. Starting March 12 in Hamburg, they will be on tour supporting label mates Angus McSix, with additional support from Brainstorm. Their run will take them to eleven cities, ending in Eindhoven on March 22. Following, Bloodbound will play European festivals, including mountainous Full Metal Mayrhofen, organized by Wacken Open Air, and Alcatraz Festival in Belgium. Find the full list of dates below!
Fredrik Bergh about "The Nine Crusades":
"The major part of this song was actually written by myself and Tomas back in 2018, and it was written especially for the band Sabaton! Joakim Brodén from Sabaton liked the rough demo and wanted to work further on this song together with us, but the collaboration never materialized. I have always felt it was a very strong track, so we decided to record the song ourselves for the new album instead. I am super proud of this song. I feel it’s one of the best songs I’ve ever been involved in writing! The song features the great Brittney Slayes from Unleash The Archers, who sings the song as a duet together with Patrik." More...
Ravaged By The The Yeti Signs With Testimony
Testimony Records has proudly announced that Ravaged By The Yeti have inked a multi-album deal with the label. We gladly welcome these international death metal maniacs to our roster! Ravaged By The Yeti will soon release their sophomore full-length via Testimony Records.
"We are very excited to have been signed by Testimony Records", Rogga Johansson declares on behalf of the band. "The label's work and roster speaks for itself, and we aim to become one of their most appreciated acts. Our new album is, simply put, a foul groove monster and we can hardly wait to have it released."
"We are thrilled to announce the signing of Ravaged by the Yeti", label manager Thomas Strater writes. "They embody old school death metal as much as it gets. Rogga Johansson and Jon Rudin have already performed in many bands, but by teaming up with American bass player Mike Borders they tie in with their shared past in US death legends Massacre. Get ready for more brutal, groovy neanderthal death metal action!"
Nervosa Releases New Video "Ghost Notes"
Metal heroines Nervosa has unleashed a new single from their upcoming album, "Slave Machine," out on April 3, 2026 via Napalm Records. "Ghost Notes" lets loose a storm of heavy, yet easily recognizable riffs, driven by impelling drums and the ever-so-furious vocals of Prika Amaral. Culminating in a powerful guitar solo, "Ghost Notes" shows yet another side of the versatile Brazilian thrash band. Once again working with producer Martin Furia of German legends Destruction for their upcoming release, the women bridge the gap between old-school power and critical modernity. Nervosa are ready for a fierce new era!
Nervosa about "Ghost Notes":
"Strong and heavy riffs with a lot of groove showing deep feelings in a very poetic way, this song is definitely special in many ways." More...
Bodysnatcher Shares "Violent Obsession" Video
South Florida deathcore mainstays Bodysnatcher have revealed their latest rager, "Violent Obsession" via MNRK Heavy.
The furious track is taken from the band's upcoming new album "Hell Is Here, Hell Is Home," due for release on Friday, 10th April. Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, guitarist Kyle Carter commented: "'Violent Obsession' to me expresses hate for a person to the extreme. It’s about revenge and what you wish you could do to this person who’s abused you, or taken advantage of you. It’s about obsessively living in that headspace of hatred and wanting them to feel how they made you feel."
The full-length will be the band's latest body of new music since 2024's acclaimed EP, "Vile Conduct." More...
