He goes on to say, “I came away feeling he was a really good guy and in the music industry for the RIGHT reasons and I felt like I could trust him, which is rare for me in this business. That inspired me to take a chance on someone that is on a path that I feel will be successful. Marco has a lot of passion for music and I am hopeful we can both find greater heights through this venture. White Wizzard has been through a lot of adversity and this album means a lot for many different reasons and it's something we are all very proud of. With Wyatt ‘Screaming Demon’ Anderson and James J.

Wildspeaker Posts "Cinders"

Dallas-based blackened crust band Wildspeaker will release upcoming album, "Spreading Adder," on June 23rd via Prosthetic Records. The blistering 11 track album offers a non-stop grind of driving riffs and thick, weighty atmosphere.

Thematically and lyrically, "Spreading Adder" focuses on the resilience of nature and downfall of human civilization. Check out new track "Cinders" below.

Vocalist Natalie Kahan says, "'Cinders' is about the anxiety and unease of changing states. Ultimately, we are still able to burn after the chaos around us cools. The song starts out pummeling fast then becomes punishing and slow. There are a lot of dark layers and tension to 'Cinders' that'll make you clench your teeth."

Wildspeaker consists of Kahan, guitarists Nelson Favela and Zak Pitts, bassist Garry Brents (Cara Neir), and drummer Ricky Rivera. Self-produced in Brents' home studio, Spreading Adder will be released on LP, CD and all digital formats. Pre-orders are online here. More...

Exmordium Releasing "Into The Sepulchral Spectrum"

Tridroid Records is pleased to announce that "Into the Sepulchral Spectrum" by Exmordium will be the first album to be released as part of the Tridroid Lost Releases series.

In the spring of 2016, Tridroid Records changed ownership from Andrew Rehberger to Christine Kelly. Because of the changeover and Andrew’s tragic death soon after, a few releases were buried in the shuffle and remained unknown. After organizing the back catalog, Christine uncovered them. Her goal is to give them the recognition that they didn’t have before and to dedicate them to Andrew’s memory.

Tridroid Lost Releases will donate all proceeds to an organization close to Andrew’s heart, the Saint Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Exmordium’s Evan French and Evan Page came together at the end of 2011, melding furious black metal atmosphere with melodic instrumentation and classical guitar. In 2012, the duo recorded the "Disembodied Souls," "Monolith of Dread," and "Prophets of Doom" demos, the last of which featured Jacob Yelle. "Apocryphal Deities of Ageless Stone" was unleashed in 2013, the last of the recordings featuring Yelle. More...
