Loudblast To Release First Album In Four Years
It’s been almost four decades since their very first demo, "Behind The Dark Mist." Yes, that long. And yes, 2025 will mark Loudblast's 40th birthday, with plenty of special events and surprises planned. But that will be next year.

Even if he voluntarily describes the material as "pretty old-school," Stéphane Buriez talks about "Altering Fates And Destinies" as a very personal album. "It’s a good synthesis of what we stand for in 2024. We don’t forget where we come from yet we didn’t set any boundaries and vowed to do whatever the fuck we wanted."
He continues: "'Altering Fates And Destinies' is a very dark album, powerful and more mid paced than its predecessors , it’s definitely one of our heaviest album so far in terms of patterns, sound and production wise."
A lyric video for the song "From Beyond II (The Return)" will be released on July 24. Watch a teaser below. More...

Lauded progressive death metal outfit Daath has emerged from its thirteen-year hiatus with a new album, "The Deceivers," set for release May 3rd via Metal Blade Records.
"The Deceivers" is at once a devastating reminder and giant leap forward that showcases the technical wizardry and brutal intensity that the Atlanta, Georgia-bred band is capable of. Band founder/guitarist Eyal Levi has overseen an overhaul of the lineup, though importantly Daath still features force-of-nature vocalist Sean Zatorsky, who has fronted the band since 2007. Together they are now joined by Kerim "Krimh" Lechner on drums, Jesse Zuretti on orchestration and guitar, Rafael Trujillo on lead guitar, and David Marvuglio on bass.

That‘s what "The Deceivers" is: Monstrously heavy but beautifully orchestrated, blessed with melodies that will haunt anybody fortunate enough to hear it. The nine tracks were produced by Levi, with Andrew Wade doing vocal production, John Douglass engineering, Jens Bogren mixing, and Tony Lindgren mastering. More...
