Over the last decade, Chicago quartet REZN have carved out a unique place in the landscape of heavy music, chiseling away at the crude formations of the topography, mining the most concentrated metallic ore from the dirt, and shaping it all into something monumental, imposing, and divine. While REZN has always fused seismic riffs with effortless beauty and grandeur, their shifting strategies for wielding that polarity have involved varied compositional and stylistic decisions, most notably the light-and-dark contrast of companion albums Solace (2023) and Burden (2024). But with their newest full-length offering, Cycles in the Infinite Dream, REZN masterfully harness the oppressive weight of their full sonic armory to celestial melodies and sublime synesthesia-inducing atmospherics in a manner so seamless it feels otherworldly, as if occupying a liminal space between two realities.While REZN traffic in the unbridled realms of metal and untethered reaches of psychedelia, their latest release showcases a band working with discipline and intention, even when those intentions are rendered to be purposefully cryptic. As the album title implies, Cycles in the Infinite Dream explores the nexus of our waking and nocturnal worlds. "We moved towards the dream and subconscious state as a lyrical concept and melodic theme," the band explains. "The pseudo-waking state is a reflection of a second existence-something that you can flee to or be imprisoned by." Much like the subconscious-guided work of David Lynch, Cycles in the Infinite Dream exists as parallax between the artist and the audience, creating an obscured and distorted space that is both familiar and alien, like a corridor into our past where we recognize our surroundings but somehow still feel lost within it's warped geometry.

The Ruins of Beverast were formed in early 2003 and named after the most bloodcurdling event of ancient Mid and Northeuropean eschatology - the collapse the Bifröst. This incident bears analogy to the musical aura of the band, which builds their sonic landscape on a downtuned ground. On their seventh full-length album, Tempelschlaf, their cinematic auditory nightmares reached a new level of psychedelia and insanity.

Each song has a thematic connection to various artifacts on the previous album (Mossbane Lantern), extrapolating the characteristics and aftereffects of those artifacts within this temperamental environment of a planet.

Savage Grace isn't just a speed metal band-they're part of the genre's foundation. Emerging from Los Angeles in the early '80s, the band played a crucial role in shaping the U.S. speed metal sound, pushing speed, aggression and precision at a time when the genre was still being defined.

Recorded between 1982 and 1984, these sessions capture the band in a raw developmental stage, already displaying the speed, structure and intensity that would later define their classic sound. While the 1982 recordings feature an earlier line-up, the 1984 demos were recorded by the same line-up responsible for the The Dominatress EP, offering a rare look into the band's creative origins and early studio identity.Curse The Night (82-84 Demos) has been fully remastered from the best audio sources available.

The annals of Belgian heavy music history are being rewritten with the first-ever CD release of "Pure Rock Intox," the definitive studio recording by Liège-based quintet SHOOT SHORTER. Formed in mid-1989, the group represented a powerful reunion of creative forces, led by guitarist Rudi Vandenbossche and vocalist Steve Shorter, both veteran members of the legendary Belgian metal outfit FN GUNS. While the project initially took shape on the local circuit as a high-energy cover act, the undeniable chemistry between the members soon pivoted the band toward a professional path of original composition and full-time dedication.By early 1992, following a series of commanding live performances in their hometown, SHOOT SHORTER entered the studio to capture their signature sound. The resulting album, "Pure Rock Intox," masterfully maintained the sonic architecture established during their tenure with FN GUNS, delivering a sophisticated blend of hard n' heavy music built upon straightforward, driving riffs and meticulously crafted vocal harmonies. Despite it's quality and the pedigree of it's members, the album was originally only available as a limited cassette release, leaving it as a coveted mystery for fans of the genre for over three decades.This CD edition will finally grant "Pure Rock Intox" the recognition it deserves, featuring eight original tracks that capture the energy and the musical roots of the band. Enhancing the listening experience, the physical edition includes a comprehensive booklet featuring complete lyrics, a detailed band biography, and a collection of rare, previously unseen archival photos. This release is an essential acquisition for collectors, as well as a definitive milestone in the history of Belgian heavy music.For fans of: FN GUNS, STEELOVER, SCORPIONS.

Following "Home" (2021) and "Elements" (2024), after racking up more than 100 million streams and touring the world with some of the biggest acts in the world including Korn, Corey Taylor and Dayseeker "dissolution" is the record Siamese did not plan to make but couldn't avoid. It stands as the band's most personal release to date. Written during a period marked by one of their main songwriters leaving the band, the album forced afundamental reassessment of both the process and the intentions. Siamese became more of a band, and less of a songwriting camp with "dissolution". The result is a sound that is heavier than anything Siamese have released before. More instinctive, more aggressive and a more introvert. At the center of "dissolution" lies a deeply complicated father - son relationship. The album represents the most comprehensive body of work Siamese have created. Along the way, the band collaborated with a close circle of trusted contributors, including Zachary Baker, Mads Zelasny, Zach Jones, KJ Strock, and Paul Spirou - each adding perspective without diluting the album's core identity.

When it comes to the importance of groundbreaking rock and metal acts, Canada has always been criminally underrated-forever doomed to be overshadowed by it's mighty neighbor to the south. Just think of Anvil, true originators of speed metal, or Rush, who have served as a blueprint for progressive metal for over five decades. Toronto's Slaughter also deserves a place on this list. Formed in 1984, the trio of Dave Hewson (vocals, guitar), Terry Sadler (vocals, bass), and Ron Summers (drums) recorded their debut album Strappado three years later, in 1987. Today, Strappado is hailed as a groundbreaking record of raw thrash metal, sowing the seeds for the first wave of true American death metal. Songs like the lightning-fast title track "Strappado," the almost punky "F.O.D. (Fuck of Death)," and the no-holds-barred "Nocturnal Hell" make this an absolute landmark release. Slaughter eventually broke up after becoming disillusioned with the workings of the music industry-a decision that speaks volumes about their integrity. Dave Hewson went on to form a new band called Strappado. In 1994, Slaughter briefly reunited to record a cover of Celtic Frost's "Dethroned Emperor" before disappearing once more.

Solace deliver their fifth studio album "Fading Failing Ruin" just in time to celebrate the anniversary of their 30th year as a band. And all the heaviness, experience, and obvious maturity of their songwriting across three decades is perfectly reflected in the seeming ease with which these master craftsmen hammer out one captivating and crushing track after the other. Revolving around apocalyptic, infernal, and end time themes that easily fit this day and age, "Fading Failing Ruin" nails the current global mood by taking a strong dose of inspiration from the earliest days of metal and blending it with contemporary heaviness. Solace have called their amalgamation of doom and heavy metal with hardcore elements dirt metal, while elsewhere it has been somewhat tongue-in-cheekily dubbed shorecore. Others file the New Jersey five-piece under stoner metal - and in truth, all these descriptions have and still fit the band to an extent. With "Fading Failing Ruin", Solace erect a new milestone of US heavy metal that respects traditions from both sides of the Atlantic while churning toward a chaotic future. Time to bang those heads!

With their ever-mutating brand of jazz- and country-laced punk, Opus Kink have always cut a singular figure in a saturated landscape. Making their name with incendiary, cult-like live shows, the band has developed a sound as elusive as it is recognizable. Underscored by a formidable horn section and a ragged, sardonic delivery, the group bears a passing resemblance to post-punk and no-wave acts such as The Pop Group, The Birthday Party, and the Lounge Lizards. However, it is their weaving of older, more traditional influences-choral, folk, country, Latin, Weimar cabaret, and cruise-ship crooning-into the fabric of their music that truly sets them apart. Their highly anticipated debut album, The Sweet Goodbye, follows a series of EPs and singles that have earned acclaim from NME, DORK, DIY, CLASH, So Young, BBC Radio 1, and playlisting on BBC Radio 6 Music. The album was produced by Grammy Award-winning producer and mixer Craig Silvey (Arcade Fire, Florence & The Machine, R.E.M.) and features a guest appearance by The New Eves, whose 2025 debut album reached No. 1 on the UK's Official Independent Albums Chart.
