With their self-titled full-length, RESTLESS SPIRIT have reached a point in their career where the band of friends from Long Island, New York knows exactly who they are and where they stand. As the eight tracks on "Restless Spirit" are the most distilled version of what the trio is about, they saw no need for further explanation in the title. So, what are RESTLESS SPIRIT about? Pure metal, no more, no less. Born from the steel mills of Birmingham this musical style has deep English working class roots that the East Coast outfit translates into an American sonic slang with elements from desert and stoner metal and even the occasional progressive flourish. As a result, they seamlessly merge classic heavy solos with roaring guitars and a pinch of psychedelic fuzz. In hindsight, the massive punch delivered to the gut delivered by their previous album, "Afterimage," set the trio onto a course that led directly to "Restless Spirit". Trimming away all sonic fat, focusing on the essentials, and refining their sound and songwriting down to it's heaviest core has yielded a record that promises to be timeless. RESTLESS SPIRIT are throwing out a rescue rope to all headbangers and particularly those dealing with all the cruelty that life can bring. "Restless Spirit" is a call to persevere in the face of others not understanding or even outright rejection. This album is about living on one's own terms, which was and is at the heart of metal.

The famous Ruhr Area, or the 'Pott' as it is called, was Germany's industrial heart that beat to the sound of steelworks and miners were risking their health and lives deep down in the eternal night of the coal seams. The Ruhr Area is also the place where Resurrected hail from, both mentally and physically, and it's history has served as an important part of the inspiration that is driving the brutal death veterans' eighth full-length "Perpetual". Ash, soot, and the ringing noise of steel hammers seem particularly fertile ground for metal - from BLACK SABBATH via JUDAS PRIEST to KREATOR and SODOM. On "Perpetual", Resurrected keep a steady course, which remains firmly on an old school death metal trajectory. This is completely befitting for a band that ranks among the earliest pioneers of the brutal style in their country. What makes the difference are the many years of experience, both in songwriting and on stage, which are reflected in the technical proficiency as well as the powerful and absolutely crushing tracks that are a tribute to their craft on this album. Resurrected spent a large part of 2025 channelling their decades of experience, talent, and unwavering passion for death metal into "Perpetual": Resurrected did not grow old, they got even better!

Born from the grips of the pandemic, Shine are the newest brainchild of Hazael's Tomasz Dobrzeniecki, and their first album Wrathcult leaves no doubt that a new force in Polish extreme metal has awakened. Inspired by the likes of Emperor, Bathory, Morbid Angel, Entombed and Dismember, Dobrzeniecki's new outfit channels that lineage into something raw, relentless, and unmistakably it's own. "'Shine' for me is a sheen of a sword's blade, the last thing that your foes see in their lives. You can also relate it to the Promethean light given to people that enlightens or sometimes blinds us. It can also be a glare of rage stemming from the resistance towards the unnatural rules forced upon us," explains Dobrzeniecki when asked about his new unit's name. "Our music is full of references to ancient rules and rituals and times when people lived in accordance with nature and cosmos using the primeval knowledge." Dark Descent Records will handle the release, having previously collaborated with Dobrzeniecki on the reissue of Hazael's classic opus. Wrathcult continues in similar thematic territory, invoking forgotten ancestral knowledge and tapping into primal forces, and mythic echoes of a pre-Christian world. "Lyrics for the album are mainly inspired by the pre-Christian spirituality and mythology of our forefathers and based on such books as Bestiariusz Slowianski, Mitologia Slowianska by J. Bobrowski and M. Wrona, and Slowianska Czarownica (Slavic Bestiary, Slavic Mythology, Slavic Witch). The lyrics pay homage to nature and higher powers in order to upkeep the memories of the beliefs that once shaped our heritage. We live on the borderline of three cultures that blend together in some way - Germanic, Norse and Slavic mythology have quite a lot in common." The album was recorded at Heinrich House Studio in Legionowo, Poland - a small city on the outskirts of Warsaw that holds an important place in metal history, being the hometown of Daray (Dimmu Borgir, Vesania), Orion (Behemoth, Vesania) and Heinrich (Vesania, Decapitated). "Me and producer Heinrich (Filip Halucha) have known each other for about 20 years. If you want to record a metal album that 100% meets your expectations, I think he's the only person that I trust." An uncompromising slab of ancient fury awaits! "See you in Valhalla! I've heard the parties there are worth dying for," exclaims Dobrzeniecki.

Brutal Planet Records exhumes one of the darkest corners of the Six Feet Under vault with the first fully distributed CD release of Unburied. These nine tracks-dragged from the recording sessions of Undead, Unborn, and Torment-were originally left behind in their raw early form. As Chris Barnes said: "I always felt like these tracks were excellent Six Feet Under material. Real raw and in their earliest form."Previously available only as a flimsy, low-quality cardboard-sleeve promo that barely surfaced in the collector world, Unburied has long been considered nearly impossible to obtain. This Brutal Planet Records edition finally gives these unearthed horrors a proper home in a jewel case with a 12-page lyric booklet, remastered by Rob Colwell and officially welcomed into the Metal Icon Series.

With "Quantifying Cosmic Doom", Soulburn renew the dark pact with their loyal following of delivering extreme and harsh metal that always pushes to new frontiers while staying true to it's core values of black, death, and doom. Built upon a solid foundation of death metal, "Quantifying Cosmic Doom" seamlessly adds walls of melancholy that are chiselled out of doom bedrock and crowns towering riffs with the fierce and spiritual flames of black metal. A wide range of musical variability as well as the masterful storytelling that runs like a golden thread through the epic songs give Soulburn away as experienced veterans who are utterly confident and passionate about their extreme craft. Soulburn rose from the ashes of ASPHYX in 1996, one of the times when the Dutch death metal pioneers fell apart before reuniting sooner or later. Their acclaimed debut album "Feeding on Angels" (1998) doubled up as a statement of musical intent as it contained a stripped down but deadly concoction of doom-laden black metal, which quickly established them as a devastating musical force. Behind the fifth Soulburn album, "Quantifying Cosmic Doom", lies a long journey that never followed a straightforward road but travelled through many dimensions and took hidden paths. Yet the Dutch metal extremists have undeniably reached a dark and beautiful peak.

The journey of Spirit Adrift has come full circle. With their sixth album in a decade, mastermind Nathan Garrett is ready to unleash the band's final chapter. Infinite Illumination, the Spirit Adrift swansong, is a return to the wellspring that first inspired it all and testament to a band that in the last ten years has crafted an impeccable signature thoroughly their own, molded from the elemental matter of more than a half century of heavy metal exaltation. Infinite Illumination has a directness to it, a sense of urgency and raw intensity. The songs feel inevitable, like they had to be driven out from deep within during a time of great upheaval. The fatalistic "Born in a Bad Way" summons a vengeful "broken relic from another age" that must "live again and make them pay" via Garrett's swaggering snarl, while "White Death" impugns "God shined on a chosen few, we must kill the rest of you". These songs have a palpable sense of malaise both spiritual and terrestrial, personal and universal, inflicted via crushing traditional doom riffs, thunderous mid-tempo marches and Garrett's impassioned vocal delivery. Long after the band is gone fans will continue to discover the Spirit Adrift catalog and witness the breadth of greatness they delivered in just a decade's time. Every melodic, epic and emotionally charged thread that defines the band's legacy honors the animating force behind pure creative ambition. And at it's core Infinite Illumination carries both the weight of conclusion and the troubling realization that it is rarely painless to say farewell.

Their new album, Lady Of Lust & Steel, delivers eight brand new songs that cover a considerable stylistic range, and Larissa Cavacece's raw voice, somewhere between Leather Leone and Wendy O. Williams, is once again Stainless's greatest trademarks.

Five years after the release of STORMKEEP’s highly acclaimed debut album "Tales of Othertime", the Coloradian quartet returns with the new single track "Carnal Tapestries of Nailtorn Flesh", offering a first glimpse into a new chapter of their singular mythos. Since their emergence with the underground mini-LP "Galdrum", STORMKEEP have cultivated a sound rooted in the grand tradition of symphonic black metal, shaped equally by medieval mysticism, fantastical storytelling, and an unmistakable sense of atmosphere.

For nearly 30 years, SUNN O))) - Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson - have pushed the boundaries of heavy music, straddling the worlds of the avant-garde and rock to forge a style instantly recognisable as their own. Now, SUNN O))) return with their first album of new material since 2019's acclaimed Pyroclasts. Their tenth album - their debut for Sub Pop - demonstrates the duo's mastery of time and space, light and dark, and their willingness to evolve their unmistakable sound into bold new forms.The eponymously titled SUNN O))) was tracked at Bear Creek Studios, Woodinville, Washington with Brad Wood (HuM, Tar, Sunny Day Real Estate, Liz Phair). This location proved crucial to the recording process. "The vast tracking room had big windows looking out on trees," says O'Malley. "We could go hiking and be out in the woods, spend time outdoors. That became a big part of it." SUNN O))) have long welcomed collaborators into their self-contained world: past work has featured, Attila Csihar (Mayhem), composer Hildur Gudnadóttir, multi-instrumentalist Steve Moore, polymath Mark Deutrom, Silkworm's Tim Midyett and legendary singer-songwriter Scott Walker. But on this album O'Malley and Anderson found fresh possibilities in the primal territory of the duo format, performing all the instrumentation themselves. "What's been happening with our performances over the last couple years with the two of us and no other collaborators has been really fresh and exciting," says Anderson. The compositions on SUNN O))) are expansive and panoramic yet finely detailed, reflecting the arboreal setting in which they were recorded. Amidst howling feedback and glacial crunch, one finds surprisingly delicate moments: a field recording of water trickles beneath, piano interludes lend a hushed, solemn feel. All while the duo attains fresh heights of telepathic intensity as they shape music that breathes the bracing, earthy air of the Pacific Northwest.Framing the album visually are two paintings by the late American artist Mark Rothko. Liner notes are by award-winning British writer Robert Macfarlane, famed for his works concerning landscape and the relationship between humanity and nature. Through the work of the band, Macfarlane, and Rothko, sound, word and visual combine into a fully immersive experience that is undeniably, completely SUNN O))).
