Johan Langquist - Heavy Metal and Doom Metal pioneer with JONAH QUIZZ and CANDLEMASS - has created his own solo-entity in form of JOHAN LANGQUIST THE CASTLE.

Johan has worked together with a wide range of well-known Swedish musicians and the debut album evokes the magic feeling of classic 70s/80s Heavy Metal/Hard Rock/Doom. It comes in the vein of BLACK SABBATH (Tony Martin-era), DIO (solo and with Sabbath), RAINBOW, SAVATAGE with a touch of Doom added for good measure.

I Hate Records proudly announces the physical versions of the self-titled album for June 27th 2025, coming on CD and LP. It was initially released digitally without a label in 2024.

JOHAN LANGQUIST THE CASTLE is not to be seen as a "studio project" - on the contrary a full line-up will soon take shape, and both live-shows and a second album are being worked on. Enter the castle of dreams!

Tracklist:
1. Eye Of Death
2. Castle Of My Dreams
3. Where Are The Heroes

TRIBUNAL - Sophomore Album "In Penitence and Ruin" via 20 Buck Spin - Full Stream available

Shortly before its official release on April 18th 2025, 20 Buck Spin has revealed a full stream of "In Penitence and Ruin, the searing new album of Gothic/Doom Metal act TRIBUNAL.

You can listen to the entire album in advance here: https://youtu.be/wVOTl8olZCc

TRIBUNAL’s sophomore album is an elegy most grievous and forlorn, descending deeper into the solemn abyss of woe. 2023’s debut "The Weight of Remembrance" set a high bar for the Canadians becoming one of the year’s most notable and praised Doom releases, leading Decibel Mag to include the band’s new album in their annual list of most anticipated releases.

Conjured by the band’s new form as a fully fleshed out five-piece, ‘In Penitence and Ruin’ has a wider lens of cohesion and maturity weaving together the widow’s wail of doleful strings, chilling keys and percussion that tolls like the iron bell of fate. These elements ornament the monolithic foundation of crushing dirge and funereal melodies hewn from the marrow of sorrow itself. A conceptual piece, the songs form a cycle that ruminates on justice and punishment, centering on a guilty Penitent who cannot escape what they have done.

Like ivy upon the tombstone, "In Penitence And Ruin" winds slowly but inexorably towards spectral grandeur and eternal oblivion.

Cover artwork by Soren Mourne.

Tracklist:
1. Incarnadine
2. A Wound Unhealing
3. Angel of Mercy
4. The Sword of the Slain
5. Ruin
6. The Penitent
7. Armoured in Shadow
8. …And the Thorn-Choked Flowers Grow
9. Between the Sea and Stars

BALMOG - Lyric Video Premiere - New Album "Laio" via War Anthem Records - May 2025

Galician Black Metallers BALMOG have unleashed the first single from their new album "Laio", coming on May 23rd 2025 via War Anthem Records on CD, LP and in digital versions.

Check out the lyric video for "Mud to Gold" here: https://youtu.be/YXr08eZVo9g

BALMOG's fifth full-length is by far their most ambitious and elaborate record to date. In "Laio" you can feel the beating of a heart spitting blood and a scream from the depths of BALMOG''s soul, the virginity and violence of the first albums with the personality and eclecticism of their later creative period.

Join this muscial path that wanders between Pink Floyd, Ved Buens Ende, Bathory and Mayhem!

"Laio" was recorded and mixed at Moontower Studios (Destroyer 666, Teitanblood, Graveyard) by Javier Félez and mastered at Orgone Studios (Hexvessel, Ulver, Paradise Lost) by Jaime Gómez Arellano. The artwork, cover and layout was created by frontman Balc.

LEPER COLONY - New Visualizer Video - Sophomore Album "Those Of The Morbid" out soon via Testimony Records

German/Swedish deathers LEPER COLONY have unleashed the final advance single from their second album "Those Of The Morbid", coming on May 2nd 2025 (**new date / re-scheduled due to production issues**) through Testimony Records on CD, LP and in digital versions.

Check out the visualizer video for "Those Of The Morbid Inclination" at this location: https://youtu.be/7sKLmU3Y7NY

Axe-master Rogga Johansson comments: "The first line of this song is 'Born in a casket garden'. I mean, come on, does it get more death metal than that? Mid-paced riff-happy heaviness with a massive groove, that's what it's all about here. And it's all topped off with some of the best vocals in the scene and finished with a heavy-ass, simple chorus that drives the point home like a mallet to the skull!"

To introduce the current members of LEPER COLONY to any self-respecting death metal connoisseur would be like carrying coals to Newcastle. Just in case, German vocalist Marc Crewe has long-established his name as the former frontman of MORGOTH, and later with INSIDIOUS DISEASE as well as with the band ASINHELL. Guitarist and bass player Rogga Johansson has left a massive mark on Swedish death metal in a host of bands including PAGANIZER, RIBSPREADER, and REVOLTING. WOMBBATH guitarist Håkan Stuvemark has taken over lead guitar and he was joined as a new member by British drummer Jon Rudin, who is well-known from MONSTROUS and DEAD SUN among several other death metal acts.

With "Those of the Morbid", LEPER COLONY give old school death metal fanatics exactly the brutal and uncompromising album that they have been waiting for.

INHUMAN CONDITION - New Album "Mind Trap" - European Release via High Roller Records - Details & Music Video revealed

High Roller Records proudly announces the European release of the third full-length album of Florida based Deathers INHUMAN CONDITION, entitled "Mind Trap", set for release on June 27th 2025 on CD, LP and MC.

Choosing the title of Massacre’s 1992 EP "Inhuman Condition" as the name of their new band after having left the death metal flagship in 2020, it is fair to say that Taylor Nordberg and Jeramie Kling have stuck to that well-established old-school sound for the last five years. However, INHUMAN CONDITION’s third full-length "Mind Trap" turns out to be more than Massacre 2.0, upping the ante on all fronts.

The fact that the original trio, which is completed by bass veteran Terry Butler (also a member of Massacre at various points in time), never sets any goals for themselves when working on new material has become a blessing: "We feel we have found our identity and finally moved past the link with Massacre," says Nordberg. "We didn’t rush any part of the writing, recording, mixing and so on. There’s an element of comfortability on this album, while still retaining that super hard edge."

The songs on "Mind Trap" are a "social commentary on the world we live in" according to the guitarist. "Some of my lyrics deal with the crushing grip of technology on our species. The album has it all – blood, guts, serial killers, sci-fi horror, shitty humans." Having produced the album entirely by themselves in their own studio, the result is nothing but outstanding. "Mind Trap" is graced with another striking cover art by Dan Goldsworthy (Accept, Alestorm) and attests to the special chemistry of the prolific duo behind INHUMAN CONDITION.

A video clip for the album’s opening track and first single "Severely Lifeless" is available here: https://youtu.be/Gd8xPardcVg

Tracklist:
1. Severely Lifeless
2. Face For Later
3. GodShip
4. The Betterment Plan
5. Mind - Tool - Weapon

Jeramie Kling - Vocals, Drums

TEASER SWEET - New Music Video - New Album "Night Stalker" via High Roller Records

Sweden's hardrockin' heavy metallers TEASER SWEET have revealed a new video clip for their fourth full-length album "Night Stalker", coming on April 25th 2025 via High Roller Records.

Check out "Turn Me on" here: https://youtu.be/S1DQqclnaQw

Consisting of vocalist Therese Damberg, her brother Marcus Damberg on guitar, Hampus Steenberg on bass and Kent Svensson behind the drums, TEASER SWEET have already made some waves in the Swedish metal scene. They originally started out in 2013 and after recording a demo, they took to the stage and eventually released three albums and an EP: "Hit And Run" (2015), "In The Night" (EP, 2017), "Hypnotized" (2018) and "Monster" (2020). For the new album "Night Stalker" the band has inked a deal with High Roller Records.

Apart from being influenced by the music of Judas Priest, Black Sabbath, Dio and even latter-day Europe, a song like “Deep in the Woods”, with its galloping bass work, owes a lot to Iron Maiden. Elsewhere, numbers such as "Cold is the Fire" and "Turn Me on" are also full of great hooks, making "Night Stalker" the band’s best album so far.

Switzerland's MALPHAS have revealed another track from their upcoming new album "Extinct", set for release on April 11th 2025 via Soulseller Records.

"Majestic Moon" is streaming here: https://youtu.be/9-dmQ9wKK54

MALPHAS have been working their way through the underground for several years now and with "Extinct" they are raising the stakes even further.

It is a fury hammer of Swedish inspired Black Metal, of ups and downs, of melancholy and chaos, ready to smash every listeners ears. This is the most versatile album of the band so far and expresses a general death-wish to all.

KARG - New Single "Annapurna" revealed - New Album "Marodeur" out soon via AOP Records

Austrian post/atmospheric black metallers KARG present another track from their upcoming new album "Marodeur", set for release on April 18th 2025 via AOP Records.

"Annapurna" feat. Klara // Firtan: https://youtu.be/1FV2SWtbv6k

KARG was founded back in the summer of 2006 as a one-man project. Between 2010 & 2014 KARG was fully formed as a band to play gigs, formally in Germany, Austria and Central Europe. In the years till 2018 KARG was, like in its beginning, held as a one-man project and released to more albums. With the release of the sixth studio album “Dornenvögel”, KARG did celebrate its rebirth as a live band for a few special dates in 2018 & 2019. They did their first real tour supporting their 7th album “Traktat” in February 2020. Since then, and during the years of the pandemic, KARG recorded the EP “Resilienz”, and the albums “Resignation” and “Marodeur”, the second to be released April 18th via AOP Records, the first album by KARG written as a collective. The band will play a short album release tour through Europe in the release week of “Marodeur” together with Harakiri For The Sky and Swiss Trio E-L-R. More dates will follow.

The musical style of KARG is a furious, hysteric mixture of Atmospheric Black Metal and a huge load of Post Rock, with influences also from Grunge, Shoegaze and Post Punk. The influences from other genres than Black Metal evolved more and more within the last few years but were there in abridged form since day one. Textual KARG always was about the more melancholic side of life, such as broken relationships, lost love, estrangement, drug abuse, loss or suicide thoughts and depression. In contrast to many other bands KARG’s lyrics are as equal important than there music and are written in the dialect written near the Tennen Mountains, where frontman Michael J.J. Kogler grew up.

Tracklist:
1. Schnee ist das Blut der Geister
2. Findling
3. Yūgen
4. Verbrannte Brücken
5. Annapurna
6. Reminiszenzen einer Jugend
7. Kimm
8. Anemoia
