ACOD - New Abum "Versets Noirs" via Hammerheart Records - Video Clip Premiere
 ACOD and are proud to present their cover version of Samael's "Black Trip", taken from the upcoming album "Versets Noirs" which will be out on April 26th via Hammerheart Records on CD, LP and digital!
"Black Trip" - Official Lyric Video / Samael cover: https://youtu.be/Nmt8S4pl27E
ACOD comments:
Fred: In 1994, Swiss band Samael released one of the most influential albums in the black metal world. The dark, hard-hitting opening track on this masterpiece takes us back to those glory years. We wanted to pay tribute to these architects of the black kingdom.
Jerome: "Ceremony of Opposites" had a significant impact on us, and the title fits perfectly with the theme of the occult journey you'll find in "Versets Noirs". It's interesting to do your own version of a track as important as the one you knew as a teenager. Many bands are content to cover most of the famous names, like Slayer etc... Our influences are broader, but mainly based on the period from the 80s to the 2000s.
"Versets Noirs" - Tracklist:
1. Habentis Maleficia
2. The Son of a God (The Heir of Divine Blood)
3. A Thousand Lives in a Second
4. May This World Burn
5. Black Trip (Samael cover)

ATRÆ BILIS - Sophomore Album Aumicide via 20 Buck Spin - Track Premiere
 20 Buck Spin proudly announces the sophomore full-length album of Vancouver's Technical Death Metallers ATRÆ BILIS, entitled "Aumicide", set for release on April 19th 2024.
Like all bands that meld metal’s numerous disparate incarnations, ATRÆ BILIS are not easily pigeonholed. Death Metal, atmospheric dissonance, tech brutality and much more are all thrown into the ATRÆ BILIS meat grinder coalescing beautifully and disturbingly into their own signature fusion like a perfectly functioning innovative machine.
Produced, engineered, mixed and mastered by Christian Donaldson of Cryptopsy, the massive production on "Aumicide" utterly pulverizes, elevating the Canadian power to uncharted extremities of deadly heaviness. This manifestation results in one of the most singularly ambitious underground releases of 2024, propelling the often backward-looking Death Metal genre unflinchingly into a far more terrifying future.
A first track, "Salted In Stygia", can be checked out at this location: https://youtu.be/yW-HpjTUE98
Cover Sculpture by Michael Perry and Angela Webber at Grayhouse Studios.
Tracklist:
01. Protoxenesis
02. Hell Simulation
03. Salted In Stygia

BEYREVRA - Debut Album "Echoes: Vanished Lore of Fire" out now via Trollzorn Records - New Video Clip
 German Melodic Death/Black Metallers BEYREVRA have revealed a video clip for the song "Burning Fate", taken from the band's debut album "Echoes: Vanished Lore of Fire" which is out now via Trollzorn Records.
Check it out here: https://youtu.be/k81EgHEHK2M
With diversified riff and melody structures and distinctive vocals, BEYREVRA have created an record with a somber and menacing tone. Hard blastbeat sections are alternating with decelerated and heavy riffs, and atmospheric guitar solos are following on energetic and complex melodies. Lyrically, they tell stories about the oppression of mankind by religion and the church, partly inspired by historic events.
Founded in 2018 in Nuremberg, BEYREVRA completed their line-up over the following years. After the recordings were completed in the Mordor Sounds Studio, renowned Endarker Studio took over the mixing and mastering and gave “Echoes: Vanished Lore of Fire” a unique and yet typically Swedish touch.
Cover artwork by Markus Graupner (Northem Arts).
Tracklist:
1. Sentenced
2. Path of Baptism
3. Burning Fate
4. New Aeon Rising
5. Erased
6. Fallen Son
7. Beheading the Truth >>> Video Clip
8. Barren Tales
9. The Hermit's Torment >>> Lyric Video
