FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MOTHERTOMB Unleash Crushing Debut Album Dying to Live Out Now! Northern Michigan Doom Collective Deliver a Monumental First Statement of Darkness, Transformation, and Occult Atmosphere Listen now: Spotify / Streaming:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/mothertomb/dying-to-live Bandcamp:https://mothertomb.bandcamp.com/album/dying-to-live Emerging from the frozen forests of Northern Michigan, Mothertomb have officially released their highly anticipated debut full-length album, Dying to Live, available now on all major streaming platforms and Bandcamp. Blending the crushing weight of traditional doom metal with hypnotic stoner grooves, heavy psych textures, gothic atmosphere, sludge, and progressive songwriting, the independent quartet delivers an emotionally devastating debut that firmly establishes them as one of the underground's most compelling new voices. For fans of Black Sabbath, Windhand, Pentagram, Candlemass, Solitude Aeturnus, and Acid King, Dying to Live unfolds across five expansive compositions exploring suffering, transformation, transcendence, and the eternal struggle between darkness and light. Inspired by Welsh folklore and the shadowed depths of the human psyche, the album guides listeners through allegorical landscapes inhabited by ancient spirits, inner demons, and the unseen forces shaping the human condition. The band's name itself emerged from tragedy. During Northern Michigan's historic ice storm of April 2025, more than 145,000 residents were left without power for weeks in below-freezing temperatures. As the members witnessed forests entombed in thick ice, both breathtakingly beautiful and devastatingly destructive, they found inspiration in what felt like Mother Nature's own tomb. That striking contrast became the foundation for Mothertomb, perfectly reflecting the emotional and sonic duality found throughout the band's music. Created entirely as an independent DIY effort, Dying to Live was written, recorded, produced, and artistically directed by the band. Recorded at Death Box Records in Charlevoix, Michigan, the album was produced by Alton Minor alongside the band, with mixing and mastering also handled by Minor. The haunting artwork was illustrated and designed by vocalist Alice Gawlinski, completing a project that embodies Mothertomb's uncompromising artistic vision. Speaking about the release, the band states: "Dying to Live explores themes of transformation, suffering, transcendence, and the timeless struggle between darkness and light. Through metaphor, allegory, and introspection, the album invites listeners into a world where darkness and illumination coexist. From crushing heaviness to moments of eerie beauty, this record is a journey through the depths of the human experience. Created entirely as an independent DIY effort, Dying to Live stands as a true labor of love, and we're honored to finally share it with the world." Even before its release, Mothertomb had already generated significant buzz throughout the underground metal community with the singles "Beware" and "Mountain Hag." Steve Howe of Outlaws of the Sun praised "Beware" as: "An intriguing and superbly executed proposition from MOTHERTOMB which has me excited to hear more from their upcoming debut album in 2026. Excellent and Highly Recommended." Michael D'Amato of Playgroundz Rocks described the single as: "Dark, immersive, and heavy as hell... a statement. By the end, you're left wanting more, and you know whatever comes next is going to hit just as hard." Spanish publication La Habitación 235 declared: "One of the bands that could emerge as a new revelation in the coming years." Following the release of "Mountain Hag," Outlaws of the Sun doubled down on their praise: "Nothing short of a revelation with Mothertomb continuing their progression in perhaps becoming one of the best upcoming acts the underground scene currently needs right now." The band has also earned support from respected underground outlets including Doomed Nation, Progressive Rock Journal, Weedian, Stoner World Blog, Female Fronted Power, Monuments in Ruin, La Capsule Stoner, TRAIL of SMOKE, Hour of the Riff, and Sunday's Heavy Tunes, further cementing Mothertomb as one of doom metal's fastest-rising acts. With Dying to Live now available worldwide, Mothertomb invite listeners to immerse themselves in a deeply atmospheric and emotionally resonant debut that balances crushing heaviness with haunting beauty, proving that even in the darkest places, transformation can be found.

The track captures the intensity of the band’s legendary live performances, channeling the energy of packed arenas and the unmistakable electricity that happens when Nickelback take the stage. “This album has every side of the band on it,” says frontman Chad Kroeger. “There are songs that hit as hard as anything we've ever done, songs that take chances, and songs that remind us why we've been doing this together for so long. ‘Rattle The Cage’ felt like the perfect way to kick the door open.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Bay Area Thrash Force Frolic Unleash Legacies of Cybernetica as Banger TV Spotlights Album in Metal Monthly Technical melodic thrash outfit Frolic continue to push the evolution of the legendary Bay Area sound with their explosive new album, Legacies of Cybernetica, out now via Hectic Records. Stream & Purchase: https://frolicbayarea.bandcamp.com/album/legacies-of-cybernetica California's rising progressive thrash metal powerhouse Frolic officially released their highly anticipated sophomore album, Legacies of Cybernetica, on July 3, 2026, delivering one of the year's most ambitious and technically impressive modern thrash records. Released on vinyl through Hectic Records, the album is also available independently on CD, cassette, digital platforms, and select streaming services. Blending razor-sharp musicianship with futuristic themes and relentless aggression, Legacies of Cybernetica expands upon the classic Bay Area thrash blueprint while forging a sound that is unmistakably Frolic. Fans of Kreator, Exodus, Revocation, and The Black Dahlia Murder will find plenty to sink their teeth into, from blistering riff work and soaring twin guitar leads to intricate rhythm changes and crushing, high-energy performances. Adding to the momentum surrounding the release, Legacies of Cybernetica was recently featured on Banger Films' Metal Monthly, where host Blaine Smith praised the album as one of July's standout metal releases. During the segment, Smith highlighted the band's remarkable artistic growth, calling attention to "a big upgrade to the cover art and a big upgrade to the band." He also praised Frolic for carving out a unique space within the thrash landscape, describing the group as filling "a hole that isn't really filled" by blending the intensity of German thrash with the technical precision and sci-fi atmosphere of the Bay Area scene. The review also applauded the band's explosive songwriting, emphasizing songs that hit listeners immediately with relentless speed and aggression while showcasing originality rarely heard in today's thrash movement. Smith concluded that Frolic is "doing something fairly original" and performing well above expectations, further cementing the band's growing reputation within the global metal community. Formed in the San Francisco Bay Area, Frolic stands as proof that the birthplace of thrash metal continues to produce innovative new voices. Rather than simply recreating the sounds of the 1980s, the band embraces evolution by combining technical death metal precision, progressive arrangements, blackened vocal intensity, and unforgettable melodic guitar work. Frontman and guitarist Edgar delivers a fierce vocal performance that recalls the venomous edge of classic European thrash while sharing lead guitar duties with Lenny, whose dynamic twin-guitar attack provides soaring solos and memorable hooks throughout the record. The rhythm section is equally formidable, with Zak bringing highly technical, death metal-inspired bass lines and Elijah combining jazz and funk influences into powerful drumming built for maximum mosh pit destruction. Produced by Ivan Garcia, Ben Bennett, and Andrew Peacock, Legacies of Cybernetica captures the band's explosive live energy while showcasing a level of songwriting and musicianship that marks a major step forward in Frolic's evolution. With critical praise already arriving from respected outlets like Banger TV and an ever-growing reputation throughout the Bay Area underground, Frolic are poised to become one of the most exciting names carrying thrash metal into its next generation.
