FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NARCOTIC WASTELAND Announces the “Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse Tour” Featuring Visitant, with Monochromatic Black, IATT and Yotuma on Select Dates NARCOTIC WASTELAND will head out this August on the “Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse Tour,” joined by VISITANT on the main run, with Monochromatic Black, IATT and Yotuma appearing on select dates. Led by Dallas Toler-Wade, best known for his 20-year run as guitarist/vocalist in Nile, Narcotic Wasteland brings a veteran death metal presence to the road while continuing to push its own message and identity. Toler-Wade remains one of the most recognized former members connected to Nile’s long history, and with Narcotic Wasteland he channels that experience into a darker, more direct attack. The tour launches August 10 in Pensacola, FL with Visitant and continues through the Midwest, Northeast and Southeast before wrapping August 30 in Charleston, WV. Along the way, Narcotic Wasteland and Visitant will also make separate appearances at Michigan Metal Fest in Battle Creek, MI. Known for an uncompromising blend of extreme metal intensity and socially conscious lyrical themes, Narcotic Wasteland confronts addiction, collapse and cultural decay through a punishing live show. The “Fentanyl Zombie Apocalypse Tour” brings that message directly to fans across the country, with a strong lineup of heavy and extreme acts joining throughout the run.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THE SPECTRE BENEATH RETURN WITH NEW ALBUM THE DEVIL’S WHISPER UK Power/Progressive Metal Force Expands Its Cinematic Universe on New Full-Length Release Out July 17, 2026 The UK based power/progressive metal band The Spectre Beneath returns with their newest studio album The Devil’s Whisper, set for release on July 17, 2026. Blending razor sharp musicianship, cinematic storytelling, and emotionally charged vocals, the band continues to push a sound shaped by classic influence and modern ambition. Drawing inspiration from giants like Megadeth, Savatage, Queensrÿche, and the theatrical edge of Iron Maiden, The Spectre Beneath fuse progressive complexity with melodic weight and narrative depth. A BAND SHAPED BY EVOLUTION AND ENDURANCE The Spectre Beneath began in 2018 when guitarist Pete Worrall and longtime collaborator Katy Lennon began developing material that leaned more melodic and cinematic than their previous work in Plague and the Decay. What started as a side idea quickly evolved into a full creative identity. With drummer Consta Taylor joining the fold and vocalist L.L bringing a unique, nontraditional phrasing style, the band released The Downfall of Judith King in 2019, followed by The New Identity of Sidney Stone in 2020, later reissued via WormHoleDeath Records. Both releases earned critical praise for their ambitious storytelling and genre fusion. After L.L stepped away in 2021 due to health reasons, the band faced uncertainty but continued forward, later recruiting vocalist Nicole Garza for 2023’s The Ashen Child. By 2024, lineup changes once again left the future unclear until a renewed creative spark arrived in early 2026, reigniting the project. THE DEVIL’S WHISPER EXPANDS THE STORY The Devil’s Whisper connects directly to earlier chapters in the band’s narrative, continuing themes introduced in The Downfall of Judith King and The Ashen Child. Tracks like “The Devil’s Whisper” and “Forgiveness” carry forward the unfolding saga, while other songs explore cinematic influences including Hammer Horror inspired storytelling with “Sister Hyde” and “The Man Who Could Cheat Death.” The band also nods to television drama influence with the melancholic “White Tulip,” adding emotional depth to an already expansive record. Across the album, The Spectre Beneath refine their signature blend of soaring vocals, intricate guitar work, and dramatic progressive arrangements that balance melody with intensity. QUOTE FROM THE BAND “The past gets in touch with The Spectre Beneath and they return after 3 years with their new album, The Devil’s Whisper.” ALBUM DETAILS Genre: Power / Progressive MetalLabel: IndependentProduced and Engineered by The Spectre BeneathMixed and Mastered by Juho Kilponen, Kilproduction Audio FOR FANS OF Megadeth, Savatage, Queensrÿche PRE-ORDER AND PRESAVE Bandcamp Pre-Order https://thespectrebeneath.bandcamp.com/album/the-devils-whisper Presave / Hyperfollow https://www.submithub.com/link/the-spectre-beneath With The Devil’s Whisper, The Spectre Beneath continue carving their own lane, blending tradition with forward motion and proving the story is far from over.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SCREAM MAGAZINE (NORWAY) FEATURES MULTIPLE METAL DEVASTATION PR CLIENTS IN LATEST ISSUE A strong showing in the newest issue of Norway’s legendary heavy music publication brings international attention to several Metal Devastation PR roster artists, with reviews spanning melodic symphonic metal, groove and thrash, black metal influence, and experimental heaviness. The coverage highlights releases from Element of Fate, Creeper, Thy Sanatorium, and Eternal Drak, all featured in the latest edition of Scream Magazine. ELEMENT OF FATE – “Dreamfall” Self-financed melodic symphonic heavy metal release from American duo Carol Phillips and Scott Loose earns a detailed spotlight. Reviewer Stig Bøgeaard notes the album’s atmosphere, drama, and stylistic range across its seven tracks, pointing out standout moments like “Shadow Self” and the title track’s Type O Negative vibe. Key highlights from the review include praise for the album’s atmosphere and composition variety, with comparisons to Amorphis, King Diamond, Nightwish, and early Iron Maiden influences appearing throughout the coverage. The review closes on a positive note, stating the album delivers a solid, atmospheric experience with a charismatic vocal presence. CREEPER – “Crushing” The second full-length from Creeper receives a more critical response in the No Life Til Metal segment. Per Aage Melby describes the groove and thrash influenced effort as uneven, noting a lack of punch and consistency across the release, while still acknowledging the band’s effort in pushing heaviness within the style. THY SANATORIUM – “Thy Sanatorium” A masked black metal project draws attention for its melodic and symphonic approach, tight production, and strong guitar work. Frank Bøkseth highlights the guitar performance and vocal mix, while also noting the band’s influences in the Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth sphere. The review suggests potential, while pointing out the band is still developing its own identity within the genre. ETERNAL DRAK – “The Violence Of Time” Canadian act Eternal Drak receives the most direct critique in the issue, with reviewer Per Aage Melby delivering a harsh assessment of the album’s energy and impact. The review describes the release as lacking punch and inspiration, with concerns about the overall production feel and performance energy, while also noting vocal delivery as overly strained. ABOUT THE FEATURE This latest coverage in Scream Magazine continues the publication’s long-standing tradition of spotlighting underground and international metal releases across multiple subgenres, giving readers a raw cross-section of the global heavy music scene. For Metal Devastation PR, the feature marks another wave of international press visibility for its roster, reinforcing the global reach of independent heavy music promotion. Less

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MOTHERTOMB ANNOUNCE DEBUT ALBUM DYING TO LIVE OUT JULY 14 Northern Michigan Doom Collective Unleash a Crushing Journey Through Darkness, Transformation, and Occult Atmosphere Stream and pre-order: https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/mothertomb/dying-to-live https://mothertomb.bandcamp.com/album/dying-to-live Emerging from the frozen forests of Northern Michigan, Mothertomb are preparing to unveil their debut full-length album, Dying to Live, arriving July 14, 2026. Blending the crushing weight of traditional doom metal with the hypnotic textures of stoner rock, heavy psych, gothic atmosphere, sludge, and progressive songwriting, the independent quartet delivers a powerful first statement that is as emotionally haunting as it is sonically devastating. For fans of Black Sabbath, Windhand, Pentagram, Candlemass, Solitude Aeturnus, and Acid King, Dying to Live presents five expansive compositions exploring themes of 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 journeys through allegorical landscapes populated by ancient spirits, inner demons, and the unseen forces that shape the human condition. The band's name itself was born from tragedy. During Northern Michigan's historic ice storm of April 2025, widespread devastation left more than 145,000 residents without power for weeks in below-freezing temperatures. Witnessing the forests encased in thick ice, simultaneously breathtaking and catastrophic, the members found themselves staring into what felt like Mother Nature's own tomb. That surreal duality of beauty and destruction became the inspiration for the name Mothertomb, perfectly reflecting the emotional and sonic contrasts that define their music. "Set for release on July 14, 2026, Dying to Live is Mothertomb's debut full-length album. Across its five tracks, the record explores themes of transformation, suffering, transcendence, and the timeless struggle between darkness and light. Drawing inspiration from Welsh folklore and the shadowed corners of the human psyche, the songs traverse landscapes inhabited by ancient spirits, inner demons, and the forces that shape the human condition. The album unfolds through layers of metaphor, allegory, and introspection, inviting listeners into a world where darkness and illumination coexist. From brutal heaviness to moments of eerie beauty, Dying to Live is a journey through the depths of the human experience. Created entirely as an independent DIY effort, the album was written, recorded, produced, and artistically directed by the band itself. Dying to Live stands as a testament to that labor of love, and we are honored to share it with the world." Long before the album's release, Mothertomb began earning widespread praise throughout the underground metal community with the singles "Beware" and "Mountain Hag." Steve Howe of Outlaws of the Sun described "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 called the single: "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 praised the band's occult atmosphere, writing: "One of the bands that could emerge as a new revelation in the coming years." The follow-up single "Mountain Hag" continued the momentum, with Outlaws of the Sun calling it: "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's music has also received 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, establishing Mothertomb as one of doom metal's most promising new voices. Recorded at Death Box Records in Charlevoix, Michigan, Dying to Live was produced by Alton Minor alongside the band, with mixing and mastering handled by Minor. Every aspect of the project reflects the group's fiercely independent DIY philosophy, from the songwriting and production to the striking artwork illustrated and designed by vocalist Alice Gawlinski.

(Photo by: Hannah Wheeler/Canis Panthera Photography) Temple Witch is emerging as one of the most compelling voices in the growing Northeast Ohio doom metal movement — a scene shaped as much by bleak industrial landscapes and punishing winters as by the music itself. In an era where metal continues to splinter and evolve into increasingly diverse forms, the band embraces the heavier, fuzz-drenched edges of the genre, crafting songs that feel both colossal and deeply human. Blending the raw urgency of 1980s and 1990s underground punk with the crushing weight of modern stoner rock and doom metal, Temple Witch has carved out a sound that feels distinct within their regional scene. Their music balances towering riffs with emotional honesty, creating immersive songs that unfold like journeys through isolation, struggle, and catharsis.That emotional depth is front and center in the band’s recent video releases, “Wraith” and “Earthen Jug,” both of which have generated growing attention around the group. “Wraith,” a hybrid of animation and live action, explores themes of loneliness through haunting imagery and atmosphere. “Earthen Jug,” meanwhile, confronts mental illness with stark realism, continuing the band’s commitment to unfiltered expression and vulnerable storytelling.   [jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="NPSi-AdiyeM"] [jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="YSODGMSeggo"] Momentum around Temple Witch continues to build heading into 2026. The coming months will see the band taking part in multiple festivals, out-of-state runs, interviews, and radio appearances, all while preparing a wave of new material.Among the most anticipated developments is the band’s forthcoming full-length album. In October 2025, Temple Witch traveled to Pittsburgh to record at The Vault with Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Hillis. Known for his work with legendary acts including Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam, and Temple of the Dog, Hillis helped the band capture the record in an intense three-day session. Anticipation surrounding the release continues to grow as fans await what may be the band’s defining statement to date.At its core, Temple Witch remains driven by a simple philosophy: to express honestly what they feel and observe through music. While their influences stretch across decades of heavy music, the band sees emotional experience — not genre conventions — as the true force shaping their sound. Through that authenticity, Temple Witch hopes to create genuine human connection and contribute something real to the ever-expanding world of heavy music.For Temple Witch, this is more than a moment. It is the beginning of something larger, and they are inviting listeners to be part of it.

The music video made its exclusive premiere via ThePRP on June 26, introducing fans to the project's latest all-star collaboration before the single became available across all major streaming platforms. Originally released as the lead single from Cheap Trick's landmark 1988 album Lap of Luxury, "The Flame" became the band's first No. 1 hit and remains one of the most recognizable power ballads in rock history. Written by Bob Mitchell and Nick Graham, the song has endured for nearly four decades through its soaring melodies and heartfelt emotion. Covert Stations honors that legacy while injecting the classic with renewed energy, modern production, and the unmistakable chemistry of some of the underground music scene's most accomplished musicians. The current lineup behind Covert Stations' rendition of "The Flame" features vocalist Craig Cirinelli (Hidden Cabins, (Damn) This Desert Air, The Atlantic Union Project), guitarist Matt Baumbach (Vision of Disorder, M@), drummer Brian Leahy (Eyeswan, Hidden Cabins), bassist Mark Wilkinson (The Evening Sons, Rydell, The Atlantic Union Project), and keyboardist, engineer, and producer Chris Badami (I Can Make a Mess). Recorded during the first months of 2026, the project embodies the collaborative spirit that has become synonymous with Covert Stations. Each musician tracked their parts independently from locations spanning Northern New Jersey, Long Island, New York, and Brighton, England before the recordings were brought together at Portrait Recording Studios in Pompton Plains, New Jersey, where Chris Badami mixed the song into a seamless and emotionally charged performance. Founded by Craig Cirinelli, Covert Stations has built a reputation for pairing ever-changing lineups of respected underground musicians with iconic songs from rock history. Rather than simply recreating familiar classics, the project reimagines them through fresh arrangements and inspired performances that bridge generations of rock fans. Previous installments in the Borrowed Singles Series have paid tribute to artists including Fleetwood Mac, INXS, Roxette, The Cult, R.E.M., Modern English, and The Psychedelic Furs, each receiving praise for honoring the originals while offering listeners a unique new perspective. With "The Flame," Covert Stations continues its mission of celebrating timeless songwriting through modern collaboration, proving that great songs can find new life when placed in the hands of passionate musicians.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SOLYSTALGIA UNLEASHES CRUSHING SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM OUT NOW VIA NAMELESS GRAVE RECORDS Featuring guest vocals from Tanner Anderson (Obsequiae, Majesties, Crypt Sermon), with drumming by Austin Wheeler (Savage Oath) Stream and purchase: https://namelessgraverecords.bandcamp.com/ https://namelessgraverecords.com/ Death-doom newcomers Solystalgia have officially released their self-titled debut album, available now through Nameless Grave Records. Combining suffocating doom, intricate death metal riffing, and haunting atmospheric passages, Solystalgia delivers a powerful and emotionally devastating listening experience that is already earning widespread critical acclaim. Clocking in at 37 minutes, Solystalgia explores themes of grief, unimaginable atrocity, and inherited suffering through massive riffs, mournful melodies, and immersive songwriting. The album features the commanding drumming of Austin Wheeler (Savage Oath) alongside guest vocal performances from Tanner Anderson (Obsequiae, Majesties, Crypt Sermon), whose contrasting vocal styles deepen the emotional weight of the record. Produced and mixed by the band before being mastered by acclaimed engineer Arthur Rizk, the album balances crushing heaviness with expansive ambient textures, allowing every colossal riff and echoing synth passage room to breathe. Austin Wheeler describes the album simply: "Solystalgia is a 37 minute riff-filled meditation on loss, unfathomable atrocity and the monumental weight of inheritance." Critics have responded with overwhelming praise. Invisible Oranges recently hailed the record as: "Solystalgia is nothing short of a triumph from all involved." The publication went on to compare the album's emotional impact to landmark releases such as Trisagion by Ethereal Shroud and The Mantle by Agalloch, praising its remarkable balance of devastating heaviness and atmospheric depth. Fans of Hooded Menace, Dream Unending, Mortiferum, Ahab, and Disembowelment will find plenty to admire in Solystalgia. Rather than relying solely on brute force, the band crafts an immersive sonic landscape where crushing death-doom collides with melancholy ambience, resulting in an album that is both emotionally resonant and sonically overwhelming. With its sophisticated songwriting, exceptional performances, and oppressive atmosphere, Solystalgia stands as one of the year's most compelling death-doom releases and an essential listen for fans of the genre's modern evolution.
