FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Thirteen Goats - Capricorn Rising – A Unique Extreme Metal Rock Opera Reviewed by Metal Temple! Thirteen Goats is thrilled to announce the release of their latest album, Capricorn Rising, which has recently been reviewed by Metal Temple. The review highlights the band's unique blend of extreme metal styles, calling it a “rock opera” that combines Thrash, Death, Grind, and Heavy Metal to tell a gripping narrative. Check out the full review here: https://metal-temple.com/review/thirteen-goats-capricorn-rising/ In the words of Laura Glover from Metal Temple, “THIRTEEN GOATS Capricorn Rising is a unique Extreme Metal Rock Opera blending Thrash, Death, Grind, and Heavy Metal as it follows Shepard, the goat-skull wearing Antichrist, on a mission to overthrow humanity. Lyrics are dark and intense, with violent imagery and apocalyptic themes. This album displays the band’s impressive technical skills and genre-pushing creativity. I would definitely recommend anyone to check this album out, as with its deft blending of so many styles, everyone can find a piece they like about this band.” Founded in 2018 by a classically-trained Shakespearean actor and an auto mechanic, Thirteen Goats emerged from Vancouver, BC, but the band’s members share roots in the former Soviet Union, including Ukraine, Lithuania, Armenia, and Russia. This diverse cultural background influences their unique sound, as they aim to transcend the boundaries of metal subgenres. As the band puts it, “Are we Extreme metal, Death metal, and so on? We don’t care, and you shouldn’t either.” Capricorn Rising, released on July 12, 2024, is a concept album filled with extreme rock and metal operatic themes. It follows the journey of the main character, Shepard, the band's mascot, who dons a goat skull as he raises an army of demon goats to liberate the Earth from humanity's greed and destruction. The album delves into themes of death and despair as Shepard grapples with his faith in humanity and ultimately makes a dark pact to become the Antichrist.Album Highlights:     “Sign of the Goat” – The opening track sets the stage for the album, introducing listeners to Shepard's sinister character with intense riffs and aggressive vocals.     “Global Fuckup” – This high-energy track showcases Thirteen Goats’ signature blend of intense riffing and theatrical songwriting as Shepard prepares his army for war against humanity.     “Beheading Zoo” – A brutal portrayal of battle, this track combines Thrash Metal elements with unapologetic lyrics that capture the album’s intensity.     “Goats of War” – Dark and visceral, this song paints a vivid picture of Shepard leading his demon goats into battle, with relentless energy matching the brutal lyrics. Thirteen Goats invites metal fans and newcomers alike to immerse themselves in the captivating narrative of Capricorn Rising. The band continues to push the boundaries of extreme metal with their innovative sound and compelling storytelling.

Image by Michael Bolli from Pixabay When unexpected expenses pop up, and payday feels like ages away, a loan might seem like a lifesaver. But hold your horses! Before jumping into this quick fix, it's crucial to understand what you're getting yourself into. Payday loans can be a double-edged sword—they offer immediate relief but can lead to a cycle of debt if not handled carefully. This guide will delve into what experts suggest you should consider before taking out a payday loan. Let's navigate this financial maze together and ensure you're making the smartest move for your wallet. Understanding the True Cost of Payday Loans First things first, let's unpack the real cost of payday loans. They might look simple on the surface—a small loan to tide you over until your next paycheck. However, the devil is in the details. Payday loans often come with sky-high interest rates and fees that can spin your head. Imagine borrowing a few hundred dollars and then being slapped with fees that amount to a significant portion of the loan. We're talking about annual percentage rates (APRs) that can soar into the triple digits. That's a hefty price to pay for quick cash. These costs can quickly snowball, especially if you're unable to repay the loan on time. Reading the fine print and understanding exactly what you agree to is essential. Calculate the total amount you'll owe, including all interest and fees. Don't just focus on the immediate cash in hand. Consider how the repayment will fit into your budget. Can you cover it without falling short on other essential expenses like rent or groceries? Experts advise you to consider only a payday loan if you're confident you can repay it in full and on time. Otherwise, you risk rolling over the loan, incurring additional fees, and falling into a debt trap. It's a slippery slope that can lead to long-term financial stress. So, before you sign on the dotted line, ensure you've done the math and fully understand the cost involved. Exploring Alternatives to Payday Loans Before committing to a payday loan, exploring other options is wise. You might be surprised at the alternatives available that won't put such a strain on your finances. For instance, have you considered reaching out to friends or family? It might be uncomfortable, but borrowing from someone you trust can save you from exorbitant fees and interest rates. Another avenue is to speak with your employer. Some companies offer paycheck advances or employee assistance programs. It never hurts to ask, and you might find a far less costly solution than a payday loan. Employers often appreciate the initiative and may be willing to help you in a pinch. Credit unions and community banks sometimes offer small, short-term loans with much more favorable terms. If you're a member, you could qualify for a loan with lower interest rates and more manageable repayment plans. Even if you're not a member, joining a credit union can provide access to these benefits. Don't overlook the possibility of negotiating with your creditors. If the financial crunch is due to bills or existing debts, reach out to those you owe. They may be willing to set up a payment plan or offer a temporary deferment. Companies often prefer to work with you rather than risk default. Consider selling unused items or picking up a side gig to generate extra cash. Platforms for selling goods online make turning unwanted items into money easier than ever. Gig economy jobs like ridesharing, food delivery, or freelance work can provide quick income to bridge the gap. These options might require more effort but can prevent you from accumulating debt. Assessing Your Ability to Repay Without Hardship Let's get real about your financial situation. Before taking out a payday loan, assessing whether you can repay it without causing yourself further hardship is crucial. It's easy to assume that your next paycheck will cover the loan, but unexpected expenses can throw a wrench in that plan. Create a detailed budget that accounts for all your income and expenses. Include the payday loan repayment in this budget. Will you still have enough to cover your necessities? If repaying the loan leaves you scraping the bottom of the barrel, it might not be the best move. Consider any upcoming expenses that could affect your ability to repay. Car repairs, medical bills, or even seasonal costs like higher utility bills can impact your finances. Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs when you least expect it. Planning ahead can help you avoid a tight spot. Also, think about the stability of your income. If your job situation is uncertain or if you have irregular income, relying on future earnings to repay a loan is risky business. You don't want to find yourself between a rock and a hard place if things don't go as planned. Experts suggest building an emergency fund to cover unexpected expenses. Even a small cushion can make a big difference. It might not help you right now, but starting to save can prevent similar situations in the future. If you're not confident in your ability to repay a payday loan without hardship, it's a strong signal to consider other options. Taking out a payday loan is a significant financial decision that shouldn't be taken lightly. By understanding the true costs involved, exploring alternative solutions, and honestly assessing your ability to repay without hardship, you can make a choice that's in your best interest. Remember, financial responsibility isn't just about solving today's problems—it's about setting yourself up for a stable future. Before you leap, take a moment to weigh your options. If you're unsure, reach out for advice. Sometimes, the best solution is a combination of small steps rather than one big leap. By approaching the situation thoughtfully and carefully, you'll navigate this challenge and become stronger on the other side.

Known for their crushing 7- and 8-string guitar riffs, downtempo compositions, and relentless breakdowns, Seasons Awake continues to push the boundaries of heavy music, making this release highly anticipated within the extreme metal community. Formed in 2016, Seasons Awake quickly established themselves in the underground scene with their blend of chugging guitars and savage, downtempo elements. Their evolution hit a new peak in 2021 when the band welcomed vocalist Jack from Black Mass (Slamming Brutal Death Metal), taking their sound to a new level of aggression and intensity. That year, they dropped the single Desolate, featuring C.J.

In 2023, the release of Martyrdom further solidified the band's trajectory, smashing all previous records for Seasons Awake, with over 10,000 streams on its second day of release alone. The success of Martyrdom set the stage for I: Dreamstate, a single that is primed to build on their growing momentum. Featuring bone-crushing tracks like Backstabber and CXRRUPTION, which boasts a guest appearance from Taylor Barber of Left to Suffer, I: Dreamstate promises to be one of the heaviest and most innovative releases from the band yet. For fans of: Black Tongue, Fit For An Autopsy, Within Destruction, Seasons Awake continues to deliver a sound that is not only heavy but also forward-thinking, incorporating influences from across the metal spectrum while staying rooted in deathcore. Seasons Awake - A Journey Through the Years:     2016: Seasons Awake is formed, debuting their signature sound with 7- and 8-string, double drop-tuned riffs.    2021: New era begins with vocalist Jack, releasing Desolate, featuring C.J. McCreery.    2023: Martyrdom smashes records for the band, setting the stage for future success.    2024: I: Dreamstate release, with guest features and new levels of brutality. What’s Next for Seasons Awake? Alongside I: Dreamstate, Seasons Awake has plans to re-release some of their earlier material, continuing to build on their evolving sound and fanbase.
