FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THE GRAND MYTH UNLEASHES FULL-LENGTH CONCEPT ALBUM “OF VULTURES AND DRAGONS” Release Date: February 24, 2026 Genre: Progressive Death Metal For Fans Of: The Black Dahlia Murder, Between the Buried and Me, Rivers of Nihil Stream & Purchase: https://thegrandmyth.bandcamp.com/ Brandon Bordman’s one-man progressive death metal project, The Grand Myth, announces the release of its highly anticipated full-length concept album Of Vultures and Dragons, now available worldwide. The album follows the single Through the River Styx, which dropped December 5, 2025, and sets the stage for an immersive, brutal, and narrative-driven journey through the Primitive War universe. Known for blending jaw-dropping technical prowess with immersive storytelling, Bordman pushes the boundaries of metal with this ambitious release. "Of Vultures and Dragons is the fully realized vision of what I wanted to do with The Devils of Vulture Valley. It is an all-encompassing and uncompromising concept album about the beasts of the Primitive War universe and the men who are forced to live and fight with them. I wanted to capture all the emotions I felt while reading through the novels and I think this collection of songs will work as a fantastic soundtrack to anyone who dares to step foot into the violent and unrelenting world of Primitive War," Bordman explains. The album features a stellar lineup of guest musicians and voice actors, including Nizar Ibrahim, PhD (Of Vultures and Dragons), Johnnie Wallace (Father Tyrant), David Ralyea (Through the River Styx), and more, adding depth and intensity to the record. Bordman handled all instrumentals himself, with mixing by Georg Cotta and Bordman, and mastering by Neil Schneider. Fans can experience genre-defying progressive death metal coupled with a fully immersive narrative, making Of Vultures and Dragons not just an album, but an epic journey. Of Vultures and Dragons is independently released under The Grand Myth, solidifying Brandon Bordman’s reputation as one of metal’s most ambitious and boundary-pushing artists.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Matt McGachy of Cryptopsy Talks An Insatiable Violence, 30 Years of None So Vile, and the 2026 Decibel Tour Death metal fans, get ready—Matt McGachy of Cryptopsy tore into an exclusive interview on The Zach Moonshine Show at Metal Devastation Radio, giving listeners a front-row seat to the past, present, and future of one of death metal’s most extreme bands. From the crushing new album An Insatiable Violence to the upcoming 2026 Decibel Magazine Tour, Matt delivered insight, humor, and exclusives that fans won’t want to miss. A Year of Extreme Metal Chaos Reflecting on the past year, Matt said: “Our European tour with 200 Stab Wounds and Fury and Corpse Pile celebrating the 30th anniversary of None So Vile—31 shows in 31 days, 15 sold out—was insane. Death metal is alive and thriving. It’s nonstop energy, everywhere we go.” Highlights included back-to-back shows in Tokyo, long-awaited performances in Australia, and crushing U.S. dates with Nile. Matt emphasized how fan energy fuels the band: “Every show is a gift. After everything that’s happened in the past few years, I try to appreciate every moment, every fan, and every stage. That’s what keeps us going.” Legacy Meets Relevance Cryptopsy isn’t just living in their legacy. Landing a second cover with Decibel Magazine in under a year proves the band remains vital in extreme metal. “Decibel has always been a beacon for extreme music. To be featured again shows that Cryptopsy is more than just a legacy band—we’re relevant, we’re still extreme, and we’re still evolving,” Matt said. The band’s Juno Award nomination for An Insatiable Violence also underscores their impact. “Unlike the Grammys, the Junos actually recognize extreme metal. That’s huge for us,” he added. Exclusive: Cryptopsy’s Next-Level Decibel Tour Matt dropped an exclusive on the 2026 Decibel Tour: Cryptopsy is stepping up production like never before. A permanent lighting designer and a full visual stage experience will transform their shows. “We want fans to leave saying, ‘What did I just witness?’” Matt said. While they’ll honor None So Vile, the band is mixing in new material to create a balanced set that celebrates both legacy and current work. “We are more than a legacy band. We respect the legacy, but we’re creating something alive and current,” he emphasized. Fans, Phones, and All-Ages Shows Matt also discussed fan interaction, technology at live shows, and the importance of all-ages concerts: “These kids have the stamina to pit through an entire set, and it’s amazing to see the next generation of metalheads embracing the scene.” He even shared a hilarious on-stage moment: grabbing a fan’s phone mid-song and screaming into it. “It turns a moment of distraction into a memory for life,” he said. Looking Forward From celebrating 30 years of None So Vile to touring the U.S. and Canada, Cryptopsy is proving death metal isn’t just music—it’s an experience. Fans can catch them on the Decibel Tour and at the Metal and Beer Fest in Philly, complete with an exclusive craft beer collab from Atlanta. “We want fans to have a sensory, unforgettable experience. That’s what the 2026 Decibel Tour is all about,” Matt promised. Don’t Miss Out Whether you’re a lifelong Cryptopsy fan or new to extreme metal, this interview is a masterclass in brutal riffs, relentless touring, and the human side of one of death metal’s most enduring bands. Grab your tickets, check out their merch, and prepare for a show that’s more than music—it’s a full-throttle assault on the senses.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SARDONIC WITCHERY Returns With “Under The Sign Of The Trident” Digital Release: March 2026 | Physical CD & Cassette: April–July 2026 Texas-based black metal warlords SARDONIC WITCHERY announce their latest sonic assault, Under The Sign Of The Trident, a fully re-recorded compilation that reignites the flame of raw, underground black thrash metal. This release stands as both a tribute to their decade-spanning catalog and a sharpened weapon aimed straight at the future of the cult. Forged in 2012 in Porto, Portugal and relocated to Texas in 2013, SARDONIC WITCHERY has remained a one-man black metal entity led by King Demogorgon, the architect behind all vocals, drums, guitars, bass, and lyrical vision. Since 2025, G. Lucis Ruina has joined as a full member, bringing razor-edged production and heightened ferocity to the band’s ritual arsenal. A Rebirth of Blackened Fury Under The Sign Of The Trident gathers re-recorded material from four key releases: Kult Of The Underground Warrior (2014) King Of The Midnight Legions (2017) Moonlight Sacrifice Ritual (2020) Barbaric Evil Power (2024) Alongside the notorious “Black Fucking Metal” from the 7” EP The Maniac Of Steel (2016), these eight tracks have been reforged in 2026 with intensified occult power, vicious riffing, and ritual precision. This is the foundation for the coming live desecrations on the Under The Sign Of The Trident Tour 2026. Live Rituals Across Continents The band continues its international conquest with confirmed appearances across: United Kingdom Mexico 12 U.S. states, including Maryland Deathfest Joining King Demogorgon and G. Lucis Ruina in live ceremonies are session members James Siegrist and Daniel Salamanca, bringing chaos and devotion to every stage. Underground Integrity SARDONIC WITCHERY remains committed to raw, aggressive riffing, Luciferian occultism, witchcraft, and anti-Christian blasphemy, all wrapped in the barbaric spirit of true black metal. Their sound rejects sterile modern polish in favor of primitive intensity, honoring the early waves of the genre while carving out their own merciless legacy.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PHASERIP Unleashes Debut Full-Length Album Out of Phase – Out Now Cross-dimensional, cross-continental metal project PHASERIP announces the release of their debut full-length album, Out of Phase, now available on all major streaming platforms https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/phaserip/out-of-phase Blending metal, grunge metal, and alternative metal, PHASERIP crafts a soundscape reminiscent of Faith No More, System of a Down, and Soundgarden, while carving out its own heavy, melodic, and cinematic identity. The album’s narrative follows a man ripped into an alternate reality, exploring themes of isolation, displacement, and identity, perfectly captured by the project’s mascot, ‘Phaser Phil,’ an outsider wandering a distorted mirror of our world. PHASERIP is led by Fresno songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jawsh Willis, who performs most guitars, bass, and keyboards. The core lineup spans the globe: drummer Cezary Borawski and vocalist Oscar Klassen record from Poland (Oscar originally from Mexico), forming the backbone of the project’s sonic intensity. Out of Phase features an international roster of guest musicians, including Finnish death-metal vocalist Topias Jokipii, Algerian extreme-metal vocalist Redouane Aoumeur, award-winning Japanese guitarist Preston Murdock, Fresno musicians Matthew Banwart and Grayson Nolan, and former bandmates Trevor Bryant, Joey Ayala, and Daniel C. Wallace. Produced and mixed by Facundo at Sweep Blast Studios in Argentina, the album delivers crushing drop-tuned riffs, soaring hooks, and atmospheric storytelling. PHASERIP also pays tribute to a personal hero with a cover of Black Sabbath’s “After All (The Dead),” honoring the legendary Ronnie James Dio. Jawsh Willis on the release:"Out of Phase follows a man who slips into a reality where no one knows him. It’s a metaphor for the way so many of us feel—out of place, unseen, and searching for meaning in a world that doesn’t feel like ours. If you’ve ever woken up in the wrong universe, this album will feel like home." PHASERIP is self-managed, independent, and distributed via DistroKid.
