FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE WINTER BLOOD UNLEASHES FROSTBOUND INFERNO, A DESCENT INTO MELODIC BLACK METAL Virginia's Melodic Black Metal Project Delivers Its Most Personal and Fully Realized Work Yet, Forged Through Melancholic Atmosphere, Fierce Riffs, and Epic Melodic Intensity Album: Frostbound InfernoRelease Date: November 6, 2026Genre: Melodic Black MetalFor Fans Of: Naglfar, Windir, Dissection Emerging from Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, melodic black metal project Winter Blood has officially unleashed Frostbound Inferno, its latest full-length album, released November 6, 2026. Founded in 2012 by creative force Manothanas, Winter Blood channels the bleak majesty of black metal through a deeply personal vision shaped by philosophy, folklore, poetic literature, and the natural world. Built around the tension between raw aggression and haunting melodic beauty, Frostbound Inferno represents the most complete expression of the Winter Blood sound to date. Cold, deliberate, and emotionally charged, the album draws listeners into an atmosphere where relentless instrumentation meets sweeping melodies and immersive compositions. Its musical identity reflects a world of inner struggle, grief, and transcendence, exploring the darker corners of the human experience through a distinctly wintry lens. For Manothanas, the album marks a significant personal and creative milestone, with all instrumentation, composition, and audio engineering handled independently. "This is my greatest work yet where I performed all instrumentation, composition, and audio engineering. It's the most personal and fully realized expression of what I want this music to be." Since its formation in 2012, Winter Blood has developed its identity through a dedication to both the intensity of live performance and the meticulous craft of studio production. After focusing primarily on live shows during its early years, the project shifted toward recording new material in 2020, allowing Manothanas to further refine the layered instrumentation and atmospheric depth at the heart of the project's music. Now delivering its third full-length album, Winter Blood continues to evolve while remaining committed to the uncompromising spirit of melodic black metal. Former live drummer Mahimus now contributes as band manager and creative collaborator, supporting the project's promotional efforts and future direction. With Frostbound Inferno, Winter Blood invites listeners into a world where darkness becomes a landscape, melody becomes an instrument of emotional expression, and every composition moves with the force of a winter storm. ** Frostbound Inferno is out now.** Listen to Frostbound Inferno:https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/winterblood/frostbound-inferno Bandcamp:https://winterbloodmusic.bandcamp.com/ Listen to Winter Blood:https://linktr.ee/winterbloodmusic Follow Winter Blood:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/winterbloodmusicInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/winterbloodmusic/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@winterblood5228 Press Contact:Winter Bloodwinterbloodmusic@gmail.com Less

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE SEPTARIAN UNLEASH HORROR-FUELED METAL ASSAULT WITH NEW SINGLE "PRIME TIME IS KILLING TIME" Alabama Heavy Metal Force Explores the Twisted Mind of Freddy Krueger in a Brutal, Melodic Tribute to Horror's Most Iconic Nightmare Southern metal outfit SEPTARIAN has unleashed its latest single, "Prime Time Is Killing Time," released October 31, 2026, and now available on all major streaming platforms. Bringing together the sinister world of horror cinema and the uncompromising power of heavy metal, the track takes listeners inside the twisted mind of one of horror's most infamous characters, Freddy Krueger. Rather than approaching the story from the perspective of Freddy's victims, Septarian takes a darker route, inviting listeners inside the twisted consciousness of the monster himself. Driven by crushing riffs, aggressive rhythms, and haunting melodic passages, "Prime Time Is Killing Time" captures the menacing atmosphere and relentless intensity that make horror and heavy metal such a natural combination. The band explains: "Prime Time Is Killing Time takes listeners inside the twisted mind of one of horror's most iconic killers, Freddy Krueger. Rather than telling the story through the eyes of his victims, we wanted to explore the nightmare from the monster's perspective. It's sinister, relentless, and captures everything we love about horror and heavy metal." Emerging from the Alabama underground, Septarian has built its identity around unapologetically heavy music and emotionally charged songwriting. Drawing from the intensity of heavy metal and melodic death metal, the band combines punishing guitar work, haunting melodies, and powerful vocal performances into a sound that balances aggression with emotional depth. Fronted by Megan Hudson, whose vocal delivery moves between raw aggression and haunting vulnerability, Septarian explores the darker corners of the human experience, including trauma, survival, deception, and transformation. The lineup features Josh Cunningham on rhythm guitar, John Martin on bass, Kenneth Galloway on drums, and Nick Thiessen on lead guitar. Together, the five musicians bring years of shared history and chemistry to a sound that refuses to be confined by convention. With previous material including "Gravity" and the continued evolution of their songwriting, Septarian demonstrates a willingness to explore different creative territories while maintaining the heaviness and emotional honesty at the core of their identity. "Prime Time Is Killing Time" continues that approach, pairing the band's crushing musical foundation with a concept rooted in horror culture. Released on Halloween, the single arrives at the perfect time for fans of dark storytelling, cinematic horror, and uncompromising heavy metal. Independently operated and firmly rooted in the Southern metal underground, Septarian isn't interested in chasing trends or manufacturing darkness. Their music gives a voice to the subjects many would rather leave buried, delivering it with intensity, conviction, and a distinctly human edge. For fans of: Lamb of God, Arch Enemy, Sepultura.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE BORIS BILLING CONFRONTS THE MONSTERS WITH NEW SINGLE AND OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO Australian Heavy Rock & Metal Artist Explores the Power of Fear With Second Single From Forthcoming Debut Solo Album Global Monsoon November 13, 2026 Australian heavy rock and metal artist Boris Billing returns with “Monsters,” the second single from his forthcoming debut solo album, Global Monsoon. Released Friday, November 13, the new track explores the terrifying power of fear and the imaginary demons we create within our own minds. An accompanying official music video, directed by James Latter, is set to premiere Sunday, November 15. Following the launch of his solo career with debut single “I'm Coming Home,” Billing takes a darker psychological turn with “Monsters,” examining how anxiety, uncertainty and overthinking can transform everyday worries into something far more frightening. The accompanying music video brings that concept to life through an unsettling visual narrative. Set against an isolated rural property, the video follows Billing as he is relentlessly pursued by a sinister figure whose very existence becomes increasingly questionable. As the story unfolds, the line between reality and imagination begins to blur, reflecting the song's central theme: sometimes the things we fear most are nothing more than creations of our own minds. BORIS BILLING ON “MONSTERS” “We spend so much of our lives worrying about things that may never happen. We imagine the worst, stress over things we can't control, and before you know it, we've created these fucking monsters inside our own heads. That's exactly what I wanted to portray in the video. Sometimes the things that terrify us most aren't even real. They're just fears we've given power to. Monsters is about confronting those fears and refusing to let them control your life.” With “Monsters,” Billing continues establishing the creative direction of his solo project, building on the heavy rock and metal foundations introduced with “I'm Coming Home” while exploring darker and more introspective subject matter. As the second preview of Global Monsoon, the single offers another glimpse into Billing's forthcoming debut album and the range of ideas shaping this new chapter of his musical career. Where “I'm Coming Home” celebrated the beauty and brutality of Australia, “Monsters” turns inward, confronting the psychological battles that can become just as intimidating as anything waiting outside our doors. Sometimes the biggest monsters aren't hiding in the darkness. They're already living inside our heads. “MONSTERS” Artist: Boris BillingSingle: MonstersAlbum: Global Monsoon (Forthcoming Debut Solo Album)Label: Ribcage RecordsSingle Release: November 13, 2026Official Music Video Premiere: November 15, 2026Music Video Director: James Latter LISTEN TO “MONSTERS” NOW: https://release.landr.com/991061469717 OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO: Premiering November 15, 2026.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE UTILITY PROVIDER Unleash DIY Music Video for “Social Murder” November 28 Vancouver Progressive Metal Outfit Bring Their Explosive Anthem of Resistance to the Screen With a Video Entirely Filmed and Produced In-House VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA – Progressive metal outfit UTILITY PROVIDER are gearing up to premiere the official music video for "Social Murder" on Saturday, November 28, 2026. Taken from their 2024 album Challenger, the track delivers a concentrated blast of aggression, combining crushing instrumentation, relentless energy, and an uncompromising lyrical message about standing against oppression. The new video represents a completely independent production effort, filmed, produced, and edited by bassist Brandon Bosa inside the band's own rehearsal space. Rather than relying on an outside production company, Utility Provider took the creative process into their own hands and brought their vision to life from the ground up. Reflecting on the experience, the band shares: "The video was completely recorded and produced by our bassist Brandon Bosa right here in our jam space and the result was better than anything we could have hoped for!!" Originally released on November 26, 2024, as part of Challenger, "Social Murder" is one of the album's most direct and aggressive moments. Clocking in at just under two minutes, the song wastes no time delivering its message. Frontman Tyler Mayfield explains that the track was written as an anthem of resistance. Drawing inspiration from the term "social murder," coined by Friedrich Engels in 1845 to describe preventable deaths resulting from social, political, and economic oppression, the song takes aim at the systems and forces responsible for that suffering. Musically, "Social Murder" hits immediately with a powerful combination of guitar, bass, and drums before launching into nearly two minutes of unfiltered intensity. Its compact structure and confrontational delivery make it a standout moment on Challenger. Produced by Utility Provider, Challenger was recorded and engineered by Nick Bergeron at Starport Studios in Langley, British Columbia. Mixing and mastering were handled by Michael Kraushaar at Little Red Studios in Vancouver, British Columbia. Formed in 2013, Utility Provider have spent more than a decade developing their own brand of progressive metal, incorporating elements of thrash, alternative metal, groove, and progressive experimentation. With influences ranging from Alice in Chains and Gojira to Devin Townsend, the band combines technical musicianship with an emphasis on powerful songwriting and dynamic arrangements. Their third full-length album, Challenger, followed 2019's All in Time and 2022's Lost in Humanity's Grip, continuing the band's evolution while exploring themes of overcoming adversity, personal freedom, and breaking away from the chains imposed by society. With the upcoming "Social Murder" video, Utility Provider bring one of their most uncompromising tracks to life through a completely independent creative effort. The official "Social Murder" music video premieres Saturday, November 28, 2026.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NILE SAPPHIRE Announce Debut Single "ECO," Delivering A Powerful Progressive Metal Call For Environmental Awareness Venezuelan-Spanish Duo Combines Crushing Progressive Riffs, Atmospheric Soundscapes, And Soaring Vocals On November 27 Debut OCAÑA, TOLEDO, SPAIN – Emerging progressive metal duo NILE SAPPHIRE are preparing to make their official entrance onto the international metal scene with the release of their debut single, "ECO," arriving November 27, 2026. Blending technically driven progressive metal, expansive atmospheric arrangements, and commanding vocal performances, the independent project delivers a powerful introduction backed by a message that reaches far beyond music. Founded in 2024 in Ocaña, Toledo, Spain, NILE SAPPHIRE brings together Venezuelan musicians Félix Molina and Evely Artemisa, combining their individual musical journeys into a collaborative vision built on technical musicianship, creative exploration, and meaningful songwriting. "ECO" serves as an urgent wake-up call addressing humanity's destructive impact on the natural world. Confronting environmental indifference and the consequences of human activity, the song challenges listeners to recognize their responsibility toward the planet and become active participants in creating change. Rather than simply highlighting the problem, NILE SAPPHIRE uses the track as a call to awareness and action. Musically, the project draws inspiration from the progressive heaviness of Gojira, the melodic sophistication of Evergrey, and the expansive power of Kamelot, while developing an identity of its own through intricate guitar work, atmospheric textures, and expressive lead vocals. Behind the project are two musicians with deep roots in Venezuela's metal scene. Guitarist, songwriter, and producer Félix Molina, originally from Caracas, previously developed his musical identity through bands including Silmarilion and Overground before expanding into music production and founding progressive metal project CIVILIS. Vocalist Evely Rodríguez, performing as Evely Artemisa, originally from Valencia, Venezuela, brings an equally diverse musical background, having fronted projects including Mística, LunaSacra, Terra Nostra, and Aragonia. Her powerful and versatile vocal approach provides the defining melodic character of NILE SAPPHIRE. The band's formation represents more than a musical collaboration. Molina and Artemisa originally developed their first musical ideas in Venezuela before emigrating to Peru in 2018 and eventually settling in Spain, where they finally brought NILE SAPPHIRE to life. Their journey of displacement, perseverance, and artistic determination is reflected in the project's identity. Even the band's name carries personal significance. "Nile" honors Evely's family heritage and pays tribute to her father, while "Sapphire" references a star sapphire belonging to a relative of Félix, a gemstone known for intensifying its brilliance when exposed to light. Working independently from their home studio in Toledo, the duo maintains complete creative control over the songwriting, recording, and production process. Félix Molina handles guitars, session instrumentation, drum programming, recording, editing, and production, while Bertrand Cape contributes mixing and mastering expertise. With "ECO," NILE SAPPHIRE introduce a project built on technical ambition, emotional expression, and a willingness to address issues that extend beyond the boundaries of the metal genre. The journey officially begins November 27, 2026.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE COSTA RICAN DEATH METAL DUO MAUSOLENT TO UNLEASH DEBUT EP "MORBID INCARNATION" AND PHYSICAL EDITION OF "STENCH OF DEATH" NOVEMBER 27 VIA CDN RECORDS Inspired by the Chainsaw-Toned Death Metal of Early '90s Sweden, MAUSOLENT... More

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE COSTA RICAN DEATH METAL DUO MAUSOLENT TO UNLEASH DEBUT EP "MORBID INCARNATION" AND PHYSICAL EDITION OF "STENCH OF DEATH" NOVEMBER 27 VIA CDN RECORDS Inspired by the Chainsaw-Toned Death Metal of Early '90s Sweden, MAUSOLENT Brings Filthy HM-2 Worship to the Forefront With Two Releases Available for Preorder Now CDN Records welcomes the next chapter of Costa Rican death metal duo MAUSOLENT, who are preparing to unleash their debut EP, Morbid Incarnation, alongside the first physical edition of their debut demo, Stench of Death, on November 27, 2026. Born from a love of the HM-2 pedal and the unmistakable chainsaw-toned aggression of early '90s Swedish death metal, MAUSOLENT delivers a sound rooted in the raw, filthy, and uncompromising spirit of the genre's underground foundations. Based in Cartago, Costa Rica, MAUSOLENT features Diego Ballar on vocals, guitar, drum programming, and lyrics, alongside Tomás Campos on bass and co-writing duties. Although the project finally materialized in 2026 with the release of Stench of Death, its origins stretch back to late 2019. The band's journey took several turns along the way. After initially developing the concept and writing lyrics, the duo revisited the project in December 2024, eventually returning to rehearsals and developing new material. Attempts to bring additional musicians into the lineup never quite captured the chemistry they were looking for. Ultimately, Diego and Tomás decided to move forward as a two-piece, recording Stench of Death themselves in 2025. The result was an unapologetic tribute to the Swedish death metal underground, drawing inspiration from legendary acts including Entombed, Dismember, Nihilist, God Macabre, Macabre End, Traumatic, Crematory, and Authorized. The demo caught the attention of CDN Records, who officially welcomed MAUSOLENT to their roster in July 2026. Now, the duo returns with Morbid Incarnation, their debut EP, arriving alongside the first physical edition of Stench of Death. Both releases will be available digitally and physically, giving fans an opportunity to experience the band's early work alongside its newest material. Fans can get their first taste of the upcoming EP by streaming the title track, "Morbid Incarnation," now on the CDN Records YouTube channel.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE GAME MISCONDVCT Unleash Hockey-Fueled Slamming Deathcore Debut EP FULL SPEED ZAMBONI MASSACRE Out Now Via CDN Records Sherbrooke, Québec's Hockey-Obsessed Slam Outfit Delivers Five Tracks Of Guttural Vocals, Crushing Riffs, And Full-Contact Death Metal Mayhem Sherbrooke, Québec slamming deathcore outfit GAME MISCONDVCT have officially unleashed their debut EP, FULL SPEED ZAMBONI MASSACRE, out now through CDN Records. Featuring five tracks of punishing slam riffs, cavernous gutturals, pulverizing drums, and unapologetically over-the-top hockey-themed brutality, the release is available now, with the full EP streaming exclusively through Slam Worldwide. Built on crushing slam riffs, cavernous gutturals, pulverizing drums, and riffs that hit like several tons of frozen machinery, GAME MISCONDVCT deliver death metal with absolutely no interest in subtlety. FULL SPEED ZAMBONI MASSACRE is a full-contact assault designed to flatten everything in its path. The band previously introduced themselves with the singles "J.T.T (JOCKSTRAPTESTICULARTORSION)" and "FULL SPEED ZAMBONI MASSACRE," giving listeners an early taste of the mayhem waiting on the full release. Formed in late 2025, GAME MISCONDVCT emerged from a shared love of brutally heavy music, ridiculous memes, and hockey. The Sherbrooke quartet combines the crushing influence of Myspace-era deathcore and classic slam bands with a modern approach, delivering a sound fueled by massive breakdowns, relentless aggression, and pure sonic chaos. Their identity goes well beyond the music, incorporating legendary hockey moments, iconic quotes from hockey movies, and references to some of the most brutal players in the sport's history. The result is a collision of slam deathcore and Canadian hockey culture that is as absurd as it is devastating. With FULL SPEED ZAMBONI MASSACRE now officially out, GAME MISCONDVCT are ready to take their brand of rink-side destruction to the masses.
