Photo credit: Alberto Villalobos Pittsburgh deathcore juggernauts Signs Of The Swarm are pulling no punches in 2025, launching a brutal new chapter with their latest single, “Clouded Retinas,” featuring Will Ramos of Lorna Shore. Dropped just days before the band embarks on a massive European festival tour, the track arrives alongside a gripping visualizer, setting the stage for what promises to be a summer of sonic annihilation. Watch the visualizer now: [jrEmbed module="jrYouTube" youtube_id="8s7rlin0ejM"] An Anthem of Struggle and Strength Frontman David Simonich reveals a deeply personal inspiration behind “Clouded Retinas,” which reflects his battle with vision loss and a diagnosis of Stargardt disease. The lyrics are structured as a raw internal dialogue, with Ramos joining not just to deliver a blistering guest performance, but to help raise awareness around degenerative diseases and disability. “With Will holding it down for today's deathcore, I tried to showcase my influences from Nate Johnson and Vincent Bennett because the song feels modern yet nostalgic at the same time,” Simonich explains. A Glimpse Into the Future: To Rid Myself of Truth “Clouded Retinas” is the latest preview of the band’s highly anticipated sixth studio album, To Rid Myself of Truth, dropping August 22nd via Century Media Records. Reuniting with acclaimed producer Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, King 810), the band expands their sonic brutality, pulling in influences from titans like Meshuggah, Gojira, and Fear Factory. The album promises serrated edges and unrelenting aggression, featuring notable guest spots from Phil Bozeman (Whitechapel), Jack Murray (156/Silence), and Johnny Crowder (Prison, ex-Dark Sermon).

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DETERIOROT Unleashes Haunting New Music Video “Dark Embrace”A Cinematic Tribute to Classic Horror Icons From the Death Metal Veterans Hot off the heels of their triumphant return with 2023’s crushing release The Rebirth, legendary death metal pioneers DETERIOROT are back with another captivating visual—this time diving deep into their horror roots. The band proudly unveils the official music video for “Dark Embrace,” a chilling offering taken from The Rebirth, out now via Faithless Entertainment and Xtreem Music. An homage to the golden age of horror, Dark Embrace is a visual feast for fans of vintage macabre cinema. The video seamlessly weaves iconic imagery from the original MGM monster era—including nods to Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Wolfman—alongside the shadowy expressionism of films like Nosferatu. It’s a ghoulish celebration of classic terror, perfectly matched with DETERIOROT’s signature sound: menacing, atmospheric, and relentless. “This video is a love letter to the horror that inspired us as kids. It brings together the vintage aesthetic of black-and-white horror legends with the unholy energy of our music. It’s a perfect reflection of the spooky, haunting themes we’ve always embraced.” Dark Embrace marks another highlight from The Rebirth, a record hailed as one of the most impactful death metal returns in recent memory. The album continues to gain momentum, and this video further cements DETERIOROT’s legacy as purveyors of both sonic brutality and thematic depth. And there’s more to come—DETERIOROT is currently in post-production for their next full-length album, Awakening, with plans for more music videos and tour announcements on the horizon. DETERIOROT is back—undead and unstoppable. For press inquiries, interviews, or promo requests, please contact:zach@metaldevastationradio.com Check out the video and subscribe!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tommy Stewart's Dyerwulf Unleashes Ominous New Doom Metal Single “Lilith Crimson Deep 25” – Out June 6, 2025 via Black Doomba Records Atlanta, GA — Veteran doom metal duo Tommy Stewart’s Dyerwulf returns with a thunderous new single, “Lilith Crimson Deep 25,” dropping June 6, 2025 via Black Doomba Records. Known for their crushing low-end sonics and haunting atmospheres, the band once again delivers a hypnotic descent into the abyss that will captivate fans of Year of the Cobra, The Obsessed, and Pentagram. A brooding and seductive tribute to the dark feminine archetype, “Lilith Crimson Deep 25” is a sonic invocation wrapped in fuzzy bass riffs, ritualistic rhythms, and Tommy Stewart’s commanding vocal presence. The track was produced, recorded, and mixed by Stewart himself at Black Doomba Studio in Atlanta, Georgia, maintaining the raw authenticity and underground ethos that has defined the project since its inception. Tommy Stewart's Dyerwulf is led by Tommy Stewart (Hallows Eve, producer, and owner of Black Doomba Records), often accompanied by drummer Dennis Reid or other collaborators. Since their debut in 2016, TSD has toured extensively across the United States and shared stages with doom royalty such as Pentagram, The Skull, The Obsessed, and Year of the Cobra. The band has become a staple at underground festivals including Maryland Doom Fest, Snowblind Festival, and Tennessee Metal Devastation Fest. The release of “Lilith Crimson Deep 25” follows 2024’s well-received EP 'Fyrewulf One', and marks the beginning of a new cycle of creativity for the band. With 'Fyrewulf Two' currently in development and a third full-length album projected for 2026, Tommy Stewart's Dyerwulf is preparing for an even heavier chapter.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Dying Oath Unleashes New EP Hiraeth: A Roar from the Depths of Struggle and Hope Emerging from the crucible of adversity and armed with unrelenting resolve, metalcore heavyweights Dying Oath are proud to announce the release of their searing new EP, Hiraeth, available now on all major streaming platforms. Titled after a Welsh term that conveys a deep yearning for something lost or unreachable, Hiraeth is more than just a release—it’s a visceral soundtrack of grief, redemption, and unwavering defiance. Through thunderous riffs, cathartic screams, and haunting melodic layers, Dying Oath delivers their most emotionally charged and sonically diverse material to date. “This record is a reflection of everything we’ve endured—from personal battles to rebuilding ourselves creatively,” says lead guitarist and founding member Josh Hagee. “Hiraeth is about fighting through the fire and finding a piece of yourself on the other side.” Produced by Jamie King (Between the Buried and Me, The Contortionist), the 13-minute EP showcases standout tracks like “Burn,” which brings gut-punching intensity and a powerful message of survival to listeners battling their own demons. Rooted in the traditions of early 2000s metalcore and shaped by modern metal influences, Dying Oath has forged a sound reminiscent of In Flames, Kittie, and Bullet for My Valentine—a sound that has earned them festival slots at Louder Than Life, Blue Ridge Rock Festival, and the Gathering of the Juggalos. Their live performances are renowned for their raw energy, fierce musicianship, and deeply personal connection with fans. 🎧 Stream Hiraeth Now:https://open.spotify.com/album/5BEXRTtuMdVlgouxQUxPVL Check out the video and subscribe!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Moonskin Unleashes New Single Blood Enslaved — A Defiant Cry Against a Thoughtless Industry Release Date: August 16, 2024Label: Rexius RecordsGenre: Melodic Death MetalFFO: In Flames, Children of Bodom, HypocrisyProduced & Mixed by: Kris North & Mats Eriksson at BoomBridge Studios In a world where the mainstream music industry churns out sterilized hits engineered for algorithms rather than emotion, Moonskin emerges once more from the abyss with Blood Enslaved, their most unflinching and deliberate track to date. Known for channeling primal human terror through immersive, melodic death metal soundscapes, Moonskin refuses to play by the rules of musical sedation. Their sound is steeped in the dark mysticism of bands like In Flames, Children of Bodom, and Hypocrisy, yet bristles with their own uniquely shadowy, narrative force. This isn't just metal for metal's sake—it's a vessel for reckoning with the darker corners of humanity and the unseen forces that shape it. "Blood Enslaved is not simply a song," explains Moonskin's vocalist. “It’s a warning. It’s an allegory of vampirism—both literal and symbolic. About those who surrender themselves to corrupted power under the guise of faith, and those corrupted by that power in return. It’s about addiction. Worship. And willful blindness.” While most of today's charts are populated with what the band calls “clickbait beats and lobotomized lyrics,” Moonskin stands in stark contrast—unafraid to wield complexity, poetry, and anger with surgical precision. “Mainstream execs might celebrate simplicity,” the band adds, “but metal has never been about dumbing it down—it’s about raising the stakes.” Formed from the eerie edges of the human psyche, Moonskin signed with Rexius Records in 2023 after releasing a string of haunting singles and an EP over the past seven years. With Blood Enslaved, they continue their descent into dark forests, ancient nightmares, and the unlit chambers of the soul. For those still seeking depth, darkness, and deliberate artistry in their metal, Moonskin’s Blood Enslaved waits in the shadows.

On May 31st, the national finals of Wacken Metal Battle Canada 2025 erupted at Vancouver’s legendary Rickshaw Theatre, where four of the country's fiercest unsigned metal bands clashed for one coveted prize: the honor of representing Canada at the world-renowned Wacken Open Air Festival in Germany (July 30th – August 2nd). With over 80,000 metal maniacs attending Wacken each year for over three decades, this is a proving ground like no other. Emerging from the wreckage as champion of champions is Hamilton, ON’s KILLOTINE, who delivered a scorched-earth performance that had both the crowd and industry judges roaring for more. Known for their all-consuming aggression and unrelenting sonic onslaught, Killotine now prepares to take their warpath to Wacken, battling against finalists from 29 other nations on the global stage. The national final saw KILLOTINE (Ontario Winner) square off with three other titans: SOULTHIEF (Ottawa, ON – Eastern Canada Winner) BEYOND SUFFERING (Calgary, AB – Alberta Winner) YEGG (Nanaimo, BC – British Columbia Winner) Fans were also treated to a headlining set from Arrow In The Quiver, last year’s BC final winner. A Word from the Organizer “What a finals we’ve just had in Vancouver. It's so nice to see the level of the bands and the great performances from all of them. The result is that we’ve got something special this year: Killotine is the chosen one. This band has a career waiting for them, and the real beginning of that journey will be at Wacken Open Air. This really enforces what the Metal Battle is all about and how we are nurturing the next generation—the future of metal,”says JJ Tartaglia, Canadian Organizer of Wacken Metal Battle Canada.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Doctor D Breaks Free from the Time Loop with Long-Lost Debut Album Title: Time LoopRelease Date: July 11, 2025Genre: Old School Black Metal / Death Metal / Speed Metal / Thrash Metal / CrustFor Fans Of: Amebix, Celtic Frost, Bathory, DischargeFormat: Digital (Self-Released)Listen: https://doctor-d.bandcamp.com After two decades lost in cosmic exile, the enigmatic cult figure Doctor D has returned from the galactic void with a vengeance. His long-buried and once-censored debut album, Time Loop, finally sees the light of Earth on July 11, 2025—a raw and relentless resurrection of old-school sonic fury. Originally recorded in 2002 under the title D-Liverance and buried by label politics, the album was left in stasis as Doctor D vanished into the mythos of the underground. Now, reanimated by a dimension-tearing time loop and the assistance of longtime collaborator Jeff Arwadi (aka Meister J), Time Loop emerges in reimagined form—a thunderous document of crust-drenched chaos and ‘80s metal nostalgia that never had its rightful place in history… until now. Doctor D's sound is a volatile hybrid of his anarcho-punk/crust roots and the earliest black and death metal chaos—laced with dungeon-synth atmospherics and driven by D-beat rhythms, chainsaw riffs, and cosmic madness. For those who revel in the raw energy of Amebix, the evil majesty of Celtic Frost, the proto-extremity of Bathory, and the unrelenting grit of Discharge, Time Loop offers a ceremonial awakening of the ancient gods of metal. About Doctor D Doctor D began his musical journey in 1996 under the name Bealiah, releasing four cult cassette-only demos through Indonesian underground label THT Productions. In 2000, he took on the moniker Doctor D and recorded his supposed debut full-length—only to have it shelved indefinitely by a label that redirected him to another band. By 2004, Doctor D vanished from the metal scene entirely—only to be rumored as entering hibernation aboard an alien Andromedan mothership. Now, awakened from his 20-year cryo-stasis, Doctor D returns to the Earth simulation, bringing with him a sonic relic that bends time itself.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Diabology Unleash Ferocious New Single “The Last of All Kings” — Featured by No Clean Singing  A massive thank you goes out to the team at No Clean Singing for shining the spotlight on the blistering new single from Metal Devastation PR clients Diabology, entitled “The Last of All Kings.” The acclaimed extreme metal blog featured the track in their latest roundup, praising Diabology for continuing their sonic evolution following the band’s critically-lauded 2022 sophomore album, Father of Serpents. The new single marks a triumphant return for the Southern California-based outfit, delivering a relentless fusion of death metal and thrash that proves Diabology’s prowess is anything but novice. In the words of No Clean Singing: “Diabology don’t have as many decades of experience as other performers in today’s collection, but you’ll figure out damned fast that they sure as hell know what they’re doing. ‘The Last of All Kings’ mounts a high-powered death-thrashing attack from the very start, with weaponry consisting of viciously vibrating riffage, neck-whipping beats, and fast-barking, wild-eyed, bleeding-raw vocals.” The review continues, praising the track’s dynamic shifts and instrumental precision: “The eviscerating riffage also segues into episodes of dismal churning and morbid misery, backed by electrifying drum fills that batter and boom... as well as doubled-up vocals for extra fury and some delicious clear-toned soloing that spirals like a spirit-creature. All in all, it’s a head-spinning and pulse-pounding experience.” Lyrically, “The Last of All Kings” is a bold declaration of rebellion — a poetic stand against corruption and tyranny. A sample of the lyrics reads: O gentries and nobles / Bow down and hear my wordThis age of fracture is over / The land is ripe for rebirthNo more will gold blind our monarchsNo more will baleful hearts reignNo more cruel condescensionFrom malfeasant men who feed off our pain With “The Last of All Kings,” Diabology continue to cement their place as a rising force in the new generation of American extreme metal.
