Deafheaven

DEAFHEAVEN.COM

Deafheaven’s music feels like a project of accrual—on each album they fill new songs with elements of what they’ve learned in their earlier experiments. You hear echoes of past recordings in the howls of the present: the sun-dappled screamo histrionics of Roads to Judah are more fully realized in Sunbather’s pastel star-scapes; New Bermuda doubles down on the heaviest elements of both of those records; Ordinary Corrupt Human Love threads together elements of the soft and the heavy into an especially epic statement. Infinite Granite, often described simply as Deafheaven’s record with mostly clean vocals, compressed it all into something strikingly solid. That was true, but there was much more to it than that; listening to Lonely People With Power, you can hear its echoes everywhere—and if you listen closely, you can find deeper ways back into it when you listen to it again... Ultimately, Lonely People is a record that is anti-loneliness. It’s about finding less harmful ways to escape: your chosen family, your community, and even magic.

The world of VOWWS has always been shrouded in mystery and darkness. That’s just the default setting of Australian-born, LA-based duo Matt James (vocals/guitars) and Rizz (vocals/keyboards). It’s how things have always been, it’s how things are, and it’s incredibly likely that that’s how they’ll always be. It should be no surprise, then, that their new album I’ll Fill Your House With An Army is suitably bleak. But don’t confuse that desolate sonic aesthetic for only being inspired by the darker things in life. There have always been glimmers and glimpses of light in their songs, whether on their 2015 full-length debut, The Great Sun or 2018’s Under The World, but the shadows have always been pretty opaque, making it hard for that light to break through. It struggles on this record, too. At the same time, however, it seems to flicker a bit brighter, and for a little longer.

“We definitely look at all the dark things in life and the world,” admits Matt. “I consider it my job to take a pretty unfiltered view of what's happening in the world, and then that goes through us and our filter, and comes back out as what whatever the music is. Lyrically, we tend not to say anything literally – there’s more of a surrealist and subversive element to it – so the world definitely looks like there's something wrong with it throughout our music and our worldview, but there's also definitely a beauty and an optimism in there as well. We try and find beauty in a lot of things, and try to present that in the framework of a broken world – whether that's an internal one or an external one.”

That conflation of internal and external worlds is what has always given VOWWS their unique and distinctive edge. Because rather than staring into the abyss, they’re already in it, staring outwards, waiting for the doom to catch up to them rather than trying to avoid it. That combination of harrowing, heartfelt and hopeful – all three dancing seductively with each other – has garnered the duo plenty of attention since their inception. Early single “Losing Myself In You” featured, and was co-written with, nu-wave legend Gary Numan, a remix of Under The World’s “Structure Of Love” featured guest vocals from Deftones’ Chino Moreno, and 2022 single “WAIT” saw Chelsea Wolfe add her voice to the mix. Korn, A Perfect Circle and Billy Corgan also count themselves as fans, and the pair headed our with Alice In Chains founder and guitarist Jerry Cantrell on a UK and European tour.

It’s an exciting flurry of activity that comes after what James admits was a “painful” period of time following the release of that second album. Because not too long after its release, of course, the world came to a standstill. As it did for most people – as well as most bands – it had a profound effect on VOWWS. Not only did the band not play any shows for two years – “Our first show back was with Deftones on the tour with them,” remembers Matt, “and I was terrified, because I just thought ‘I can't be sure that I can actually do this anymore.’” – but the extended period of time off caused them to reshape and rethink the new music they’d been working on. By 2022 they had made a full 20-track record, but they weren’t happy with it, so went back to the drawing board.
“Rizz is like the canary in the coalmine for us,” explains Matt. “She can't kid herself into feeling good about something she doesn't feel good about, whereas I can. So, frustratingly for me, she was like 'This isn't good enough.' I wanted to just mix it a bit more and paper over the cracks, but she was like 'No, it's already been this long, it doesn't matter if it takes a bit longer.'”

And so the band enlisted the help of A Perfect Circle’s Billy Howerdel, and they started crafting what would eventually become I’ll Fill Your House With An Army. Rizz was right. From the moment the album begins with the dour insistent march of “Blood’s On Fire”, it’s clear that it was well worth the extra time. The song – which features Josh Freese behind the drum kit – is a tug of war between lightness and darkness, Rizz and Matt’s vocals pulling each other both further into that void while also trying to not get swallowed whole by it. That conflict rages across the record’s 11 tracks, whether that’s on the gloomy, creepy snarl of “SHUDDER” (which, along with “Silhouette” and “Re-Animator”, also has Freese on drums, and features Korn guitarist James ‘Munky’ Shaffer), the stark, ice-cold emotion of “Pulls Me Apart” or the tender, dreamy tumble of “Hurt You”. Despite the push and pull nature of these songs, though, those extremes exist within each other, forever entwined, never quite separate. Listen, for instance, to how “Re-Animator” soars in its second half as it attempts to escape itself, to how “Casualty” flits between intense, Vantablack grooves and sun-filled ethereal soundscapes, to how the haunted love of “I Never Left” – possibly the most vulnerable, tender song the band have ever committed to tape – swerves between eerie and soothing, beautiful and barren, demonic and sweet.

That VOWWS did decide, in the end, to take their time with this album, only ended up serving them – and the record – incredibly well. Though racked with self-doubt and uncertainty about everything, the pair pushed through the darkness and emerged if not entirely in the light, then at least with it glowing in the distance. Of course, it wouldn’t be VOWWS if it remained within reach, and as “Waterline” – an unsettling, demonic slow dance of a finale – comes to an end, it fades gently but powerfully, trapping the listener in the void, proving that the hard work and the long slog and battle against themselves were all worth it, and ultimately resulted in a better record.
“We're proud of ourselves for getting there – and having the faith to get there in the end,” says Matt, “because there was a lot of doubt. But pushing through that doubt was fully part of the process. We both just care about this more than anything else, because we think it's important. We think it's something special and we want to share it with the world. But we also want to create a world that people can't get anywhere else, and bring them into it – and lose ourselves in it, too. It's kind of holistic if you do it right, I think.”

One listen to I’ll Fill Your House With An Army and it’s clear that VOWWS have, indeed, done it right. One listen and you’re immediately drawn into their world, left gasping for air, left overwhelmed by its force. And though you probably know you should escape, you’re also very happy being lost there, letting your eyes adjust to those brief, bright moments of light, because you finally realise that it’s your world, too, and there’s so much comfort in that.

Soen

SOEN emerged from the shadows of Sweden’s progressive metal scene, not with a whisper but with an uncompromising clarity and resolve. Born from the vision of drummer Martin Lopez, previously known for his tenure with the iconic Opeth, and the introspective voice of vocalist Joel Ekelöf, SOEN swiftly carved out a unique identity, their debut album Cognitive (2012) immediately establishing them as a formidable presence.

Their sound is complex yet deeply human, woven together by intricate rhythms, nuanced melodies, and a lyrical depth that demands introspection. The band’s lineup soon solidified, anchored by the versatile multi-instrumentalist Lars Enok Åhlund, guitarist Cody Lee Ford, and the steadfast rhythms of bassist Stefan Stenberg. Over the years, former members such as guitarist Kim Platbarzdis, guitarist Marcus Jidell, and bassist Zlatoyar have also left indelible marks, contributing significantly to the band’s sound and evolution.

Aus dem einstigen Traum von fünf Schülern aus dem nordrhein-westfälischen Rheinberg ist mittlerweile eine verschworene Gemeinschaft geworden, eine Gemeinschaft die bereit ist den nächsten Schritt zu gehen. Nach dem Einstieg in die Top 10 der deutschen Charts gingen die fünf ihren Weg immer weiter und begeistern mittlerweile in großen Hallen immer mehr Fans ihrer Musik. Mit dem neuen Werk »Revolution« geht man in ein neues Kapitel der Bandgeschichte. Gefestigt und mit klarer Vorstellung, wohin der Weg sie führt! Die perfekte Mischung aus Punkrock und Metal, die es in Deutschland nur in dieser einzigartigen Form gibt.

Was wie ein Übernacht-Erfolg klingt, ist allerdings das Ergebnis harter Arbeit, und vor allem der Glaube an die Möglichkeit, mit eigenständiger Musik und kritischen Texten ein, nein, besser SEIN eigenes Publikum zu erreichen. „Am Anfang mussten wir selbst noch viel lernen“, gibt Vohwinkel zu. Warum sollte es auch anders sein? Wenn fünf Freunde eine Band gründen wollen, ohne irgendwelche Instrumente zu beherrschen, bietet sich nur eine Musikrichtung an: Punkrock.

Wer sich in dieser aufregenden Zeit um 1990 herum zum Ziel setzt, eine Band zu gründen, hat nicht nur Vorteile. Auch wenn es fast 20 Jahre dauert, bis BETONTOD aus ihrer Leidenschaft eine Profession gemacht haben – das Ergebnis spricht für sich. Wer in Eigenregie über 1000 Konzerte organisiert, 7 Studio- und 3 Live-Alben veröffentlicht hat, der macht viel richtig. Wer als Punkband zweimal auf dem größten Metal-Festival der Welt in Wacken gespielt hat, der hat genug Selbstbewusstsein, um den Nachfolger eines Top 10-Albums anzugehen und den nächsten Schritt zu machen. „Wir haben uns auf das besonnen was uns ausmacht“, erklärt Vohwinkel die neue Marschrichtung, „ehrliche gerade Musik.“ Beim letzten Album »Traum von Freiheit«, das im Februar 2015 erschienen ist, gibt es mit Vincent Sorg (DIE TOTEN HOSEN, IN EXTREMO, DONOTS u.a.) und Fabian Zimmermann die altbekannten Produzenten. Und diese vertraute Umgebung ließ »Revolution« zum reifsten Album der Rheinberger werden.

Der Weg Einer Freiheit + Au Dessus + The Devil’s Trade

With Innern, their sixth studio album, DER WEG EINER FREIHEIT return with their most introspective and compositionally expansive work to date. A meditation on suffering, transformation, and the fragile thresholds of the human psyche, Innern refines the band’s signature blend of black metal intensity and post-metal atmosphere. The title, German for “inward”, anchors the album’s conceptual weight: a turning away from the external, into a realm of personal reckoning, silence, and renewal. Across six meticulously crafted tracks, the band explores cycles of disintegration and emergence, inviting listeners to confront the deep and often contradictory nature of existence itself.

DER WEG EINER FREIHEIT stand now at the peak of a fifteen-year evolution. Their music is as concerned with silence as it is with sound, as shaped by introspection as by fury. As they prepare to bring Innern to European stages in autumn 2025, they do so not as provocateurs of extremity, but as artists navigating the fragile space between collapse and clarity. In a genre often defined by spectacle, DER WEG EINER FREIHEIT remain committed to vulnerability, transformation, and truth.

Trollfest

One weekend in 2003, in Oslo, Norway, a bunch of goons became bored with the selection of party music that was available to them, and, helped along by the consumption of large quantities of alcohol, the soon-to-be members of TrollfesT decided to take matters into their own hands. One website and six songs later, a German label, which at the time was called Solistium, recognised the potential in the madness and got in touch. With the immortal words “what the heck, let’s give it a go” TrollfesT agreed to a deal and started writing new material. By 2005 “Willkommen Folk tell Drekka Fest!!” hit the streets. And life as we know it was never the same again.

Containing a selection of sounds and comments, many of which you would not necessary come across if you only frequented polite parties, “Willkommen…” displayed some unique qualities that caught people’s attention and consequently sold rather a lot of copies, so a deal for a second album was signed and in 2006 the story of Brakebein the Troll was released. “Brakebein” (not a bad choice for a title really given its subject matter), appeared in two versions - one that included a cartoon illustrating Brakebein’s voyage, and the other that included the lyrics.

During the first years, TrollfesT never actually played live, but nevertheless the two albums succeeded in making the band a sought after addition to festivals, and the first foray beyond the planning stage occurred in 2007 as one of the headlining bands at the Ninth Barther Metal Open Air Festival. TrollfesT then went on to headline and play various festivals and concerts around Europe during 2007/08 including the Ragnarök and Riedfest festivals.

January 2009 saw the release of TrollfesT’s third studio album “Villanden”. A much-anticipated underground album according to feedback from the fans, “Villanden” was quickly acknowledged as one of the craziest albums to have been released in a very long time, mixing, as it did, European Balkan music with extreme metal, and spread rapidly through the viral networks like YouTube, MySpace and Facebook.

So how would anyone, in their right mind, or otherwise, dare to define TrollfesT? The closest you would come is probably True Norwegian Balkan Black Metal, but even then you would need to include influences from lots more genres. The best way to put it is that this band is all about alcohol, joy and music, three subjects that draw in fans from all ages and genres, eager to listen to TrollfesT’s records and witness the exuberant and skilled live performances.

Testament

The time has arrived for TESTAMENT to unleash new thunder to the masses and reveal their thirteenth studio album: Titans OF Creation. Just as the elements of this planet thrive within all living creatures, each musician in TESTAMENT represents a necessary component of this latest musical endeavor. Still filled with a massive and unstoppable energy since their last release, TESTAMENT has taken their style to the next level and present an album that is loyal to the roots of traditional thrash metal while still bringing alluring, brilliant, and progressive ingredients to the table. Bass is showcased, new vocals are introduced, and as expected, the guitarwork of Peterson and Skolnick is greatly complex and mesmerizing.

Eliran Kantor stepped up once again to create a new piece of artwork for the cover of this release. His classic, almost Renaissance style of painting melds beautifully with the ancient, psychological, and enlightened subject matter of the songs. Three monstrous titans stand in the place where the planets are formed. One pours molding liquid which the others hammer into human DNA, twisting and turning into the ring of a newborn planet. Each titan has the flame of a dying star burning in their chest; the origin of the atoms making up the bodies that are bubbling and boiling on the curves of the spiraling helix.

Titans OF Creation has many moods and material contained within; all of which somehow tie into a common philosophy of creation and its necessary counterpart: destruction. “Children Of The Next Level” smashes through the gates as the opening track with a flood of sound that prepares the listener for an abundance of violent thrash. Meanwhile, the lyrics rage about the outrageous philosophies of the Heaven’s Gate cult (founded in 1974).

Songs like “Dream Deceiver” carry more old school sound that will tickle the senses of any common TESTAMENT fan. The lyrics describe being trapped in a dream by an otherworldly female force who is slowly working to degrade the mind. Dreams are part of existence, but when we are asleep we are entirely vulnerable; one of the many mysteries of being human. “Someone’s haunting you and won’t leave you alone; the only time they pick at you is at night when they can control the way you sleep,” describes vocalist Chuck Billy.

“Night of the Witch” features frightening and captivating vocals from Eric Peterson. Carrying a vibe far more akin to Black Metal, Peterson swoops in with a power that melds perfectly with Billy’s ground shaking, guttural growls. Taking some influence from Robert Egger’s 2015 horror masterpiece “The VVitch: A New England Folktale,” the song carries with it a magical quality that directly reflects the mood of the film. At the very end of the track, a theremin howls through the air much like witches rising towards the moon; setting the final tone. “The album has a lot about it that’s fresh to the ear,” explains Peterson.

Written by guitarist Alex Skolnick, “Symptoms” is filled with detailed with intricate guitar work that well represents the complicated and spellbinding journey that comes along with handling depression, mood swings, and a countless list of mental health frustrations. The lyrics in this song discuss a sad truth: that mental illness is more common than we all think, and than many of us are willing to acknowledge. On a lighter note, a vibrant track entitled “The Healers” swings back and forth between waves of death and thrash, heavy and melodic, light and dark. The words are spiritual, and extremely personal. They describe Billy’s own experience dealing with all natural medicine men; the elders of the earth, and how they managed to help him pinpoint and heal his past illness. “City Of Angels” comes bearing an entirely new sound for TESTAMENT. The creeping sludgieness and slow, stalking tempo, walk hand in hand with the almost unbelievably gruesome tale of the Nightstalker Richard Ramierz, all combining to form another stand-out track on the record.

In 2020 the days of writing an album all together in one room are far gone, but to be able to take advantage of technology allows for TESTAMENT to go about a very similar writing process to what they always have. Basic songs are molded, structures are added by everyone in the group, instrumentals are highlighted, and finally the lyrics and vocals are created to finalize the sonic story. Facetime and human on human contact still remain crucial elements to TESTAMENT’s song writing process and at some point throughout, every member physically interacts and writes with one another. In between writing this album, the band toured relentlessly which allowed for less stress, more time in between, and greater inspiration for this album cycle. There was also plenty of anxiety-free and level-headed time for pre-production and the initial recording process with Juan Urteaga of Trident Studios. Andy Sneap was then able to tweak, mix, and master this album to his usual perfection.

TESTAMENT’s process of creation has evolved and progressed yet they’ve remained steadfast over the course of literal decades. While always managing to present the genuine aspects of thrash metal that solidify their existence, they spread into unique horizons through developing crisp and fascinating sounds.

Gegründet Ende 2014, gehören ERDLING mittlerweile zur Speerspitze der deutschen Dark-Rock-Szene. Die 2015 veröffentlichte Debütsingle "Blitz und Donner" zählt hunderttausende Klicks auf YouTube und zählt inzwischen zu den beliebtesten NDH/Darkrock-Songs der Szene - kein Wunder, dass das erste Album "Aus den Tiefen" direkt auf Platz 64 der Deutschen Album Charts einstieg. Es folgten Auftritte bei renommierten Festivals wie das "M'era Luna" und dem "Summer Breeze", auf denen die Band ihre Livequalitäten mit Bravour unter Beweis stellen konnte. Auch Support-Tourneen mit Megaherz, Unzucht und Hämatom manifestierte einmal mehr die Position der Senkrechtstarter um Sänger und Gitarrist Neill Freiwald. Anfang 2017 veröffentlichten ERDLING den zweiten Langspieler "Supernova", welcher in den Charts eine noch höhere Position erklimmen konnte - die erste Headlinertour bestritten ERDLING mit teilweise ausverkauften Clubs.

Zur Zeit arbeiten ERDLING an ihrem dritten Tonträger.
