Nizozemske black metalke Asagraum predstavljajo nov single Impure Fire, ki se bo nahajal na njihovem prihajajočem albumu Veil of Death, Ruptured, katerega izid so napovedale za oktober pri Edged Circle Productions.

Heavy metal legende W.A.S.P., ki smo jih lahko pred nedavnim ujeli na enem izmed naših odrov, sporočajo, da bo nov album luč sveta ugledal poleti naslednje leto. To je pred kratkim v intervjuju za radijsko oddajo The Five Count radio show potrdil vodja zasedbe Blackie Lawless.

»From the time the U.S. tour ended [last December], we went straight back in the studio and we were working really hard to try to get it ready for August of this year, but it's just not gonna happen. It's one of those kinds of things that… I think we've got a big fish on the hook, and I don't wanna let it go before it's ready. I was talking to the guy that does the mixing for our records yesterday, and he asked me what I thought. And I said the best I could tell him would be spring of next year that we'll be ready for him. So if he starts in the spring, that means the soonest it would be ready would be summer.«

»It is with great honor and joy that I inform you that Morost has signed a contract with the German metal label TeufelsZeug Records.

We first met at Kaltenbach Open Air 2022, where a windy storm got us all in a bit of trouble. Seeing T-shirts flying around the merch stand, we helped each other out and a few hours later we were already talking over beer. Some meetings and calls later, we can finally announce the signing of a contract.«
