Battering Ram - The World Belongs To Me (30 seconds teaser)
Battering Ram - new digital single "The World Belongs To Me" out now
BATTERING RAM has been slowly brewing new music in the shadows and amidst their constant live performances. And now it’s time to finally unleash the Swedes’ new single. “The World Belongs To Me” is, as usual, a classic straightforward Battering Ram tune: hard pumpin’ metal, made from the ground, built to last.
The base was built by the guitar player Jonas Edmark and built up in the rehearsal room, with the finishing touch done in the studio. As always. The Battering Ram way, so to speak.

Advocacy Denmark - new digital single and video "Star Formation" out today!
With a setting inspired by post-apocalyptic stories; to be more specific, the time right before the Apocalypse, “Star Formation” is the new digital single from the Danish progressive metal combo ADVOCACY.
Although not specifically written from a Biblical point of view or as a comment on the current climate crisis, the song still describes an unavoidable confrontation with the life choices and bad judgment calls that might have led to this situation. However, it is also a song about finding a glimpse of light in the darkest night, even though things might never be quite the same again.

The seven-headed dragon LOTAN rises again, this time to unleash a new digital single, titled “Ashera”, from the upcoming self-titled album.

Today is the day! Silver Phantom debut album, "Crimson Cabaret" is finally out
Silver Phantom is a rock band that mixes a wide variety of subgenres to create a new, old-school vibe. The heavy riffing of hard rock and the raw energy of the punk scene from the ’70s meet the power of 80s metal. The sound is further infused with singalong choruses and the playful genre-bending of the ’90s and the '00s power rock - all merged and combined with theatrical shock rock.
The lyrical universe is drawing its inspiration from dark and dreamy horror stories across mysticism and ancient legends to the movements of the heavens, and presents you with a powerfully blended cocktail to entertain your rock’n'roll soul!
Silver Phantom gives you a different take on what rock music sounds like when it’s a unique mix of heavy rock, punk rock and power rock - all merged and combined with theatrical shock rock.
The debut album “Crimson Cabaret” was recorded and produced by Morten Madsen at Popsh*t Studio (Metal Cross, Mirage, etc) and mixed and mastered at Medley Studios by Danish rock legend Søren Andersen (Glenn Hughes, Electric Guitars, Marco Mendoza, Tygers Of Pan Tang and many more).
“Crimson Cabaret” is out today on digital, CD, and LP (black vinyl, limited to 300 units) via UPRISING! Records. Order now:

Empire Drowns - new song "Gone" out today
Nine years in the wait since the debut EP “Bridges”, the full-length studio album from Danish doomsters EMPIRE DROWNS is finally upon us. “Gone”, the new digital single from the album, takes the best doom/death metal tradition of the genre’s founders (Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and Anathema, obviously) and adds a gothic metal atmosphere, not unlike what Empire Drowns’ countrymen Saturnus did in their best albums. A deeply emotive track, intense and desperate.
