We’re beyond excited to announce the upcoming debut full-length release from the Bay Area’s own DOOMSDAY. “Never Known Peace” will be released March 28th, 2025. Check out the debut single “The Outlaw” streaming everywhere now! Preorders for the LP/CD are live now at creatordestructor.com

Never Known Peace was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Zack Ohren at Sharkbite Studios (Machine Head, Suffocation, All Shall Perish, Iron Front), and features guest solos on “Holy Justice” and “Remnants Of Spite” by Andrew Lee (Ripped To Shreds). The record is completed with cover artwork by Spencer Davie, layout by Isaiah Castillo, and photography by Chris Johnston. Fans of Nuclear Assault, Power Trip, Exodus, Enforced, Municipal Waste, Testament, early-Metallica, DOOMSDAY’s Never Known Peace is a must-hear record.

Formed in 2018 by members from different parts of the Bay Area metal and hardcore scene, DOOMSDAY delivers a crushing brew of crossover/thrash with divebomb-fueled intensity. Following several demos, singles and shows throughout the Bay Area and beyond, the band entered the international spotlight with the 2022 release of their Depictions Of Chaos EP. DOOMSDAY toured across the West Coast with Upon Stone, Extinguish, Mutually Assured Destruction, Darkness Everywhere, and more, honing their already deadly craft to incinerating new levels of precision and aggression.

Now, DOOMSDAY is finally prepared to unleash their devastating debut LP “Never Known Peace”, an absolutely uncompromising record which sees the band further embracing their thrash metal and crossover influences in ten ripping tracks that surge with the energy of the thrash-metal bedrock that lines their Bay Area hometown like it’s 1986.

Never Known Peace Track Listing:

1. Death Is Here
2. The Outlaw
3. Eternal Tombs
4. Killing Fields
5. Pain Dweller
6. Extinction’s Hymn
7. Never Known Peace
8. Everyday War
9. Holy Justice
10. Remnants Of Spite

Richmond, Virginia-based death metal quintet BLAZING TOMB have released a brand new EP, “Singles From The Tomb”, out now and streaming everywhere!

BLAZING TOMB appeared on the radar of extreme music fans upon the release of their eponymous debut EP in 2022 via Creator-Destructor. Having honed their attack over the past several years, their second release hits with more devastation than its predecessor. Singles From The Tomb delivers three merciless new tracks, infusing an old-school death metal assault reminiscent of Bolt Thrower, Grave, and Cannibal Co**se fueled with the aggression of Merauder, Cold As Life, and 100 Demons.

BLAZING TOMB’s Singles From The Tomb was engineered, produced, and mixed at Soul Craft Audio by Jordan Faett (Mutually Assured Destruction, Evade, Killing Pace), co-produced by Alex Young, mastered by Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Cavalera Conspiracy, Tomb Mold), and completed with artwork by .power__, and the track “Tortured Minds” features guest vocals on by Knox Colby (Enforced).

In May of this year Creator-Destructor Records released "To Conquer Eternal Damnation," the debut album of Darkness Everywhere from Oakland, California. Today we present a review by DGR, who identifies the band's influences from the standout melodic death metal groups of the late ’90s and early ’00s, but also finds the album kinetically propulsive, punchy, razor-sharp, and so professionally accomplished that it sounds like a group deep into their career instead of one presenting their full-length debut. Find the full review and all the music via the comment link below. The fantastic cover art is by Nightjar art of Adam Burke.
