WOLVES OF HADES, ALERTA ANTIFASCISTA & DARKWOORDS are thrilled to announce that on October 28th, the second full-length ‘ANCESTRAL CULT’ by ARDE, shall be unleased.

This 37-minute epic opus is dedicated to ancient cults about goddesses and the female figure which holds a central place in many ancestral cultures.

BIOGRAPHY

The genesis of ARDE extends back to the year 2017 in Berlin, Germany. Essentially aiming at a sound which applied inspirations extending through the D-Beat/Crust sonic ranges. Momentarily the collective brought forth a different pallet of influences, predominantly from the further atmospheric and dense realms of Black Metal. With the 2018’s self-titled debut recording, ARDE inflicted a mass of ravishing Black Metal into this dying world as the impending doom of our creation is projected unto us day by day. As the dark veil of the current pandemic spread its vicious tentacles, the German collective handled its lockdown by focusing on the writing of a new tome. Which became ‘ANCESTRAL CULT’.

Released on Tape and Vinyl through WOLVES OF HADES in conspiracy with ALERTA ANTIFASCISTA and CD through DARKWOORDS. Experience and nourish the magic, the light and the shadow, the sacred healing nature of our Mother Goddesses on an all-out epic journey of Black Metal ecstasy.

Ben Blutzukker – released new song Autumn Rains (Sherlock Holmes Tribute)

https://www.youtube.com/c/BenBlutzukker/videos

A few days ago marked the beginning of autumn and therefore the ideal date to present my song “Autumn Rains”.

This time I worked through the most famous Sherlock Holmes novel “The Hound of the Baskervilles”. In the song I let the thoughts of the only person without their own spoken passages have their say: Selden, the Notting Hill murderer!

The cover artwork is based on the 1959 film adaptation of the novel.

Following on from the band’s feature length debut – “How To Live & How To Lose” – five piece pop-punk/metalcore band Octopus Montage follow up with the “Voices: Versions” EP – dedicated to the breakout single from the album, which aims to showcase Octopus Montage‘s immeasurable creative capacity through different renditions of one of the group’s most successful tracks, including the original version of the song, an EDM remix and an acoustic rendition.

Premiered by Slipknot’s Knotfest, “Voices” quickly became a fan favourite, amassing over half a million streams on Spotify at the time of writing. The original song, of which opens the EP, is a perfect blend of demonic, screamed verses and breakdowns with catchy melodic, choruses.

The second track of the EP, an acoustic version of the song, couldn’t be further from the original if it tried. “Voices – Stripped” really catches the emotional side of this song, with all clean vocals and a lower tempo putting the listener into the vulnerable state in which the song was written.

The third and final song on the EP is a remix of the original song from American EDM producer BVLVNCE, who takes the breakout track and brings it up several notches; the electronics increase the energy of the essence of the song, while maintaining the heaviness with the harsh vocals and the breakdown. This rendition closes out the EP, really giving the impression that “Voices: Versions” has come full circle with Octopus Montage having pushed the song into multiple different life forms. The remix is perfect for metalheads who want to add a bit of spice to their party playlist. Its force is insurmountable, pushing the quintet’s unique sound to different limits. This fiery remix of the single will surely compel listeners of varying music tastes, as well as existing fans of the group.

With this release, Octopus Montage is proving they are one of the most innovative forces in metal today with their versatile sound and creative capacity, as the quintet is only beginning their takeover of the rock and metal scene.
