Swedish death metal combo Chugger drop new single & video  -Bleed (Reborn)!

CHUGGER is a five-piece death machine hailing from Gothenburg, Sweden. Sonically they walk the razorwired border between groove metal and death metal, expertly navigating and picking between the two. Like a bastard child of Lamb of God and Machine Head, fused with a healthy dose of old-school At The Gates, this groove death metal monster proves that the golden days of Gothenburg metal is far from over. Visually the band dips their blood stained fists in buckets filled with Rammstein, Slipknot and the horror movies we all love to hate.
On stage CHUGGER is a well oiled machine that has delivered intense performances on top stages across multiple continents all over the world, even praised by the founding father of Wacken Open Air himself. If you have the opportunity to catch them live – buckle up, kid. You’re in for a treat!

“Every track really shows what Chugger is truly capable of after years of honing their craft to the point where it’s extremely deadly to the touch.”
“Chugger is part of a terrific group of contemporary bands that keeps Sweden at the very forefront of modern metal.”
“Fits along side the likes of Lamb of God, In Flames and Arch Enemy”

The band comments on the new single: “‘Pystyyn kuollut’ is a state of mind, filled with despair. When death whispers and tells you to rest. When a solution after another are out of your reach and there is no light at the end of the tunnel. And finally – when you can see the end of the tunnel, it disapears in blink of an eye. When everything is just black. Confront your shadow on your way to the final destination – And then.. embrace it.”

(review) Jim Lindberg – Songs From The Elkhorn (Epitaph)

Jim Lindberg is otherwise more known as a singer for melodic punk hardcore legends Pennywise. While his band released one of the best records in 2018 with their last full length, toured prior to covid shit and delivered fine energetic gigs, Jim also wrote and now released his solo work way different than work with Pennywise.

This album is personal. Very personal. The music has punk rock roots of course, but it is more acoustic and has also trumpet, piano, violin and songwriting that makes your skin crawl with emotions, such as sorrow, depression and battling it, loneliness, hope, friendship, happiness and this is basically great Americana punk rock album. I also feel that Jim s voice can sing more beautiful on this solo album and deliver more fine melodies and soar than Pennywise. I also feel that he opened his heart to us with this one and I can totally relate to some of the songs like Dont Lay Me Down, Youre Not Alone and Good Enough. If you expect hardcore punk, fast and furious you will be disappointed. If you open yourself to the music and words and let the music take you to some other level, this is the right one forya.
