Bankrupt have released a lyric video for their new high-energy sci-fi themed punk rock song Astrolena, which they recommend to fans of Mean Jeans, Bad Nerves and the Epoxies. The song is about an intergalactic love story during an alien invasion. Its lyrics also resonate with the general disillusionment over the political situation in Hungary.
This is the band’s first new single since last year’s The Plane To Toronto. The track will be available on Spotify and all digital streaming platforms from 29 Apr.
Wrath Of The Nebula are hailing from France and being relatively new band in the scene, formed in 2018, but its members are in no way new, having played in so many bands and projects of extreme music scene in France and abroad. Anyway, this is the debut full length opus of this entity, and it contains intro plus eleven songs. Wrath Of The Nebula play fantastic mixture of melodic death metal with lots of sympho parts involving keyboards and atmospheric parts, but also thrash and fast parts with aggression giving more way and expression to melody with awesome vocals bordering from growling, screams to superb harsh melodic and clean vocals fitting perfectly to the songs. Musicianship is phenomenal and the whole vibe of the record takes me to some other frightening yet eye opening dimension. Theme of the lyrics is more existential, space and continuum oriented, from ancient cultures to aliens and space. Songs like DNA Of The Gods(watch the video), When Galaxies Collide or Fractal Dimensions are my personal favorites but listen because with every listening you will find something more and interesting and that is the true beauty and relevance of this opus.
Greece has always been a Mediterranean country with vast and beautiful black and death metal scene with so many original and great bands coming to mind immediately, their unique music put Greece on a map of world extreme music scene and Mind Erasure is one of the bands from that country that will certainly help put Greece to the front even more. This is the debut full length opus and it contains 11 songs. Mind Erasure play epic and at times raw black metal with some thrash and death metal parts thrown in the songs. From the atmospheric intro of Proem and aggressive death black of Pray For Salvation, real jewels come afterwards. One of my personal favorites is beautiful epic, almost symphonic Azrael with all those clean vocal parts, epic synth and quire background and that Greek trademark mid tempo which turns into beating thrash last part of the song. I must also mention as my favorite the trilogy of songs at the end of the album with title As Firs Light Never Comes, those being Seal´s Break, Apocalypse and Life´s Epilogue, great symphony of melody and darkness. This is an excellent album, a real little dark jewel in the crown of mighty Greek scene.
