HUMAN DECEPTION Are Back With “Altar Ov Madness” Featuring Defamed (ffo Whitechapel, Thy Art Is Murder)

After a sequence of noteworthy live performances which saw them supporting bands of the international Deathcore scene as Shadow Of Intent, To The Grave, Enterprise Earth, Angelmaker, Sign Of The Swarm and Humanity Last breath, HUMAN DECEPTION conclude a rich 2023 by releasing a single shoulder to shoulder with an established reality of the Italian Core scene, nothing less than Defamed. The track “Altar Ov Madness” is available now in all digital platforms in partnership with Superbia Music Group.

“The new track confirmed an already proven formula of epic orchestras and melodic guitar riffs with a technical drum sound mixed with blast beats that blended in an unmistakable Human Deception style: this will add esoteric and mysterious vibes to the listeners ears. The choice of Mattia Maffioli and Simone Verde as vocals guests has been a winning weapon. The Defamed guys know what they’re doing and it shows, the duet will season the song with their voices, enriching the sound with the right violence, which is requested in the genre. Despite the presence of 3 singers, everything is very distinguishable, creating an interchange of style of growls and screams. Talking about the meaning of the track, the text is inspired by the first chapters of the famous 1600 poem written by John Milton which tells of the fall of Adam and Eve, expelled from paradise deceived by the snake. The topic is a very fitting choice since the band made out of “deception” its name and banner. The Human Deception guys are keen to let their audience know that they have a lot of new music in store for 2024, just waiting for the right moment to be given to their fans but also to those who don’t know them yet. They are sure of the path they want follow and have no intention to stop. We’ll wait with trepidation to see what else these Humans have in store”.

“Altar Ov Madness” was recorded, co-produced, sound design, mixed and mastered by Jarno Bellasio at Theorem Studio, video directed by Matteo Alemanno.

MAKE IT SIMPLE Release New Single “Get Back”!

Italian metalcore act MAKE IT SIMPLE have released a new single called “Get Back”, available now in all digital platform in partnership with WAR Music Management.

The main theme of the track – with Andrea Fusini – Fusix Studio and Robin Zacconi – Winter Mourning Studio at recording, mix and master – it’s a sort of rebirth after a difficult phase between depression and suicidal thoughts: “We started to work  on this track a while ago, we were waiting the right moment to release it. Our songs and their meanings are connected by a thread, putting together our influences, from NuMetal to Metalcore and a mix of Pop melodies. ‘Get Back’ was the best track to represent our moment as a band, this song talks about a rebirth, about the end of an eternal fight against suicidal thoughts and depression, after years in the dark we have the strength to get back everything that life took from us. We’re working on new projects in a determined way, we want to send a specific message and soon you’ll know what is it about”.

(review) Shutdown – ‘Still…Against All Odds'(Equal Vision Records)

NYHC nineties old school champions Shutdown are back with new release! This one contains five songs of old school fast and groovy hardcore like it was done in the nineties and my personal favorite on this one is ‘We Won’t Forget’ featuring guest performance by none other than Sick Of It All’s Craig Setari. This is all about old school. Fast drumming, hardcore anthems, shouted and screamed vocals, great lyrics and hardcore played from the heart for hardcore hearts out there. This one really made my skin crawl with goosebumps and hardcore heart beat faster with every song that I listened to on this one, wishing there are more. Who knows, perhaps there will be new full length album some time in the future. In the meantime, check this one out and I would love to witness this band play live, I am sure they are a blast!
