Danish metal band STEELBOURNE sign with Wormholedeath for the reissue of ‘A Tale As Old As Time’!

Leave a comment

Danish Metal Band STEELBOURNE have signed with Wormholedeath a licensing deal for the reissue of their album “A Tale As Old As Time”, due for re-release on April 29th, 2022 worldwide.

Steelbourne stated, “We are beyond excited to initiate a joint adventure with WHD and look forward to introducing the world to our classic heavy metal, with a contemporary twist. We are confident that the WHD team consists of rock stars who can help us take the Steelbourne name to the next level. A Tale as Old as Time was written and recorded at home, first and foremost for us (the band), but with the reception we have received so far, we simply have to share it with more people. Carlo and the team have our complete trust in this endeavor.”

“A Tale As Old As Time”
The album itself is classic metal at its best, inspired by giants such as Maiden, Priest, Helloween, Accept, Primal Fear, Candlemass and many more.
We do, however, trust that you can hear the originality in the 7 tracks, which all tell their own unique story – thematically poking at religious events throughout history. We are extremely proud of this album and are excited for the future together with WHD.

With several releases and a plethora of gigs to their name from previous constellations, Steelbourne set out to conquer new land for danish metal and prove that the new generation still writes classics!

Steelbourne was initially a lockdown studio-project, designed to finish unreleased material by their previous band. As the writing escalated, the foundation for “A tale as old as time” was built – and a single spark reignited inferno. Steelbourne honor the legends of old, being deeply inspired by giants such as Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Candlemass and Accept while incorporating contemporary elements into their music, aiming to provide a modern take on classic heavy metal.
Having played large venues both domestically and internationally, the band is no stranger to touring life either, looking forward to getting back on the road.

Steelbourne are:
Jacob Vestergaard Druedahl Bruun – Guitars
Troels Rasmussen – Lead Vocals
Benjamin Andreassen – Bass-guitar, Backing vocals
Simon Klem Kannegaard – Guitars
Simon Sorsback – Drums & Backing vocals

Swiss post-doom trio Kalkas premiered new official music video ‘Au milieu du feu, il est leur guide’.

Leave a comment

Naturalistic Post-doom – including stoner and psych-rock elements – trio from Lausane and emerging from the amazing Swiss scene in 2019, Kalkas is about to release its debut full-length album called ‘Envoûtante sève’ and planned on LP & Digital on April 8th through Table Basse Records.

 In the meantime, the band just premiered a first glance from this forthcoming album with the official music video of “Au milieu du feu, il est leur guide” available right now on YouTube.

Beyond its musical dimension, Kalkas develops a conceptual universe around issues related to climate change and the anger this causes among the various members of the band.

In a romantic and dualistic approach, with some points of naturalistic contemplation, this album offers a first dive into the subdued atmosphere of a dark autumnal and forest mist. To a sound saturated with existential angst, the instruments respond to the call of Kalkas, a deep entity with a vague design for our humanities.

Punctuated with narrative and poetic vocal passages, the album ‘Envoûtante Sève’ offers a first vision of this new world, under construction.

Polish Groove/Thrash Metal Band DECEADED Sign With Wormholedeath!

Leave a comment

Polish Groove/Thrash Metal quartet DECEADED have signed a licensing deal with Wormholedeath for their album “The Sole Destroyer”, due for release on April 22nd, 2022 worldwide.

Signing statement
Every dream has its beginning, has its end, it needs time, mistakes, action and does not come true right away. You go step by step, achieving smaller goals leading to bigger ones. Today, we would like to proudly announce the achievement of just a major one. Deceaded have signed contract with Italian label Wormholedeath. The Sole Destroyer has been given the unique opportunity to spread around the world via The Orchard Inc. / Sony Music Ent. Now, the story begins.

“The Sole Destroyer”
First album of the band, The Sole Destroyer is the essence of anger and frustration, it’s aggressive, loud and straightforward. Hard and melodic riffs, groovy drum beats, punchy bass lines, expressive and complex vocals make The Sole Destroyer an authentic experience. Lyrics focus on disaster, stupidity and mistakes of human race. It also warn about future of the planet and consequences of our behaviour as society. 

Deceaded is a Polish band established in 2017. After almost 4 years the band saw the light of day with their single “The Edge” promoting their debut album titled “The Sole Destroyer”, containing elements of thrash, nu, groove and alternative metal. It’s pure energy, full of anger, frustration and hope – a four piece machine ready to show you the metal’s genuine essence. Hard and melodic riffs, groovy drum beats, punchy bass lines, expressive and complex vocals – that’s Deceaded. Their power lies in their age, huge amounts of energy, strength, ideas, and anger. All these elements give an extraordinary sense of authenticity to what the band represents. And they have a lot to share. Their live performances are full of raw energy, at times almost theatrical, described by some as performances resembling “American like concerts”. The band’s outfits, music, lyrics and aesthetics create a remarkably cohesive and compelling story, as evident on “The Sole Destroyer” debut album, which also leaves plenty of room for continuation. We are prisoners of the broken system as the entire human race, but we are sick of it.

We’re going to spread our truth as widely as we can.
If you are sick of this world, as much as we are…Our story may interest you.
