Italian hardcore band Total Recall are finally releasing today their first studio album entitled Always Together via the Australian label 1054 Records.

Always Together has been recorded at the SPVN Studio, under the supervision of producer Stefano “Orkid” SantiCripple Bastards, Forgotten Tomb, Hiss from the Moat -.

The record is made up of 9 tracks of condensed powerful energy ready to explode, that will make you want to headbang, scream and mosh with your friends.

Stef, guitarist, declares: “Hey folks. our debut album is officially out now and forever. We have waited almost one year and a half to share these 9 jams with all of you. We worked harder, played harder thinking of our fallen brother Massi. Thanks to Peter at 1054 Records and Rising Nemesis Records for unleashing it to the world. If you like downtuned metallic riffage, this one’s for you!

In the previous months, the album was anticipated by the release of two singles, Poison Flow and Seas Of Illusion, in rotation worldwide on radio stations and Spotify playlists.

The performance videos demonstrate how Total Recall are able to bring raw and raging energy on stage, ready to mesmerize the audience.

Always Together is a sonic wrecking ball that will leave you bloodied and beaten, yet utterly exhilarated. An uncompromising collection of chunky, metallic, machine-gunning riffs, groovy bass and the hardest of post-hardcore sensibilities. A fitting antidote to all those annoying smiley summer tunes.The Razors Edge

Fleshtorture release their new onslaught of death metal, Grotesca Doctrina De La Perversidad, through Brute! Productions

d0f534f6-c0e8-3740-e6f1-53cd435364b7

Thirteen years since their debut album, Physical And Mental Intensity By The Torture, first snared the attention of their now long term label, Brute! Productions, Nicaragua’s Fleshtorture have unveiled the album of their tempestuous career. An enraged assault upon the bastions of religious doctrine, Grotesca Doctrina De La Perversidad (Grotesque Doctrine of Perversity) is death metal personified – its blasphemous battalion of songs a formidable force, armed to the teeth with god slaying riffs and blast beats with the power to hammer down the gates of heaven.

Ever present members, bassist Hanry Cano, drummer Rudy Wolf and vocalist Xhugore are joined by guitarists Lenin Galo and René Schock on the first new full length release from Fleshtorture in a decade. Their musicianship and song writing skills have reached new levels as the years have passed which has enabled them to return with an album whose accomplished consistency is staggering. The songs range from all out, vehement high velocity strikes like ‘Flagelando Almesías (Flogging The Messiah)’ to surging, heavily armoured brutes like ‘Tumba De Niños (Children’s Tomb)’ – and every one of them is laced with venomous atmosphere and hides moments of wicked exhilaration within their terrifying blackened depths. An extra degree of impact has been assured by the mixing and mastering skills of Chris Wisco (Jungle Rot, November’s Doom, Origin etc) and the artwork of John Quevedo Janssens (Those Who Bring The Torture, Sinister etc) ensures that Grotesca Doctrina… looks as glorious in its magnificent damnation as it sounds.

Allied once more with Brute! Productions, champions of the underground, Fleshtorture are prepared to cast down deceitful deities and plant their standard of war in the suppurating flesh of death metal’s ever living corpse. No death metal fan can afford to pass this album by; Grotesca Doctrina De La Perversidad is relentless, unstoppable and quite unmissable.
