Belgian “zen metal” band TIM’S FAVOURITE comes with new single, new music video. Full new album ‘amaConda’ will be released on January 16^th 2024

It took a bit longer than expected, but 2 years after the first single, “A Deeper Advantage”, Tim’s Favourite are finally ready to unleash their fourth full album, ‘amaConda’, upon the world. As a teaser, the title track “amaConda” and an accompanying video clip are now finally released.

Baseline

Tim’s Favourite brings you the “zen metal”: a rather idiosynchratic, somewhat disorienting trip straight into hell during which grunge, metal, psychedelic rock and inscrutable lyrics will forever bulldoze your last remaining certainties to bits and leave your neck muscles in a permanent state of infernal agony. For fans of Tool, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, Prong, Metallica, Meshuggah and, would you believe it, the (later) Beatles…

BIO: 

Tim’s Favourite is a Belgian quartet mingling seemingly irreconcilable elements of grunge, thrash metal, progressive metal, stoner and, frankly, whatever they dig in their own hypnotizing concrete mixer, resulting into something they like to call “zen metal”. Think of it what you may, think Tool meets Alice In Chains meets early Metallica and then some.

The band’s unholy name might put you on the wrong track about its not necessarily uplifting vibe, but there’s a thoroughly credible narrative behind it: One day, founding father Jan Pauwels discovered his three-year-old nephew Tim with a pair of headphones, in a state of total disbelief and utter torment whilst listening to demos for what was to become the first album of his uncle’s metal project. The name for the project was found. In the following years, each new TF album only added to The Infernal Majesty’s torment, eventually leaving him no option but to join the band bearing his name, so as to cunningly manipulate them into ditching any songmaterial in his view short from pure perfection.

Add the synchronicity of this harrowing family feud to a blistering rhythm section, layered (dis)harmonies and the ensuing inevitable explosion of raw aggression on stage and you have the uncanny formula for Tim’s Favourite.

If all of the above gives you a vague hunch that The Favourites don’t take themselves meritoriously enough then make no mistake about it: When it comes to their music and – perhaps even more so – their lyrics, they are rediculously serious. After on the previous 3 albums having gotten to the bottom of romantic topics such as Darwinism, the Holocaust, religion, science, free will, incompleteness, capitalism and the inexorcible feeling of not wanting to get up in the morning, on their forthcoming new album album (to be released on Jan. 16, 2024) they find themselves entertaining a doubt as to the benignity of what may possibly be the most democracy-disrupting force in the 21st century. The title (“amaConda”), by the way, is not misspelled. It’s not even so much about snakes, either. But, probably more to the point, as a teaser a video clip for the title track was released on Nov. 22 of this year.

It is with immense excitement that we announce the collaboration between the remarkable Italian/Brazilian folk artist Amanda Gonsales and Wormholedeath. The partnership is set to rekindle the magic of Amanda’s enchanting EP, “Sacro,” with a scheduled re-release on December 22, 2023.

Amanda Gonsales is renowned for her enchanting and mystical musical creations, seamlessly blending in elements in the vein of some Wardruna, all sung in her native Portuguese. Her EP “Sacro” was released in 2019. The EP’s success paved the way for two remarkable tours across Portugal in 2021, gracing numerous festivals and concert halls.

Amanda’s artistic expression transcends conventional boundaries, as she invites her audience to embark on a multisensory journey through sound and stage performance, transporting them to realms beyond the ordinary fabric of space and time.

In Amanda’s words, “Talk about ‘Sacro’ is always a great challenge. At the same time that I seem to have so much to say about this album, it seems words will never be enough to express what this work really means to me.” Her artistic journey began very early, leading her to this crucial point in her career – the release of their first EP. It was during her time in Évora, Portugal, that the seeds of “Sacro” began to take root.The encounter with the historic city – with so many layers of time and apparent civilizations that take us to other cultures, and put it in contact with the dimension of memory and imagination – is necessary for the artist’s work. So, the crossing of personal memories with historical memories of the city resonated with her the need to talk about aspects of the place that the heritage does not highlight – the city’s wounds – in this case, the Inquisition.With influences from Brazilian Popular Music, Iberian, Scandinavian, and Arabic Folk Music, and medieval Sacred Music, Amanda and her music producer patiently crafted the songs over many months. The result is “Sacro,” a work that transforms the listener through rich, evocative landscapes, connecting him with hidden aspects of himself. The EP features a talented ensemble of musicians, including Acauan Normanton, Marina Gama, Catarina Schmitt, Pedro Bortolin, Natália Schneck, Clara Kok, Bruno Gazoni, Tarcísio Barsalini, Matheus Vazquez, and Rafael Garcia, showcasing a diverse range of instruments and sounds that complement Amanda’s unique style.

To complement this musical journey, Amanda Gonsales presents the official video for the track “Sigilo,” which can be viewed at:

Amanda Gonsales is on a mission to provoke and inspire through her music, bringing the marginalized to the center stage, and inviting listeners to reflect on their own shadows and consequently those of society.
