Alleviate‘s powerful new single ‘Better’ explores themes of self-doubt and the journey towards self-improvement. The song captures a feeling of being lost and constantly in second place, struggling with uncertainty and self-doubt. More than just reflecting personal struggles, ‘Better’ stands as an inspiring call to action, encouraging listeners to face their fears and ambitiously chase their dreams.

Upon releasing their debut single ‘Die For Me’, Alleviate gained fans across the globe. Famous internet reactors like Nik Nocturnal and Too Lit Mafia supported their powerful sound, which combines technical riffs, heavy breakdowns, and catchy hooks.

They combine the best of technical metalcore, deathcore, djent and post-hardcore in one powerful and beautiful style. The members have proven themselves numerous times in previous and current bands. They’ve played hundreds of shows and are experienced live performers.

The name Alleviate itself represents what the band stands for; giving hope and spreading a positive message into the world.

MADDER MORTEM release second single of forthcoming album

Five years after the release of “Marrow”, MADDER MORTEM are back with their brand new album “Old Eyes, New Heart”  which will be released on January 26 via Dark Essence Records.

Whilst fans wait for its release, Dark Essence Records has today debuted the second single taken from the album.

‘The Head That Wears The Crown’ can be downloaded/streamed HERE.

MADDER MORTEM comment on the track: “‘The Head That Wears The Crown’ is a typical example of how Madder Mortem’s song writing works, combining an intensely melodic, nearly baroque verse with a down-tuned, heavy-handed riff-based refrain very suitable for banging your head. The lyrics deal with how there are some lines that will not be crossed and some things that will not be handed out for free, not even for love.

The cover artwork, which was created by Jakob Kirkevaag & Costin Chioreanu, and further album details of Old Eyes, New Heart can be found below.

It has been five years since MADDER MORTEM released their seventh full-length album “Marrow”, and it has been a long, hard journey, beset by turmoil and heartbreaking loss, which culminated in the death of Jakob, father of the band’s vocalist Agnete and guitarist BP.  

Jakob had always been a huge supporter of the band, and his backing was fundamental to the launch of MADDER MORTEM‘s career. Being an artist himself, Jakob had worked on two paintings for “Old Eyes, New Heart”, and, thanks to the band’s long-term collaborator artist and video producer Costin Chioreanu, who was able to adapt Jakob’s work and provide additional design, the cover art was completed. Even though Jakob didn’t live to see the finished album, he would have been immensely proud to see his art on the cover, and the album is dedicated to his memory.

“Old Eyes, New Heart” was recorded and produced by BP M. Kirkevaag, and shows MADDER MORTEM‘s lineup of Agnete M. Kirkevaag on vocals, BP M. Kirkevaag on guitar & vocals, Anders Langberg on guitars, Tormod L. Moseng on bass and Mads Solås on drums embracing a multitude of directions, spanning from post-metal heaviness to soft Americana grooves and everything in between.

It is an album full of surprises. Lyrically and musically, “Old Eyes, New Heart” deals with hope, disappointment, and the ambivalence between them. It is music from old hearts and deep roots, with new eyes open to the unlimited possibilities of 12 notes, but always with the desire to write a good, honest song. Which makes it unmistakably MADDER MORTEM.

Style: Prog, Avant-Garde, Post-Metal

Line up:

Agnete M. Kirkevaag: Vocals

BP M. Kirkevaag: Guitar, vocals

Anders Langberg: Guitar

Tormod L. Moseng: Bass

Mads Solås: Drums

Cover: Jakob Kirkevaag & Costin Chioreanu

Atmospheric Black Metallers TERREUR NOCTURNE Released New Album “Solitude Post-Mortem”!

Atmospheric Black Metallers TERREUR NOCTURNE Released New Album “Solitude Post-Mortem”!

The French atmospheric black metal band TERREUR NOCTURNE released its new album “Solitude Post-Mortem” on October 13th via Music-Records. Don’t lose it if you are a fan of Seth, Dissection, Glaciation, Grima, and Afsky!

Terreur Nocturne‘s first full-length invites the listener to plunge into the nightmarish universe of the oniric realm through the prism of Solitude: each song explores the theme of Solitude by drawing freely on personal stories and experienced discomforts more or less universal, and real nightmares experienced by the singer, suffering from parasomnias. Whether it is the Forgetting of the deceased, Social Isolation, Depression, or even the refusal to be part of a world that we loathe, this album attempts to portray through its sometimes lively melodies and sometimes melancholy an overview of Solitude. Between deep darkness and occasional glimmers of hope, the 9 songs of “Solitude Post-Mortem” offer a journey between death and resilience, stretched between nightmare and hope.
