Canadian Black / Thrash Metal band ETERNAL DRAK have signed a deal with Wormholedeath for the physical release of their album “Drak Metal”. More info coming soon!

Band statement:
Eternal Drak proudly announces that we have signed with the Italian label Wormholedeath to invade the world Metal market with an edition of the Long Play “Drak Metal” in CD format.

The album “Drak Metal” is a Long Play of 12 powerful tracks that travel through different styles of metal, from Heavy Metal to black metal. It is a constant criticism of the evil that the System in all its representations does to human development. An economic, religious, and social oppression that restricts us in our evolution and development. This album was recorded, mixed, and mastered at FirstWave Studio in Quebec Canada in 2020.

ETERNAK DRAK : In 1997 the Martínez brothers, Drakar and Warhammer, aged 17 and 15 began the foundations of “Eternal Drak”.
At the beginning of the 21st century “Eternal Drak” won the “City TV” award for the best Metal video, with the song Eternal Drak,
In 2002, “Eternal Drak” publishes its first album (EP) “La Resurreccion De La Orden Guerrera”.


In 2005, they recorded their second album, but its official release was in 2018, an album mastered in a studio in Québec, Canada and published by “Living Metal”, a Colombian label.


In 2007, “Eternal Drak” disbanded.
In the year 2020, Drakar, Warmessiah and Reijav came together to create the album “The Past is Gone, A New One is Coming”. In memory of his brother and friend, co-founder and eternal drummer of “Eternal Drak”, Eduardo Martínez, Warhammer.
That second album was recorded, mixed, produced and mastered by the band’s leader, Drakar, at the Firstwave Studio facilities in Québec, Canada.
In 2021 the third Long Play of the band is released, DRAK METAL, an album with 12 unreleased songs and 1 Cover.


That same year the Line-up of the band is re-organized with the entry of Juan Francisco Avella on drums and Juan Cuervo on bass. Today “Eternal Drak” is more alive than ever and is determined to honor its name to continue distorting its strings, hitting its drums, strumming its voice, with more Metal, melody, and harmony than ever.

Canadian punk rockers Far From Heroes released new single!

Far From Heroes started in 2000, in Sudbury, Ontario. They toured coast to coast in Canada a dozen times, had a development deal with Sony Music Canada, a video on regular rotation on Much Music and released 2 Eps with Spawner Records out of Langley BC and one independent full length. Played 1000s of shows opening for countless legendary punk rock/hardcore/emo bands throughout the early 2000s

After disbanding in 2005, Lee and Jer went on to start Kansas City Shuffle and Theo and Scott went on to join The Black Maria and released a full length with Victory Records.

Lee and Scott have never stopped writing together, always sharing music back and forth. This set of songs for the EP was a throw back to the pop punk they used to love to write and perform..They decided to capture the nostalgia for the cover art, using old flyers and photos of ourselves scattered on the floor of a garage after a box of memories fell over.

(recenzija) The Real McKenzies – Float Me Boat(Fat Wreck Chords)

Voljeli ga ili ne, Paul McKenzie pegla svoje već godinama, mijenjajući ponekad postavu benda usred turneje kao što je prije nekoliko godina pobacao usred turneje sve članove benda osim onog ogromnog lika na gajdama ili kak se već zovu i prikupio neku ad hoc postavu i nastavio odmah dalje svirati koncerte. Jedna stvar koja mu se mora priznati je volja i snaga u tim godinama. Ja sam ovaj bend gledao prije pet ili slično godina na PRH i nije bio loš gig, ali nisam ja baš jako fan ovog folk ili celtic punka kako zovu tu vrstu punk bendova u kiltovima. Ali, The Real McKenzies imaju neke odlične pjesme koje nisu jako nabijene celtic stilom, već više melodičnim punk rockom, a sve takve se nalaze na ovom albumu koji je greatest hits opus i sadrži 23 pjesme iz bogate karijere ovog benda baziranog u Vancouveru i ovdje se nalaze svi favoriti sa setlista koncerata, možda bi pokoju izbacio, a poneku dodao, ali uglavnom je izbor doba. Kao što rekoh, neke mi ne pašu, one koje su više orijentirane na folk štih i gajde, ali one koje su više orijentirane na melodični punk rock i gitare su baš odlične. Ovo je odličan album za playlistu fanova benda i odličan početnički album za one koji su se tek susreli s ovim bendom i postali ili postati će fanovi.
