Finnish Extreme Metal Force Mormânt De Snagov Signs With Wormholedeath!

Brace yourself for an infernal descent into the abyss as we announce the unholy union of Finnish melodic black metal masters, Mormânt De Snagov, and Wormholedeath! Prepare to be submerged by the searing darkness of their forthcoming opus, “Invocation Through Revocation,” set to be released on November 17, 2023.

In a statement that echoes through the depths of the underground scene, Mormânt De Snagov declared, “Mormânt De Snagov is truly excited about signing the deal with WormHoleDeath. We have been operating deep in the underground for 15 years now, and although it has been very good for us, and the labels we’ve worked with have been fantastic, we felt this might be our time to step up in the game. We feel that WormHoleDeath can offer us just the right channels to release ‘Invocation Through Revocation,’ which we are obviously very proud of.”

“Invocation Through Revocation” marks the fifth installment in Mormânt De Snagov’s infernal odyssey. This sonic odyssey is an intoxicating blend of relentless aggression, icy melancholy, and majestic orchestral harmonies. Sinister progressiveness and a blackened urge to triumph are woven into every track. From relentless, high-velocity bursts to hauntingly harmonic guitar solos, and from thrashy death metal eruptions to melodic, mesmerizing choruses, this album offers an unforgettable journey into the abyss.

The album was crafted between June 2022 and November 2022 amidst the haunting beauty of the Finnish countryside. This remote locale allowed the band to channel their dark, atmospheric vision into the seven tracks that make up “Invocation Through Revocation.” The result is an album where all the enchanting elements of darkness are visible and striking.

Mormânt De Snagov, hailing from the Turku and Naantali regions of Finland, was forged in 2008 by a cadre of seasoned metal veterans. Over their 15-year career, their sonic evolution has been nothing short of a blackened metamorphosis, fusing elements from diverse genres while retaining their core of hateful black metal. Their lyrical themes, once wrapped in old horror story classics, have evolved alongside their music. The name of the band refers to old horror story classics, and during the first years, Mormânt De Snagov actually used horror stories as frames for their dark ideology in the lyrics, accompanied by a raw black metal sound. The members of Mormânt De Snagov have also released several previous efforts through multiple bands and the collective CV nametags such groupings as Fall of the Leafe, Ablaze in Hatred, Searing Meadow, Malefic by Design, Leaflet, and Devastracktor.

This is the band’s moment to shine on a grander stage, and they’re poised to unleash their sonic malevolence upon the world.

Finnish extreme metal band Kneel Before The Death releases new powerful single!

Photographer: Lisa Nikula

Helsinki-based extreme metal band Kneel Before The Death releases new single “I Am The One”. The band is known for their skills to combine massive sound walls to brutal extreme metal expression.


Band Comments on the song:
“´I Am The One´ is the continuation to Kneel Before The Death’s previous single, ´Eternal Sleep´. Filled by hate, the protagonist heads towards a final challenge, one he has never faced before. Only one will prevail. This fight won’t be over until it is won.”

Band’s drummer Konsta Vihavainen comments:
“When we started to write this song, the idea was to create a piece of music with a massive chorus as its centerpiece. Something that would instantly catch the listener’s attention. In addition, we wanted to explore soundscapes that our band hasn’t previously touched upon, and the result is a dynamic and massive extreme metal song. This track is truly a unique combination of haunting guitar melodies, beautiful orchestrals and lots of blast beats.”

Kneel Before The Death is a Finnish extreme metal band founded in early 2013. The band consists of drummer Konsta Vihavainen, guitarist Niko Lappalainen, bassist Joonas Peltonen and vocalist Markus Raito. Kneel Before The Death´s music combines elements   from symphonic metal, black metal and electronic music, such as synthwave, creating the band’s unique sound.


Kneel Before The Death released their first single, ‘In Death We Trust’, in December 2013, following their first EP ‘The First Chapter’ in August 2014. Band kept evolving their sound to a darker direction and in 2015 released two singles, ‘The Bloodline’ and ‘Deathbringer’. Their second EP, ‘Life/Death’, was released in September 2016. ‘Miserere Mei’, a single mixed and mastered by Fredrik Nordström, was released in November 2018. After that, KBTD released an EP, ’Memoir’, on April 28th 2022. Their latest release, single ‘Eternal Sleep’, saw daylight on 5th of May 2023.

Extreme Music Maestro Daniele Brusaschetto Joins Forces with Wormholedeath Records!

We are thrilled to announce that the boundary-pushing extreme music virtuoso, Daniele Brusaschettohas officially inked a deal with Wormholedeath Records.
This exciting collaboration sets the stage for the much-anticipated release of his upcoming album, “Bruise A Shadow, “due for release on October 20th, 2023 worldwide.
More than thirty years animating the obscure scene of Torino, in the Northwest of Italy. Daniele Brusaschetto continues his journey through the different souls of a complex city, with his very personal sonic soot. The new album ties and expands the tropes of the former Flying Stag, hammering even more along the lines of the incandescent lineage of Voivod, Godflesh, and early Mastodon. Tracks built in the last 5 years, existentialism, melancholy, daily apocalypse, non-sense, delirium, and irony. Granite enriched by the mist of new / no wave, from which the echo of sudden melody emerges, a sort of emotional industry, to uncover beyond the wall of guitars.
Daniele Brusaschetto has been exploring a wide spectrum of sonic genres since his artistic debut in 1994, from industrial and noise rock to metal and introspective songwriting. His relentless pursuit of pushing sonic boundaries has been a defining aspect of his musical journey.
Brusaschetto’s live performances peaked in the 1990s and 2000s, with energizing tours across Europe and the United States. In the 2000s and 2010s, he turned to electronic experimentation, but he never stopped producing records.
In 2016, Brusaschetto returned to his love of guitar and rock music. His 2019 album “Flying Stag” was a triumphant return to the world of heavy, math, groove, and stoner rock. His latest album, “Bruise A Shadow” completes his transformation into a sound reminiscent of early Mastodon, Voivod, and the emotional post-punk movement.
Throughout the years, Brusaschetto’s band has been joined by numerous artists from the Italian “alternative” scene, including Marco Rinaldi (Crunch, Omega Machine, Lama Tematica), Francesco Lurgo, Marco Milanesio (DsorDNE), Bruno Dorella (OvO, Ronin, Bachi Da Pietra), Marco “Il Bue” Schiavo (Larsen), and Mirco Rizzi (Ashtool, Nerocapra).
