Finnish death metal band Philadelphia Incident releases new single ‘OBEY’!

Philadelphia Incident is a relentless force within the metal realm, hailing from Finland. Born from the fusion of diverse metal subgenres, this two-man powerhouse channels their collective creativity and unyielding passion into an auditory onslaught that defies boundaries.

As they unleash their new single, ‘Obey,’ on all streaming platforms, brace yourself for a sonic journey that will leave an indelible mark. Philadelphia Incident is a beacon of rebellion, an anthem for those who refuse to conform, and a symbol of unyielding resilience in the face of adversity.

Featuring guest solo from Tomy Laisto (known from such outfits as Hateform, Mors Principium Est, Mors Subita, Omnium Gatherum, Pain Confessor and tons of others), ‘Obey’ showcases the band’s signature blend of death and thrash metal elements with various instrumental breaks and cultural references.

Formed as a labor of ‘lovely hate,’ Philadelphia Incident draws upon their past ventures, including the acclaimed Pain Confessor and Sancnity, to forge a new path of sonic destruction. Their music serves as a chimaera, seamlessly blending elements of death metal, thrash, and progressive metal, delivering a visceral experience that captivates and commands the listener’s attention.

With a relentless drive and unapologetic approach, Philadelphia Incident tackles themes of oppression, rebellion, and the eternal struggle against a system that seeks to control and subjugate. Their lyrics serve as a haunting reflection of the dystopian world we inhabit, urging us to question the status quo and fight for our individuality and freedom.

Prepare to be engulfed by their crushing riffs, thunderous drums, and savage vocals that cut through the air like a serrated blade. Philadelphia Incident’s music is a cathartic release, a blistering assault on the senses that leaves you craving more. Their energy is infectious, commanding you to headbang, mosh, and embrace the power of the music that courses through your veins.

Finnish goth rockers LAMORI release captivating single and lyric video for ‘Never Alone’!

Acclaimed rock dark metal band LAMORI is set to enthrall fans once again with the release of their latest single and accompanying lyric video, ‘Never Alone.’ The track, which offers a unique blend of haunting romanticism and dystopian science fiction, serves as a precursor to their highly anticipated album, ‘NEON BLOOD FIRE.’

‘Never Alone’ transports listeners to a near-future world teetering on the edge of self-destruction, where two lovers dare to face the chaos surrounding them and unearth the chilling secrets of their own existence. Against the backdrop of a dying sun, they cling to the enigmatic cyber-legend known as The Athanasia Project. The track’s compelling narrative weaves a tragic tale of love and loss, leaving an indelible mark on the hearts of those who dare to venture into LAMORI’s dark and enchanting realm.

LAMORI’s band members, including Matias Juselius (vocals), Marcus Pellas (guitar), Mikael Westerlund (bass), Jens Wickholm (keys), and Emanuel Sanchez (drums), have poured their artistic vision into ‘Never Alone.’ Demonstrating their versatility, the band chose to include a slightly softer song within their repertoire of hard-hitting bangers, a tradition they’ve maintained across their previous albums. ‘Never Alone’ seamlessly blends heartfelt emotions with a powerful musicality, culminating in a bridge that delivers an intense punch, emblematic of LAMORI’s signature style.

(review) LORDI – ‘Screem Writers Guild’

Finnish monsters LORDI are back with new full length opus. This time, the album features 14 songs done in a concept way like watching a horror movie. Lordi provide all these years their vision of horror like metal/hard rock with shock rock tactics, owing much to Alice Cooper, but also to GWAR on the other side of things. Mr.Lordi’s trademark vocals guide us through catchy bunch of songs and bloodsoaked themed horror park and heavy hitters like ‘Dead Again Jayne’, ‘Unliving Picture Show’, ‘The Bride’, ‘Scarecrow’ remind me of all those my favorite horror movies and why I love horror genre so much. The music on this record is much more into heavy/hard rock, more so than metal with electronic samples and keyboards beneath the guitar riffs thus creating also those melancholic melodies that only Finnish bands are capable to create, no matter which genre of music they belong to. I would love to witness Lordi live one day, as I am sure their shows are much fun and shock rock, maybe in package with Alice Cooper or BZFOS. So, to conclude, this album offers nothing new or special regarding this band, but it is tried and great formula. Long live the horror!
