Pop Metal Supergroup The Night Flight Orchestra have booked an extensive tour of Europe for 2022. The band is comprised of members of some of the foremost artists in rock and metal (Soilwork, Arch Enemy, Mean Streak) and for over a decade have made their name making toe-tapping covers, fun albums, and energetic live performances.
By the time Floridian thrashers Trivium released their second album, Ascendancy (Roadrunner Records) in 2005, the band were locked firmly into an upward trajectory which promised nothing short of global domination. Unfortunately, things didn’t quite work out as planned but the four-piece still remain one of the most successful metal acts around today despite having to constantly push against an unrelenting tide of haters who decided sometime during the mid-late ’00s that Trivium just weren’t metal enough any more or something.
Soilwork has shared a new teaser for a new, as yet untitled, music video. The drop date is October 23rd, 2020. The band has stayed busy throughout the pandemic, has been in the studio over the summer recording new music, released “The Feverish Trilogy”, the new single “Death Diviner”, and started booking tour dates for 2021, all on the heels of their last album, 2019’s acclaimed album Verkligheten (Nuclear Blast Records).
Melodic Death Metal Legends Soilwork have announced a new run of concert and festival dates in their home country, Sweden. These six dates are spread across 2021. Direct support where noted will come from Symphonic Metal artist Eleine. See the announcement from the band at the link below for tickets. The band has been spending their time during lockdown recording new music and we’re looking forward to new Soilwork jams.
Many times in music journalism, we writers are given to hyperbole, often because it is the low hanging fruit of the field to gush about the classics with a torrent of compliments. You often read words like genre-defying, and frankly, a lot of the time they don’t land as they are meant to. However, in the case of the entire career of Fear Factory and certainty of the album Demanufacture (Roadrunner Records), the words can never do proper justice to the music. Simply stated, Deamnfacture is one of the most important, unique, and unapologetically brutal albums in heavy metal history. Continue reading
