FROM HELLRIPPER:

I'm pleased to finally share some details on the upcoming Hellripper album ‘Coronach’, along with the release of a new track, “Hunderprest”.

The album will contain 8 tracks and will be released on CD/vinyl/cassette/digital formats by Century Media Records on March 27th 2026.

‘Coronach’ is a personal exploration of Scottish Culture — its music, literature, history & folklore.

From Pictish mysteries to Victorian Gothic literature, sinister lore, classic Scottish poetry and modern urban tales, the album tells stories of the country throughout the ages.

Sonically inspired by anything and everything from Venom and Mercyful Fate, to Watain and Opeth, to Manic Street Preachers, film scores and traditional Scottish music, the album is a good representation of myself all wrapped up in a nice speed metal package!

Quite a bit of experimentation went into this album, and I wanted each track to contain something that I had never done previously. Whether it be the inclusion of a different instrument, or how a song begins, I aimed to offer some element of surprise in each track.

The album, named after the vocal lament traditionally sung at funerals in the Scottish Highlands,encompasses everything the band is about: mixing modern and old-school influences, past and present storytelling, the dark side of Scottish history and my personal interpretation of it.

As always, the writing and recording took place in my home studio, with various other people putting their stamp on a few of the tracks. The album was mixed by myself, and was mastered by Damian Herring at Subterranean Watchtower Studios and the artwork was done by Adam Burke (Nightjar Illustration).

Fàilte gu Alba - Welcome to Scotland!

I really appreciate the support from everyone that has allowed the band to get to this point, and I hope you enjoy the new track!

'Coronach’ Track Listing:

1. Hunderprest

2. Kinchyle (Goatkraft and Granite)

3. The Art of Resurrection

4. Baobhan Sith (Waltz of the Damned)

5. Blakk Satanik Fvkkstorm

6. Sculptor's Cave

7. Mortercheyn

8. Coronach

TOMBSEEKER: STREAMING NEW RELEASE "TOMBSEEKER" VIA BANDCAMP

No photo description available.

Kansas City, Missouri, U.S.A. based death metal warriors TOMBSEEKER, via BANDCAMP, are streaming the bands self titled debut, unleashed 1/16/2026 via IRON FORTRESS RECORDS.

FROM TOMBSEEKER:

TOMBSEEKER NEW SINGLE ‘IMMOLATED SELF’ STREAMING NOW

Kansas City death metal battalion, TOMBSEEKER, unleash their self-titled debut this January, a battle-tempered display of pure, unfiltered death metal. Forgoing excess and ornamentation, TOMBSEEKER delivers a record rooted in brute force, steel-clad riffcraft, and tightly focused songwriting, honed to hit with lethal precision.

Drawing from the tank-tread force of Bolt Thrower, the HM-2-driven savagery of Entombed, and the merciless punishment of Suffocation, TOMBSEEKER craft a sound of relentless aggression that drives forward with pulverizing momentum.

Lead single, ‘Immolated Self’, fires the record’s opening salvo, layering serrated HM-2 riffs, pounding tom strikes, double-kick bursts, and colossal bass, surging through explosive turns that keep listeners on edge while previewing the full barrage that awaits. It’s a precise, unrelenting strike that defines the album’s mission: classic death metal executed with iron-forged ruthlessness.

Across the album, drummer Allen Gingerich propels the charge with punishing percussion, as guitarists Kyle Calloway and Simon Joseph carve out grinding riffs that snap, lurch, and cut with violent intent. Bassist Alex Van Erem anchors the low-end devastation, with earthshaking weight, while vocalist Jonathan Houst leads the front line with a commanding, blood-raw roar that seals the band’s sound in pure death metal ferocity.

Recorded by TOMBSEEKER, with mixing and mastering handled by drummer Allen Gingerich, ‘Tombseeker’ is completed with artwork by Darkpen, logo by Remedy Art, and photography by Paper Anchor Media.

Tombseeker officially releases on January 16th on digital and CD via Iron Fortress Records. Pre-order your copy now at www.ironfortressrecords.com (link in bio)

BTW, ITP TEXT is CREATIVE COMMONS and you might look silly as I have bit of black list in the music industry and beyond. A couple of issues I would like to address: ITP DOES NOT like PSYCHOTIC people following ITP, you're under arrest, I will sue you. ITP does not promote local and regional artists/bands and music venues whom have screwed me over, don't reciprocate or bands, labels, venues I don't like. It is NOT ITP's responsibility for promoting your venue, club or crap band or show, DIY and promote your self, If I don't promote you or your band are awful, the music is awful. ITP only promotes what SHE likes, go play in your own sandbox. I don't promote local or regional bands or/and venues just because they are local, nor do I ignore bands and venues from out of state and out of the U.S. . ITP does not promote main stream music nor mall core..Only extreme metal.. There are a couple of labels that are blacklisted, one that is national socialist. A few bands are blacklisted from ITP, and one or two venues. Obviously is someone gets in fight over ITP there will be consequences, NOT YOURS, ITP owns her own copy right. ITP is not a request journal, it is an extreme metal source for extreme metal news, no hipsters, ITP is my journal. ITP, while a media partner for most labels,does not write for nor work for record labels and is independent of record labels. ITP is not owned by a record label. BTW, regarding monetize for adverts, ITP does not normally do adverts and has not committed to monetize, although I'll look into it, depending on timing and circumstances.
