FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE: 

 

Hellripper mastermind, James McBain, joins me on the show this week to chart the band’s evolution from a one-man black/speed metal assault to one of the most electrifying forces in the underground. We get into his songwriting process, the evolution of the Hellripper sound, and how he overcame performance anxiety to emerge as one of metal’s most commanding frontmen.
On the Weekly News Rant, I react to two huge surprises from the past weekend: a new Darkthrone record and the long-awaited return of Neurosis. I also share first impressions of new material from Ashen Horde, High Parasite, and Samael, plus my take on the divisive new Exodus album—and plenty more.
PLUS: Unsanctioned Filth spotlights rising Mexican chaos merchants Ov Darkness I Breed.
Out now on all digital platforms.

VALDRIN: POST "BEYOND THE FOREST" (REISSUE)

 No photo description available.

Cincinnati, Ohio, U.S.A. based melodic black metal warriors VALDRIN have posted the bands anticipated reissue of the bands debut release  "BEYOND THE FOREST", due to be re- unleashed 3/27/2026 via AVANTGARDE MUSIC.  





VALDRIN, via BANDCAMP, are streaming the bands anticipated new release "EFFIGY OF NIGHTMARES", unleashed 6/12/2020 via BLOOD HARVEST.


VALDRIN unleashed "TWO CARRION TALISMANS", unleashed 9/28/2018 via BLOOD HARVEST. 



FROM AVANTGARDE MUSIC: 

By now the name Valdrin is known to many ears. The melodic black metal band from Ohio has been constantly rising in the underground for over a decade now, gathering acclaim across the board thanks to its unique narrative approach, singing the deeds of Valdrin Ausadjur. Still, it is not known to many that the first Valdrin studio album, the first chapter in the Valdrin Ausadjur saga, is somewhat of a lost record. Originally crafted between 2011 and 2012, Beyond The Forest only saw the light through two small runs of CDs in 2013 and 2014, and has been unavailable since. Until now.
The renewed collaboration between Valdrin and Avantgarde Music brings forth the first proper edition of Beyond The Forest, scheduled for release on March 27th, 2026, just in time for the band’s first European tour ever (courtesy of Occult Booking). Valdrin’s very first effort, now made available on CD and double LP with a brand-new cover art by long-time collaborator Lucas Ruggieri Illustration and a dedicated vinyl mastering by Tim Yatras (Austere, Germ), tells the first steps of a hero. Here is how the legend was born…
Preorders available via Sound Cave and Bandcamp, links in the first comment.
