FROM 20 BUCK SPIN: 

Italy’s Assumption and 20 Buck Spin today announce the upcoming release of the band’s third album ‘Paradox Of The Arrow’ on November 13th.

A new single ‘Tombs Upon The Sun’ is now released everywhere and LP / CD pre-orders available from 20 Buck Spin.

An additional exclusive Tan Smoke variant is also available to Italian / EU fans via Italy’s own Grindpromotion Records.

Taking its name from Zeno’s ancient paradox of motion; the proposition that an arrow in flight, observed at any single instant, is motionless; ‘Paradox of the Arrow’ finds an apt philosophical analogue for Assumption’s music.

These 6 tracks from the depths draw the listener through successive states of movement and inertia, collapsing the notion of linear time.

Across its prolonged passages and sudden eruptions, the album continually distorts the sense of scale and duration.

By the time the arrow reaches its mark, the path behind it feels far less certain than when it began.

1. Paradox of the Arrow

2. A Labyrinth In Ruin

3. Tombs Upon the Sun

4. Southwards Our Spirits Shall Forever Drift

5. Selenite

6. Vrykolakes

FROM BRUTAL ASSAULT 2027 PROMOTERS: 

Sinister Official and Sinister90 at Brutal!

At the 30th anniversary edition of Brutal Assault, we will celebrate the renowned history of the Dutch death metal school – both versions of the legendary Dutch band, Sinister and Sinister90, will perform at the Josefov Fortress!

Our festival is primarily meant to unite, and we definitely do not want to be the judges of which version of Sinister is the true one. Both parties have the right to play their songs. Therefore, as part of the anniversary, we will offer you 2 sets featuring material predominantly from their first 3 records.

Sinister: Aad Kloosterwaard has been at the helm of Sinister for over three decades – over the years, he swapped the drum kit for a microphone, and under his direction, the band has evolved into a brutal death metal machine driven by massive sound and blast beats.

Sinister90: Fronted by original vocalist Mike van Mastrigt and riff master Bart van Wallenberg, they will get straight to the core of the matter.

Both lineups harken back to the days when European death metal itself was forming. Get ready for an excursion into genre milestones like the cult albums Cross the Styx, Diabolical Summoning, and Hate. Pure old-school destruction.

Sinister a Sinister90 na Brutalu!

Na jubilejním 30. ročníku Brutal Assault oslavíme věhlasnou historii holandské deathmetalové školy - v josefovské pevnosti totiž vystoupí obě verze legendární nizozemské kapely - Sinister a Sinister90!

Náš festival má primárně spojovat a my rozhodně nechceme být soudci která verze Sinister je ta pravá a která ne. Právo hrát svoje songy mají obě strany. Proto vám v rámci výročí nabídneme 2 sety, na kterých uslyšíte materiál převážně z prvních 3 desek.

Sinister - Aad Kloosterwaard stojí v čele Sinister už přes tři dekády - postupem let vyměnil bicí soupravu za mikrofon a kapela se pod jeho taktovkou vyvinula v brutální deathmetalovou mašinu sázející na masivní zvuk a blastbeaty.

Sinister90 - v čele s původním vokalistou Mikem van Mastrigtem a riffovým masérem Bartem Van Vallenbergem půjdou k jádru věci.

Obě sestavy se vrací do dob, kdy se formoval samotný evropský death metal. Připravte se na exkurzi k milníkům žánru jako jsou kultovní alba Cross the Styx, Diabolical Summoning nebo Hate. Čistá oldschoolová destrukce
