Exciting news for our friends in Latin/South America I!!
Benediction can now confirm that the guy assuming the frontman/vocalist position on their LATAM tour in November will be the original voice of Death Metal, KAM LEE!
The band are super excited about the prospect of working with Kam and are looking forward to going back on the road in one of their favourite territories.
Here is a direct message from the Man Himself;
“I am excited to be joining Benediction as vocalist for the LATAM tour. Given my long-term friendship with Dave Ingram, it was vital for me to obtain his dark blessing before stepping into this position.
The band has been aided by notable talent, including Oscar Rilo and Dave Hunt, who have both delivered impressive live performances.
I'm eager to follow their lead and hope to adequately represent the band and satisfy the fans.”
So there it is! Go grab your tickets and let’s make this historic event something people will talk about for years!!!

 FROM GODTHRYMM:

The new Godthrymm album Projections will be released on May 29. Check out the video for the LP's first single "Truth In My Own". The video was shot and edited by Ash Pears. Projections is now available for pre-order.

FROM PROFOUND LORE RECORDS: 

 

The new Godthrymm album Projections has been announced and set for release on May 29. Pre-orders and video for “Truth In My Own” now live. Record release show going down June 6th @ Brudenell Social Club in Leeds, tickets and vinyl (limited exclusive UK gold vinyl)l/CD bundles now available through Crash Records. Exclusive metallic gold vinyl variant limited to 100 units only available through UK retailers and also available for pre-order here: https://linktr.ee/godthrymm
During the band’s discourse since the release of their Reflections debut LP Godthrymm have been recognized as the new emerging band from the UK to bring back the glorious aura of early-mid ‘90s UK doom metal. As expected, considering Godthrymm was formed and is helmed by UK doom metal veteran Hamish Glencross (ex-My Dying Bride/Vallenfyre/Solstice) and features doom metal drummer extraordinaire Shaun Taylor-Steels (ex-My Dying Bride/Anathema). So in this sense, the classic UK doom metal DNA has already been implemented within the sonic fabric of Godthrymm.
Projections sees Godthrymm continue to develop and broaden their sound even further, and building upon the cornerstones of Distortions. Now with an expanded lineup which includes keyboardist co-vocalist Catherine Glencross, bassist Bob Crolla and new second guitarist Kris McLaughin, Projections is GODTHRYMM’s most layered, varied and complex release yet, all while still upholding the colossal emotionally charged heavy doom backbone that has defined the core of the band’s sound.
Projections features guest appearances by Aaron Stainthorpe (High Parasite/ex-My Dying Bride), original English Dogs vocalist Adie Bailey, and Xentrix vocalist Jay Walsh. Cover art was done by Mitchell Nolte.
Track listing:
1. Trenches Deep
2. Truth In My Own
3. The Sun Never Fell
4. Endure My Skin (feat. Aaron Stainthorpe)
5. Jewels
6. Hope Is Eternal

FROM PSICORRAGIA: 

 

Official statement from Satanath Records
New album "Nekromanthra" of Peruvian doom/death metal band Psicorragia is out on June 23, 2026!
"NEKROMANTHRA" is the third full-length album by the Peruvian death/doom metal band PSICORRAGIA. Active since 1994, the band has forged a distinctive identity rooted in darkness, combining the weight of death/doom metal with elements and technique from traditional death metal, along with black metal nuances and influences from other dark genres, establishing itself as a representative band of the genre in South America. With this new release, the band delves even deeper into its darkest vision, expressed through six tracks infused with death/doom metal. Throughout the album, dense and funereal passages coexist with melancholic atmospheres and eruptions of chaos, without abandoning the rawness or technicality of traditional death metal. The work also incorporates black metal nuances and other lugubrious elements that further radicalize the band’s proposal. Thematically, the album explores the darkest corners of the human species, immersing itself in landscapes of decay, death, and the deepest horrors of existence. The lyrics move through the decomposition of both the physical and the moral, the inevitability of the end, the presence of abyssal forces, and the contemplation of the inexorable... All compositions were conceived and produced by the band itself, shaping a work that deepens Psicorragia’s bleakest vision. The album was recorded during 2024, while mixing and mastering were completed between January and July 2025. The album artwork is a work by American artist Thomas G. Anderson, internationally recognized for his Dark Art aesthetic, where cinematic photography and psychological horror converge. For fans of the early works of My Dying Bride, Anathema, Katatonia, Paradise Lost and Moonspell, as well as bands such as Varathron, Rotting Christ, Acheron, Edge of Sanity, Mystifier, Abysmal Grief, Unholy.
Co-release Satanath Records (Georgia) with Thrashirts (Peru).

01. ...Y sus plagas invocaron
02. Abismales
03. Lo inexorable
