 FROM OVERTHRUST: 

HELLO WORLD,

Please join us in welcoming our newest member, Deon Ntshabang aka Neverdie, a 22-year-old guitarist from Motopi, Botswana, who officially joins Overthrust as our new rhythm guitarist.

In November 2025, Overthrust announced auditions for the rhythm guitarist position. Several people showed interest, with some submitting video clips but failing to attend the physical auditions. Our frontman, Tshomarelo Mosaka Vulture Thrust then remembered a young man who had attended secondary school in Maun with our guitarist Zehst Thrustt, who had previously been teaching him the basics of guitar. Vulture contacted Zehst, got Deon’s details and reached out to him and his parent. We quickly learned that Deon had a deep passion for music. His family was excited about the opportunity and confirmed his love for music, despite spending much of his time on the farm. Although Deon had only basic guitar skills, his passion, commitment, willingness to learn and love for Overthrust stood out. He also revealed that he was a die-hard Overthrust fan. We therefore decided to give him a chance.

On 10 February 2026, Deon officially joined Overthrust and began his training by Overthrust. For the first 2 months, Zehst Thrustt took him under his wing, teaching him guitar from the beginning and helping him build the foundation needed to play with the band. He then moved to the next stage, where our drummer @Balatedi Folai Beast Thrust worked with him on playing along with drums, developing his timing and feel. Then came the big moment, playing with the entire band. Last week, Deon played with the full Overthrust lineup on a big stage, experiencing a much bigger sound and environment than the small rehearsal space he had been accustomed to. He played well, and Overthrust Management was satisfied with his progress, dedication and commitment throughout the journey.

Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-

French Folk Band SKÁLD Releases Third Single, “Dǫkksalir”!

Watch the Lyric Video: https://youtu.be/R3CrS5NpjAI

New Album, Ørlǫg, Will Be Released This Friday, September 25: https://lnk.to/SKALD-Orlog

Warrior Chant Tour as Special Guest for The HU Kicks Off September 29!

SKÁLD about “Dǫkksalir”:

“‘Dokksalir’ draws us into the dark depths of the sea; in the distance, the sirens’ song calls to us, yet also terrifies us; mischievous spirits watch us and laugh at us; they already know we will be weak; the light no longer protects us; down below, eyes stare at you—perhaps it is you yourself watching yourself lose your way. Those siren voices are so beautiful.”

French dark folk entity SKÁLD releases “Dǫkksalir”, unveiling gentle melodies that unfold almost like a lullaby—perfectly fitting the concept of the enchanting yet frightening sirens lurking in the dark. The song is taken from the band’s upcoming full-length album, Ørlǫg, which will be released this Friday, September 25, 2026. Ørlǫg marks SKÁLD’s first release via Napalm Records and awakens ancient spirits as the band extends an invitation into times long gone but not forgotten.

Right in time to bring their new music to stages across Europe and the United Kingdom, SKÁLD are set for a major autumn UK/EU arena tour supporting The Hu, kicking off on September 29 in Glasgow
