FROM FROZEN CROWN: 

 

We're INCREDIBLY proud to introduce you to our NEW ALBUM "The Legend Of The Six Kings"! ๐Ÿ‘‘ PRE-ORDERS open NOW! Out October 2nd on Napalm Records.
Here's the gorgeous album cover painted by @Sheilafranco__art
Our brand new album will introduce dark fantasy elements in our music (and visuals, of course), and draw directly from our debut album "The Fallen King", continuing the saga of the Kings and the Tyrant, as we are - thanks to a brilliant newly extended team - finally able to do justice to what we had in mind with the original concept of the band. The visionary genius of Raoul Noise (the video maker behind all our new videos and band photos), the masterful craftsmanship of Daria Gislon (who designed and built the throne and the literal "frozen crown") and of course the outstanding artistic talent of Sheila Franco (who hand painted our album cover art) gave life to the vibrant, obscure, frozen world we had in mind since the very beginning of the band, somewhere between J. R. R. Tolkien's harmonious and regal aesthetics and Robert E. Howard's brutality.
TRACKLIST:
1) Lightning in the Sky
2) Who Wants to Burn in Heaven
3) Reborn
4) The One
5) Iris
6) Winter Hearts
7) River of Time
๐Ÿ˜Ž Through the Fire
9) To the Stars
10) The Legend of the Six Kings

FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE: 

 

This week Catherine and Hamish Glencross join me for a raucous, wide-ranging discussion featuring a deep dive into the making of the new Projections record by Godthrymm. We explore the evolution of the band’s sound across their three-album discography, Catherine’s increasingly prominent role on newer material, and the perks and pitfalls of balancing marriage, family and careers with life in a band. Along the way, Hamish also shares insights from his time with Vallenfyre and My Dying Bride — and I drop a huge announcement of my own.
Then it’s on to the Weekly News Rant, where I round up the latest singles from Verzauber, Chamber of Unlight, Left to Die, Witch Club Satan and more for judgment. I also share my list of must-see bands at this weekend’s Fortress Festival, talk about my favourite film scores, and plenty more besides.
PLUS: Irish blackened death metal upstarts Leadbelcher deliver a “Premiere On The Sphere” with their latest single — while reanimating a fallen icon because you’re starved for attention and money earns a one-way trip to the porcelain bowl of reckoning for this week’s Swirly of the Week.
Episode 318 is now on your favourite digital platform

FROM THE BERZERKER: 

 

I need to be straight with you lot.
We stopped playing live because I couldn't give you the show you deserved. My back was wrecked, the tech was primitive, and every gig felt like I was fighting the equipment instead of using it. The Berzerker was supposed to be a sensory overload — speed, chaos, precision violence — and we were delivering maybe 60% of that on a good night.
I refused to do that anymore.
17 years later, the game has changed. Modern mixing desks, in ear monitors, seamless sample playback, lighting integration, the whole production stack — it's finally at a level where I can construct this thing properly. Where the machine does what I need it to do, and I can focus on delivering the sonic assault without my body falling apart in the process.
So we're doing one show. One proper show. The way this was always meant to be.
Necrosonic Festival 2026 — Saturday 22 August, Mansfield Tavern, Brisbane.
Come witness what The Berzerker actually sounds like when the technology stops getting in the way.
