Urban states:

"37 years ago, I started this band. Now, the time has come for me to step down. I want to thank all the fans for their support throughout the years. I wish Tobben, Erik and CF all the very best as they move forward with the band. See you in hell!

FROM VOIVOD: 

 

Second single from "Symphonique" is out today.

"The End Of Dormancy (Symphonique)" is one of the most orchestral pieces on the upcoming live album with the Orchestre symphonique de Québec, and Chewy's words about it say it best:

"I wrote the riffs imagining Roman naval battles with a full orchestra, like the movies from the 50's and 60's. It has a very dramatic vibe. Little did I know that what we synthesized for a four-piece band would eventually explode into its primary original imagined form. It's one of the most orchestral pieces on the album and I remember vividly the crowd's reaction after the grand finale, it was one of these rare life's perfect moments."

Album out June 5th

VOÏVOD announces "SYMPHONIQUE" - a live album with the Orchestre symphonique de Québec, out June 5, 2026 worldwide via Century Media Records.

The putrid MEGASCAVENGER machine rises once again from the depths of Swedish Death Metal with “Toxic Noxious Undeath”, the 6th album from this monstrous creation spawned by the sick and unstoppable mind of Rogga Johansson. The new opus will be unleashed on August 13th through XTREEM MUSIC on CD, 12”LP, cassette, and digital formats.

For this new dose of decay, Rogga has assembled a true legion of cult vocalists, each vomiting their own infection onto an exclusive track. Among the names featured in this parade of rot are Kam Lee (Massacre), Erik Rundqvist (Vomitory), Dave Ingram (Benediction ), Max Otero (Mercyless), Dave Rotten (Avulsed), Felix Stass (Crematory-swe), Michael H. Andersen (Thorium), Silvester Koorevaar (Fondlecorpse), Jan Bergmann Jepsen (Maceration) and Peter Svensson (Void Moon) .

Musically, “Toxic Noxious Undeath” is a crushing avalanche of heavy, rotten, and criminally catchy Death Metal, packed with infectious riffs and sepulchral atmospheres that make this album one of the most devastating and essential releases of the year within the genre.

Is there ever enough filthy, rotten Death Metal drenched in horror themes? MEGASCAVENGER certainly doesn’t think so, and that’s exactly why they return with “Toxic Noxious Undeath”, the band’s sixth full-length assault.

MEGASCAVENGER has been lurking in the underground since 2012, and throughout every album, Rogga Johansson has gathered an impressive cast of guests from some of the most prominent names in Death Metal. Legends from Master, Asphyx, Avulsed, Grave, Edge of Sanity, Massacre and Benediction, among many others, have all left their mark on MEGASCAVENGER’s first four albums: “Descent of Yuggoth” (2012), “At the Plateaus of Leng” (2014), “As Dystopia Beckons” (2016), and “Boneyard Symphonies” (2019).

In early 2020, MEGASCAVENGER signed with Xtreem Music for the release of their fifth album, “Songs in the Key of Madness”, which saw the light in August of the same year. Six years later, Rogga has sculpted a new deformity entitled “Toxic Noxious Undeath”, once again dragging listeners into a world of rotten riffs, horror-soaked atmospheres, and pure old-school Death Metal decay.

For this new work, the artwork was created by Lucretia Morti, who has already left her unmistakable mark on bands such as Ribspreader, Avulsed and Paganizer, among many others.

Tracklist for "Toxic Noxious Undeath" is as follows:

01. Graveyard Dreams and Bonehouse Screams

(feat. Kam Lee/Massacre)

02. Corpses Below

(feat. Felix Stass/Crematory)

03. Exploding Casket Syndrome

(feat. Erik Rundqvist/Vomitory)

04. Heading For the Furnace

(feat. Max Otero/Mercyless)

05. A World of Fire and Brimstone

(feat. Dave Ingram/Benediction)

06. Fleshburner Yearner

(feat. Michael H Andersen/Thorium)

07. As Purgatory Ascends

(feat. Jan Bergmann Jepsen/Maceration)

08. Toxic Noxious Undeath

(feat. Silvester Koorevaar/Fondlecorpse)

09. Shallow Grave Overflow

(feat. Dave Rotten/Avulsed)

10. The Morbid Rides Again

(feat. Peter Svensson/Void Moon)

Release date for "Toxic Noxious Undeath" will be August 13th, 2026 through Xtreem Music on CD, 12"LP, Cassette & Digital formats.
