FROM EVERGREY:

LEAVING THE EMPTINESS - OUT NOW

Who is excited for the new album?

Our new single is a high-energy firecracker that makes you want to jump — we know, because we just played it in Brazil twice and people were more in the air than on the ground.

But don’t let the adrenaline fool you. Underneath the surge is something rawer — a song about the moment you stop running from what hurts and finally turn to face it. “Leaving the Emptiness” hits hard because it earns it. The tension between the euphoric, major-key drive and the weight of the lyrics is completely intentional — we want you to feel joy and ache at the same time, because that’s what it actually feels like to face your demons and come out the other side.

We also made a video that matches that energy in every way, and we genuinely cannot wait for you to see it.

ROMAN from Norwegian progressive black metal warriors BIZZAREKULT, was recently interviewed by INTO THE NECROSPHERE

BIZZAREKULT, via BANDCAMP, are streaming the bands anticipated new release "DEN TAPTE KRIGEN", unleashed 1/27/2023 via SEASON O

FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE:

Roman V — founder and creative force behind black metal outfit Bizarrekult — returns to Into The Necrosphere this week. We go deep on the creation and themes of the band’s new album, Alt Som Finnes, with Roman opening up about the personal struggles that shaped it, and how unexpected support from a scene legend helped bring it across the finish line. We also cover his experience performing at this year’s INFERNO METAL FESTIVAL NORWAY, and plenty more.

On the Weekly News Rant, fellow Horseman of the Podcasting Apocalypse Mike Scondotto joins me for an epic breakdown of the latest singles from Ride For Revenge, Lorn, Inferno, Arroganz and more. We also get into the recent layoffs at MetalSucks and Metal Injection — and what they signal about the state of metal media — before Mike drops a “bad metal take” that needs to be heard to be believed.

PLUS: Soothsayer premiere their latest single on the Sphere, Werewolves throw down the black metal gauntlet with Faustian, and a delusional rockstar wannabe earns a watery reckoning in my Swirly of the Week.

Out now on all digital platforms.

BTW, ITP TEXT is CREATIVE COMMONS and you might look silly as I have bit of black list in the music industry and beyond. A couple of issues I would like to address: ITP DOES NOT like PSYCHOTIC people following ITP, you're under arrest, I will sue you. ITP does not promote local and regional artists/bands and music venues whom have screwed me over, don't reciprocate or bands, labels, venues I don't like. It is NOT ITP's responsibility for promoting your venue, club or crap band or show, DIY and promote your self, If I don't promote you or your band are awful, the music is awful. ITP only promotes what SHE likes, go play in your own sandbox. I don't promote local or regional bands or/and venues just because they are local, nor do I ignore bands and venues from out of state and out of the U.S. . ITP does not promote main stream music nor mall core..Only extreme metal.. There are a couple of labels that are blacklisted, one that is national socialist. A few bands are blacklisted from ITP, and one or two venues. Obviously is someone gets in fight over ITP there will be consequences, NOT YOURS, ITP owns her own copy right. ITP is not a request journal, it is an extreme metal source for extreme metal news, no hipsters, ITP is my journal. ITP, while a media partner for most labels,does not write for nor work for record labels and is independent of record labels. ITP is not owned by a record label. BTW, regarding monetize for adverts, ITP does not normally do adverts and has not committed to monetize, although I'll look into it, depending on timing and circumstances.
