U.S.A. based thrash metal veterans FLOTSAM AND JETSAM have posted "PRIMAL", the title track from the bands anticipated new release "I
AM THE WEAPON ,
due to be unleashed 9/13/2024 .
via AFM RECORDS.
FLOTSAM AND JETSAM unleashed "BLOOD IN
THE WATER", 6/4/2021 via AFM RECORDS.
FLOTSAM AND JETSAM have announced new bassist BILL BODILY.
FROM FLOTSAM AND JETSAM:
Veteran Arizona thrashers Flotsam And Jetsam have revealed the second single and music video from their upcoming, 15th studio album “I Am The Weapon”, which will arrive on September 13, 2024 via AFM Records. Following the previously-released, first single and title track, today we are treated to the official music video for “Primal”, which can be seen below.
Talking about the track, the band shares: “We’re very excited to
once again unleash Flotzilla onto the metal community! This time, he’ll
take the form of our newest single, “Primal.” With “Primal,” we tried to
capture the “punch in the face” energy that Flotsam And Jetsam
are known for, and blend it with a melody that sticks in your head for
days… we hope our fans will embrace it, as we are very pleased with how
this song and the new record has turned out, and we look forward to
seeing you all very soon!”
Flotsam And Jetsam
have also announced a repress of their eponymous 2016 album, issued as a
strictly limited, gatefold clear 2LP, which can be added to your
collection by visitingHERE.
“I Am the Weapon” not only takes up seamlessly where
its two outstanding predecessors left off but also goes one step
further in terms of musical skill and composition. While they fully live
out their core competencies such as their aggressive style with fast
tempos, “I Am the Weapon” features more surprising moments than ever before. From brutal high-octane tracks like “I Am the Weapon” to the atmospheric but not superfast “Burned My Bridges” each track on the album is convincing in its own way.
The album was once again mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen with the artwork designed by the band’s longtime collaborator Andy Pilkington of Very Metal Art

FROM MARCHE FUNEBRE:
We proudly present thee our newest fruit of work, 'In a Haze', the first single of our new album, which we titled 'After the Storm'.
It was the first song we wrote since 'Einderlicht' and we are super excited about the result. Producer Martin Furia got the very best out of us for sure. Thanks again maestro!
The lyric video was once again made by Razvan from Absynthe Moon Films, who did a fantastic job capturing the essence of what we stand for as a band.
The lyrics deal about a miserable real life experience, a break-up.
Please enjoy, like, comment, and share.

Power metal legends DRAGONFORCE have teamed up with Brawl Stars, a hit multiplayer mobile game with over 1 billion downloads, to celebrate a brand new character entering the game with an electrifying new song “Song Title Here” and music video! Rocking his way into the Brawl Stars universe from today, Draco is the game's first guitar-wielding Legendary Brawler. With Draco’s love for heavy metal, extreme sports and Dungeons & Dragons, DRAGONFORCE’s new exclusive original track is the perfect headbanging song to welcome this dragon-rider in the most epic, heavy metal way.
Herman Li says:
“Brawl Stars is a hectic, fast-paced game that I love playing in my spare time so when the developers asked us to record a new song about a heavy metal-loving character, we jumped at the chance. I think Brawl Stars fans are going to love this new Legendary Brawler.”
Drew Haycock, Supercell community manager, adds: “I’ve personally been a fan of DRAGONFORCE for almost 20 years now and was stoked when they said they’d record a new song for Draco. Working with the band was an awesome experience and it was incredible seeing them do their thing at the video shoot! They were hyped about the project from the start and are the perfect band to bring Draco’s quirky charm into the musical world.”

FROM ELUVEITIE:
Hey everybody - we’re excited to finally lift the curtain!
Ever since Nicole Ansperger decided to step short and leave Eluveitie for personal reasons and to shift her focus, more than a year ago, it obviously wasn't an easy task to find somebody to fill that gap.
And so we are really happy and thankful to finally announce Lea-Sophie Fischer as Eluveitie's new violinist! Please welcome her to the Elu family!
Some of us have been friends with Sophie for many years already and over time our musical paths crossed quite a few times.
After Nicole's departure Sophie helped us out on the stages of the festivals and open airs. And of course we were as glad as we were proud to get support from such an incredible musician. While we grew together as a group, things became very clear and the time's just the right one to join forces for good!
Sophie comments: "It's an honor to continue the legacy of Eluveitie's violinists and I will give it my everything. We have found each other, both on a personal and musical level, so joining the band feels like coming home. Can't wait meeting you all! Love, Sophie"
And who knows... maybe the next adventure is just around the corner? Stay tuned!

FROM KARL SANDERS:
The Underworld Awaits Us All! Fuck yes it does. New album announcement and first single is out today.
The Underworld Awaits us All has 11 new Nile tracks, and artwork from Xaay. The lineup on the new album is 5 of us:
George Kollias on drums, Myself (Karl) on Guitar and vocals , Brian Kingsland on Guitar and vocals, Zach Jeter on Guitar and vox , and Daniel Vadim Von on Bass. For the touring lineup, Brian will not be touring, it will be 4 - Karl, George, Dan, and Zach, with vocal duties handled by Zach, Daniel and Myself.
For those asking the question, “Why is there a guy singing and not playing guitar?": Featured in the new Chapter video out today, in the studio recording of the album the Chapter track has vocals from Brian, Karl, Zach, and guest Jason Hohenstein on BGV, George on drums, Karl and Zach on guitars, and Dan on bass. Although the live lineup will only be the 4 of us, as Brian doesn’t tour anymore, we really wanted Brian to be in the video, as Brian did a killer job with his vocal parts on this song and all across the new record.
So – yeah Brian does vocals in the Chapter song, but not guitars on this particular song. In the spirit of Metal Brotherhood and fun,
Brian joined in for the video. The video is not meant to be taken ultra-literally. The song itself is a tongue-in-cheek take on Ancient Egyptian texts concerning Evil Monkeys in the Underworld by the Lake of Fire tormenting the damned. It's clearly not REAL, it’s a music video, and not meant to be taken hyper realistically in the first place. So in a nutshell, Brian's vocals are on the record, so he is in the video. We were 5 people on the record, the touring lineup will be 4 people.
So check out the video, and let us know what you think in the YT comments!

SOME RIGHTS RESERVED WITHOUT PREJUDICE Protect Yourself
BTW, ITP was EDITED in FULL (the entire journal in 2013 (Years ago-ITP looks and reads different huh?.
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.
Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal and welcome to ITP \m/
