BAALZAGOTH: POST VIDEO FOR NEW TRACK "EXCOMMUNICATUS AB HUMANITATE"

 May be an image of text that says 'EXCOMMUNICATUS AB HUMANITATE'

 Polish death metal warriors BAALZAGOTH have posted a video for  "EXCOMMUNICATUS AB HUMANITATE", a track from the bands anticipated new release  "NO GOD, NO SAVIOR", due to be unleashed 6/6/2026 via PUTRID CULT. 

 

 

 

 BAALZAGOTH, via BANDCAMP, are streaming  the bands anticipated new release "MORBID PERSECUTIONS", unleashed 4/15/2022 via MARA PRODUCTIONS. 

 

 

 

 

FROM SOLID ROCK PR: 

 

BAALZAGOTH strikes without mercy - first blow from the new album.
BAALZAGOTH returns with the most ruthless release of their career - "No God, No Savior" which is a manifesto of extremity, chaos, and total negation.
Blackened death metal in its purest crushing form.
FFO: Morbid Angel, Incantation, Immolation, Deicide
-
BAALZAGOTH, a band from Polish town Kostrzyn nad Odrą, makes it clear from the very first notes: there is no room for compromise, salvation, or mercy. Embracing the aesthetics of blackened death metal, the band delivers music that is brutal, direct, and consciously aimed at religious dogma. Their sound is a sonic execution - heavy, dense, and permeated with a darkness that not only accompanies but overwhelms.
Baalzagoth draws from the hellish legacy of the death metal scene—you can hear echoes of the merciless power of Morbid Angel, the suffocating chaos of Incantation, the ritualistic severity of Immolation, and the extreme intensity of Hate Eternal. However, this is neither a copy nor a nostalgic homage - the band takes what is heaviest, most sinister, and most primal in death metal, then ramps up the brutality to the breaking point.
Since its inception, Baalzagoth has consistently forged its own identity: anti-religious, dark, and ruthless. Their compositions are tightly constructed, precisely constructed—massive riffs, a crushing rhythm section, and a tempo that leaves no room for breath. This is music that attacks head-on, without embellishment, without flirting with lightness - pure, primal power.
The culmination of this journey is the album "No God, No Savior" - the band's most polished, ruthless, and mature release. It's intense and conceptually coherent material, consciously evolving their existing sound toward even greater extremes and expressiveness.
All music was written and arranged by the band, except “Auto da fé” which was composed, performed and recorded by Michał “Joda” Sobczyński. Ika Klimaszewska (soprano vocals & vocal samples) appears as a guest on the tracks: “Satan”, “Excommunicatus ab humanitate”, “Auto da fé” and “Gloria Apostasiae”. Drums were recorded at Sound of Records Studio by Mikołaj Kiciak (Blindead 23, Leash Eye), guitars at Tetra Wave Studio by Krzysztof Kostencki (Morrath, Sothoris), and the material was subsequently recorded, edited, mixed, and mastered at Heinrich House Studio by Filip Hałucha (Azarath, Behemoth, Hate). The album cover artwork was conceived by Oktavius, with artwork and layout created by Ksenia Kot, based on a photograph by Maciej Pieloch. Band photography was done by Maciej Pieloch (Batushka, Hate).
The band comments on the upcoming release: "No God, No Savior is not just an album—it's a manifesto of extremes. A sonic declaration of the rejection of the idea of salvation, an affirmation of chaos, and the triumph of darkness over the illusion of meaning. Baalzagoth doesn't attempt to reinvent death metal. We remind you what this genre truly is: aggression, negation, and the unbridled violence of sound. No compromise. No god. No salvation."
New studio album "No God, No Savior" will be released on June 6, 2026 in digital format and on CD via the Polish underground label Putrid Cult (https://www.putridcult.pl/baalzagoth-no-god-no-savior-cd...). Below you can stream lyric video for the single "No God, No Savior".

FROM XTREEM MUSIC: 

 

REVOLTING 1st song, cover art and tracklist for new album!!
Listen to the first advance single here:
All Digital platforms:
Pre-save album on Spotify & Deezer:
Swedish Death Metal force REVOLTING strike back with full intensity, unleashing the first advance single along with the complete tracklist and cover artwork of their tenth studio album, “Supernatural Anthems”. A first taste that makes it clear their machinery is still running at full power, with no intention of slowing down.
The album is set for release on June 4th through Xtreem Music on CD and digital formats, and is shaping up to be another relentless dose of filthy, razor-sharp, and infectious Death Metal. No compromises, no frills, no mercy — REVOLTING return to spread the rot once again..
Swedish Death Metal purveyors REVOLTING return stronger than ever with their tenth studio album, “Supernatural Anthems”, once again through Xtreem Music. Since emerging in 2007 under the vision of Revolting Rogga, the band has built a relentless discography rooted in the classic Swedish sound, delivering a steady stream of filthy, catchy, and uncompromising releases that have earned them a solid reputation within the underground scene.
With a career spanning over a decade and a half, and a string of acclaimed albums across labels like FDA Rekotz and Transcending Obscurity, REVOLTING have proven time and again their ability to blend raw aggression with memorable hooks. Their previous works, including “Born to Be Dead” (2022) and their 2024 follow-up "Night of the Horrid", reinforced their position as one of the most consistent acts in modern old-school Death Metal.
Now, with “Supernatural Anthems”, the band delivers another crushing dose of rotten riffs, relentless grooves, and infectious darkness. A new chapter of pure, unapologetic Death Metal that keeps the filth alive and kicking.
Tracklist for "Supernatural Anthems" is as follows:
1. Supernatural Anthem
2. At Dusk They Rise
3. Upon the Chopping Block
4. Undead Wife, Happy Life
5. Those Who Never Lived
6. The Dead are Craving
7. Dungeon Overture
8. A Midnight Massacre
9. The End so Near
Release date for "Night of the Horrid" will be June 4th, 2026 through Xtreem Music on CD & Digital formats.

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

MEGASCAVENGER 1st song, cover art and tracklist for new album!!

Pre-save album on Spotify & Deezer:
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)
