Swedish melodic hard rockers, Art Nation, are pleased to share their new single and accompanying video, โHaloโ, from their upcoming new studio album, The Ascendance, set for release on April 25 via Frontiers Music Srl. Watch the clip below, and pre-orer The Ascendance at ffm.to/artnationascendance
Following their Inception album, the new record The Ascendance delivers a huge, anthemic, more modern melodic oriented album, powerful and energic.
The new album pushes more the pedal towards a modern heavy sound, without losing the typical Art Nation trademark with memorable melodies. Songs like โHaloโ, โThunderballโ or โUnstoppableโ are perfect examples of what you can expect from the new album: an undeniably enjoyable sonic delight.
Alexander Strandell expressed his excitement for the release: โIt feels amazing to finally share the new album โ a true reflection of our journey as a band. Over the years, weโve explored different sounds, challenged ourselves creatively, and pushed boundaries to find the essence of who we are. Through experimentation and growth, weโve shaped our identity, and The Ascendance represents the culmination of that process.โ
โThe album consists of eleven signature Art Nation songs, filled with powerful melodies, unforgettable choruses, intricate musical elements, and, most importantly, pure passion. This record is a testament to everything weโve worked for, and we canโt wait for you to experience it with usโ, he added.
Talking about the new single, he said: โโHaloโ is the final single before the album release, and it feels amazing to share one of the most epic tracks with a truly catchy chorus. This track is definitely a teaser of whatโs to come.โ
Hailing from Gothenburg, Sweden, Art Nation is the rising force in modern melodic metal. Founded by Alexander Strandell and Christoffer Borg, the band is gaining acclaim for their astonishing hit-writing potential, their truly captivating sound and dynamic live performances.
With his powerful and emotive vocals, Alexander Strandell has captivated audiences on Swedenโs National TV and radio. A nominee for โRock Voice of the Yearโ, his commanding stage presence and vocal mastery set him apart as one of the most dynamic performers in rock today.
A producer and guitarist celebrated for his precision and creativity, Christoffer Borg has worked with iconic names like Amaranthe, Anthrax, and Evergrey. His exceptional skills bring a polished and melodic edge to Art Nationโs signature sound.
Known for his incredible technical prowess and musicality, Richard Svรคrd has played with a lot of musicians and also toured with thrash legends Death Riders. His deep grooves and intricate bass lines lay the foundation for Art Nationโs unstoppable momentum.
Their debut album, Revolution, in 2015 received great reviews, earning them nominations at the esteemed โGaffa Awardsโ in Sweden. In 2016, they penned the official anthem for the โGothia Cupโ soccer tournament, performed live on national TV, and in sold-out stadiums.
After touring excessively in and around their home country, sharing stages with iconic bands like Nightwish, Twisted Sister and Hammerfall, as well as playing all the relevant festivals such as Sweden Rock, Art Nation now seem destined for the break out all over Europe.
Alone by focusing on the Nordic countries, combined with the bandโs growing presence on platforms like Spotify, the band is reaching over 1.2 million streams in the past 28 days, bringing the bandโs total to over 15 million streams across all tracks.
Art Nation are now gearing up for an exciting new album release in 2025 and, on top of that, for the first time the band is seriously expanding their conquest outside the Nordic borders by teaming up with Decibel Touring for more concert performances throughout the entire European continent and the UK.
Lineup:
Alexander Strandell โ Vocals
Christoffer Borg โ Guitar
Richard Svรคrd โ Bass

From the upcoming album โThe Ascendanceโ out on April 25, 2025. Pre-Order/Pre-Save here: ffm.to/artnationascendance"Halo" Lyrics:I start to wonder, w… ๐ฆ๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐น๐ฒ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฉ๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ผ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐น๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ: ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐ข๐ ๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ข๐ฆ๐ง – ๐ ๐ฌ ๐ฆ๐๐ก๐๐ง๐จ๐๐ฅ๐ฌ
Genrefluid visionaries, Lord Of The Lost, captivate with their first single, โMy Sanctuaryโ, and its official music video, offering a mesmerizing glimpse into their upcoming full-length album, OPVS NOIR Vol. 1, set for release on August 8 via Napalm Records.
With โMy Sanctuaryโ โ and the coming entire OPVS NOIR trilogy as a whole โ the #1 charting band returns to a much heavier sound compared to their latest hits. Razor-sharp riffs blend seamlessly with gothic harmonies and orchestral grandeur, while Chris Harmsโ deep baritone vocals create a sonic sanctuary, inviting listeners to embrace their inner darkness.
A work, a transformation, a re-entry into the melancholic self โ OPVS NOIR is in no danger of becoming an offspring of understatement, neither in its title nor in its musical opulence. And rightly so: Not only will it be the first album as a six-piece band, but it also marks the beginning of an album trilogy, available in multiple editions, including, of course, strictly limited collectorโs items. Each volume contains 11 songs, totalling 33 tracks that not only conclude the eccentric chapter of Blood & Glitter, but also initiate an uncompromising return to the dark core of the band.
Chris Harms about the new single: โWe have 33 songs to choose from, but which one will be the first single to pave the way into a new era and mark the beginning of a trilogy? We chose โMy Sanctuaryโ, which for us is a kind of gateway song that opens the door to the world of OPVS NOIR. It shows that darkness isnโt just about sadness โ for many of us, darkness is a life force.โ
What is the essence of Lord Of The Lost in 2025? That is one of the questions OPVS NOIR Vol. 1 fearlessly begins to answer. Once again, the band proves not only musical excellence but also masterful craftsmanship: Produced by Chris Harms, recorded, mixed, and mastered at the legendary Chameleon Studios in Hamburg, the 11 tracks hit with a force and brilliance that immediately transport us into a dark yet colourful ballroom. From there, the tone is set: Dark Wave Metal on an amphitheater scale.
Chris Harms about the album: โDarkness, melancholy, loneliness โ all words that often have negative connotations, that we may associate with danger, sadness and loss, and not without reason. But darkness can also be security, melancholy the warm and sentimental feeling of our memories, and loneliness becomes necessary silence, peace and inner contemplation. OPVS NOIR is a travel guide, or perhaps also a travelogue, through the dark sides of our inner world, which so often move precisely in the area of tension between what we emotionally categorize as positive or negative. And with Vol. 1, all of this is just the beginning of this 3-part journeyโฆโ
OPVS NOIR Vol. 1 will be available in multiple formats, including strictly limited editions. Pre-order at napalmrecordsamerica.com/lordofthelost
OPVS NOIR is not only a musically exciting step but also a bold one! This becomes clear when looking at Lord Of The Lostโs immediate past: support for Iron Maiden on two European tours, followed by their first North American shows in over a decade, sold-out headlining tours, participation in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, a #1 chart entry with the previous album Blood & Glitter, celebrated performances at the biggest festivals worldwide โ they even had the honour of meeting King Charles in person. Hand on heart: How easy would it have been to keep riding this wave of success just a little longer? But thatโs not how Lord Of The Lost operates โ the only constant remains change.

Everything is new, yet every note feels familiar. Behind each chorus awaits a surprise, in every line, a new door opens to further uncharted paths within the LOTL universe. This band takes the expectations of its ever-growing fanbase and molds them into songs that transcend genre boundaries โ and turn moments into monuments that carry us all along: No one lost behind!

Blackgaze as a genre has always been so interesting to me. As a huge fan of shoegaze, and a huge fan of black metal, I could have never dreamt of the cocktail these two antithetical genres could have made. Alas, the atmospheric and wall-of-sound aspects of blackgaze are just a few of the elements that keep me coming back to the genre time and time again. This being said, when I find that there is a new blackgaze band plying their trade, I become ecstatic and want to take a deep dive. This is what happened with the American band EMBRIUM and their very strong debut album โTimekeeperโ.
THE BAND
Founded in 2019 in San Francisco, EMBRIUM creates a hauntingly beautiful amalgamation of black metal brutality with the ambient aura of shoegaze to perfection. The moody quintet consists of Joey Menicucci on guitar and songwriting duty, Matt Baird and Ayani Hayashi tackling the rhythm section of drums and bass respectively, Mosahefu on vocals and guitar, and Jade Forsythe taking on lead vocal duty.
THE ALBUM
The album kicks off with โThe End Of The Laneโ, which begins with a beautiful, nearly-two-minute instrumental overture before that familiar wall-of-sound hits the listener right in the eardrums. This kind of trickery is what is so fascinating about modern metal with influences outside of the genre. Getting the listener out of their comfort zone helps to keep the track listing fresh and revitalized.
As the album progresses, we are treated to gorgeous and eerie instrumentation along with harsh and crestfallen tones. Tracks like โThe Witcheningโ and โDream Huntersโ utilize a dreamy clean vocal, reminiscent of an episode of Twin Peaks to cut the tension of the harsh black metal soundscapes.
My standout track on the album would have to be โEclipseโ. This five-and-a-half-minute masterpiece plays with the conventions of the genre by manipulating that wall of sound. As a drummer myself, I am amazed by the work of Matt Baird, consistently switching between blast beat sections to tasty licks throughout the length of the tune.
THE VERDICT
EMBRIUMโs debut pleasantly surprised me. It is complex and fresh enough to catch the eye of seasoned listeners, yet approachable enough to not seem too out of the realm of mainstream acceptance. I really enjoyed it and I think you will too. โTimekeeperโ is to be independently released on March 14th. Give it a listen and a buy!

When this band DAZR came to my attention a few weeks back via YouTube, I was immediately blown away by the straight forward, balls to the wall sound of pure and un-restrained heavy metal and I knew the world needed to know about them too.
DAZR is a classic Hard Rock band out of Greenville, South Carolina bringing raw power of rock and roll back to its roots in a time where polished production often drowns out the heart and grit of music. DAZR fills the void by getting back to the basics, no auto tune, no backing tracks just music that’s alive, gritty and full of raw energy. It’s loud, it’s passionate. Our live shows? Intense, we’re all in giving you a performance that feels like a celebration of everything rock music stands for, we’re not trying to recreate the past, we’re bringing that timeless energy into the present blending the classic sound with our own unique style, it’s an experience that feels fresh, yet like something you’ve been missing for a long time. If you’ve never heard of us before, here’s what you can expect: a stripped down no-frills rock show that’s just as real as it gets, no overproduced fluff, no distractions – just straight up hard hitting rock n roll. So if you’re ready for a new kind of rock experience, one that’s loud, passionate and full of soul, join us. We don’t just play music- WE LIVE IT!!!! Guaranteed you’ll feel every note!!!
The debut self-titled EP was self-released on March 1, 2025 and is available through the bandโs website www.thebanddazr.com
Opening with โUnsatisfiedโ that comes in with an early VAN HALEN vibe courtesy of the guitar styling of Grant Hendrix (Eddie would be so proud) delivering a strong dose of crunchy and gnarly crouch grabbing riffs preceding the commanding vocals that help deliver the pure rapture of old school, down and dirty heavy metal. โToughโ opens by teasing ever so slightly with a Glam metal sound that had me putting on my spandex and reaching for the hair spray, but just as soon as I got the pants pulled up, BAM, punched right in the balls with a castrating fury of bombastic and brawny riffs over riding the brazen musical landscape lambasting and peeling the paint off my walls, now the only problem is getting these damn spandex off with hair spray in my eyes. โCanโt Take it Anymoreโ is a magnificent rock ballad that gave me chills with the passionate and heartfelt vocals that create a sensual atmosphere of anticipation blasting into fast, turbo riffs bundled together by the razor sharp backing rhythm section, an absolute masterful song. โNight Ladyโ has an intoxicating eeriness with a heavy tempo, scorching and immersing into a cauldron of muscular adrenaline riffs balanced perfectly with raw and edgy vocals.
Iโve had this EP spinning non-stop on my playlist over the last two weeks in the car, at the gym, at home and at my parole board meeting (kidding, just seeing whoโs paying attention). DAZR is a band that combined the parameters of old school hard rock headbanging with a flair and twist of unique and captivating musicianship that is robustly merged with tried-and-true quintessential rock lyrics. For such a young band to deliver a polished and memorable debut EP is damn straight impressive and gives us all hope that this next generation of metal is in good hands.

When considering which Bang Dream/Bandori bands are worth inclusion here at Dead Rhetoric, it seemed time for the violin-led rock act of Morfonica to have a bit of time in the limelight with the release of their second full-length album in Polyphony. For those unfamiliar, Bang Dream is a mobile game in which many of the bands included feature real life concerts with their seiyuus at the helm of their in-game characterโs instrument. The standout of Morfonica is that of violinist Yashio Rui (voiced by Ayasa, who also plays in the symphonic metal/rock band East of Eden in a similar role), which drives their sound in a uniquely symphonic route.
While those who follow the mobile game, or at least the groupโs released singles, Polyphony isnโt going to showcase much in terms of โnewโ content, but thatโs more or less expected from much of Bandori at this point. What it does do, is collect another group of colorful tracks from the band that showcases the different aims of their sound. The new track, โPolyphonyscape,โ opens the album and feels like a good way to introduce new fans to their sound. Itโs a sprawling, epic cut that leads with itโs standout and playful violin work from Ayasa, features a soaring atmosphere that swells at the chorus, augmented by some driving riffs and galloping drumwork that gives the band some solid footing. Vocalist Kurata Mashiro (voiced by Shindou Amane) has a charismatic voice that lifts the melodic end and is a perfect blend with the sweeping and elegant sound of the music behind her.
The music keeps the violin-forward approach regardless of the track, and itโs what unifies the sound of Morfonica. From the holiday-themed โMerry Merry Thanksโ that gallops with spirited violin and riffing, from the synth-heavy waltzing of โTilika Monica-lilaโ to the cheery soaring sounds of โSonorous,โ thereโs never a lack for hooks as you move through the release. To highlight a few favorites, thereโs the more frenetic โTempest,โ which emphasizes a urgent tempo and low bass rumbles, as well as a truly moรฉ usage of gang vocals at the chorus that gives it a certain charm to contrast the more visceral dynamic behind them. โSecret Dawnโ is a more moody and atmospheric cut, with some absolutely stunning violin work that all but dances around the music at points, coupled with a beautiful chorus. โไธก็ฟผใฎBrillianceโ is another more uptempo song, with an energetic burst of violin and classical guitar riffing with playful bass sprinkled in, among some more atmospheric moments to give it some even greater textures. Lastly is the very melodic โAngelโs Ladder,โ which uses some more melancholic strings despite itโs sometimes driving tone, and has one of the more soaring and catchy choruses on the album as a whole.
If you are in the mood for more elegant symphonic rock with impressive violin work throughout, Morfonica provides a thrilling experience. Polyphony draws you into itโs fantastical soundscape and captures an intricate yet upbeat feeling thatโs sure to earworm itโs way into your brain. While it doesnโt hit quite as hard and heavy as other Bandori acts like Ave Mujica, Roselia, or Raise a Suilen, Morfonica has a special sound all to their own that grab some open-minded metal fans as well and this is a great starting point for those new to the act.

What it does do, is collect another group of colorful tracks from the band that showcases the different aims of their sound. The new track, โPolyphonyscape,โ opens the album and feels like a good way to introduce new fans to their sound. Itโs a sprawling, epic cut that leads with itโs standout and playful violin work from Ayasa, features a soaring atmosphere that swells at the chorus, augmented by some driving riffs and galloping drumwork that gives the band some solid footing. Vocalist Kurata Mashiro (voiced by Shindou Amane) has a charismatic voice that lifts the melodic end and is a perfect blend with the sweeping and elegant sound of the music behind her.
The music keeps the violin-forward approach regardless of the track, and itโs what unifies the sound of Morfonica. From the holiday-themed โMerry Merry Thanksโ that gallops with spirited violin and riffing, from the synth-heavy waltzing of โTilika Monica-lilaโ to the cheery soaring sounds of โSonorous,โ thereโs never a lack for hooks as you move through the release. To highlight a few favorites, thereโs the more frenetic โTempest,โ which emphasizes a urgent tempo and low bass rumbles, as well as a truly moรฉ usage of gang vocals at the chorus that gives it a certain charm to contrast the more visceral dynamic behind them. โSecret Dawnโ is a more moody and atmospheric cut, with some absolutely stunning violin work that all but dances around the music at points, coupled with a beautiful chorus. โไธก็ฟผใฎBrillianceโ is another more uptempo song, with an energetic burst of violin and classical guitar riffing with playful bass sprinkled in, among some more atmospheric moments to give it some even greater textures. Lastly is the very melodic โAngelโs Ladder,โ which uses some more melancholic strings despite itโs sometimes driving tone, and has one of the more soaring and catchy choruses on the album as a whole.
If you are in the mood for more elegant symphonic rock with impressive violin work throughout, Morfonica provides a thrilling experience. Polyphony draws you into itโs fantastical soundscape and captures an intricate yet upbeat feeling thatโs sure to earworm itโs way into your brain. While it doesnโt hit quite as hard and heavy as other Bandori acts like Ave Mujica, Roselia, or Raise a Suilen, Morfonica has a special sound all to their own that grab some open-minded metal fans as well and this is a great starting point for those new to the act.

Swedish death is metal for crackheads; a tired, well trodden sound, with fanatics and devout followers always finding room for โjust one moreโ illustration of the genre. Itโs almost impossible to find a review of any modern album that doesnโt inevitably cite Dismember and Entombed as touchstones and reference points, crafting the illusion that thereโs nothing left to offer from such established and boundary-setting aural paintings. Fortunately, a few bands carry the Swedeath torch with pride, and chief amongst them is Wombbath. Certified OGโs of the 90s heyday, theyโve had a major renaissance after reuniting back in 2013, set apart by genre experimentation and straight excellence of songcraft. Our beloved Holdeneye has sung their praises on several occasions, but with his attention focused elsewhere, Iโve leapt at the chance to get that mani-pedi that only the Swedes know how to provide. I hope you brought shampooโฆ
As is Swedeath tradition, the first thing to expect is the generally expected. The guitar tones still buzz with a familiarity like a warm blanket, HM-2 tones carrying out riffy assaults that seem pulled straight from the 90s while feeling refreshingly modern and immediate. Tracks like โBeyond the Abyssโ and โSymphony of Dreadโ flow from Vomitory-infused bounce to the most melodic of At the Gates pomp, with theatricality and violence walking hand in hand. Wombbath exceed at stylistic song craft, slicing and dicing their way from chorus to solo to city leveling chug in equal measure where the aural excess never dominates the excellence of composition. A great track order allows Beyond the Abyss to carry the listener on an aural journey, from the pit ripper of an opening to the doom-laced plodding closer with ebbs and flows of speed, weight, and engagement without ever allowing fatigue or boredom to set in.
While familiarity is part and parcel with the subgenre, Wombbath continue to paint with the most vibrant of colors. Many songs come with violin flourishes and interludes, provided by guitarist Thomas von Wachenfeldt. While not quite going the way of Ne Obliviscaris, such flourishes permeate the album, letting the doomy flow of โConsumed by Fireโ or the atmospheric laden โDeep Hungerโ shine with sparkle and personality. Beyond the Abyss isnโt content to merely cause heads to bang off torsos or trigger air guitar-related arthritis, though both symptoms are to be found in ample measure. Bells, synths, choirs, a smattering of clean vocals, all frosting and sprinkles on a very deathly cupcake manage to set this release apart with its own character and flavor beyond being โmerelyโ more Swedish death, and all without a dose of gimmickries or inauthentic utilization to be found.
The only downside to such a uniformly well-composed album is the peculiar lack of lethality in tone. Wombbath trade stock in the required chainsaw guitars, but these chords rev with that of an electric-powered rather than gasoline fueled machine. This causes otherwise excellent moments to pass by with less than their deserved impact, with moments like โFaces of Tragedyโ โ sporting a stank face inducing chuggathon worthy of modern Cannibal Corpse โ suffering the most. Swedeath this aggressive and artistic is a rare treat, and when I find it, I want my speakers to tremble in terror. Instead, the tone sounds more akin to the most recent Frozen Soul, where excellent riffs give way to a more gentle presentation when a dose of bloodthirst is warranted. Fortunately, this complaint is abetted as the album progresses, but it still feels like a lost opportunity to give such fantastic riffs the last push they need to make a modern-day classic.
Wombbath continue their streak of excellence in execution with nary a clinker or dud to be found. Feral might be more violent and Lik more immediate and Grave more atmospheric, but Beyond the Abyss stands ready to remind any and all that, in the words of our Angry Overlord, at the end of the day death metal still rules the roost. Trimming down the album length to a reasonable runtime1 and keeping the tonal palate refreshed and vibrant with instrumental diversity has paid major dividends, cementing the band as modern-day forerunners of a founding father genre. If youโre still counting down the years till the hopeful and hypothetical new Dismember album, or if your affections for the genre have run stale in a world filled with Entombed clones, Wombbath are here to remind the world that the genre is still filled with vibrancy and potential. Hop on in! The womb waterโs fineโฆ..

The first release from death metal legends Cancerโs upcoming album, Inverted World, is out now. โAmputateโ channels its dark intensity from the brutal atrocities of Belgiumโs colonial rule in the Congo during the late 1800s, weaving a harrowing tale of violence and suffering.
Stream/download โAmputateโ at orcd.co/cancer_amputate and find a lyric video for the track, created by Matt Vickerstaff, below.
Set for release on April 25 via Peaceville Records, the new album, Inverted World, marks a blistering return to the bandโs signature fusion of serrated riffing, guttural vocals, and unrelenting aggression โ a true descent into dystopia, corruption, and existential horror.
Cancer burst onto the UK extreme metal scene over thirty-five years ago and quickly established a strong global following over the early part of their careers, primarily due to the release of the legendary debut To The Gory End, swiftly followed by the equally revered Death Shall Rise album, which notably also featured death metal maestro James Murphy on lead guitars. The bandโs trajectory increased further with follow-up opus The Sins Of Mankind, leading to a stint with major label EastWest under Warner Music.
2018 saw the band return after a long period of inactivity for comeback release and Peaceville debut Shadow Gripped, which reunited the original core trio for the first time since 1995 for a stellar nod to the glory days of old; savage, thrash-tinged deathly odes to the macabre, gaining the approval of old fans and a new generation of death metal maniacs alike.
In a year which also marks the 35th anniversary of the genre-classic debut, To The Gory End, founding member and vocalist/guitarist/songwriter John Walker leads a now-revamped quartet for Cancerโs seventh full-length album in the form of Inverted World. A relentless attack of masterful song-writing and brutal hooks, Inverted World explores the dark and murky world of manipulation and barbarity both past and present, with themes relating to shadowy entities and cult mentalities, including the brainwashing of people into compliance and the weaponizing of religion. And as an extra treat for the bandโs fanbase in particular, the track โCorrosiveโ also resurrects the old and familiar tale of the acid bath murderer.
Inverted World was recorded at The Empty Hall Studio with Simรณn Da Silva, and mixed by V. Santura (Triptykon, Obscura, Pestilence, Dark Fortress etc) at Woodshed Studio.
Inverted World will be released on limited purple vinyl, black vinyl, CD and digitally. Vinyl editions include printed inner sleeve featuring full lyrics, CD edition includes 12-page booklet with full lyrics.

Swedish band Streetlight, formed by producer, songwriter, guitarist, and lead vocalist Johannes Hager, appeared in 2023 with their debut album, aptly titled, Ignition. Drawing influences from great Eighties peers like Journey, Toto, Foreigner and more the quintet was intent on developing a classic AOR melodic rock sound, and the album was well-received by AOR fans. Now, the band returns with their sophomore follow up, Night Vision.
Founder Johannes Hager comments on the new album: It’s been such a joy for us to record our sophomore album Night Vision. One could say that the stakes are higher now compared to the debut Ignition, but we felt there are still many untrodden paths for Streetlight, both musically but of course also career wise. We’re still looking back at the AOR heydays, but we’re not going back.
Musically, Streetlight is hitting all same characteristics they developed with their first album: solid song melody and vocal harmony, twin guitar harmony, vigorous rock groove, catchy choruses, bright synths for accent and ambience, and spry guitar solos. It’s mash up of Seventies and Eighties classic AOR deja vu all over again.
Some fine rambunctious rockers arrive with Captured In The Night, End Game, Long Distance Runner, and especially the Eighties inspired Straight To Video. Having something of a West Coast feeling are Fly With Eagles and Leanna. An AOR album would not be AOR without some ballads (notably about love) including Where Did Love Go and Learn To Love Again.
All said, if you’re a fan of classic AOR melodic rock made relevant for today, you will enjoy the entertaining and superb song craftsmanship of Streetlight’s Night Vision, a successful follow-up to their debut Ignition. Easily recommended.
