BLACK VIOLENCE
Biography
Their music is a powerful shock of hard'n'heavy, the epicenter of their musical earthquake is Europe.
Their
name is a naked and raw denunciation addressed to the obscure society
in which we live, their strength is in music: In the last two years the
Black Violence played on many Italian and international stages, not only
live pubs and music clubs but also festivals and contests - to remember
the German tour after the publication of their self-produced EP “Hell
Is Coming”, the Ants Of The Sky Festival and the Pad Is My Home - Rebel
Day of Collegno in 2017, the Sbamfest at the Mothership in Turin in 2018
and three Emergenza Festival editions during which the band had the
pleasure of performing at Hiroshima Mon Amour, El Barrio and, on the
occasion of the semi-final, the “Audiodrome”.
Influenced by the
aggressive mood of the alt metal and the lines of hard rock, the band
offers a very personal sound, with industrial, pop rock and blues,
which, with the intent of moving its steps forward, is able to make
treasure of the past.
Black Metal duo ERNTE just announced to release their debut full-length album, titled "Geist und Hexerei", on December 3rd via Vendetta Records. Inspired
by ancient spirits, as well as cold and barren landscapes, the band's
upcoming record features eight relentless tracks of True Hellvetic Black
Metal with an undeniable preference for Nordic melodies. With "Killing Phantasmagoria", ERNTE just shared a raw & intense insight of what to expect from their upcoming debut.
Watch the video for "Killing Phantasmagoria" here:
Being well aware of how to invade the darker side of your soul, the two members of ERNTE
are by far no strangers to the scene. After almost 20 years of creating
dark ambient music, photography, painting and graphic art, V. Noir decided that it was time to return to the roots: In 2020 his long-time passion for Black Metal found a form of expression in ERNTE, where he is the main songwriter, guitar player and responsible for recording and programming. In Witch N.
(vocals, bass, violin) he found an appropriate and experienced
co-musician, who played bass and violin in the all-girl Doom Band shEver (2003 – 2012, Svart Records / TotalRust Music) before she started as front woman in the Swiss Black/Doom Band Ashtar (since 2013, Eisenwald, Throne Records).
"Geist und Hexerei" has been recorded and mixed by V. Noir between October 2020 and February 2021 and has been mastered by Greg Chandler (Priory Recording Studios, UK). The album will coming out on LP, CD and tape.
Tracklist reads as follows:
01. Prozession (Intro) 02. Betyle (The Holy Stone) 03. When the Moon is Calling 04. The Cold Mists of November 05. Killing Phantasmagoria 06. Montane Mastery 07. The Holy Stone Part II (Interlude) 08. The Ending Void

BENEATH THE SILENCE PRESENT THEIR FIRST SINGLE 'NOWHERE TO GO'
Hailing
from Aarhus, Denmark, BENEATH THE SILENCE break the generic approach to
melodic metal with their ponderous riffs and the strong melodious voice
of front woman Mette Hessellund. Armed with soaring vocals, groovy
riffs and catchy melodies, the quintet is gearing up for the release of
their debut full-length album ‘Black Lights', from which they now
present the first single 'Nowhere to Go' - check out the music video
above.
"'Nowhere to Go' is a good example of the evolution of our sound
since the last release. The soundscape is far more ambient than what we
have done before, which supports Mette's vocals and the story she is
expressing through the lyrics", bassist Søren Stenhøj Drews explains. "It's
about being at a dead end and feeling like there’s no longer any
possibility to go forwards, but only stagnation and loss of purpose,
which eventually leads to giving up and admitting defeat", vocalist Mette Hessellund adds.
Since the band was formed in 2013, they have released two EP’s - ‘Meant
for the Clouds’ (2016) and ‘Phoenix’ (2018). The latter, which was very
well received, has amassed over 2,5 million streams across streaming
platforms with placements on Spotify official playlists such as New
Metal Tracks, New Blood, Kickass Metal and more. BENEATH THE SILENCE are
now getting ready to release their debut album ‘Black Lights’, which
has been produced by Nicklas Sonne (Defecto, Between Oceans,
Malrun). ‘Black Lights’ is set to be released through Prime Collective
February 11th.
The first single 'Nowhere to Go' will be available on streaming at midnight.
