You wanna know something I can honestly say has never crossed my mind? Wanting to smell like a rockstar, especially one from a nü metal band. I don’t know why but I feel like of all the subgenres they don’t rank very highly in the scent department. But I guess Korn‘s guitarist James “Munky” Shaffer

Philadelphia’s own old-school death/thrashers Spesimin are back with a brand spankin’ new EP full of ghoulish twists and turns sure to make any scuz rocker happy. The new EP entitled Skull Worship features five brand new songs from the malicious trio and simultaneous to it’s release the band is releasing a self-titled compilation of their
Greetings, Decibel readers! I sure hope you like death metal. Although there are lots of new releases this week, there’s a conspicuous glut of blood-soaked death that demands our attention. The coolest part is that all the releases below are from lesser-known acts, which means new pathways for listeners to explore. Don’t get me wrong,
In just four short years, Philly upstarts Unholy Altar have brought no shortage of new followers to worship their brand of second-wave-inspired black metal. Last year, their Veil of Death! Shroud of Nite debut full length even managed to crack Rolling Stone‘s 20 Best Metal Albums of 2024 list. In April, they’ll cast a pall

Tempora Mutantur by Lunar “We’re very excited to present our new album Tempora Mutantur to the world,” the band say about the record. “This album is more thematic rather
Sometimes you know a band kicks ass within the first minute of listening. That’s pretty much what happened when I started listening to “Fiends,” the first song off the new EP from Dejecter. God damn, those vocals are deep and devastating, and those riffs are so catchy! There’s a lot going on here sonically, as
Without the ubiquitous “Dis” in front of their moniker, it would be easy to overlook the fact that Industrial Puke are just as crusty as any of their Swedish compatriots in the genre. Yep, this fivesome—Erik Harald (bass), Mattias Rasmusson (drums), Marko Partanen (lead guitar), Jens Ekelin (guitar), Linus Jägerskog (vocals)—ride a furious D-beat on
Maceration (Photo Credit: Anna Vibeke Johansson – Nation North) For fans of Entombed, Bloodbath, and Invocator, Maceration delivers the crushing sound of Danish death metal like no other. Following their triumphant comeback in 2022 with It Never Ends…, the band is set to unleash their third album, Serpent Devourment, on January 31, 2025, via Emanzipation
We last checked in with Columbus stoner doom quartet Weed Demon in 2018, when they were promoting their debut album, Astrological Passages. Fast forward a few years and Weed Demon have grown as musicians, fleshing their core Sleep-influenced sound out with death-thrash and dungeon synth tendencies. Enter their new, third album, The Doom Scroll, which you can stream
Death rock corpse-shakers New Skeletal Faces ruled all faces on their recent Peaceville Records debut, Until the Night. And starting March 17 you’ll get your chance to see them as they open the 2025 Decibel Tour. But you don’t need to wait until then to hear new New Skeletal Faces material as today the Decibel Flexi Series is proud to
Photo by Anne DePena With their approaching 40th(!) anniversary, SoCal thrash legends Hirax, led by iconic vocalist Katon W. DePena, are set to release their sixth full-length studio album, Faster Than Death. So we’re thrilled to be premiering the influential outfit’s latest single from said album, “Worlds End.” The closing track on the new long-player, “Worlds End” is
I’m not sure if y’all forgot about New Jersey nü-metal band 40 Below Summer, but get down with the program again ya fucks. They’re almost ready to make their return, according to quite a bit of behind-the-scenes footage of them in the studio with engineer Chris Hammill. 40 Below Summer began working on the record, which will be
A couple of days after last Christmas, Nevermore teased their return. Kinda like Jesus, who also “made a return?” I don’t know, I’m running on fumes on this here Lord’s day (in this case, I mean the Lords of Chaos). Their little teaser video claimed a new chapter would rise in 2025 and it seems
Corny or not, I’m low-key into all of Steel Panther‘s antics. They are extra as all hell, and that brings me quite a bit of joy. The revelation of this has basically bitch slapped me in the face, but it’s been 15 years since their debut album Feel the Steel came out. On top of
Voivod have been out here doing cool shit for a while now, but one thing on their list they haven’t tackled yet is scoring a film. It’s something they’ve always wanted to do apparently, and they’re putting feelers out there to see if anyone will bite. The band’s guitarist Daniel “Chewy” Mongrain recently did an
Long-running Norwegian black metal outfit Sarkom are preparing for their latest release, sixth album Exceed in2 Chaos, which is slated for a February 21 release date. In anticipation of the new release, Decibel has the lowdown on the title track. Serving as the opening track to the album, it works as a mission statement for what’s to come on
Berkeley, California rockers The Ghost Next Door are signed to stoner/psych label Ripple Music but their music defies the typical conventions of bands on the label. Though their sound certainly contains core elements of doom and stoner metal, The Ghost Next Door dabble in progressive rock, shoegaze, punk and even thrash metal on last year’s Classic Songs of
Photo by Geert Braekers What do death metal, black metal, hardcore and post-hardcore have in common? If you find yourself in Belgium, the answer is easy: drummer Wim Coppers. A percussionist for over two decades, Coppers claims membership to five bands in Belgium’s vibrant underground scene. It’s not uncommon for groups in his neck of
For the first taste of Ter Ziele‘s debut album, they’re bringing us the heavy, heart-wrenching doom goodness with “This Mortal Coil.” Taken from Embodiment of Death—out February 28 via Tartarus Records—following their debut singles in 2022 and their intense and memorable liver performances. The album promises to be personal, heavy, and memorable. “Amidst a rapid,
I’ve got Dali paintings on my walls, Dali pins on my jacket, will eventually have Dali art on my skin — and for the record I would have bought a Dali watch at the Dali Museum in St. Pete’s, FL if the quality was anywhere in the neighborhood of the asking price — so, why
