BREATHE ATLANTIS
have released their new album
'Overdrive'
The album ยปOverdriveยซ, already announced for March 18, is eagerly awaited and after successful five single releases in the run-up, the next long-player of the Essen band should convince even the last metal critic.
Following their last release ยปSoulmadeยซ, their new style relies more on big, heavy riffs and driving, powerful drums.
Nico Schiesewitz's relentless, bone-sawing shouts make you cringe until the stadium chorus hits you right in the pit of your stomach.
BREATHE ATLANTIS have matured like good wine:
catchy songs that encourage sing-alongs, brutal mosh parts, and refreshingly honest lyrics that don't sugarcoat anything are the product of a 2-year writing and studio phase, with the result that ยปOverdriveยซ will be a milestone for BREATHE ATLANTIS.
BREATHE ATLANTIS have gained a lot of experience over the past few years; having played countless shows with big international bands like SUM 41, MEMPHIS MAY FIRE, ATTILA, BURY TOMORROW,
CROSSFAITH or SLAVES, plus excessive touring throughout the
EU supporting ANY GIVEN DAY, TO THE RATS AND WOLVES, IMMINENCE, and slots on top German festivals.

from Thessaloniki, Greece have released their new album entitled
'Void Moments Of Inertia'
Once Upon A Winter - Post Rock band from Thessaloniki, GR - announced the release of their 4th album Void Moments of Inertia.
ยซLoneliness is the suffering of our time.
Even if we're surrounded by others, we can feel very aloneยป
Once Upon A Winter with Void Moments of Inertia, have managed to balance heavy and melodic sounds, giving space to the senses and leading us from the absolute calmness to the absolute intensity.
An album with pure Post-Rock aesthetics, that displays in every way the gloriousness and the beauty of the genre.
Emotion and melody that make the listener see the world through a different light and get lost in its magic.
Loud guitars, high tempo drums and heavy bass
on one hand โ unexpected, heart-warming and beautifully performed saxophone solos, sweet violins and enchanting piano compositions on the other, all harmonized as one.
Blackgaze that manages to elevate the songs to dreamy and peaceful, give them a romantic aspect - in a silent way - and right after, to crush them in whirlpools of intensity and dynamism.
'Void Moments of Inertia' is an album full of contrasts.
rock and metal bands
appeal to the World
As you know, Ukraine is now suffering from Russian aggression.
The invaders did not just come to take our land.
They want to destroy us as a nation, to destroy our identity, our race.
The old sick devil with gigantic ambitions, gives orders to destroy everything in his path.
Russian Nazis are killing civilians, bombing schools, maternity hospitals and clinics.
They are holding thousands of people hostage, they are not even giving us the opportunity to provide the population with medicine, water and food.
We - Ukrainian rock and metal musicians - appeal to you, your listeners:
listen to us, help us, stop the war.
These are real voices of real people.
The war is not far away.
The war is here.
Right now many of us are forced to leave our families, jobs, homes and protect ourselves and our families.
Many musicians dropped their instruments and picked up machine guns.
Many musicians are forced to leave their homes and save their children and loved ones.
Many musicians became volunteers.
We offer you the appeal of Ukrainian musicians.
We would be grateful if you could help bring our voices to the world.
We understand that many will feel uncomfortable, painful and bitter, but this is the reality in which anyone can end up being.
Hear us, please!
Save the world.
the ukrainian rock and metal musicians
their journey,
with the release of an exciting
new track
'Some say all you need is a cult-like boyband of chickens.
Some say all you need is love.
Wisdom is abundant in both.'
Establishing their status as THE quintessential cult chicken boy-band of 2022, Allen's Hand is back with their exciting new single Figurine.
Built off of Eggstein's dark distorted Deftone-esque riff, the track flows into chorus harmonies that today's Alice In Chains would be jealous of, which in turn gives way to a sinister guitar solo.
'Figurine' explores the subconscious attraction to pain as a source of meaning, and addiction as a coping mechanism.
Leaving the narrator to realize, in their translucid state,
"you don't want what you think you want".
Allen's Hand integrates us mockingly and slowly into their society.
Recommendations were made with the track 'Rise Of The Chicken King', followed by their anthem 'Re-Pack Your Bags'.
'Figurine' on the other hand is here to sink us deeper into the abyss.
When addiction rears its ugly head, be uglier.
Life hits you hard but not as hard as their riffs.

weโre here to keep the damn thing movingโ.
Ian Voltage is a rock band formed in Helsinki, Finland, in 2019.
The band draws influences from legends such as Guns Nโ Roses and Alice In Chains, adding some heavier stuff in the mix as well,
while still doing their own thing.
The band released their debut EP โSpring of Turmoilโ
on the 2nd of March 2022.
The EP includes five songs and the first single โG.F.W.โ was released
as a music video on the 11th of February.
Teppo Ristola was responsible for directing and filming the video.
Ian Voltage played its first gig
on the 3rd of March in Bar Loose, Helsinki.
The next gig will be on the 6th of May at Restaurant Torvi, Lahti
and theyโre hungry for more!
The songs from Spring of Turmoil EP are all written by Ian Voltage.
The recordings were made at Lammaskallio Audio in Tuusula
with sound engineer Jussi Ruohola.
Esa Orjatsalo was responsible for mixing and mastering.
Starting with a strong bass intro, Turmoil refers to the name of the EP and is therefore also suitable as the opening track of the release.
The main riff makes you wanna bang your head,
while the choruses apologize the caused neck damage.
The song is about the worldโs recent chaotic times
and unfortunately it is still relevant.
...to continue, please go to the next side...

IAN VOLTAGE
have released their debut EP
โSpring of Turmoilโ
G.F.W., Guilty, Frozen & Wrecked,
is the bandโs first song theyโve worked on together.
Maybe thatโs why it was a natural choice as the first single and music video as well.
The person in the story has drifted into the eye of the storm in his life and is waiting for his savior.
Nova
a reference to a new beginning or an exploding star?
This beautiful rock ballad grows into massive spheres towards the end, and listeners have told us that Nova has some radio hit potential.
But has it?
You decide!
After the ballad, Hummingbird Heart
offers some kick ass rock โnโ roll.
Alcohol and hangover are familiar to many people,
which is why rock bands have been writing songs about these topics for decades.
Ian Voltage has not come to reinvent the wheel, but to keep the damn thing moving.
This straightforward rock track will make its listener's pulse rise.
Quicksand
concludes the release with a melancholy vibe.
Mental health is something that concerns all of us, and it is the source of music writing inspiration for Ian Voltage too.
Do the Bongo drums and Backstreet Boys choruses balance the melancholy vibes of the song?
Take a listen and find out.

DARK THE SUNS
released a first single from their upcoming new album
Finnish melodic metal band Dark The Suns is set to release their yet unnamed fifth studio album later in 2022 via Inverse Records.
The first single 'Kun Aallot Kallioihin Murtuu' is released.
Mikko Ojala commets:
"Kun Aallot Kallioihin Murtuu is the first single from our 5th album. The song speaks about sorrow and grief and how some day you will have to forget and move on with your life."
In 2005 Dark the Suns was founded by Mikko Ojala.
In 2006 the band grew when three new members (bass player Inka, Juha on the keyboards and drummer Markus) joined the band, which signed with Firebox Records that same year.
During 2007-2010 Firebox Records released the band's three full-length albums ('In Darkness Comes Beauty', 'All Ends in Silence'
and 'Sleepwalking in a Nightmare').
The band performed many live shows during these years.
There have been some changes in the line-up over the years,
but Mikko and Inka have been continuously together, making music.
The band was inactive for 2013-2020,
but in 2020 Mikko and Inka decided to resume making music together.
It was a really natural way to continue the band as a duo, because they have written almost all the band's music and lyrics during all these years.
In 2020 and 2021 Inverse Records released four singles
from the band's 4th album Suru Raivosi Sydรคmeni Pimeydessรค.
The album includes ten songs
of melancholic and melodic Finnish metal music.
The band has always described their music as
"Beautiful piano melodies and dark vocals".
Fifth studio album is set to be released later in 2022 via Inverse Records.
