Hungarian Death Metal powerhouse DAMNATION reveal a new single taken off their upcoming full-length album, "Fátum" scheduled for February 18th via Pest Records. Check out "A Paraziták Vándorlása" here:
Led by ex-Thy Catafalque guitarist János Juhász, five piece Hungarian Death Metal act DAMNATION recorded and mixed/mastered "Fátum" at Obsidian Sound Studio by Árpád Szenti. The album evokes the most memorable era of Death Metal, in the vein of bands like Incantation, Morbid Angel or Gorefest and many more alike. The cover artwork is signed by Stan Ivan.
With lyrics contemplating on the mortality of the universe, enshrouded by a dark, dense musical atmosphere, "Fátum" is all about one of the earliest fears of humankind: existential angst set in a celestial scale.
A few words about the album from the founder and main songwriter János Juhász: "I am really happy that this album has finally been made, and also thankful that I could make it with such great musicians."

Serbian Black Metal combo KOLAC released the self-titled single that gives name to the upcoming album as well, "Kolac". The band's third album will be released on February 3rd 2024 in collaboration with Pest Records, and pre-orders are now open here:
Here's what the band had to say about the new single: ""Kolac" is THE song on this record. It's the foundation upon which it is laid. The dominating force that drives it. Its aggression, its balance of melody and straight-forward black metal devastation encapsulates what Kolac brings on our third full-length album. Adding to it, the lyrics are the most direct of all written on the album. They paint the picture of a bloody revenge on the holy impalers. The most brutal, unrelenting, utterly furious chorus spews forth the hatred towards all violent missionaries in the history of organized religion. "
Serbian Black Metal commando KOLAC announce the release date for their new, self-titled album, set for the 3rd of February 2024 on Pest Records!
KOLAC's upcoming official effort will be a special one: a self-titled loose concept record featuring 9 new tracks plus intro revolving around the usage of stakes ("kolac" in Serbian language) as punishment methods in the Middle Ages and beyond. Primarily a traditional Black Metal band, KOLAC allows plenty of Thrash Metal touches to enrich their compositions, and the result is a combination of primal fury and energy, with darkened melodies and rhythmic diversity.
Here's what the band had to say about it: "The time has finally come to start showing off what we've been working on for the better part of a decade! The cover artwork, as well as the complete design of our forthcoming, self-titled album was done by Entitatem.Nvll.Arts. His visual craftsmanship has brought all our thoughts and words to your eyes. As we've already revealed, our primary goal was to depict, in sound and lyric, the gruesome and cruel punishment of impalement on religious grounds. What you see on the front cover is a quest of retribution. An effective and clear message that crimes of the so-called righteous are not and will not be forgotten!
The new age of Kolac, coming on February 3rd, 2024!"
The band's new opus is a decade long worth material featuring 8 new tracks of traditional brutal Death Metal with melodic guitar lines, furious rhythm section and wrathful vocals that will surely impress fans of bands like Morbid Angel, Benediction, Gorefest and the likes.
Here's what the band's leader and founding member Moti Rokah had to say about the new collaboration and album: "Our new album Sadistic Missionaries is a milestone in our 25 years journey of pure fun & anger release. The album speaks of those who embrace power to its evil form rather than humanity...
The album is our spoken word against the sadistic corruption that dominates the world and destroys life in every aspect. A huge apprecitation to Pest Records that took us under their wings. Two great friends and talented guests shared their guitar solos on the new album: James Reed of Vile Iniquity (USA) and Liran Aloni of Primaterra (Ger.), Kutna Hora (Isr.), ex-Spawn of Evil."
With 25 years of activity under-belt, SPAWN OF EVIL have released 2 full-length albums prior to "Sadistic Missionaries" and played live intensively throughout the years becoming one of the most representative Death Metal bands in Israel. Check out the video for "Rhea of the Gods" here:
