ABOUT BEHEMOTH:

In the annals of metal there is no band more synonymous with an unswerving commitment to the single-minded defiance of expectation than BEHEMOTH. Over the course of their remarkable 33-year career, these Polish hellraisers – spearheaded by Adam Darski, aka Nergal – are more than just the architects of their country’s legendary extreme metal scene. Over the course of over three decades and twelve albums, Nergal’s singular vision has forged BEHEMOTH into something far more than a mere black metal band. Beyond any confines of genre, they have grown to become nothing less than the personification of rebellion, individuality and unflinching self-expression informed by a literate worldview and worldliness that’s resulted in a locking of horns with everything from the mainstream press to the Polish Catholic church – most notably manifesting in Nergal’s trial for blasphemy in 2010 that only served to expose the deep-seated hypocrisies that his music seeks to challenge.

Interview with Simon Dower (Abramelin)

Arguably the pioneers of death metal in Australia, Abramelin have completed their fourth full length studio album, ‘Sins of the Father’, available now, and released through internationally renowned label Hammerheart Records. Following on from their very well-received 2020 release, ‘Never Enough Snuff’, ‘Sins of the Father’ is an all-out brutal death metal assault on the senses; while lyrically, it continues to push the boundaries of horror and depravity.

Vocalist Simon Dower comments on the new album: ‘Sins of the Father’ is not a themed album, but rather a collection of grotesque tales inspired by massive amounts of extreme horror literature that I devour. We are very happy with the way that ‘Sins of the Father’ has come out; both musically and packaging overall. A lot of time and effort has gone into the Sins artwork to give the fans something special for their collections; something fresh and innovative that we feel no one else has really gone to such lengths before to do. We are also super excited to belt out some tracks from Sins at the forthcoming Pestilence tour, which will also double-up as our East Coast album launch shows.
 
The majority of the tracks on ‘Sins Of The Father’ were written by Matt Wilcock (Ackercocke, Werewolves) with all beats from the legendary David Hayley (Psycroptic). Long time member (in various guises), Rob Mollica (Earth, Butterfly) has even chimed with a song ‘Last Rite’ which brings some great variety in the musical arrangement of the new album. Inspired by 40+ years of horror fiction & film, lyrics by Simon Dower, as they were with ‘Never Enough Snuff’, are a deep exploration into all things grotesque and horrific in nature. With influences drawn from a variety of splatter punk and extreme horror authors, the lyrics, in usual Abramelin style, are not for the faint of heart.

UNDISPUTED TITANS OF THRASH METAL ANNOUNCE AUSTRALIAN TOUR

Bay Area legends TESTAMENT are set to lay waste to Australia in June 2025; their first headline tour since 2010.

Since emerging from the San Francsico Bay Area TESTAMENT have delivered some of the greatest metal anthems of all time. ‘Over The Wall’, ‘Practice What You Preach’, ‘Rise Up’, ‘Into The Pit’, ‘Brotherhood Of The Snake’, ‘Low’, ‘The New Order’, ‘First Strike Is Deadly’... The list of absolute classics seems endless as they unleashed one crushing album after another.

With no shortage of critical acclaim, Testament remain one of the select few bands with 2 albums, (both The Legacy and The New Order) inducted into Decibel Magazine’s prestigious Hall Of Fame, alongside Metallica, Black Sabbath, and Motörhead.

Revolver Magazine included The New Order on their list of 14 Thrash Albums You Need to Own. Guitar World recognized Practice What You Preach as one of the Top 10 Shred Albums of all time. Guitar World called Low as one of the Iconic Albums That Defined 1994. The Formation of Damnation won Best Album at Metal Hammer’s Golden Gods Awards. And released nearly 30 years after the band’s formation, Dark Roots of Earth became their highest-charting album yet!

TESTAMENT have remained steadfast over the course of literal decades; always managing to present the genuine aspects of thrash metal that defines their existence while spreading into unique horizons through new crisp and fascinating sounds.

The worldwide Testament legions only continue to grow with renewed fervour and intensity as one of the most influential acts in heavy metal marches forward, never wavering and always crushing.

“TESTAMENT are still as deadly as they ever were”.

“Titans Of Creation is an adrenaline filled apocalyptic masterpiece, ignore it at your peril.” 9/10 – Gareth Williams – Wall Of Sound

CAVALERA Third World Trilogy Australian Tour with guests ALGOR MORTIS

Cavalera is a name with its fingerprints all over the history of heavy metal, an inspiring family legacy built upon decades of musical aggression, starting all the way back in 1984 in Brazil with Sepultura. Over the last couple of years, Max and Iggor Cavalera revisited their first three releases, Morbid Visions, Bestial Devastation, and Schizophrenia,re-recording them for Nuclear Blast Records with a new level of intensity that impossibly captures the raw, youthful and trademark sounds of these iconic and pioneering releases. January 2025 will see them bring the songs that laid the groundwork for not just their own legacy, but that of both the death and thrash metal genres, to Australia for a series of live offerings that will add yet another chapter to their non-stop commitment to extreme metal.

Joining them on all dates will be the quickly rising Algor Mortis, who have been spewing forth a nasty amalgamation of brutal death metal and beatdown hardcore from the guts of Melbourne’s underground that culminated in 2023’s Stages of Death, a powerful and guttural offering that saw the band quickly signed to the cult US death metal label Maggot Stomp.

You won’t want to miss this once in a lifetime experience of rejuvenated extreme metal history.

TECH N9NE Announces March 2025 Australia and New Zealand Tour With Special Guest Joey Cool

Multi-platinum Hip-Hop Legend and the most Successful Independent Rapper of all-time, TECH N9NE returns to Australia and New Zealand in March 2025 with Special Guest Joey Cool

TECH N9NE is a beast. His ferocious “double time” rapping (rapping twice as fast as the beat without the loss of lyrical cadence) has made him a force to be reckon with since the 90’s. Combine that with his dynamic stage presence and boundary-pushing music, make a TECH N9NE show unlike anything else.

Independent to the core, TECH N9NE has hit the road relentlessly averaging 100 live shows a year! TECH says that after all these years and shows he owes his growing success to his fans – whom he considers “family”.

In 2022 Tech had massive success with ‘Face Off’ which included the rap debut for Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson alongside King ISO and Joey Cool. Rising Kansas City rap phenom, Joey Cool is being hailed as “hidden Gem” within the confines of Strange Music’s diverse roster of talent and will join Tech on this 2025 Tour

TECH N9NE’s live shows feel like a giant party… “its just pure adrenaline”. With the crowd hanging onto his every movement, TECH masterfully guides them through the evening of sonic chaos, feeding off the madness unleashing before his very eyes. No one puts on a show like TECH N9NE. If you haven’t seen TECH N9NE live, now is your chance to fix your mistake. If have already, this is another chance to witness one of the greatest live shows in Hip-Hop, period.

“Tech N9ne’s set was a masterclass in rap showmanship. It was filled with impeccable lyricism, a high-energy performance, and a strong bond between him and his fans”

[Album Review] Opeth – The Last Will & Testament

It’s been quite a while since I have been genuinely excited for a new Opeth album! Don’t get me wrong, Sorceress and In Cauda Venenum had their moments, but I’m an old school Opeth fan, I could put on Blackwater Park, Damnation or Deliverance any time! Well, get excited because the latest album The Last Will & Testament is here and it has that special something that the older fans have been wanting back in the mix for years, the death growl! That’s right, Mikael is screaming once again!

This album is a concept piece, about a gentleman from the post-World War I era, who’s last will and testament is being read to his children and an adopted orphan. I have only read a few of the track lyrics, what has been released so far, and Opeth tells a story well. I am eager to read the rest of the album, or I will just have it on repeat and figure it out as I go, you know, like the old days before The Google! Right from the opening note of Section 1 to the closing note of the epilogue titled, A Story Never Told, you know this is an Opeth album, you know this is a good Opeth album, it has the familiar production and album sound as well as that unbelievable atmosphere that you know they can create.

The biggest change for the band and this album is the addition of Walt Varynen, previously of Paradise Lost and Bodom After Midnight, which is a couple of incredible bands to have on your resume. This is his first album with Opeth and yet, it sounds like he has been writing with them for years, the change blends in seamlessly, it’s incredible.

The album kicks off with Section 1, which immediately sets the tone with some classic Opeth riffs, dark intricate and moody, reminiscent of the older albums. It’s the perfect way to ease the listener into the experience, blending nostalgia and a new perspective, which will hopefully bring some of the pre-Heritage fans back on board. Mikael Akerfeldt’s vocals are always a highlight for me, and he is in fine form, the death growl, which every fan has been crying for returning and having it sound as good as ever! This is what you want!

This is Opeth’s 14th album, and speaking earlier of a nostalgic feel, it has that Opeth sound of playing between the light and the dark. The transitions from growling, heavy sections to the delicate, acoustic driven sounds are flawless, it reminds me of Ghost Reveries. Section 2 has this riff that is a straight-up, four-to-the-floor, hard rock riff that feels like it could be played for days without ever getting old. It’s a masterclass in dynamic songwriting, something Opeth has always excelled at.

Listening to The Last Will & Testament is like reconnecting with an old friend, maybe not one from your distant past like Blackwater Park, but more like someone from the Ghost Reveries or Watershed era. The album has that same comfortable familiarity, full of twists and turns, but never predictable. Opeth has always been a band that rewards patience, and this album is no different. Each listen I found new layers and new intricacies to appreciate.

The Last Will & Testament is a remarkable return to form for Opeth. It has the perfect balance between their progressive edge and the heavier elements that defined their earlier work. It may not be Deliverance or Blackwater Park, but it will be interesting to see where fans put this album against the rest. For long-time fans, this album feels like the one we’ve been waiting for. For newer listeners, it offers an excellent entry point into the world of Opeth, a world filled with darkness, light, and everything in between.
