Post-Metal outfit Junius are back with their first new material in over three years with the full-length album “Eternal Rituals for the Accretion of Light” (ERAL) due out on March 3rd, 2017!

“ERAL” marks the completion of their conceptual trilogy which began in 2009 with their evoking LP “The Martyrdom of a Catastrophist”, depicted by Rolling Stone as “a perfect hybrid of Neurosis and The Smiths” followed by 2011's “Reports From the Thresholds of Death”. Junius' latest release, the critically acclaimed 2014 EP “Days of the Fallen Sun”, was lauded by Pitchfork as their “strongest and most sensuous work to date”.

Swedish emotion-driven, post-rock/metal newcomer act Antarktis has signed a record deal with Agonia Records.

The group features two full-time members of In Mourning, who instead of entertaining the fact of being labeled as a side project, decided to dedicate their time & venture off into a territory uncharted by their mother band. Said members are guitarists Björn Pettersson and Tobias Netzell (ex-October Tide), both co-founders. In Antarktis, they're accompanied by vocalist and bassist Daniel Jansson (Ikhon) together with drummer Jonas Martinsson (Me The Tiger, Necrosavant). The band is currently working on a debut album.

Over the course of the last seven years, Bay Area’s King Woman have crafted a sound thoroughly their own – a sound that harnesses the elastic textures and temporality of drone and metallic shoegaze alongside the transcendental, melancholic power of doom.

Their forthcoming full-length “Created in the Image of Suffering” (due out February 24th, 2017, via Relapse Records), picks where their debut EP (“Doubt”; 2014, Flenser) left off while expanding on their sonic palette with a profoundly crafted opus of dirgey, ethereal doom-rock.

French behemoths Gojira have answered fan demands, confirming a headline tour of the UK in March 2017.

The band have just performed to some of their biggest UK audiences to date, supporting rock titans Alter Bridge on their recent arena run.

Described by The Independent then as “absolutely transcendent... challenging, visceral, spectacular, life-affirming, and unique”, on the prospect of a headline tour they continued, “...if you have any interest what-so-ever in seeing one of the best live bands on the planet, it is absolutely essential that you are there”.

UK Tour Dates 2017:
Sat 11th Mar - BIRMINGHAM O2 Academy
