With a crushing soundtrack that often blurs the lines between stoner rock, sludge, doom metal and grunge elements, Man In The Woods transport their listeners to dystopian dark new worlds. Fusing together their critically acclaimed, 2018 debut “Badlands Part One” with the band’s much anticipated successor “Badlands Part Two”, the four-piece has inked a worldwide deal with Argonauta Records for the release of “Badlands” in its entirety!

Unforgiving, merciless, beautiful, Buñuel is the sound of a difficult situation made worse by an unwillingness and an inability to play nice. Buñuel’s unpredictable amalgam of angular rhythms, drum salvos, blitzkrieging guitars and vocals that sound more like threats than promises is post-punk, proto-heavy and arty (as in avant-garde noise).

Swedish Heavy Metal veterans Stalker have signed with Wormholedeath Records a licensing deal for their self-titled debut album, “Stalker”, due for release on February 11th, 2022.

Powerwolf stand for epic metal moments of superlatives and that’s why their masses, as they dignifiedly call their shows, always go one step further. When the wolves call their pack in front of the screen, gigantic things can be expected. “The Monumental Mass: A Cinematic Metal Event” will set new standards as the first streaming event in the band’s history on Friday, December 17th, 2021, at 07:00 pm CET / 01:00 pm EST.
