Here's the artwork for the new Veilburner album "All That Glimmers is Gloam".

Band's statement: "Veilburner have once again joined forces with Luciana Nedelea, who has masterfully realized the cover artwork for All that Glimmers is Gloam, the ninth iteration of their ongoing exploration of the consequences born of the Curse and Cause that reside between the blurred lines of the esoteric and the psychologically absurd.

Rather than illustrating a predetermined composition, Luciana immersed herself in the music and lyrics, creating an entirely original piece through her own artistic interpretation. We couldn’t be happier with how beautifully she has brought our world to life."

ITP V.026 WORLD APOCALYPSE: CANADIAN WILD FIRES GIVING OFF SMOKE IN THE MIDWEST and NORTHEAST U.S.A.

Late last night, my smoke detector went off multiple times. I was thinking my upstairs neighbor (Nicole and Wayne Parker) and her husband may be smoking weed in the house as my apartment was smokey. No smoking is allowed in the house, only outdoors.

Now, with the humidity and hot weather in New York and of course, again, the Canadian Wildfires I figure the smoke from the wildfires and the humidity set off my smoke detector.

Hopefully they put out the Canadian wildfires soon.

FROM FROZEN SOUL:

Chris from Frozen Soul here.. we have never canceled a tour before in our existence as a band but recently we have suffered some devastating losses in our families and we made the difficult decision to cancel our August tour next month. As some of you may know our singer Chad sadly lost his father in May when we were on tour and this past Friday July 10th our drummer Matt’s father unexpectedly passed away as well. Loosing a parent is one of the hardest things to go through in life.. We gave it the weekend to discuss moving forward with the tour but right now we decided it would be best to take some extra time off to be with our family’s and help navigate these terrible losses.. we hope everyone understands. Hug your friends and family a little tighter and tell them you love them every chance you get.

The show this coming Saturday @Division Brewing is still happening and we have one more tour to announce for later this year so keep a lookout and we will see yall soon!

DOOM HEART FESTIVAL 2027 4/17/2027 @ SLAUGHTER CLUB, PALERNO, MILAN, ITALY CONFIRM: SAMSARA, ILLUSIONS PLAY, WHEN NOTHING REMAINS, BLAZING ETERNITY

noreply@blogger.com (SPAK) — Wed, 15 Jul 2026 08:00:00 +0000

Promoters for DOOM HEART FESTIVAL 2027, set to take place 4/17/2027 @ SLAUGHTER CLUB, PALERNO, MILAN, ITALY have confirmed SAMSARA, ILLUSIONS PLAY, WHEN NOTHING REMAINS, BLAZING ETERNITY...

FROM DOOM HEART (FACEBOOK):

!!!!! BREAKING !!!!!

Ladies and gentlemen, we are pleased to announce that the 8th edition of our beloved Fest will take place on Saturday, April 17, 2027, once again at the Slaughter Club in Paderno Dugnano, Milan!

Driven by the desire to offer you a bill of the highest emotional level, we return to the stage with five sensational bands, each distinguished by their own stylistic signature, yet united by a strong penchant for intense, deeply melancholic sounds, and peppered with poignant melodies.

In order of appearance:

Ilienses Tree (atmospheric melodic doom / death - IT)

Samsara (atmospheric doom/death - SK - “first italian show”)

Illusions Play (atmospheric doom/death - TUR - “first italian show”)

When Nothing Remains Official (symphonic doom/death - SE - “first italian show”)

Blazing Eternity (Official) - (atmospheric gothic melodic doom/death - DK - “first italian show”)

This year, in addition to the usual event page, the Fest will also have a second sponsorship channel: Instagram, whose page will be ready very soon.

For now, our thanks go to the event's two official photographers: Nicola Belotti Photography (also For The Storms & Veil of Conspiracy singer), who curated the graphics and created this beautiful poster, and Frx FotoReporter X Frx who curated the Instagram page.

Let's say right away that the Bill is fully booked, and we'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the numerous bands who ask us to participate in the Fest every year, showing great interest in our event. This is a source of pride and great satisfaction for us and encourages us to continue our festival journey.

We would obviously like to give them all a chance, but we would have to organize a Fest including hundreds of names and this is obviously impossible, cause we can only choose 5 bands a year.

In the coming days we will post the event page and, in the following weeks, we will present all the bands in detail, with a dedicated post, so... STAY TUNED!

-Morpheus, Doc & Doom Heart Team-

ALAN AVERILL (PRIMORDIAL): INTERVIEWED BY INTO THE NECROSPHERE

noreply@blogger.com (SPAK) — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 15:29:24 +0000

ALAN AVERILL of Irish Celtic black metal warriors PRIMORDIAL was recently interviewed by metal podcast INTO THE NECROSPHERE..

Irish Celtic black metal warriors PRIMORDIAL, via BANDCAMP, are streaming the bands anticipated new release "HOW IT ENDS", unleashed 9/29/2023 via METAL BLADE RECORDS..

FROM INTO THE NECROSPHERE:

This week on Into The Necrosphere, Alan Averill returns to the podcast for one of our most thought-provoking conversations to date. We discuss what it means to become a legacy band, why Primordial's lyrics seem more relevant today than they did thirty years ago, the rise of AI and its impact on creativity, and whether heavy metal is still capable of producing artists with genuine authenticity and staying power.

We also explore the changing nature of the music industry, the pressures of growing older in extreme metal, why so much modern art feels increasingly disposable, and Alan shares his thoughts on the state of the scene as only he can.

On the Weekly News Rant, I check out the latest singles by Hulder, From The Vastland • Band, Terrestrial Hospice, Mordant Rhed, Left to Die and others, debate which modern black metal bands have what it takes to replace the likes of Mayhem, Emperor and Satyricon as genuine festival headliners, countdown my favourite Motörhead songs and, of course, dunk another deserving recipient on my Swirly of the Week.

Plus: Epikoros deliver a fire-and-brimstone debut with “Black Sun Eclipse” and take a thoroughly deserved bow in the Unsanctioned Filth spotlight.

Out now on all digital platforms (link in bio).

Former MORBID ANGEL drummer and vocalist MIKE BROWNING died 7/12/2026 at 62. No cause of MIKE BROWNING'S death has been given.

MIKE BROWNING also performed with extreme metal bands INCUBUS and NOCTURNUS AD

FROM PROFOUND LORE RECORDS:

RIP death metal legend/sci-fi death metal godfather Mike Browning of Nocturnus/Nocturnus AD. Journey beyond the gateway to the outer void!

"Before Christ - I ruled the land

After Death - I will rule once again"

FROM MALEVOLENT CREATION:

I just heard the bad news about Mike Browning passing yesterday. I am in disbelief right now. Mike was one of the first musicians i met in 1988 at a Nasty Savage /Death show in Miami. We exchanged phone numbers and he introduced us to all the great bands and musician's in Florida and for that i will forever be grateful. Mike was the nicest person you could ever meet and i just can't believe this. R.I.P. Mike Browning. You will be missed by many

FROM AGALLOCH:

We’re saddened to hear of the passing of the legendary Mike Browning. All of us are longtime fans of Nocturnus and of course the band he helped shape into existence, Morbid Angel. We met Mike when we played Maryland Deathfest in 2014. He was incredibly gracious and genuine. We invited him to our upcoming show in Tampa. He mentioned he was going to have just returned from a European tour the day before, so wasn’t sure he would make it. Nonetheless, he did. It meant the world to us.

All of us are old enough to remember what it felt like to hear “The Key” for the first time in 1990/91. It was perhaps the earliest death metal album to reveal what else death metal could be—it expanded the genre from the start. Browning was an architect and visionary of the genre. He was sorely needed then, and he’ll be sorely missed now.

Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-R.I.P.
