DESOLATE TOMB RELEASE NEW SINGLE "PIERCED ON THE HILL OF GOGOTHA"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

Since 2018 Dakota Whiteside has been unleashing some of the heaviest brutal death metal/deathcore imaginable under the name Desolate Tomb. With an array of singles and two full length albums now recorded the reputation of this project for truly intimidating musical power is firmly established. 2024s Scorned By Misery album was a landmark release in terms of sheer, unrelenting force, picking up plaudits from shell shocked critics around the globe – with Musipedia Of Metal declaring it a “blasting and punishing run through of top-class brutality”. Now, for all those who have been waiting patiently from the next high impact attack from Desolate Tomb, their time has come, as earthshaking new single, ‘Pierced On The Hill Of Golgotha’ is about to detonate!

Unbelievably, ‘Pierced On The Hill Of Golgotha’ sees Desolate Tomb hitting new heights of intensity; even Scorned By Misery’s steel clad tracks will tremble in the face of this monster! From hammering blast beats to gargantuan chords that shift with the grinding power of mountains, surging tides of imperious might to jagged onslaughts, intricate riffs to a wild, deadly and dextrous solo – ‘Pierced On The Hill Of Golgotha’ has it all. With some inhuman guest vocals from long-term friend and collaborator Daniel Gates, this song is a tour de force of bone breaking brutality! Just one song…but what a song! This blasts apart everything else in Desolate Tomb’s already impressive and imposing discography.

Complete with some darkly effective and puissant artwork, created by Timon Kokott (Darkness, Furnace, Illdisposed etc) ‘Pierced On The Hill Of Golgotha’ will launch its assault on the senses on April 18th, supported by the firepower of Rottweiler Records. Be ready for an adrenaline infused experience of staggering dominance and strength.

DESOLATE TOMB RELEASE "SCORNED BY MISERY"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

The wait is over! After five years Dakota Whiteside is back with a new album from his brutally bludgeoning sonic creation, Desolate Tomb. Ten new tracks of soul shaking intensity, ten new demonstrations of destruction, ripe with the potential for utter devastation, brought together to form one of the heaviest expositions of extremity ever unleashed! This is the ultimate distillation of Desolate Tomb’s cataclysmic, ruinous sound; this is Scorned By Misery…

Scorned By Misery, the second full length album to emerge under the Desolate Tomb banner, takes everything that was good about debut album Cast From God’s Sight and adds more unrelenting, ruthless attack, turns every dial to the max and injects a knowing twist, a flair born of absolute confidence and an industrial sized shot of that magic that only infuses a band’s song writing and performances when all the stars align. Dakota Whiteside took his time formulating this armour plated battalion of songs and his meticulous patience is justified in every perfectly pummelling second of tracks like first single, ‘Yearning Maw Of Persecution’, which features a larynx lacerating vocal performance from Squelching’s Jaden Pruitt. Indeed, Scorned By Misery is rife with vicious, visceral performances from an array of extreme vocal talent – including Jon Davenport of Cultist and Sam Dishington of Separatist – and for every acidic syllable roared forth there’s a rabid riff, a bone-breaking blast, an explosion of glorious chaos to match. Every element of Scorned By Misery is reaching new peaks of crushing heaviness, inspired inventiveness and sheer addictive brilliance for the Desolate Tomb war machine.

Recorded, produced, mixed and mastered by Dakota Whiteside at his home studio, every note, every beat of Scorned By Misery lands with portentous weight and bruising impact. With the might of Rottweiler Records behind them, when Desolate Tomb detonate this weaponised collection of brutal death metal force and ravenous deathcore ferocity on February 23rd, you better run for cover

OV SULFUR RELEASE NEW SINGLE AND VIDEO: "BEFOULER"

 

PRESS RELEASE:

On March 24th, blackened deathcore outfit Ov Sulfur will release their debut full-length, The Burden Ov Faith, via Century Media Records. For a preview of The Burden Ov Faith, the video for the new single, "Befouler" - directed/animated by Anastasia Solti with additional effects by Dylan Gould, and featuring Alex Terrible! - can be viewed at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IymKky93qr8

Vocalist Ricky Hoover comments: "Breaking away from our constant blasphemy, 'Befouler' focuses on real-life heretics who say one thing to your face but believe another. They use this false front as a pathetic defense to slowly plot your demise. This type of life became foreign to me in my years away from the music industry, but it seems the more you're in the public eye, the more you face dissenters and weaklings. I've made so many great friends through the industry, but this one is a middle finger to those who are too cowardly to even spit in your face because they only open their mouth while hiding theirs."

Guitarist/vocalist Chase Wilson adds: "This is easily our most energetic song. The technical riffing keeps you banging your head so hard you just might get lightheaded while singing along to the anthemic chorus - shout out to Ricky! By the time you get to the end, you've basically given yourself short-term memory loss and forgotten that Alex Terrible comes in to just bludgeon you to death on the final breakdown. For the video, we went with a tale of revenge that ties our early single and EP artworks to 'The Burden Ov Faith'. Rather than go with the typical animated video, we wanted it to be almost like a moving painting or storybook, complete with hyper-stylized art from the super talented Anastasia Solti. We had our friend Dylan Gould add some extra effects to really make it pulse with the music, and we're very excited to have a unique visual for one of our collective favorite songs from the album!"

Crafted by the band alongside producer Morgoth Beatz (Winds of Plague, Scarlxrd), then mixed/mastered by maestro Josh Schroeder (Lorna Shore, Tallah), The Burden Ov Faith sees the two split engineering of vocals and drums, respectively, with former Machine Head guitarist Logan Mader stepping in to capture the guitars and bass. The resulting album spans the stygian planets of deathcore, black metal, and metalcore, creating something as majestic as it is hook-laden. "It's the 'Oblivion' EP (2021) on steroids," says founding guitarist/vocalist Chase Wilson, joking, "I would almost call it 'Arena Black Metal' at points!"

The Burden Ov Faith kicks off with the slamming sulfuric firestorm of opener, "Stained In Rot," which teases Ricky Hoover's expanding vocal range via singing, in stark contrast to the gnarliest gutturals he's conjured from his forked tongue. "Befouler" follows with technical death metal riffing and climaxes into an unexpectedly catchy chorus, before crumbling into a brutal breakdown featuring vocalist Alex Terrible. That Hoover keeps up with the likes of that masked madman, plus guests Taylor Barber (Left To Suffer) and Kyle Medina (Bodysnatcher) is impressive though not entirely surprising. That he holds his own on an album featuring Howard Jones (Light The Torch, ex-Killswitch Engage), however, is. Throughout and on the epic closing title track, his injection of melody is beautified by Lindsay Schoolcraft, formerly of Cradle of Filth.

"I wanted to put something out there that was as blasphemous and heavy as it was thought-provoking; I just had no idea how many people felt the same way," comments Hoover. Since their formation in 2021, Ov Sulfur has burned as bright as a Norwegian church in the night, and with a reception warmer than hell and a set of principles to guide them along their left-hand path, The Burden Ov Faith promises to be only the beginning for the rising Las Vegas collective.
