During the following weeks, SnakeyeS will reveal more information about the new record, including its name, track list, cover art, first tour dates, as well as new videos recorded during the studios sessions.

Inertia
Alternative rock band Inertia are showing off their native California roots in their new LP, The Process, out now. In 12 songs, the band explores a wide range of lyrical content, including narratives about growing up and standing tall in front of your own personal demons. Adapting an alt rock sound, the band also includes strong influences from bands such as Bring Me The Horizon, while also maintaining emotive clean vocals throughout the record. There are small senses of metal influences included as well, but Inertia keeps those to a minimum while still demonstrating a fierce and powerful, unique sound. About the album, the band states:
The entire album is a concept piece on growing up and becoming an adult. We spread a message of positivity through active rock music.
Zeit
’s Zeit have released their debut full-length Konvergenz.
Recorded and mixed in Leipzig, and mastered at Original Mastering, in Hamburg, Konvergenz continues the band’s journey into the spheres of sludge and doom metal that always find their path back to the realms of black metal.
The album is available on CD and cassette, and as a digital .
