Denver death metal newbies Bloodstrike are set to drop their debut full-length, In Death We Rot on Redefining Darkness on September 25, and they’re coming out of the gate hard with the “Abomination” video.

The Wisconsin death metallers make their Flexi Series debut with “Speed Freak,” a cover of the 1988 Hallows Eve classic.

The man behind the art: Shane Mehling has a chat with Bruno Guerreiro, Decibel Art Director and metal illustrator responsible for album covers, gig posters, and shirt designs.  

Just in time for fall:  doom over the world… now available in ones and zeros. 

Hard luck Bay Area tech-thrash veterans Insanity are finally back with their first full-length since 1994’s Death After Death.
