SKELETAL SPECTRE Streams Black Augury Hollow

Female fronted, ghastly Doom/Death Metal hybrid band  SKELETAL SPECTRE has posted a brand new song from the upcoming 3rd album, "Voodoo Dawn". The song is called "Black Augury Hollow" and can be heard via Pulverised Records official soundcloud player.

Spearheaded by the unholy Death / Doom Metal queen Vanessa Nocera, "Voodoo Dawn" proudly displays a plethora of sagacious riffs that crush like a two-ton hammer and yet sickens enough to contaminate a diseased swamp. Sludge parts crawl in and out on occasions in an malefic alliance with some ugly D-Beat indulgence!

With the entire full-length effort written and recorded at Morbid Apparition Studios while mixing and mastering duties were reined under the watchful eye of Patrick Bruss (Ribspreader, Acid Witch, Cianide, Impetigo, etc), and with the artistic scarring by Adam Geyer (Bone Gnawer, Fondlecorpse, Wooden Stake, etc); "Voodoo Dawn" is a tormenting solace of the most hideous hex-ridden Death Metal to ever cross one's path.

Bludgeoning and inexorable through and through, grime-sovereigns SKELETAL SPECTRE once again incites the underworld with their deadly third conjuration "Voodoo Dawn"!

SKELETAL SPECTRE are influenced by spirits of the undead and graveyard sacrifices at midnight! "Voodoo Dawn" will be out this year on Pulverised Records!

Teramobil (feat. members of Augury, Beyond Creation, The Plasmarifle) New EP and Video Teaser Online Now - Instrumental Technical Metal


It is no secret that Montreal is a hotbed of metal innovation, encompassing a wide spectrum of brutality, technical innovation and avant-garde ideas that many scenes do well to envy. Still, genre conventions being what they are, many musicians are left with that nagging question in the back of their minds... “what if we just went all out, no boundaries?” Enter: Teramobil.

Comprised of Dominic 'Forest' Lapointe (Augury, Beyond Creation, etc) on 6-string bass, Mathieu Bérubé (Unhuman) on guitar and Alexandre Dupras (Unhuman, The Plasmarifle) on drums, Teramobil is an uncompromising amalgam of technical metal, progressive rock, jazz fusion, psychedelic trips and... pretty much anything else you can think of!

Jokingly dubbing their instrumental style “InYourFaceExtremeDoomCountryMathTechniCore”, Teramobil have, since beginning writing in the fall of 2010, come up with a full serving of challenging music that above all remains clear, concise and listenable despite its extreme level of complexity. The band's first offering, in the form of the 6-song EP Multispectral Supercontinuum, saw the light of day in March 2013. It will be followed by a full-length album in the near future.

Teramobil have managed to generate an immediate buzz about their live show by earning opening slots for such acts as Beneath The Massacre and Behold The Arctopus, all the while showing they can go toe-to-toe with these established acts without breaking a sweat.

Fans of the aforementioned Behold The Arctopus, as well as Animals As Leaders, Blotted Science, Converge and more: you have been notified, a new wave of exploration is here, and it's called Teramobil.

Teramobil is:
Mathieu Bérubé - Guitars (Unhuman)
Dominic “Forest” Lapointe - Bass (Augury, Beyond Creation)
Alexandre Dupras - Drums (Unhuman, The Plasmari e)

Sonic Unyon Metal To Reissue Debut AUGURY Album This March

Canadian-based Sonic Unyon Metal are proud to announce that they'll officially reissue Concealed, the classic first album from progressive death metal outfit AUGURY, this March. Originally released in 2004 via Galy Records, this updated version features a fully remastered recording of the album, also expanded to include two bonus tracks from the band's 2006 demo. This definitive edition will also be packaged in a new digipak format, designed by Sven De Calluwe of Aborted.

 [Augury 2004 lineup]

Formed in Montreal, Quebec at the end of 2001, AUGURY immediately made an impact in the Canadian death metal scene with their technical/classically-inspired progressive death metal attack. The unit entered the studio with Yannick St-Amand (Martyr, Unexpect) in 2004 to record their Concealed debut. The record was mixed by Jean-Francois Dagenais (Kataklysm, Misery Index) and then set loose upon the anxious public. After the release of Concealed, AUGURY signed with Nuclear Blast Records, who in 2009 unveiled the band's critically acclaimed 2009 albumFragmentary Evidence, further cementing the band's name into the upper ranks of the progressive death scene.
Sonic Unyon Metal will re-unleash Concealed to North American audiences on March 8th, 2011. Check out the updated artwork and more at this location.

Concealed reissue track listing:

1. Beatus
2. ...Ever Know Peace Again
3. Cosmic Migration
4. Nocebo
5. Alien Shores
6. In Russian Dolls Universes
7. Becoming God
8. The Lair Of Purity
9. From Eden Estranged
10. ...As Sea Devours Land
11. Skyless (Bonus Track - 2006 demo)
12. Faith Puppeteers (Bonus Track - 2006 demo)

SOILWORK TEAMS UP WITH...

...DEATH ANGEL, AUGURY AND SWASHBUCKLE FOR NORTH AMERICAN TOUR!
The Godfathers of Swedish modern metal SOILWORK are pleased to announce that they will embark on a North American headlining tour this Summer with San Francisco Bay Area thrash legends DEATH ANGEL! Joining them will be Quebec’s tech-death mastersAUGURY, Roadrunner Records recording artists MUTINY WITHIN, and pirate themed thrashers SWASHBUCKLE.
SOILWORK vocalist Bjorn “Speed” Strid commented: "We are stoked to tour with the most vicious thrashers from the west, famous for their gin drinking and intense live shows. DEATH ANGELis a classic band that we've wanted to tour with for a long time. A perfect fit for the bill and surely an awesome touring companion. The summer of mosh is upon us. Don't miss out!"


DEATH ANGEL frontman Mark Osegueda added: “I can't begin to tell you how excited we are about the upcoming tour! I first heard SOILWORK on a Nuclear Blast promo compilation and they stood out from the first listen. The riffs, the drumming, and Bjorn's vocal attack! Then we were fortunate enough to play with them at With Full Force Festival a few years back and they killed it live!
As fate would have it, I was asked to participate in a Nuclear Blast 20 Year Anniversary compilation album called Out of the Dark, which Peter Wichers wrote the music for. I wrote the lyrics and melody for a song on that compilation called ‘My Name is Fate’! Peter actually was also the producer, so I was fortunate enough to get to work with him in the studio! What a brilliant guy and and a great musician and now that he is back in the fold SOILWORK is back on top of their game. I think the musical styles and live performances of both bands will make every show on this tour a show not to be missed by any true fan of HEAVY music! So don't just hear about the aftermath, experience it for yourself!”


AUGURY lead singer/guitar player Patrick Loisel: “We are very proud to be part of such a great tour with SOILWORK, perform alongside legends such as DEATH ANGEL (a band whom I covered in my old bands), and join our brothers in Swashbuckle again. It's quite a thrill!”



SOILWORK and DEATH ANGEL have now added a special eventVIP ticket for a pre-show meet-and-greet to take place one hour before doors. Each night, fans will get to meet and greetSOILWORK and DEATH ANGEL for a special event that is being offered. Fans will also receive a customized poster to get signed by both bands. These special VIP tickets are on sale now viaEnterTheVault here.

AUGURY - LAUNCH MAIDEN TOUR OF NORTH AMERICA

Canada's AUGURY have been more than ready to embark on their first tour of North America with Dutch death metallers God Dethroned, New York’s Abigail Williams, and Ohio’s Woe Of Tyrants in support of their Nuclear Blast debut, Fragmentary Evidence.



Members of Montreal’s AUGURY recently stated:

“It'll be exciting to spread our music to a larger audience in America,” states guitarist Mathieu Marcotte. “Even though we have never played there yet, we have a lot of fans who are waiting to see us live. The challenge is the same wherever you're playing: to put out your best every night while having fun.”

Drummer Antoine Baril adds: “There are so many great cities that I’ve always been dreaming to visit and it’s even better to know that we will play a show in each one of them. My biggest challenge is to get better and better as a musician at each show and spread energy to the crowd to share the endless passion I have for this music we play.”



“What we expect is a spiral of colliding human bodies, rotating as a single mass, yielding all that energy,” predicts vocalist & guitaristPatrick Loisel. “In the end, it'll be like Godzilla trampled your town!”

In addition to pledging multiple updates during the tour and answering all fan e-mails, AUGURY’s self-described “archive freak” (Baril) will be uploading video footage from the tour onto the band’sMySpace site
