Canadian death metal outfit Harvested are known for their crushing riffs and old-school ferocity—but with their latest release, Dysthymia, they take a sharp left turn, diving headfirst into the psychological depths of mental illness.

With their latest release Controller, Crucial Velocity take aim at one of the most omnipresent forces in modern life—technology. Dark, cerebral, and groove-heavy, the record balances riff-driven ferocity with lyrical depth. We caught up with Nate Bauer—songwriter, guitarist, and bassist for the band—to dig into the inspiration behind Controller, how it came together with an all-star lineup, and why your phone might just be the enemy.
We caught up with Danny Perry, frontman of Miami-based metal band Ornimental, to talk about their new music, orchestral influences, breakout success, and their deep-rooted connection to their hometown. From collaborating with the Emmy-winning Miami-Dade Film Orchestra to surviving their metaphorical Red Road, Danny shares it all.
Founded in 2016 in Denpasar City, Bali, ANALTOPSY has spent nearly a decade cultivating a sound that fuses death metal ferocity with massive grooves and just enough technical precision to keep listeners guessing. What started as a raw, DIY project has now matured into a sonic juggernaut poised for international impact. Their latest release, “Intense Digestive Release”, marks a pivotal moment in their evolution—and it’s not for the faint of heart.

With their latest record A Door Left Open, Orthodox plunges listeners into a world of dread, chaos, and emotional dissonance. The Nashville-based band has always defied genre labels, but on this release, the fusion of nu-metal aggression and hardcore vulnerability feels particularly sharp and deliberate. We caught up with bassist Austin Evans to unpack the emotional weight behind the record, the calculated madness of their sound, and what happens when the band finally nails the energy of their live show—on record.
