[Heavy News] Five Diverse Singles: BEAST IN BLACK, AGE OF RUIN, BRIAN CAMPEAU, LENAX and SLUNG!
After a bit brief lull in the Heavy News cycle, we’re back - this time, with something a little different. It is hump-day for a lot of you out there. I’d like to ease that whatever-2025-is overarching sensation of dystopia with a nice spread of music singles to nibble on. Check out the picnic basket (actually a link) for: Gaming-OSTs-Go-Metal (Beast in Black/Activision Blizzard), Modern Metal/Hardcore (Age of Ruin), Artsy psych-pop from the UK (Slung), progressive Australiana singer-songwriter Brian Campeau and finally, US black metal outfit Lenax. Bon appetit! Don’t overdo it - plenty more coming soon!

[Podcast] EP. 42: Interview with NAMELESS, a.k.a. DENNIS MIKULA of GHOST BATH.
Atmospheric black metal (aka blackgaze, post-black metal) has experienced rapid growth - to the point of oversaturation. One artist who retains a strongly unique musical aesthetic is, of course Nameless (aka Dennis Mikula) of US black metal unit Ghost Bath. See link for Youtube video interview, audio-only version, recent singles, artist/album preorder links, an extensive artist release statement and more!
