The Dali Thundering Concept
Mind-blowing. There's no other way to describe "The Sea Starts Here," the single from the French band The Dali Thundering Concept. Blending progressive metal and deathcore, the group creates a completely new sound using familiar elements.
The sonic experience is completed with an engaging and mysterious narrative in the impeccably directed music video: characters from the album All Mighty Men , to be released on November 12th, bring strangeness and terror with performative dance and a surprising ending.
Carry The Day
Carry The Day is an alternative rock band formed in Los Angeles, California, in 2018. With an EP and a series of singles released, the band's main influences are rock and punk bands from the 1990s and 2000s, while also incorporating heavy metal references.
In their latest single, “State of Emergency,” the band, comprised of Christopher Huynh (vocals and guitar), Brandon Saldana (drums), Luke Tazbier (bass), and Isaac Vizcarra (guitar), showcases a darker sound in a catchy track.

Madicine
From the very first chord, Madicine shows what they're made of in the frenetic "Death March". With the dirty, heavy sound of thrash metal and vocals in the style of Lemmy Kilmister , the band's first and only single released to date arrived in 2015, but gains new life with the return of the Welsh headbangers.
Formed in 2011, the band became known in their home country's scene, but went on hiatus shortly after the release of their single. Finally back, Madicide plans to bring all their live performance experience to the studio soon.
Flavio Brandão Stratosphere Project
With Helloween and Stratovarius Flavio Brandão 's project began in 2019. The musician, who is responsible for guitars, bass, drums, composition, and music production, invited vocalists from all over the world to participate in this power metal endeavor.
The high-quality result can be seen in “Last Survivor”, the second album by Stratosphere Project , featuring German vocalist Michael Rainer “Ludvik” Ludwig on the powerful title track.
