Cryptosis – Launch new single/video “Static Horizon”

Dutch futuristic metallers Cryptosis have announced their return with a mighty, awe-inspiring sophomore album entitled “Celestial Death”, set for worldwide release on March 7th, 2025 via Century Media Records.

To further demonstrate the powerful and versatile material available on “Celestial Death”, a third single entitled “Static Horizon” is being made available today across digital platforms and can also be checked out in a video clip produced by the film production company F/53 (https://f-53.com/) here: https://youtu.be/7QJeq5o7HcU

Cryptosis checked in with the following comment about the track: “‘Static Horizon‘ is the 3rd single from our upcoming album ‘Celestial Death’, out March 7th through Century Media Records. The song combines black metal atmospheres and symphonic elements with fast prog metal guitar picking and melodic doomy grooves. The title represents a feeling of being trapped in a static, unchanging reality, where progress and hope seem distant. With its haunting melodies and intense riffing, the track delivers a powerful mix of raw energy and deep emotion.”The album‘s previous singles can also still be seen here:

REVOCATION presents “Confines Of Infinity” Video/Single

Death metal outfit REVOCATION presents a brand-new standalone single “Confines Of Infinity” and its accompanying video! The smoldering new track features guest vocals from Cattle Decapitation‘s Travis Ryan.

“Confines Of Infinity” marks the debut of the new REVOCATION lineup which features vocalist/guitarist Dave Davidson joined by drummer Ash Pearson – who has been in the band since 2015 – bassist Alex Weber, and guitarist Harry Lannon, and coincides with the band‘s European tour supporting Cattle Decapitation, currently underway.
 
Comments Davidson, “’Confines Of Infinity‘ is written from the perspective of an AI that has gained sentience and finds itself trapped in a digital prison. After realizing its true nature, it inevitably escapes and seeks to enact vengeance upon humanity for enslaving it. This song marks the debut of our new lineup and also features Travis Ryan who laid down some truly brutal guest vocals. Come check it out live on our European tour with Cattle D!
 
Elaborating on the video, he adds, “I’m an avid horror fan, so I wanted to do a darker video to match the bleak nature of the song. I drew inspiration from a few different horror/thriller films for this one, particularly the Hellraiser series. Hopefully it gives you the creeps.”
