Walpyrgus – a supergroup of US metal – will release its debut album “Walpyrgus Nights” on June 9th, 2017, via Cruz Del Sur.

When you hear those passages recalling the aforementioned Maiden, Lizzy, Priest, Fate, etc&#8

EXCALIBUR, your “Humo Negro” is not the substance, after which the common Weekend Warrior graces. Not really. There is the loincloth in the face of the cover, the band name and the promo text (key elements: founded 1984, second LP never published) just gladly made a tear test – and then that: instead of as a steel-cheeky mix of MANILLA ROAD, BROCAS HELM And ETERNAL CHAMPION to the sky, the Spanish EXCALIBUR hangs like a wooden-brittle mixture of MAIDEN cover, permanent-wave rock and city-festival stage to Proberaum floor.

The One Hundred have revealed that “Chaos + Bliss”, their debut studio album, will be released via Spinefarm Records on June 2nd, 2017.
The 12 tracks – including lead UK single / video “Dark Matters” and follow-up “Monster” (both premiered on the BBC Radio 1 Rock Show) – will be available on CD, DL & LP, with the latter featuring bonus song “Temples”.

Combining elements of rock, rap, grime, hip hop & r ‘n’ b, the London quartet are well versed in swerving simple categorization and steering a direction that’s very much their own; add in quality, hook-laden songwriting plus adventurous production, complete with plenty of low-end poke, and “Chaos + Bliss” stands as a musical statement to truly stir the senses.

Tracklist:
1. Dreamcatcher
2. Monster
3. Disengage
4. Dark Matters
5. Fake Eyes
6. Hand Of Science

First of all, “From Two Balconies” has a wonderful cover artwork that was designed by the renowned Derek Riggs (Iron Maiden, Stratovarius, Gamma Ray etc.). Secondly, the album has a modern orientation and blends alternative, modern prog rock, pop-rock, rock, atmospheric, ambient & electronic music together. Three out of the ten tracks are instrumental, and one of them is the actually annoying “Confirmation Bias” – a track that can cause you a headache from the very first sec. Thankfully, the album has some nice atmospheric tracks like “The Mystical Connected Us”, “Beats in the Brain” (a remar
