Progressive-power-thrash metal underdogs SACRED OATH have released the video for the song “Blood Storm” to celebrate their best-of digital release, “Spells And Incantations”.

Paris band Eibon has released a new video clip for “Entering Darkness,” the title track off the band’s album released through Aesthetic Death Records. Eibon features former members of death metal act Drowning and pioneering french doomers from Garden of Silence and Astral Rising.

METALLICA performed its top-selling 1991 LP, “Metallica”, a.k.a. “the black album,” in its entirety at Stadio Friuli in Udine, Italy.
