(MUCK POOL NEWS) I HELVETE – NEW SINGLE & ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT (MELODIC BLACK/DEATH METAL)

Image
Finnish melodic black/death metal act i Helvete will self-release their third full-length album, Halla, digitally on 6 November 2026. Ahead of the street date, the band has launched the third and final single, "Päätösmatka," which integrates unconventional instruments like violin, piano, and vibraphone alongside a choir. The band comments: "Halla is a theme album about old times when surviving against nature was a daily life struggle. Halla is a Finnish word and lazily translated means "frost". It is a phenomenon, but in Finnish mythology it is also a fairytale character that destroys the fields with its coldness. All the single and album covers draw inspiration from the works of the Finnish painter Hugo Simberg (1873-1917), whose art also inspired us in our songwriting and composition process.” Tracklist: 1. Nälkätalvi 2. Halla 3. Ikuinen Yö 4. Kaukana Kaukaisuudessa 5. Hiljaisuuteen Line-up: Aleksi Mäkelä - Vocals, guitar, keyboards Manu ...

(MUCK POOL NEWS) BABY ON A RAMPAGE – NEW MUSIC VIDEO & EP ANNOUNCEMENT (PROGRESSIVE METAL)

Image
Bay Area progressive metal outfit Baby On A Rampage has released a music video for their new single "Failure of One's Name." The track is the second single from their upcoming EP Forgive My Figure , scheduled for release on 12 November 2026. The EP was co-produced by Scott Proctor. Ash Lee states: "This is easily our most musically and melodically developed release so far. We’ve moved beyond the more straightforward metal influences of our earlier material and embraced a sound that is both more dynamic and more melodic. The songs still hit with dark, aggressive, and heavy verses, but they open up into massive, vocal-driven choruses packed with layers, harmonies, and emotion. We’ve put a lot of attention into the details, creating what I like to call a lot of 'ear candy' throughout the record. While our last album explored a wide range of styles and directions, this EP feels more cohesive. Each song has its own identity, but they all belong to the same musica...

(MUCK POOL NEWS) EXTINCTION A.D. – "FEED MY FRANKENSTEIN" COOPER COVER RELEASE (CROSSOVER)

Image
Thrash/hardcore outfit EXTINCTION A.D. has released a digital single and accompanying lyric video featuring a cover of the classic Alice Cooper anthem, "Feed My Frankenstein." The standalone holiday release updates the iconic rock track with the band's signature modern aggression and high-octane energy “I’m sure every band has spent hours in the van BS-ing about, “wouldn’t it be cool if we covered THIS song?” Anytime we’ve done that, ‘ Feed My Frankenstein ’ would come up half as a gag. We all grew up with and love the movie Wayne’s World that this song appears in and the placement of it in that movie is rad. Once this ‘one single a month’ idea came up, we knew we wanted to do a cover for October in the spirit of Halloween and we humped at making this the choice after years of joking about it,” explains singer/guitarist Rick Jimenez .  “Adding a bit of our flavor to this song with the heaviness of the guitars and my spin vocally, while adding the keyboards in a faithf...
