Press release by Nathan T Birk.

Article by Trevor Proctor.

Imminently, Hells Headbangers shall release Grandiose Malice's first (and final) album, 'The Eternal Infernal,' on CD and vinyl LP formats.
Grandiose Malice's 'The Eternal Infernal' is the final will and testament of Steve Childers, otherwise widely known in the metal underground as Tregenda, founding guitarist of the legendary Black Witchery. Worldwide Childers was revered as a master of stark simplicity, his riffs burrowing immediately into the brain with total violence and force, but underneath all that sturm und drang lay a master songwriter.
Sadly, Childers departed this mortal coil on February 2nd, 2016.

Slaughtbbath - Contempt, War and Damnation.

South America has a fierce reputation for bringing us some of the best underground music with Chile one country contributing significantly to this reputation. From Santiago, Chile, Slaughtbbath is a band that has certainly released some of the finest underground music of recent years. 2013's critically acclaimed 'Hail to Fire' full length brought worldwide critical accliam and praise. Since then the band has had a number of fantastic split releases which they shared with bands such as Hades Archer and Grave Desecrator. 

To mark their first North American tour Hells Headbangers is set to release 'Contempt, War and Damnation' - a CD compilation that featuring tracks from all five splits since 'Hail to Fire,' along with a new and exclusive track, 'Astral Rape,' - the compilation is available to stream below.

Caverna Abismal Records.

Review by Trevor Proctor.

I regularly bang on about Chile’s contribution to the underground and with bands such as Pentagram, Unaussprechlichen Kulten, Hades Archer, Slaughtbbath and Oraculum coming from Chile there’s no doubting the high standard of music originating in the country - a standard matched by very few other countries. One Chilean band we need to be aware of is Santiago’s Praise the Flame.
