French multifaceted, post-black metal band DECLINE OF THE I will release their third studio album titled Escape on the 27th of July via Agonia Records. In anticipation, the band has revealed a new music video for the edit version of the track 'Je Pense Donc Je Fuis'.

The band commented: "After a heavy and neurasthenic first chapter, and an epileptic, dirty and violent second one, here's the last part of the Decline of the I’s trilogy: Escape. It’s now time to leave, to avoid this perpetual aggression of the outside world. All the other reactions leaded to a dead end. Running away is the only possible move for the subject to preserve its entity. There are many forms of escape: madness, suicide, technology, spirituality. This third album explores all of them. Musically, it’s the synthesis of all the previews works; it's contemplative and slow but also very fast, dark and brutal".

Dutch thrash/death metal veterans LEGION OF THE DAMNED have launched the first video 'Slaves Of The Southern Cross,' taken from their upcoming album Slaves Of The Shadow Realms. The new offering is slated for release on January 4th, 2019 via Napalm Records.

Vocalist Maurice Swinkels comments: "Next to 'Dark Coronation', 'Palace of Sin' and 'Warhounds of Hades', this is one of my favorite tracks on the album: 'Slaves of the Southern Cross', its heavy as hell and sometimes reminds me of Infernal Majesty, it has a great atmosphere and I cannot wait for the fans to sheer with me 'Slaves of the Southern Cross'. For the video we rented the big hall of the Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen and kept it relative 'simple', spend the entire day in fire blasters and filmed the band that captures the essence of LEGION OF THE DAMNED: Aggressive and heavy!"
