Picture Credit: 30 Kilo Fieber Records - except for MangoWave logo by Bloody Larry Summer in Central Europe is the season for festivals, open air shows, skinny-dipping, or getting burned by the sun. Thus, the period from late May to early September is that silly season when releases are rather rare. But whenever this summer hole ends, our record players, CD or tape decks, and sound speakers long for the arrival of brand new releases. For fans of Punk Rock and Hardcore, the season has begun with a big bang since Bavarian label 30 Kilo Fieber Records has provided us with two burning hot new records in early September: „Ultramarin“ by Austrian Punk rockers Anna Absolut and the selftitled EP by Germa

Click here to visit the new homepage. Picture Credit: Ultramonk Ultramonk 9 feat. King Krooked Kane - Ain't Easy Being MEan Release Date: September 02, 2022 Duration: 05:07 Genre: Hip Hop / Gangsta Rap With a new track to make Flying Lotus jealous, Ultramonk 9 has released a new music video. As mentioned before it’s a combo of EDM production and some old-school rapping, with turntables entwined in the mix. The main part of the track is a mean (intended) slow beat with low-pitched vocals; the flow is chill, and the game is strong. The second best thing about this is the video itself.

The last full-length from the Swedish colossus Havok was released nine years ago - and as massive as Statues of Sisyphus was, the new album manages to develop the band's progressive vector even further. Rorschach distants itself a bit more from the signature Gothenburg sound and dives deeper into the experimental landscape. The album begins with a clear Grammy nominee pop metal sound, however, it is quickly replaced with downtuned chugging riffs, weird time signatures, and intense blasting worthy of early Dark Tranquility.
