The Black Dahlia Murder’s sixth full-length album, Everblack, will be released worldwide in June 2013. The album art for Everblack was painted by renowned artist Nick Keller and recording was completed at Audiohammer Studios (lead guitars and vocals), Rustbelt Studios (drums), and Regal Fecal (guitar and bass). Mixing was handled by Jason Suecof and Ryan Williams, mastering was completed by Alan Douches at West Westside. Trevor Strnad’s horror-inspired lyrics persist on Everblack, beginning with In Hell is Where She Waits for Me, a reference to the murder from which the band took for their moniker.

Vocalist Trevor Strnad elaborates on the lyrical concepts: “The opening track is the first actual song we’ve done about the Black Dahlia. This one is for the fans… they’ve been asking for this to happen for a long time. The story takes place at the Elizabeth Short’s rain drenched funeral, where her killer in attendance… just one of the many macabre tales woven into the fabric of Everblack. Subterranean flesh-farming vampires, vine rape, Jeffery Dahmer, amputation… it’s all here! With this sixth slab of sickness I tried my best to honor the band’s legacy and write lyrics that will keep the legions of horror fiends perspiring with fear.”

The debut single, Into the Everblack, is streaming now on metalblade.com/bdm.

The Black Dahlia Murder-RITUAL – OUT NOW 06.21.11!
#3 Metal Chart and # 30 Rock Chart on Itunes Canada

The Detroit quintet has recently unleashed a 12 song masterpiece titled “Ritual” with authority which is a collection of 12 tracks that see the band staying true to their sound and style while progressing in both writing and musicianship. “Ritual” has led the band to earn #3 on Metal Chart and #30 on Itunes Canada.

Guitarist Ryan Knight has delivered truly searing leads that will without a doubt daze and lay waste the ears of both loyal Black Dahlia diehards and burgeoning fans alike.

Whitechapel – A New Era Of Corruption (06.08.2010)
http://www.whitechapelband.com

Whitechapel, an honorary group that needs no introduction to the stage has lifted spirits of Death Metal fans alike bringing them one truly brutal sounding album after another that the Knoxville natives are known for. As the death metal genre continues to explode, Whitechapel stand bloody head and bruised shoulders above the pack. With a ruthlessly brutal aural assault built upon merciless blastbeats and spine-destroying breakdowns, their three guitarists deliver immense riffs and monstrous leads while vocalist Phil Bozeman vomits out lyrics that avoid clichés and give fans something to think about as they scream them back. Basically stated, this is as shit-your-pants exhilarating as modern metal gets.

“We didn’t want to put out this is exile part two’ and this is definitely a progression from that record, but at the same time, we wanted tit to sound like Whitechapel”

Try and keep up with this incredibly brutal band across the Summer Slaughter tour this year where you can find them among other great label mates, The Black Dahlia Murder and Six Feet Under.

Six Feet Under – Wake The Night! –Live In Germany (02.01.2011)
http://www.metalblade.com/sixfeetunder

Tampa, FL’s SIX FEET UNDER (SFU), featuring legendary godfather of death metal vocals Chris Barnes, has been delivering unapologetic death metal since 1993. SFU continue to do what they do best; delivering bludgeoning slabs of metal that leave fans hungering for more. Legendary death metal vocalist Chris Barnes, along with guitarist Steve Swanson continue to follow the dark and demented path that merges what Outburn Magazine calls “tried and true death groove” with stomach-turning lyrics and themes.

Further commenting on the band’s new material Chris Barnes stated; “I couldn’t be happier about the new songs and line up! Rob and myself have been collaborating on new songs along with the bands new drummer, Kevin Talley for the past few months. We are all feeling really excited about the bands future, and the raw intensity of the songs that we have created together so far. We’ve all known each other for a while and we’re really looking forward to continue writing the new CD and future tours. We are committed to taking SIX FEET UNDER to the next level of brutality!!!”

The Black Dahlia Murder has invited MSN.com to take part in revealing their new album, Ritual, to the world.

The Black Dahlia Murder: "Ritual"

Premiere of first single “Moonlight Equilibrium” & pre-order packages now live

Detroit deathsters The Black Dahlia Murder (TBDM) are pleased to unleash details of the group’s 5th full-length album, Ritual (out June 21st 2011), a collection of 12 tracks that see the band staying true to their sound and style while progressing in both writing and musicianship. Guitarist Ryan Knight has delivered truly searing leads that will without a doubt daze and lay waste the ears of both loyal Black Dahlia diehards and burgeoning fans alike. Music for Ritual was recorded in early 2011 in Detroit, MI with Mark Lewis (Deicide, Unearth) and the band producing with vocals and mixing taking place at Orlando, Florida based studio, Audio Hammer with Jason Suecof (BDM, Beneath the Massacre, Job for a Cowboy, All That Remains). The first single off Ritual, Moonlight Equilibrium, is now live at the following location along with several pre-order options: MetalBlade.com/BDM

Guitarist and founding member Brian Eschbach comments on the first single Moonlight Equilibrium: “We’ve been working on this album for a good while and we are very excited to finally share a preview with our fans! Moonlight Equilibrium is full of maximum overdrive melody and crushing beats that’ll hopefully leave you maniacs thirsting for more. We’ll be jamming this and other tasty treats for the next several months on the road. See you soon!”

Vocalist Trevor Strnad comments on the extraordinary artwork; “The visual aspects of Ritual have been brilliantly brought to life by the amazingly talented Valnoir Mortsonge (Watain/Morbid Angel/Ulver) for Metastazis in Paris, France. Valnoir was the perfect man for the job; he exceeded our expectations on all fronts and delivered a beautiful package that enriches the macabre ceremonial vibe of our musical creations. The goal was to make the artwork look like a Necronomicon or an evil spell book. The imagery on the front depicts the dualistic nature of the satanic ritual… the two halves that make it possible. On the bottom, inverted, are the senders of the ritual here on earth, in prayer. On top is Satan and his council, receiving the communicative ritual.”

In terms of the direction of Ritual vocalist Trevor Strnad notes; “This is the first time we have fully realized a concept for an album. We wanted to choose something that would exemplify the very essence of the band… something that would be ‘more TBDM’ than anything we have released to this point. All of the lyrics to Ritual are bound by a common thread of black magick and the occult, the worship of darkness, and the preservation of inner strength and will.”

“When we play a show, it’s like a ritual… a group catharsis. We are unified with our fans through the platform of live performance. There is a real magic there. Like the album cover represents, there are two halves required; us and you. Yes, we are an evil band. Yes we sing about Satan. But really, how I see it, our evil is for your own good! The character Satan in our music represents the freedom to think for yourself… the strength to see through the facades of the norm that is presented to us at birth, and the courage to live your own way, free of the burden of guilt and shame. That’s how it’s always been for us and this record is no different.”

Strnad continues; “I think Ritual is us fully realizing our responsibility to our fans to be the best (and most horrific) The Black Dahlia Murder we can while we’re here. In a way, you could say we have come to terms, more now so than ever, with how religious the fans are about this band… hence the album’s name. This is absolutely our best record and the new benchmark that we are soon to be measured by… I have no problem saying that. There has been no prouder moment for me in this band than the Ritual we offer before you. We worked harder on this and for longer than we ever have on any release until this point. Our blood is in the ink of this album, our souls in every note. That being said, if you were to steal this record, it would literally break my fat fucking heart. I know that times are tough, hell, it’s legitimately getting harder and harder to physically get these albums into your hands. I fully realize that. Every metal band (and fan) has fallen victim to these hard times. We are here to help get the music to you, no matter where you are or how scarce extreme metal may be there. It’s time to stand up and circumvent the obstacles that threaten to befall metal… just because these assholes have made it harder to find doesn’t mean we should just pull the plug, puss out and stop supporting it. Just because we can’t walk down the street to SuperMegastore anymore and buy a Cannibal Corpse CD we’ve turned to stealing it all from the internet. Weak! One of the awesome powers of the internet is that it can allow these kick ass preorder packages to be available to the fans. That’s why we went to such extreme lengths to bring such a lush packaging to the masses… one last attempt at trying to lure you to go against the grain and actually invest your hard earned money in the CD. If you really want to have an impact on the fate of this band, that is the truest and clearest way that I can tell you how to do so. We need your support. It’s not for our pocketbooks, it’s so we can exist in this cut-throat music business. I’m not encouraging you to just buy this album, either. This is bigger than that. I am encouraging you to support all metal bands that you like and buy their albums… we need you now more than ever.”

Ritual will be hitting streets in North American on June 21 with the band headlining one of the summer’s heaviest tours, the Summer Slaughter Tour, with label-matesWhitechapel and Six Feet Under in addition to Darkest Hour, Dying Fetus, and more.

Loud Trax recently interviewed the 2 guitarists (Brian Eschbach & Ryan Knight) from The Black Dahlia Murder. Here are some excerpts from the interview.
Guitarist Brian Eschbach said he freaked out when he first saw their “Unhallowed” CD at mainstream stores like Best Buy. “I remember thinking ‘What the hell!’.  I took a picture of it, and bought a copy I was so proud!”

: on their short songs:  “We’re not trying to write the epic Opeth or Dream Theater stuff.  We’ll leave that to the titans!”  + “If we were a grind band, these would be some really long songs!”

: Black Dahlia Murder lunch box:  ”the lunch box is a kind of inspired “He-man” thing which we thought would be fun.”
