News & New Videos Roundup: Immortal Bird, Refused, Denver Black Sky, Pentagram, Fuck The Facts and many more!
This is a Fish God takeover. I might not have the glorious fur my homie Bear God ostentates, but I can still keep you informed.
I think.
Retox premiered a video for “This Should Hurt A Little Bit”, a track from their solid 2015 release Beneath California. Peep the visuals below, and definitely don’t skip on their latest album. It’s a jam.

Earlier this week we brought you a preview of Fuck The Facts upcoming release by way of track “Solitude”. Now there’s a video for the song, which you can watch below. Desire Will Rot is one of my most anticipated releases, scheduled for an August 25th drop on Noise Salvation.

Refused just dropped a live video from a performance at Vacation Vynil in Los Angeles, California. As Amberthony Alertano would ask, what do you think of Refused’s last abum Freedom? Do you love it, do you hate it? Regardless, they bring a lot of energy to the table live, something you can (sort of) experience by watching the footage of “War On The Palaces” below:

Pentagram released a new, fairly upbeat song. “Walk Alone” will appear on their upcoming album Curious Volume, set for an August 28th release via Peaceville Records. This is decent, but it doesn’t make my blood run faster like other Pentagram songs do.
