ODC releases ambitious music video for new single “Wanted”


Bridging the gap between heavy metal and classic rock models, ODC's French blend various influences, creating an infectious style of modern metal. After a first EP in 2019 and a string of singles, ODC reaches the next level after signing with BloodBlast, a digital rock and metal distributor developed by BELIEVE MUSIC and NUCLEAR BLAST. "We can't wait to tell you more about our upcoming releases!" says Celia Do.

To debut the partnership with BloodBlast, ODC releases the single “Wanted”, backed by a mega production and an ambitious music video, including a live debut and chat with the band that took place on the YouTube channel and can be seen HERE.

“Wanted” brings a great story sung in three languages: English, Spanish and French, backed by modern metal, where the guitar lines are driven by 8 strings, in a powerful rhythm, and electronic sounds around the beautiful voice of Celia Do .

“The song talks about how women can be imprisoned by society in predetermined roles and how they can break free from these stereotypes to express their strong and fierce side. Modern Metal opens a new era and encourages women to dare to assert themselves as they wish”, explains founder Celia Do.
ODC - WANTED (Official Music Video)
The band recently released the single "I Love The Way You Fall", available on all digital platforms, along with the music video on Youtube, which has already accumulated more than 110 thousand views, and IGTV. "The video was filmed in the streets of Paris during the lockdown. I called it the 'official Lockdown music video' because nothing can stop the music!", reports the vocalist. The song continues the ODC's powerful and emotional song streak, fueled with a modern sense, with its thunderous drum beats, magnificent guitars and, of course, Celia Do's electrifying vocals. Check out the songs on Spotify.

ODC is the alternative rock and metal project created and led by Celia Do. The band has refined a diverse rock sound that draws on influences from modern metal, nu-metal and alternative metal, a fusion of different influences. Modernizing rock and metal is the band's credo. The vocalist founded the band in 2017 in Paris, France. The first EP 'Ending The Boredom' was released in 2019, followed by a series of singles. The cover for Billie Eilish's famous hit "You Should See Me in a Crown" totaled over 600,000 streams on Spotify and YouTube and was placed on over 3,000 playlists.
 
Spotify's editorial teams have placed ODC on several of their top international playlists, including "Heavy Queens", "New Core", "New Metal Tracks", "New Blood", etc. The band is also on the official playlist of Nuclear Blast.

WINGLESS: Polish Death Metal Act Issues “Constellations” As Nonconform Album Nears Release Through Selfmadegod Records Next Week


Stream WINGLESS’ "Constellations " HERE.
 
As Selfmadegod Records prepares for next week’s release Nonconform, the devastating fourth album from Krakow, Poland-based death metal outfit WINGLESS, the new single “Constellations” has been issued.
 
Nonconform was produced by Grzegorz Luzar and Dominik Burzym, mixed and mastered by Dominik Burzym, all at Studio67. The record was completed with cover artwork by Rafal Wechterowicz (Slayer, Mastodon, Nile), and logo, band photos, portraits, and packaging layout by WINGLESS vocalist Michal Loranc, also a well-known designer who has worked with Behemoth, Nile, Necrophagist, and many others.
 
With nine new tracks that merge passages of dread and doom into classic, old-school death metal devastation, Nonconform delivers over forty-two minutes of prime devastation fans of Morbid Angel, Death, Immolation, and old Paradise Lost should not miss.
 
WINGLESS’ Grzegorz Luzar writes, "'Constellations' is a very solid and energetic track. It's quite memorable and rhythmic as well when we talk about chorus. The last part is one of my favorite; this hypnotizing melody is one of the trademarks of this song.”
 
Stream WINGLESS’ "Constellations" now at THIS LOCATION.
 
Nonconform will see release on CD and digital formats through Selfmadegod Records next Friday, October 1st. Find preorders including merch bundles HERE and Bandcamp HERE.
 
WINGLESS was formed at the beginning of 2012, by well-experienced musicians who have performed or are still performing with some other groups being part of the local metal scene. From the very beginning, the band has been fronted by its guitarist and leader Grzegorz Luzar. A recent shift saw longstanding vocalist Olaf Różański replaced by Michał “Xaay” Loranc of Redemptor. The lineup also includes drummer Piotr Wójcik, who has played with WINGLESS since 2018.
 
At an early stage of development, the music of WINGLESS oscillated more around the cutting edge of modern metal, but with the passage of time, their compositional style gradually began tending towards being strictly influenced by death/doom metal. The latter genres can be particularly heard on their latest album, Nonconform. It is a blend of dark and heavy sounds with a depressive aura, that ideally seems to represent the band’s present-day approach. WINGLESS is an ensemble perfectly aware of what and how they want to play, by consistently following their idea of creating death/doom metal music, without even avoiding inspirations from metal artists of the ‘80s and ‘90s.

TERDOR – DE GODDELOZE TOLGAARDER ( Review by Varg The Mighty )


 

Today’s review is of Netherlandish Black Metal band Terdor’s upcoming new album, out on October 1st.

Solely consisting of 2 songs, the release often treads through Progressive and Avant-Garde Black Metal territories, although the essence of the music is very far from it. While some passages adopt a startling and Voivod-esque approach, most of the release leans more towards Raw Black Metal.

With many riffs bringing Burzum to mind between different complexities, the album hops from modern to classic soundscapes, never letting go of a desolate kind of darkness that perpetually looms upon the composition. The production will surely appeal to classic Norwegian Black Metal fans, since the full-length has a raw sonority while not provoking the music’s unintelligibility. The bass guitar’s synchrony with the guitar melodies and greater than usual role is also notable.

I recommend this album to fans of Black Metal, especially but not only Raw and Avant-Garde Black Metal. My rating is of 9/10.
