Sziget Festival in Budapest, Hungary is just one of many European mainstream festivals hosting metal and rock acts this summer. Primavera Sound included.

The post More And More Multi-Genre Festivals Like Sziget In Hungary Are Welcoming Metalcore Acts Such As BRING ME THE HORIZON, ANNISOKAY, And AVRALIZE appeared first on Metal Injection.

Nice Weather treats the baritone guitar not as a tool, but as terrain on Second Hand. This 12-minute ambient odyssey unfolds like a slow exhale—gradual, immersive, and unhurried. Recorded live to tape, the improvisation drifts patiently, each tone blooming and dissolving like weather patterns across an open sky.

There’s a tactile warmth in the analog recording—soft saturation wrapping around sustained notes and subtle harmonic shifts. Rather than chasing melody, the piece lingers in texture and negative space, inviting deep listening. Tiny timbral shifts become the narrative. Second Hand isn’t structured in the traditional sense; it’s experienced—a meditative, slow-burning passage that turns restraint into quiet transcendence.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SARDONIC WITCHERY Returns With “Under The Sign Of The Trident”

Digital Release: March 2026 | Physical CD & Cassette: April–May 2026
Texas-based black metal warlords SARDONIC WITCHERY announce their latest sonic assault, Under The Sign Of The Trident , a fully re-recorded compilation that ignites the flame of raw, underground black thrash metal. This release is both a tribute to their decade-spanning catalog and a sharpened weapon for the future of the cult.
Forged in 2012 in Porto, Portugal, and relocated to Texas in 2013, SARDONIC WITCHERY has remained a one-man black metal entity led by King Demogorgon , the mastermind behind all vocals, drums, guitars, bass, and lyrical vision. Since 2025, G. Lucis Ruina has joined as a full member, adding razor-sharp production and heightened musical ferocity to the band’s ritualistic arsenal.
A Rebirth of Blackened Fury

Under The Sign Of The Trident collects re-recorded tracks from four seminal releases:
Kult Of The Underground Warrior (2014)
King Of The Midnight Legions (2017)
Moonlight Sacrifice Ritual (2020)
Barbaric Evil Power (2024)
Alongside the notorious Black Fucking Metal from the 7” EP The Maniac Of Steel (2016), these eight tracks have been reforged in 2026 with intensified occult power, vicious riffing, and ritualistic precision — the foundation for the upcoming live desecrations on the Under The Sign Of The Trident Tour 2026 .
Live Rituals Across Continents

The band continues its international conquest, with tour dates spanning:
United Kingdom
Mexico
12 U.S. states , including Maryland Death Fest
Joining Demogorgon and Ruina in live ceremonies are session members James Siegrist and Daniel Salamanca , bringing chaos and devotion to every stage.
Underground Integrity

SARDONIC WITCHERY remains committed to raw, aggressive riffing, Luciferian occultism, witchcraft, and anti-Christian blasphemy — all wrapped in the barbaric spirit of true black metal. Their sound rejects modern polish in favor of primitive intensity, delivering ritualistic fury that honors the early waves of black metal while stamping their own merciless legacy.

Incantation are using the remaining dates of their North American run for something beyond the music. The death metal lifers have launched a food drive initiative at each remaining stop of the “Praise The Beast North American Tour”, which also features Belphegor, Hate, and Narcotic Wasteland. Donations collected at the door each night will go to local food banks in the cities where the band performs.

The push came from a personal place. Frontman John McEntee has been open about the band running into hospitality problems on the road — going without meals for several nights when venue food access fell through. That experience, rather than turning inward, prompted him to think bigger: “As a musician, I have had times when things have been tight, including the last few years, so I know how difficult it is to sometimes choose between medical bills and paying for food or housing. I understand this is the life I chose and, in fact, I’m proud of it.”

“There are others less fortunate who don’t even have the chance to afford food or shelter. So, I decided to have a food drive at the remaining shows on this tour and donate to the local food banks in the venues’ communities.”

The ask is simple: bring non-perishable goods — cans, dry goods — to the show. McEntee was careful not to make anyone feel pressured about it: “I know times are rough, and if you can’t bring anything, I totally understand. But if you can give, let’s do our part to help out our local communities.”

He also put out a call for local help with logistics: “We need local people in the cities where we are playing to provide us with contacts for local food banks, or even better, people willing to help us drop off the collected food after the show.”

The situation that sparked the initiative came up earlier in the tour when the band found themselves without venue hospitality for multiple nights running.

McEntee addressed it directly: “I know what it’s like, and I don’t want anybody on the face of the Earth to go through this. We have had so many people reach out with help after I made my last post about our hospitality issues, and all of us in the band appreciate all the kind gestures. The more I thought about it, the more I realized there are people in much more dire situations. We will get through our own stuff, but we need to help others. We need to give back. If you are local to these cities and can help us transport the donations, please reach out!”
