    I saw Restless Spirit open for the Truckfighters in Cambridge last August.  I had never heard them before but they were so good live, I bought two of their albums the next day.  This is their newest.

    Restless Spirit are from New York.  They are:

    Paul Aloisio: Guitar, Vocals

    Marc Morello: Bass

    John Gusman: Drums



    And good news:  you can catch both of these bands together next month in Cambridge, at the Middle East.  Tickets are a most reasonable $27 here.  I have yet to see Gozu live, but can tell you Restless Spirit was born to play live; you won’t be disappointed.  
    Maybe I’ll see you there!

  • SEVEN METAL SINS – Unveils New Video “Eternal Downfall” From New Album Legacy Of Chaos ~ Out June 2026

    French heavy metal force Seven Metal Sins return with “Eternal Downfall”, the new single taken from the band’s forthcoming debut album Legacy Of Chaos, set for release in June 2026.

    Following the release of “Hypocrisy” and the recent unveiling of “Wolves Of The Last Dawn”, the new track further consolidates the band’s uncompromising approach to heavy and power metal, combining razor-sharp riffing, commanding vocals, and an atmosphere fueled by tension, urgency, and raw intensity.

    Formed in 2024 by former Manigance rhythm section Stéphane Lacoude and Patrick Soria, Seven Metal Sins was born from the desire to return to a more direct, personal, and aggressive vision of metal songwriting. The lineup was later completed by guitarist Antton Iriart, vocalist Claw-G. and guitarist Fred Auclerc, forging a sound rooted in classic heavy metal, power metal, and old-school speed metal traditions while embracing a sharper contemporary edge.

    Lyrically, “Eternal Downfall” perfectly reflects the dystopian and socially conscious vision at the core of Legacy Of Chaos. Inspired by environmental collapse, authoritarianism, greed, and humanity’s destructive trajectory, the band channels its frustration and rage into a heavy metal framework enriched by dark futuristic imagery and apocalyptic undertones.

    The band describes its sound as “powerful – strong – heavy – sharp – huge”, delivering “pure, hard-hitting metal in the vein of cult bands that have marked different eras”.

    Track Listing:​
    1. The Fall (Intro) – 0:57
    2. Scars of Injustice – 4:35
    3. No Sanctuary – 4:22
    4. Hypocrisy – 4:07
    5. Eternal Downfall – 4:57
    6. Feel the Steel – 4:20
    7. Wolves of the Last Dawn – 4:36
    8. Beyond the Breaking Point – 4:01
    9. Sun Eaters – 5:00
    10. Rise of the Phoenix – 3:55
    11. King of Sorrow – 6:25

    Produced by Seven Metal Sins, Legacy Of Chaos was mixed by Jérémie Garat at Reseda Prod and mastered by Simon Capony at Basalte Studio, while the album artwork and layout were created by Marco Orlando.
