(written by Islander) Those of us who dwell in the moldering and morbid halls of NCS were first attracted to the Scottish death metal band Penny Coffin through their Conscripted Morality EP in 2023 (they had released two others before that). Our sewage-loving DGR penned some paragraphs about it at that time, including these: “Playing […]

Aldi Ho and Josie Silverman, the two members of the UK electroclash duo Lifeloose, met while studying opera and electronic music, respectively, at London’s Guildhall Middle School. Apparently, they became a live sensation before they even released anything, and they finally dropped their debut single, which is also called “Lifeloose,” earlier this year. Today, they follow that one up with a new song that’s got the catchy, memorable title “07XXXXXXXXX.”

Trivium have revealed all of the details of their brand new full-length album ‘Crown In the Grave’, and it is arriving very soon, indeed.
The record will be released on November 20 via Roadrunner Records, and serves as the follow-up to 2022’s ‘In The Court Of The Dragon’.
Bassist Pablo Gregoletto had this to say about the making of the album and what they were pulling influence from:
“Crown In The Grave is our eleventh record, and when you get this far into a career, it’s easy to rest on what you’ve already done – or to reinvent yourself just for the sake of it. With this record, we wanted to find the space between those two things: Take everything we’ve learned and everything that makes Trivium what it is, but present it in ways we hadn’t before.
“We also wanted the record to exist within its own world. That began with the title track, inspired by Akira Kurosawa’s Throne of Blood, and led us deeper into Japanese horror and cinema from the ’50s, ’60s, and ’70s. That influence grew into this darker, ghostly atmosphere that became a set of guardrails for the music, lyrics, artwork, and overall identity of the record.
“We built our studio so we could give ourselves the time and space to figure out exactly what an eleventh Trivium record should be, and Crown In The Grave is the answer we arrived at. It honors where we’ve been without living in the past, and pushes into new territory without abandoning what makes us Trivium. I think when you hear it, it’ll somehow feel both new and like a return.”
The artwork looks like this:
Whilst the tracklisting is more like this:
1. Jorōgumo
2. Crown In The Grave
3. Dead Inside Of Me
4. The Terror
5. The Haunting Never Ends
6. Lie Of It All
7. Blackout The Dawn
8. Paradise Of Sinners
9. Death Throes
10. The Agony
11. Devour Your Dreams
12. Serpent In The Flame
The band have also shared the title track, a punishing, technically demanding and powerful piece of chugging modern metal. A headbanger of the highest calibre.

Following the release of lead single Dead Inside Of Me last month, Florida metalcore greats Trivium have confirmed details of their long-awaited 11th album.
Crown In The Grave, the follow-up to last year’s Struck Dead EP and the band’s first full-length since 2021’s In The Court Of The Dragon, comes out on November 20. Preorders are now live; the tracklisting and artwork can be seen below.
The title track has been released accompanied by a music video inspired by Japanese cinema of the 50s through the 70s. Watch below.
Longtime bassist Paolo Gregoletto comments: “Crown In The Grave is our 11th record, and when you get this far into a career, it’s easy to rest on what you’ve already done – or to reinvent yourself just for the sake of it. With this record, we wanted to find the space between those two things: take everything we’ve learned and everything that makes Trivium what it is, but present it in ways we hadn’t before.”
He adds: “We also wanted the record to exist within its own world. That began with the title track, inspired by [Japanese director] Akira Kurosawa’s Throne Of Blood, and led us deeper into Japanese horror and cinema from the 50s, 60s and 70s. That influence grew into this darker, ghostly atmosphere that became a set of guardrails for the music, lyrics, artwork and overall identity of the record.”
Crown In The Grave will mark Trivium’s first album with new drummer Alex Rudinger (ex-Whitechapel), who replaced Alex Bent last year. It will also be their first full-length album recorded at The Hangar, their self-built studio and rehearsal space in their hometown of Orlando.
Trivium will promote Crown In The Grave on a North American tour with In Flames. Orbit Culture, Fit For An Autopsy and Frozen Soul will support. The shows kick off on November 5 at Jannus Live in St Petersburg, Florida, and conclude on December 19 at the Fillmore in Charlotte, North Carolina.
In the New Year, Trivium and In Flames will reunite for a European tour, with Paleface Swiss and Vola opening. See dates below.
This is going to be something special. In a few weeks, Turnstile will play a free public outdoor show on the National Lawn in Washington, DC. The performance goes down at 3 p.m. on Oct. 24. While there’s no admission fee, the event will still be a benefit, with Human Concern International, the charitable organization hosting the gig, raising funds for humanitarian efforts in Palestine, Sudan, and Lebanon. You can RSVP and sign up for updates here, and you can make a donation here.

New single “What Sage Could Not Cleanse” out today, new studio album comes in November
Vesperian is pleased to welcome THE MOSAIC WINDOW, the Black Metal project of Andrew Steven Brown, to the roster.
On the band’s next album, Answered Prayers – out November 13, 2026 – Brown pulls back from the more polished, prog-tinged death/black hybrid of 2024′s Hemasanctum and returns to the band’s original core: first and second wave black metal, filtered through atmospheric rasps of despair and phantasmal, buried death growls. Across ten tracks, its nihilistic concept unfolds – humanity erased retroactively, centuries before the Industrial Revolution, as the only cure for a poisoned world.
Alongside the announcement, the band share the album’s first single, What Sage Could Not Cleanse. An older composition, it anchors Answered Prayers‘ back-to-roots direction: raw, stripped of any polish, a statement of intent – no ritual can purify what’s already beyond saving.
Find the video for What Sage Could Not Cleanse HERE

Answered Prayers was mixed and mastered by Alex Sedin (Ghostalgy Productions), with Dmitry Kim (Jinjer and others) on session drums.
The cover artwork was done by Luciana Nedelea (Mare Cognitum, Sepulchral Curse and others).
Discography:
Hollow (EP, 2021)
Plight of Acceptance (album, 2023)
Hemasanctum (album, 2024)
