This is the third album by Crown Magnetar, a US death metal/deathcore band. Crown Crown Magnetar’s brand of deathcore is on the more extreme side of the spectrum.

Finnish modern metal force Blind Channel unleash “Into The Void”, the final standalone single ahead of their highly anticipated new studio album Painstream, out October 30th via Century Media Records.

Featuring Aaron Pauley of Of Mice & Men, “Into The Void” sees Blind Channel turn their attention far beyond Earth while confronting a distinctly human question: what if we really are alone? Against a crushing, high-impact backdrop, Blind Channel transform that cosmic uncertainty into something painfully immediate: if nobody is coming to save us, the future of our only home is entirely in our own hands.

With Pauley’s commanding vocals adding further weight and contrast, “Into The Void” offers another formidable glimpse into Painstream.

Blind Channel comment: “‘Into The Void’ is our final standalone single from the upcoming Painstream album before the whole thing drops. The song was inspired by the Fermi Paradox and the Wow! signal. If Earth really is the only place in the universe where life exists, we’re not exactly doing a great job of sustaining it.

Aaron from Of Mice & Men jumped aboard for this one and made sure the moshpits will suck people in like black holes.” Aaron Pauley comments: “I’m honored to feature on this track – it’s an absolute banger! Had a lot of fun working on it & I’m excited for the world to hear it.”

After 1.5 years of deliberate silence, Blind Channel returned earlier this year to open a new chapter with the announcement of their sixth studio album, Painstream. Across its 12 tracks, the album navigates the pain of growth, sharp self-reflection and explosive energy, pushing the band’s sound into new territory while retaining the intensity that has defined them.

Painstream will be released on October 30th via Century Media Records and is available for pre-order now in the following formats:

• Ltd. CD Digipak
• Ltd. CD Digipak – The 500 Frames Edition (limited edition with 1 of 500 unique Polaroids, shot by the band)
• Standard CD Jewelcase (US & Japanese versions)
• black LP
• Ltd. transp. coke bottle green LP
• Ltd. black-white marbled LP (exclusively available at blindchannelofficial.com)
• Digital album

Blind Channel will bring Painstream to stages across Europe in early 2027 for an extensive headline tour. For a complete list of dates and to purchase your tickets check here.
