• New York's ARC Releases New Video For “Ghost Lights” Ahead Of April Tour Dates With Visions Of Atlantis + "Awaken The Machine" EP Out Now!

  Mar 25, 2025 Fistoffreedom 0 Comments

   

  Genre-defying metal NYC outfit ARC will be joining symphonic metal maestros Visions of Atlantis for two exclusive shows this April, bringing their extraordinary multimedia spectacle to lucky fans in Mechanicsburg, PA, and Brooklyn, NY. Ahead of this, they are releasing the video for their single “Ghost Lights,” which comes off the 2023 EP “Awaken The Machine”.

  Founded on visionary Sonny Angell's ambition to create a performance-based band with boundary-pushing music, ARC has rapidly established itself as one of the most innovative acts in modern metal. The band's philosophy ‘ARC EVOLVES' drives their constant reinvention and elevation of both their sound and stage presence. They comment on what is in store:

  “We constantly try to raise the bar, enhance our stage show, expand our thematic elements, and experiment with different musical styles. ARC is ambiguously mysterious, ARC is energy and machines. Human interpretations are on stage playing the music, however, ARC is all around us. Information being transmitted from... Somewhere in parts of your brain, you didn’t know you had.”

  The band performs with meticulously planned choreography, custom costumes, specialized stage lighting, props, and synchronized on-screen visuals—all managed by a dedicated stage manager who travels with the band exclusively to orchestrate their technical production.

  ARC's music seamlessly fuses the brutality and melody of extreme metal with retro-futuristic synth-wave electronica, creating an all-out assault on the senses. Their frenetic live shows combine lasers, smoke, blood, sweat, and the band's relentless energy in a performance experience that must be witnessed to be believed. They are recommended for fans of Rammstein, Dark Tranquility, and Dance with the Dead.

  Watch and listen to the video from "Ghost Lights" below.

  Their latest EP, "Awaken The Machine", is available on Arc-evolves.bandcamp.com and Spotify.

• THIRTEEN GOATS Announces Vancouver Island Tour Dates w/ OPAL IN SKY, NAMELESS KING + New Album “Capricorn Rising” Out Now!

  NEWS RELEASE

  THIRTEEN GOATS Announces Vancouver Island Tour Dates w/ OPAL IN SKY, NAMELESS KING

  New Album “Capricorn Rising” Out Now! via Exitus Strategem Records

  "It's really strong. GREAT musicians, great production, as well as a very progressive aspect without losing the darkness." - Kelly Schaefer, Atheist

  Vancouver, Canada’s Thirteen Goats will be storming Vancouver Island, BC in March 2025 for the "Tour of The Black Flame" supporting OPAL IN SKY alongside NAMELESS KING (dates listed below). Thirteen Goats is performing in support of their second album—the extreme metal rock opera “Capricorn Rising” unleashed on Exitus Stratagem Records this past July.

  Tour of The Black Flame w/ Opal In Sky, Nameless King, Thirteen Goats​
  Tickets available at - https://orangetickets.ca/
  March 20 - Nanaimo, BC - The Globe
  March 21 - Victoria, BC - Phoenix Bar
  March 22 - Port Alberni, BC - Rainbow Room
  March 23 - Cumberland, BC - Masonic Hall

  Thirteen Goats's "Capricorn Rising," tells the story of their mascot, Shepherd: a goat-skull-wearing Antichrist who raises an army of animals to liberate the earth from humanity’s constant wars and greed. This high-concept narrative is delivered with Thirteen Goats' signature blend of infernal riffs, huge hooks, and uniquely theatrical songwriting.

  Each song on the album is part of a broader narrative that explores themes of disillusionment, radicalization, and rebellion as Shepherd and his 12 demon goats wage their crusade. Thirteen Goats delivers a unique blend of death and thrash metal, combined with a storytelling approach that takes listeners on a journey through the darkest aspects of both human and animal nature.

  Listeners can expect furious riffage, ambitious song structures, and even occasional female guest vocals (courtesy of guest artist Carly Ellen Jones). What they shouldn’t expect is a record that plays it safe or falls neatly into one specific subgenre. Thirteen Goats is recommended for fans of Lamb of God, Carcass, and Mastodon.

  Released on July 12, 2024, “Capricorn Rising” is available from Exitus Stratagem Records at https://www.exsrmusic.com/store/p/pre-sale-thirteen-goats-capricorn-rising

That journey is scored with metal! We think this album will be something unique, a whirlwind of emotions and an auditory odyssey. We capsulated real events in our lives and laced them through our complex musical universe. We want the fans to feel the music, and ride along with us on this musical journey through our dystopian planet." adds the band.
