The German band Seven Blood have had the sort of rise one can only describe as meteoric. Last year, our collaborator Nat interviewed them as they were just beginning to tour and were still exploring what playing live felt for them as a band. Their debut album was on the horizon, but not yet finished. Now it's here. Life Is Just A Phase came out on November 21st 2025, just a few weeks after we had this interview. Here we go through the stories of the singles, how the band have found their groove live and the people who come to see and sing along to their music.

The band is just off of tour in the UK and have already announced a few festival dates later this summer, hear all about it over on their website: https://www.sevenblood.com and their Instagram @wearesevenblood

"We were evolving as musicians and we started to be more and more thoughtful about our music. Our approach is that the music itself tells a story. Even without vocals, it is self-sufficient. There is a plot, a musical plot in every composition, so we just create the vibe, the atmosphere through music. And then Tatiana listens and writes the story."

Jinjer's latest studio album Duél takes inspiration from 19th century aristocratic France to deliver a punch to the gut and a call to introspection. Despite their signature approach to progressive deathcore, there is much about the album that invited self-reflection. Join Eugene Abdukhanov, bass player in Jinjer, and Ruxandra Mîndru of MJB as they delve into the themes and writing process of Duél, as well as the packed world tour both behind and ahead of the Ukrainian band.

"It was about being too brutal with the problems that we have. We know we have problems, but do we really have to come at it so hard? And does it have to be all or nothing? Because a lot of people end up quite scared by that."

Taking listeners on a cosmic journey, jam masters Pearl Handled Revolver headlined The Camden Club on the last day of summer.

Born of Osiris drummer Cameron shares highlights from their recent two-month run across Europe and Canada, from unforgettable first shows in Serbia, Halifax, and Victoria to sold-out nights across the country. He talks about the meaning behind the band’s name, the inspiration and message of resilience behind their latest album Through Shadows, and how the band’s sound has evolved from basement demos to collaborative songwriting. With a US headline tour ahead, a European return in the works, and even a new album already in progress, Cameron’s energy is as relentless as the music — plus, he teases his solo instrumental project Unsolicited for fans craving more.
