After his controversial departure from Immortal, Abbath went on to form his own solo act – his debut self-titled album is sure to draw much notice across metal circles. King ov Hell and Creature join Abbath for this debut effort that’s sure to turn heads in its release.

Vocally, he remains outstanding. His signature froggy screech and image-rich lyrics help set him apart.

The Outstrider

Abbath Band have released Outstrider as the follow up to their 2016 self-titled debut and it is a tighter, more well-rounded second album than their 2016 self-titled release. Fans of their riffage, robust pocket, black metal vocals croaked and screeched, as well as traditional metal-esque melodicism will find much to enjoy here while those looking for significant stylistic risks may be disappointed as Outstrider remains true to its riff heavy roots throughout.

Even with lineup changes since their initial debut album, Abbath still feels like a major presence on this recording; his voice carrying the album‘s themes with power and emotion. Ukri Suvilehto’s drumming is equally outstanding, adding urgency and extra hits without diluting their power or groove. Outstrider is an impressive album which will excite any death metal fan; from its opening build-up to an intense blast of death metal excellence on each song. Other highlights include tremolo picked riffs and double guitar harmony on “Hecate”, as well as galloping riffs in “Calm In Ire (Of Hurricane).” All in all, Outstrider is an outstanding release that should satisfy all fans of the genre.

Dread Reaver

Abbath’s demonic imagination runs wild through these songs like blood on steel. The band explodes out of the gates with Acid Haze, an explosive Black Metal extravaganza with scorching riffs provided by Ole and Mia’s bestial bass as well as Ukri’s infernal drumming.

Dread Reaver, the title track of Immortal’s music, is an epic metal anthem with some Motorhead influence in its chorus, yet also featuring Abbath’s classic metal influences that were ever present on Immortal. With such an intoxicating anthem for total metal mayhem.

Absent bassist Tom “King” Visnes’ departure due to differences between his beliefs and Abbath’s image, Dread Reaver cements Abbath as a top metal act. Abbath’s unique mix of blistering Speed Metal, traditional influences, and black metal creates its own sound while its unyielding force makes this album one of metal’s finest recordings.

At The Heart Of Winter

This album features some highly melodic riffs that will capture you with its catchiness and melodicism, while the clean guitars add an atmospheric tone that is commonplace among black metal songs. Overall, the entire record is fast-paced but precise guitar work separates it from amateur acts in its genre.

“Withstand the Fall of Time” perfectly illustrates the high quality of this album. With complex time signatures and a magnificent use of synthesizers, not to mention impressive drumming which gives this track its epic feel.

Immortal’s 1999 masterpiece Pure Holocaust was widely considered its pinnacle, though its release coincided with a period in black metal history when many bands began losing their direction and mystique. Sons of Northern Darkness was another great album from Immortal that year.

To War

Abbath Band from Bergen, Norway was formed following Abbath Doom Occulta (Olve Eikemo’s departure from Immortal guitarist-vocalist Abbath Doom Occulta). Devoted to modernising black metal’s traditional doom signifiers, this group mixes growling, gravel-toned vocals with vital, thrashing tempos and pulverising riffage for an emotional impactful soundscape. From 2015, when Abbath Doom Occulta had left Immortal guitarist-vocalist Abbath Doom Occulta had left this album unreleased since 2015 (Olve Eikemo left), this record marks their debut effort after Eikemo left.

Wynk Music now makes it possible for you to access To War and over 5000 other MP3 songs anywhere! Plus you can create and share playlists. Stay connected with Wynk for more music, movies & much more!

The tournament, an century-old competition between South American teams, will kick off June 20 in Atlanta at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of Major League Soccer club Atlanta United. The opening match will be played there with 71,000 seats available.

Lionel Messi has joined in this major debate over Brazil’s handling of the Covid crisis and threatened a boycott from his national team, so here is all you need to know.

Origins

Copa America dates back to 1916 when South American football clubs gathered together to form its governing body, first known as the South American Championship and later Campeonato Sudamericano de Futebol. Annual editions took place until 1918 was suspended due to flu outbreak; eventually returning in 1975 under its current moniker.

Since that time, the competition has undergone many alterations; most notably moving dates away from European summer tournaments to avoid clashing. Furthermore, CONMEBOL has explored different methods for structuring this tournament by inviting teams outside its 10 member federations memberships to enter and make up part of its structure.

Brazil are the reigning champions of this tournament, winning it six times overall and four times individually. Uruguay are close behind in success having claimed continental trophies on four separate occasions; more recently Chile emerged as an influential team claiming victory at 2015 tournament.

Format

Contrary to some major soccer tournaments, the Copa America comprises both group stage and knockout rounds. Each of its four groups comprises four teams that each face twice; then the top two finishers advance into quarterfinal matches which feature single elimination matches.

Semi-final and final matches that end in a tie after 90 minutes will proceed into extra time and, if still tied, a penalty shootout. This is because many of the tournament participants have club contracts that keep them busy elsewhere around the globe.

Argentina are pre-selected in Pot 1, alongside Mexico, hosts and reigning CONCACAF Nations League winners USA as well as Brazil – with Canada/T&T/Honduras/Costa Rica duelling it out for two spots to complete this group stage. Meanwhile the eight other Pots will be randomly drawn into one of four group stages.

Hosts

Copa America 2024 will see American cities such as Las Vegas, Arlington and Charlotte play host. The USMNT qualified by winning CONCACAF Nations League qualification; their placement could place them against Brazil or Argentina during group stage play.

Typically, the right to host Copa America rotates among CONMEBOL’s ten member federationss; Ecuador was initially scheduled to be on that rotation in 2024 but they pulled out due to economic and social concerns, leaving Colombia and Peru as alternatives. Both declined the offer while the US were eager to step in due to their prior experience hosting soccer’s biggest event and its associated revenue streams; furthermore they already boast some of the finest stadium infrastructure available worldwide with fans that renowned for rallying behind major events.

Finals

Copa America draws crowds every year as teams from across South America compete to claim continental glory, featuring some of the greatest names from world football as they vie for continental supremacy. Thanks to South America’s Joga Bonito philosophy and world footballers’ affinity for an entertaining match day experience, Copa America continues to draw the biggest names.

In 1916, the inaugural Copa America was held and was held every three to four years until 2007. Since 2007, however, it has been hosted every four years and saw Argentina claim victory after beating hosts Brazil 3-0 in its inaugural final – marking Argentina’s first major trophy win in 28 years and giving Lionel Messi his first senior international trophy sixteen years into his career.

Current Tournament Format The current format of this tournament allows four group winners to qualify automatically while runners-up compete against each other in a play-in round; should both of those wins occur, then they will join four quarter-final losers in the knockout stage. United States advanced through to this play-in round after beating Trinidad and Tobago by an aggregate score of 4-2; Canada, Costa Rica and Mexico will likely also join this pool of hopefuls.

Randy’s puppetry commentary on human absurdity is legendary, offering humorous yet pointed truths to audiences everywhere. For instance, Randy chronicled all the silly mistakes Ernest Hemingway made during his life – such as trying to read him when writing.

He frequently covers plagiarism as a topic of stand-up comedy and this often proves an engaging source of material for his performance.

He’s a puppet

Randy the purple puppet is widely considered one of Australia’s funniest comedians. Created by Heath McIvor and performing around the world regularly, Randy can often be found engaging audiences through observational humor that ranges from polemics, melancholia and existential issues while remaining humorous.

He possesses an acute sense of humor, managing to keep audiences in suspense for an extended period of time – almost making them forget that he’s just puppetry! Furthermore, his comic timing skills allow for even greater impactful performances.

Randy delivers solo shows that poke fun at modern culture and everyday life’s absurdities, while also serving as an accomplished writer who has garnered critical acclaim for his performances; one such show, Randy Writes a Novel was nominated for Edinburgh Comedy Festival‘s Best Show Award in 2015. Furthermore, Randy frequently collaborates with Sammy J, touring extensively as part of their duo act.

He’s a comedian

Heath McIvor is an Australian puppet comedian known for voicing and operating Randy Feltface on an international comedy circuit. Over eight solo stand-up shows, sold-out seasons in London and New York and multiple appearances at Montreal Just For Laughs festivals are his credentials as an entertainer.

He is widely recognized for his high-energy existential crisis humor and quick-witted, rapid arm movement. Additionally, he has collaborated with musical comedian Sammy J to produce various stage shows such as Ricketts Lane and Bin Night; more recently Modus Operandy debuted in Melbourne this year.

Sammy J often relies on him for making pointed observations about human foibles and absurdities, with often colorful language. Purple Privilege shows his more offensive side when he describes stomping on a cockroach that’s stuck in an empty coffee cup! In another show he admits his hypocrisy by calling his decision to give his date’s guinea pig an unexpected mercy kill as “hard choice for a vegan,” yet quickly confesses his love of eating fish and chips himself!

He’s a performer

Feltface is an Australian comedian renowned for his distinctive perspective of life and culture. He dissects inherited belief systems while making humorous observations, often delving into his privilege as a cisgender white male. One of Australia’s most beloved puppet comedians, he’s featured on multiple television programs while amassing over 1.7 million TikTok followers.

He has performed in theaters nationwide with sold-out seasons. Furthermore, he appeared on American television’s Bring the Funny show as well as recording multiple comedy specials.

He’s a writer

Randy Feltface is an Australian puppet comedian voiced and operated by Heath McIvor. He performs solo shows and tours internationally; additionally he has appeared on Australian television in both full length solo shows as well as Sammy J and Randy in Ricketts Lane series.

Randy Feltface took a throwback moment during a recent special. A fan had sent an email alerting him to how similar one of his older jokes was to one by George Carlin two years prior to Randy’s birth. While both bits may share similarity in tone and composition, neither are likely guilty of copying each other’s material directly.

This piece offers an intriguing examination of plagiarism in comedy, as well as the difficulties associated with trying to write new jokes while treading ground that many other comedians have already covered. Yet it is easy to see why Randy found this bit distressing, and how it might make him reconsider how he approaches his own work.

Peter Sagar, best known for playing guitar for Mac DeMarco and later the Homeshake Band, returns with another album released under their moniker Helium, this time taking on more sultry, dark sounds.

Former tour guitarist Andrew Weeden has transitioned away from his signature sound of droning guitar music for R&B with an infectious soundscape.

What is Homeshake Band?

Homeshake Band is the musical project of Peter Sagar, an Edmonton expat living in Montreal. Sagar toured as guitarist with Mac DeMarco before releasing two cassettes before debuting his LP “In the Shower”.

His style is known as bedroom pop and fits within the new trend of slacker lo-fi rock popular among Gen Z children. This genre often depicts struggles between freedom and isolation with lyrics often featuring references to smoking pot or being lazy as its focus.

Helium’s sound is groggy, with a beat that fits nicely for either an early Sunday morning haze or for drifting off to sleep. Additionally, its synthesizer sounds hint at space travel or cosmic explorations. On Helium, Sagar brought on Jerry Paper producer Lucas Nathan to help produce, which enabled him to switch up his previous digital production for more analog touches that initially attracted fans to his work.

Who are the members of Homeshake Band?

Peter Sagar of Edmonton now residing in Montreal has created Homeshake Band as his musical project. A former touring guitarist for Mac DeMarco, Peter has established a successful solo career by releasing subdued, indie compositions under his own moniker. After many years on tour and his latest release Under the Weather depicting depression and loneliness.

He can also be heard singing several tracks such as the melodic “Cash Is Money,” with its vocal distortion providing him a helium-like tone. Throughout the performance he makes frequent references to his relationship with his girlfriend as well as appreciation of simple pleasures like dinner or midnight snacks.

Homeshake Band, a new wave of Canadian indie rock that draws heavily from nineties slacker music, are set to play several Valentine’s Day shows this year – visit their website for more information! The songs by this indie group evoke feelings of laid-back romance and yearning for intimacy – making them extremely popular with millennials.

What is Homeshake Band’s style of music?

Homeshake is the stage name of Montreal-based musician Peter Sagar. After touring guitarist for Mac DeMarco for several years prior to deciding to pursue his own project in 2013, In the Shower became his debut release as Homeshake with heavy guitar riffs and an R&B influence that immediately made it identifiable as Homeshake.

With each album that Sagar released, his style gradually evolved from his familiar surf rock guitar sound into more dreamy R&B-influenced compositions. Helium expands on this aesthetic territory further, creating a relaxing yet contemplative listening experience reminiscent of sonic hygge.

Homeshake’s music may be more laid back than some of the newer Bedroom Pop artists who have come into prominence recently, yet still stands out within its genre. At live shows, his groovy guitar riffs and monotone, almost bored voice create a relaxing yet endearing ambiance for listeners – creating truly unforgettable shows!

What is Homeshake Band’s sound like?

Homeshake Band‘s music draws upon elements from indie rock and slacker rock genres. Peter Sagar embodies these genres through his falsetto singing voice and relaxed melodies; his stage presence engages fans and keeps them invested.

Peter stands out among lo-fi artists with his distinct sound. His signature synth consists of two square wave oscillators running through long filter modulation with low frequency cut and variable LFO vibrato settings for achieving his desired sound.

On his fourth album, Helium, Homeshake showcases an eclectic range of sounds and beats. Songs like “Fresh Air” combine alternative electronic sounds with everyday sounds such as wind rushing past windows or voices speaking in the background – creating a well-rounded album with great cohesion. He also employs different vocal styles for each song adding depth to the overall sound – while Homeshake provides soothing and relaxing sounds to help listeners relax.

3ICE Hockey is an exciting three-on-three league that travels to different cities over six weeks for its six-week season, featuring teams coached by former NHL players like Ray Bourque, Guy Carbonneau, Grant Fuhr and John LeClair.

Marty Brodeur was drawn to the league because of its unique rules – particularly no power plays during overtime – as well as its fast pace of play. He found much satisfaction from playing in this competition.

The League

3ICE has already revolutionized the NHL‘s 3-on-3 overtime format and its innovative rules could turn it into an Olympic event. Furthermore, this league uses half-ice rinks, eliminating power plays and speeding up play – drawing attention to players’ incredible stick handling, passing, shooting skills.

Johnston’s cornerstone drawcard is his roster of former NHL players serving as coaches on each bench, such as Hockey Hall-of-Famer Brian Mullen and ECHL stars Larry Murphy and Grant Fuhr.

Teams compete each week in a tournament-style schedule with games played in different cities each time, culminating in playoffs that end with one team hoisting the Patrick Cup as champion. Season runs June to August.

The Teams

As the NHL season comes to a close, an emerging league has begun their tour across America: 3ICE Hockey is an upstart 3-on-3 summer league featuring teams coached by former NHL players that uses an exciting weekly tournament format – taking games into cities all across America.

Each week, four out of the eight teams compete in a tournament-style competition. Instead of being tied to any particular city or location, teams are named after an NHL player leading them and thus create more identifiable brands for fans.

Team Mullen is led by former Montreal Canadiens star Joe Mullen; while Hall-of-Famer Grant Fuhr led his team all the way to its championship weekend of Las Vegas’ inaugural season.

The Schedule

Heart-racing, adrenaline-pumping 3ICE 3-on-3 hockey league offers fans nothing short of pure unadulterated excitement. Boasting six teams led by Hall-of-Famer coaches and former NHL players, 3ICE guarantees fans nothing but pure enjoyment and undiluted excitement!

Gameday in the 3ICE league features two eight-minute halves with an uninterrupted running clock that only stops for injuries or penalties, penalty shots instead of power plays, and let coaches select shooters (in future it might let fans choose them via the app).

After its debut season was so successful, 3ICE will return for more excitement and thrills this August 12 in Philadelphia at its Patrick Cup Championship event.

The TV Deals

Johnston understands the necessity of 3ICE’s long-term success and only partners with investors who share his long-term vision. For this reason, she only accepts investors that share his commitment.

Sports betting as an additional revenue stream for 3ICE will also be explored as an avenue. He believes its tournament format and strong offense make it attractive to betting partners.

However, 3ICE faces its greatest opportunity in the form of what may happen in the future. Should 3-on-3 hockey become part of Olympic competition in 2024, that would be an enormous boon for 3ICE and help it grow even further. Also important is the NHL‘s 2022 expansion plans into Quebec City and Vegas which should increase interest in 3-on-3 hockey even more.

The Final Words

3ICE kicked off its inaugural season this past weekend and presented the Patrick Cup, commonly referred to as “the Patty”. Teams Murphy, Johnston, and Bourque all earned spots in this year’s championship game.

E.J. Johnston, son of former Bruins goaltender Eddie Johnston, founded this league to offer fans a taste of three-on-three overtime in hockey nearly 10 years ago. Furthermore, it hopes to test a rule which prohibits players from crossing over back and forth along a center red line like in basketball which slows down play.

Joe Mullen, an NHL Hall-of-Famer who participated in this first season of 3ICE games and enjoyed 16 seasons playing, agrees that they’ve been fun to watch – he can’t wait until their tour stop in Las Vegas next June!

Music provides an experience unique to humanity that connects people through sounding objects. This experience can take many forms – from rock concerts and orchestra performances, to soundtracks for movies and TV shows, soundtrack albums or soundtracks used as background sound tracks.

Composers frequently draw their inspiration for musical compositions from stories, poems and other forms of art – be they stories, poems or art forms. Composers may also name their piece after such sources of inspiration – for instance Monteverdi named L’Orfeo after Orpheus from Greek mythology.

It is an art

Music is an expressive art form with numerous expressions; from folk songs and dance tunes to electronic compositions. Music can take many forms; its core definition is defined as any combination of vocal or instrumental sounds organized tones according to culturally determined standards for rhythm, melody and harmony.

Music can also serve as a powerful medium to express feelings and share ideas, with its use able to elicit both emotions and promote ideas. Music‘s therapeutic benefits make it popularly used for relaxation therapy sessions as well as social events bringing people together.

Music can be created using different instruments and voices, either live or recorded, with the latter offering greater expressive possibilities such as vibrato, slides and timbre effects. Music also expresses emotion through changes to its rhythmic structures as well as through rhythmic fluctuations; sometimes its meaning even conveyed with silence.

It is a form of communication

Music is an expressive form of communication that has the capacity to elicit profound emotions in both listener and performer alike. Music can support social activities, build cultural identity and even unlock autobiographical memories for patients living with dementia. Furthermore, concerts or internet-based performances offer people opportunities for connection.

Not only can music have pitch, rhythm and volume characteristics but it can also feature other elements like timbre (instrument or voice), texture and dynamics that convey emotion or character – even between individuals who don’t share a common language – such as deaf musicians like Evelyn Glennie.

Musical communication requires significant amounts of interpersonal coordination and cooperation between musicians, due to them needing to coordinate their breath, head, and arm movements in sync with keeping a beat – similar to how infants first learn social interactions from caregivers.

It is a way of expressing emotions

Music can have a powerful influence over human emotion. Even sounds that we might not typically consider music – such as washing machine noise or an explosion’s explosion – have been used creatively in creative works to convey meaning and convey feelings, making musical art an integral part of every culture worldwide.

Musical expression relies on manipulating pitch (inflections, vibrato, slides), volume (dynamics, accents and tremolo etc), rhythm, duration and timbre to convey expressive meaning. These elements come together to communicate emotional messages from love to hatefulness – not to mention improving children’s social skills by playing music together!

Studies have demonstrated that people who share musical performances together tend to develop greater empathy towards one another. This may be largely attributed to learning how to read each other’s expressions through sound; an effective means for building empathy and supporting emotional growth.

It is a way of expressing ideas

Music can help express our ideas in various ways, whether that means recalling happy memories or stirring feelings of affection for another. Furthermore, research shows that children who play music together tend to develop better social and emotional skills than those who don’t.

Music has long been used as a vehicle to bring about social and political change. It inspired and motivated civil rights marchers and helped bring attention to issues like police brutality and systematic racism.

Music‘s definition depends on context and culture; generally speaking it involves arrangements of sounds with relationship to pitch, rhythm and tone. Music may take various forms ranging from homophony (one melody with accompaniment) to polyphony (multiple melodies). Written music notations exists to document this activity.

Charlotte Day Wilson stands out in Toronto’s lively R&B scene as an artist with an innovative and progressive vision. After debuting with EP CDW and Stone Woman respectively in 2016, she’s poised to make waves worldwide with Alpha.

She takes advantage of vintage bass lines and gospel assonance to craft an innovative take on R&B and soul that showcases her superb vocal abilities.

1. Work

Charlotte Day Wilson of Toronto has an admirable habit of showing her emotions through her music. Her songs reflect her commitment to being an honest artist who seeks to empower and encourage others through her creativity.

“Work” begins with a melancholic melody that sets the mood for its introspective lyrics, exploring struggles of finding purpose in work and life – echoing with individuals questioning their goals, ambitions and daily efforts.

Wilson has experienced impressive growth since her debut EP CDW was released in 2016. Since then, her 2021 project Alpha has established her as an in-demand producer and multi-instrumentalist with collaborations including those with BBNG’s Tavares, Daniel Caesar, Merna Bishouty. Additionally, Wilson produces her own songs, placing her among a very small minority – multiple estimates place the figure between five percent of producers worldwide and five percent women producers – producing their own material herself; no surprise then that the debut single off Alpha is entitled “Work.”

2. Stone Woman

Charlotte Day Wilson, a Toronto-based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, boasts an effortlessly smooth blend of jazz, R&B, soul, and classical influences that is already classic sounding. What sets Charlotte Day Wilson apart though, is her ability to capture life’s details through storytelling – how emotions connect us to those around us and vice versa.

Beginning with Ines – a woman consumed by grief over the loss of her mother – as the story opens she realizes that even as her body becomes solidified she becomes aware that stone contains pieces from things once living; shadow and light both exist within this process of transformation.

As you explore The Fen in Lords of the Fallen, you may come across a petrified stone woman asking for your assistance. Here’s our guide on how to help her and have her leave so that you can discover more of your quest together; once she does leave she will offer up insight about upcoming battles as well as reward you with a necklace accessory that reduces physical damage done against you.

3. In Your Eyes

On this ballad, strings, woodwinds, and piano create an atmosphere of melancholy and nostalgia. While Wilson’s voice holds it together well despite some loose production issues.

Wilson’s second EP is an atmospheric, immersive queer experience crafted to perfection by her meticulous production sensibility and propelled by her timeless vocal talent. Cyan Blue captures all shades of human experience, from melancholy to bitterness and regret through Wilson’s clear vision.

After her debut album Alpha made Billboard’s Top 10 R&B chart last year, Canadian-born CDW has solidified her position as an indie soul act to watch out for. Her timeless yet contemporary sounds come through her distinct lens; creating songs about doomed lovers lamenting lost relationships while sipping on cheap liquor from dimly-lit living rooms over bottomless bottles of cheap bourbon.
