The void expands once more… Cosmic Void Festival 2026 unveils another wave of artists, widening the constellation of bands set to gather this September in Camden Town. With each new revelation, our descent into darkness becomes more undeniable, an odyssey of rare performances, cult acts, and underground power.

Colombian thrash metal band Riptor has confirmed the release of their new music video “Villain” on November 21, marking the arrival of their second single from their most recent album The Salvation.

The band explained that each track from The Salvation will be released together with its own video, forming a complete visual and musical concept. Because of this plan, the digital version of the album has not yet been released in full. However, the record is already available in physical form, presented in a Digipack edition, allowing fans early access to the artwork, liner notes, and conceptual vision behind the work.The band explained that each track from the album will be released together with its own video, forming a complete visual and musical concept.

After six years of silence, the Belgian black metal institution Enthroned resurfaces with Ashspawn, an album that redefines their position among the genre’s enduring titans. Set for release on December 5, 2025, through Season of Mist, this record arrives as a ritual more than a collection of songs—an invocation built from years of introspection, decay, and resurrection.
