ABOUT THE ALBUM
PATRIARCHS IN BLACK – Covered in Black (CD Release by Brutal Planet Records)
Brutal Planet Records unveils Covered in Black, an EP by PATRIARCHS IN BLACK that redefines six classic tracks with a dark, riff-heavy twist. Limited to just 500 CDs, this release features five unique covers and one original song, blending doom, metal, and a touch of stoner rock to put a fresh, heavy spin on familiar favorites. With covers of Kiss's "Rock Bottom," Twisted Sister's "Destroyer," Peter Gabriel's "Games Without Frontiers," Motörhead's "The Chase is Better than the Catch," and Led Zeppelin's "Friends," each track brings the spirit of the original while immersing it in PATRIARCHS IN BLACK’s signature sound.
Founding members Dan Lorenzo (Hades, Non-Fiction) and Johnny Kelly (Type O Negative, Danzig, Quiet Riot) lead this project, with Lorenzo previously collaborating with Bobby Blitz on The Cursed. The EP's lineup is rounded out by guest vocalists and bassists on each track, adding diverse and dynamic interpretations to the mix. An original song, "My Veneration," offers a taste of PATRIARCHS IN BLACK’s own sonic vision, built on heavy riffage and dark atmospheres. Housed in a six-panel booklet jewel case, this EP is a must-have for fans of Black Sabbath, Trouble, St. Vitus, Down, Crowbar, Corrosion of Conformity, and Type O Negative.
Covered in Black celebrates the power of reinvention, pulling these classics into new depths with grit, heaviness, and an unwavering respect for the originals.

BPV1666 HADES - THE DOWNSIDE 732131697834
ABOUT THE ALBUM
The Downside is a prime example of Hades' ability to evolve while staying true to their thrash and power metal roots. Originally released in 2000 by Metal Blade Records, this album marks the band's second comeback, further solidifying their place in metal history. Founded by guitarist Dan Lorenzo in 1978, Hades has consistently pushed the boundaries of heavy music, and The Downside is no exception. This album is notable for featuring guest performances by metal heavyweights, including D.D. Verni of Overkill on bass and Billy Milano of S.O.D./M.O.D., who provides backing vocals on the reprise of "Ground Zero N.Y.C."—a track written and recorded before the tragic events of 9/11.
Hades masterfully blends power metal with thrash, showcasing classic songwriting skills infused with a raw, aggressive edge. The songs on The Downside are diverse yet cohesive, ranging from the Fates Warning-inspired "Hail to the Thief" to the ultra-heavy metal intensity of "Pay the Price." The band remains focused on crafting solid heavy metal tracks, avoiding the trends of the time and delivering music that is both timeless and impactful.
This Brutal Planet Records reissue marks the first time The Downside is available on vinyl, presented in a striking Blood Moon color that perfectly captures the album’s intense and brooding atmosphere. Limited to just 300 copies, the release includes a 12x12 full-color lyrics insert with photos, meticulously mastered for vinyl by Rob Colwell.
For fans of Nevermore, Watchtower, Deliverance, Overkill, Sacred Reich, and Badlands, The Downside is an essential addition to any metal collection—a powerful and varied album that showcases Hades at their finest.
