Abigail Williams is a black metal band originally from Phoenix, Arizona, but now operating out of Los Angeles. They take their name from one of the initial accusers in the Salem witch trials of 1692, which led to the arrest and imprisonment of more than 150 accused witches. The band’s sound started out as an epic sort of symphonic black metal in the vein of Cradle of Filth or Dimmu Borgir, but over the years they’ve steered more and more toward a traditional Nordic black metal aesthetic.

This week’s edition of Black Metal Friday features the epic track “Beyond The Veil” from Abigail Williams 2012 offering Becoming. Check it out here below.

Last night, Sunday, August 23, 2015, saw the long-awaited series premiere of AMC’s new original drama Fear the Walking Dead, the prequel/spin-off to the network’s highly successfully series The Walking Dead, which starts its sixth season this October.

The 90-minute premiere went along mostly at a slow pacing, mostly introducing us to new central characters — high school guidance counselor Madison Clark (Kim Dickens), her daughter overachieving daughter Alicia Clark (Alycia Debnam-Carey), her drug addict son Nick Clark (Frank Dillane), and supportive English teacher live-in fiance Travis Manawa (Cliff Curtis). Thanks to Nick’s drug problems, the family has been through a lot, and as we know from The Walking Dead universe, it’s nothing compared to watch they’re about to face on a grand scale.

AMC has released a sneak peek of the upcoming second episode. Watch the scene here below, which involves Madison and one of her students, Tobias, the bullied kid who tried to warn her of the impending doom.

The Satanic Swedish metal juggernaut known as Ghost is streaming its brand new album Meliora in its entirety right now ahead of the official release this Friday (August 21, 2015).

Listen to the entire album here below.

Meliora is Ghost’s third full-length effort and finds them exploring a heavier side of their sonic palate than ever before. It is also the first to feature “new” singer Papa Emeritus III. The joke there is that it’s the same singer dressed as an evil Pope, but with each album he gets a new mask and the next sequential Roman numeral just like the succession of real Popes.
