Formulas Morbid Angel

While the pandemic was reaping havoc upon the live music market, Bay Area thrash extraordinaire Death Angel was taking the opportunity to deliver an assortment of bangers and deep cuts via live stream with the fury of a thousand suns, and the results have now been codified in physical form for man and thrashing beast alike…

Death Angel was formed in 1982 by cousins, guitarists Rob Cavestany and Gus Pepa, bassist Dennis Pepa and drummer Andy Galeon. Mark Osegueda, who is second cousin to the founding members and was their roadie, joined as the vocalist in 1984…

Composer, clarinetist, singer and educator Angel Bat Dawid announces the release of a new work, Requiem For Jazz. A 12-movement suite composed, arranged, and inspired in part by dialogue from Edward O. Bland’s 1959 film The Cry of Jazz, the album is a wide-ranging treatise on the African American story from one of its most astute narrators.

On his second Pentatone album Sogno, tenor Javier Camarena pays tribute to Francesco Paolo Tosti, together with pianist Ángel Rodríguez. Camarena and Rodríguez have curated a collection of Tosti’s songs that not only include some of his greatest hits but also highlight lesser-known works, including songs in French and English.

Great new project of the spanish guitar player Angel Ontalva, recorded in Russia under the name of No Grooves. Blood Moon Tonight is a 2nd volume of octoberXart Russian series, a collaboration with the Siberia-based label AKT Produkt. Recorded live in studio in Tomsk in the Fall of 2016.

Official download of the Angel Olsen live stream 06/18/20 from Echo Mountain. For the first in this series, Angel Olsen will be performing Half Way Home, her debut album, (almost) in full in addition to other rarities, streaming from the Church at Echo Mountain Recording in Asheville, NC.

ARC ANGEL is not a new shindig in the field; their debut album was released way back in 1983. However, since then the band hasn’t been releasing material out and only recently Jeff Cannata, the man behind ARC ANGEL, patched together the project’s second album "Harlequins Of Light"…

Composer, clarinetist, singer & spiritual jazz soothsayer Angel Bat Dawid descended on Chicago's jazz & improvised music scene just a few years ago. In very short time, the potency, prowess, spirit & charisma of her cosmic musical proselytizing has taken her from relatively unknown improviser to borderline ubiquitous performer in Chicago's avant-garde. On any given night you can find Angel adding aura to ensembles led by Ben LaMar Gay, or Damon Locks, or Jaimie Branch, or Matthew Lux, or even, on a Summer night in 2018, onstage doing a woodwind duo with Roscoe Mitchell. For her recorded debut on International Anthem, The Oracle, we've chosen to release a batch of tracks that Angel created entirely alone – performing, overdubbing & mixing all instruments & voices by her self – recorded using only her cell phone in various locations, from London UK to Cape Town RSA, but primarily from her residency in the attic of the historic Radcliffe Hunter mansion in Bronzeville, Southside, Chicago.

Spanish composer and musician Ángel Ontalva is perhaps best known as a central member of the Spanish band October Equus, but he has been involved in multiple side projects and collaborative productions in the last few years as well, in addition to establishing a solo career. Land of Rain and Steel is a solo guitar album recorded by Angel Ontalva in 2007 during the recording sessions for the album 'Charybdis' October Equus. These improvisations in real time, without overdubs or editing of any kind: what you hear is what was recorded at the time, with the exception of rhythmic loop at the end of The Border, which itself was published in the mix.

Reissued on CD (including remastered audio, three bonus tracks and a booklet) is a 1983 US AOR/pomp rock album from a band/project featuring Jeff Cannata, formerly of Jasper Rath. Session bass on the album came from future Bon Jovi man Hugh McDonald. James Christian (House of Lords) sung on backing vocals on almost all tracks. Cannata would not resurface until 1988 with his second album, although by then the Arc Angel tag had been dropped in favour of Jeff Cannata's own surname.
