The Ukrainian industrial metal act Aghiazma has released a new single, “Mental Abuse”, taken from band’s second full-length album “Carnage” which will be released on November 30th, 2022.

Many will know Aghiazma from their participation in our free charity download compilation “Electronic Resistance – A Darkwave / Post​-​Punk Compilation From The Ukrainian Underground” available via Bandcamp.

Here’s the video for “Mental Abuse”.

Aghiazma was created in 2013 in Kyiv, Ukraine and in 2015 made it to the finals of Global Battle of the Bands in Ukraine where they took the 5th place. At the beginning of 2017, the band took part in the semi-finals of the national selection for Eurovision 2017.

In 2018 Aghiazma released first long-play album “Plus Ultra”, after some touring with “Plus Ultra” the band started to release new singles supported by video clips and changed the sound of the songs towards a more metal oriented palet.

Why we ask

Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.
