Blaxem are a devastatingly-heavy modern metal band from Chile, whose music yields comfort and joy in dark times, like a beacon of light accompanied by a distinct heavy feel that rings true. The band just premiered a new music video for their brutally technical new single entitled “Miscellaneous“. The music video was directed by Mural Sessions in one of Argentina’s most notable recording studios, Unisono Studio which happens to be owned by Gustavo Cerati of Soda Stereo. “Miscellaneous” is the first single & music video taken from their upcoming album Ethereal which will be released on May 16, 2025 via Eclipse Records. The album was produced by Dann Hidalgo and Guille Malatesta, engineered & mixed by Dann Hidalgo, and mastered by Hakeen Mishea.
“We were on tour in Argentina and had the chance to play at one of the most famous studios in Buenos Aires, Unisono Studio… For us, it felt surreal and very magical. This is the personal studio of Gustavo Cerati from the band Soda Stereo and he produced his last 4 albums there. It was a real privilege for us to be able to play a full set in his studio, and they did a great job filming and editing the music video. Hopefully he did not think it was too heavy for his studio.” – Dann Hidalgo (guitar/vocals)

Blaxem serve up a raucous monster-mash of hard driving crunch n’ burn with their new EP Ethereal. The album is amazingly uplifting in its passion, its power, and the unadulterated rawness of the musical presentation. More specifically, track to track, listeners will notice clever, non-linear songwriting chock full of twists, turns, and satisfying surprises as well as lead guitar performances that would bend our hearts to the breaking point and dazzle our senses with such intricate, power-shredding that one stands amazed that so many sweet notes could fit in one measure. As for overall theming, the band seems to illustrate world-culture as a pilgrimage of starless gloom through which we overcome our lack of purpose and direction through truth, strength, and empathy. That said, listeners will rejoice in this glorious journey through the underworld of gut-wrenching riffs and long shadowed caverns, thunderous drums and old stone corridors lit only by the dim and damp glow of torches flickering along the stories of the shattered world written on the walls in dark blood. The bass guitar is lethal phantom, banging in the attic, knocking about in the tool shed, pounding under the cellar stairs, and the growl vocal rips open your soul, raising haunted angels from the red mist to sing you a death knell. Ethereal features cover art designed by Hakeen Mishea, and it is scheduled for release on May 16, 2025.
