					<description><![CDATA[Just to be clear, NEW MEXICAN DOOM CULT is neither from New Mexico nor are they Mexican. They are in fact based in Gävle, Sweden which would also make them, uhm, Swedish. On January 23, 2026, they released their second full-length album, Ziggurat, via Majestic Mountain Records. In early March, Gary Hernandez, writer/editor with Metal Temple, caught up with Nils Ahnland, vocalist and guitarist, to discuss everything from the band’s origins to ancient Egypt to some background details on several of the tracks. ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[WARCOE hails from Pesaro, Italy. Formed in 2021, following the year of our plague, the Doom trio has been blazing a trail through the Italian Doom scene with one monumental album after the other. On September 26, 2025 they released their third full-length album, “Upon Tall Thrones,” which not only weighed in at 8/10 on the Metal Temple scales but hit #1 on Doom Charts for September 2025. This month Gary Hernandez, writer and editor for Metal Temple, was able to catch up with Stefano Fiorelli (guitars, vocals) to discuss the origin story of WARCOE, details of their latest album, and even speculate on the impacts of AI and streaming platforms.   ]]></description>
