Gaerea Shares a New Standalone Single and Video for “Submerged” – Sign to Century Media Records for New Album in 2026
Gaerea is nothing short of a beautiful enigma rooted in musical extremity and utter passion.

Today they usher in a new era with the announcement of their signing to global metal powerhouse Century Media Records.

The single which was produced by the band and longtime collaborator, Miguel Tereso of Demigod Recordings, further entwines the thorny branches of musical and emotional possibility that the band has built their reputation on, both live and on record.

CONCERT REVIEW: Orbit Culture – Repentance Live at The Magic Stick
It started out as a quiet Monday evening in Midtown Detroit last week, but the show happening at The Magic Stick was going to change all that. The snug, swanky second-floor spot is a former bowling alley that provides an intimate space to catch some of the best, up-and-coming bands out there. So having Swedish stars, Orbit Culture headline at this cozy hall made a lot of sense. The Extreme, Modern Metal darlings are currently opening on a few dates for the “Here Comes the Pain” tour with the legendary Slipknot. When they are not crushing it in arenas playing for maggots, they are making their own headlining appearances. They brought along Chicago’s Repentance with them to Detroit and the night was about to get very loud.
