We play three shows with One Machine (featuring Steve Smyth formerly of Testament/Nevermore/Forbidden) and Endeavour this week. The run of dates kicks off with us returning to The Music Room in Ipswich, followed by The Gryphon in Bristol and finishing in Glasgow at Audio.
The tracks are reworkings of 8 songs originally found on the After Extinction album and the subsequent Extinction After EP, completely re-recorded for a full album release. After Extinction was a landmark release for the band, as it was our first album to break into the mainstream music charts, peaking at number 85 on the Official UK Album Downloads Chart. We decided to release these songs in their definitive format as a brand new album, Extinctions End.
A Slave to the Grind from last nights sessions at Unit One Studios. We have moved to a multi-camera set up and will be improving the cameras and audio as we go along this year.
The mixing and mastering stage for the new Kaine album, Extinctions End, has now been completed, and the album is now ready for release in early 2026. The album consists of 8 tracks, originally written, recorded, and released during the Covid era, which have been re-imagined, re-recorded, and altered ahead of the band's relaunch in 2026.
Kaine have been keeping the flame of heavy metal alive since 2009. Rooted in East Anglia’s thriving scene, the band blend Sabbath, Priest, Maiden, and thrash influences into a sound that’s fast, heavy, and defiantly DIY. Sixteen years on, they remain one of the UK’s most enduring heavy metal acts, with a catalogue that charts their resilience and evolution. In this interview with TheNwothm, Kaine reflect on their journey and share what’s next.
