Pathways Get Mysterious With “Miserae” Video (Exclusive)
We’ve teamed up with South Florida hardcore/metal band Pathways to bring you the exclusive music video premiere for “Miserae”, which comes from their upcoming EP Dies Irae. The band, who signed to Tragic Hero Records, have released a video that is sparse yet dark, mixing footage of the band performing against a beautiful woman who seems to bring destruction to everything she nears, from setting a tree on fire to shattering a mirror simply by looking at it.
The track surprised me in that it isn’t the typical metalcore fare that I thought it was going to be. There’s definitely some technical aptitude to be found and there are dashes of classical influence sprinkled throughout. I definitely recommend checking it out and giving it a shot!
Guitarist Jon Rose tells Bloody-Disgusting:
The entire EP is a concept about the four horsemen of the apocalypse. With each rider symbolizing conquest, war, famine, and death. “Miserae” takes us on the menacing journey of the pale horse, death.
The folks over at Tragic Hero Records have showed us nothing, but support so far. It’s been a truly pleasant experience in every way possible. We have high hopes for the future.

Katharine Isabelle Battles Cosmic Horror in Exclusive ‘Junction Row’ Teaser Trailer [Fantasia 2026]
Among Fantasia 2026‘s massive final wave of programming this morning is Raven Banner’s Lovecraftian creature feature Junction Row, starring Canadian horror icon Katharine Isabelle, and we’re exclusively unveiling the teaser trailer.
Junction Row will celebrate its World Premiere at Fantasia on July 28.
Watch a housing compound fall under siege from Lovecraftian creatures more dangerous than drug dealers in the trailer below.
Junction Row follows “Juno, a recovering addict who leaves a fringe housing compound for a better life, leaving her beloved Ruby behind. When she learns that Ruby has gone missing, Juno returns, only to find Junction Row has become a hotbed of criminal activity, but she encounters much more than menacing drug dealers on her mission to find Ruby.”
Isabelle stars as Juno, with Natalie Brown (FX’s The Strain) as Ruby.
The creature feature marks the feature debut by director Ashlea Wessel, who has directed festival-favorite shorts like 2018’s “Tick” and 2020’s “Weirdo”.
Wessel co-writes Junction Row with Clown in a Cornfield author Adam Cesare and Matt Serafini.
Katharine Isabelle is coming off a brief appearance in Kane Parsons’ Backrooms, and more recently appeared in holiday horror It’s a Wonderful Knife. The horror icon is arguably best known for her turn as the eponymous werewolf in Ginger Snaps and for her roles in American Mary and Freddy vs Jason.
Fantasia teases that Junction Row tells “a story where the fear of the unknown isn’t confined to what lies above, but what waits beneath.”
Stay tuned for more from Fantasia as the festival gets underway later this month.
