I post this as a supreme amount of jealousy courses through my veins… if only these shows were in the UK… or if I could get to Slovenia or Hungary!
VULTURE INDUSTRIES will play two shows in February, which will see the Norwegian Progressive Extreme Metallers perform a set which will include some unexpected material [...]
A few months ago I reviewed Cryptic Throne’s “The Wolves Gather…” (you can read the review by clicking here) and now the album has finally been released! To celebrate this, here’s an interview with Abyssous, the mastermind behind Cryptic Throne…
Lou: Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions. Before [...]
Finally, after few weeks of silence and uncerntainty the time has come to shed some light on the ZORORMR’s follow up to the now cult “Kval” debut! The second album will be entitled “IHS” (as for Latin “In Hoc Signo (Vinces)” and will contain 10 songs out of 11 recorded at Red Dragon Studio in [...]
This is Black Metal. While that’s not going to be the extent of my review, it could be if I wanted it to. You see, Throne of Katarsis are the quintessential Black Metal band. There are no gimmicks and no prog rock interludes on this album. There’s nothing to take away from the overall ‘black-metalness’ [...]
It’s no secret that I’m a HUGE fan of Poland’s Devilish Impressions, so it should come as no surprise to find out that I’m currently very (VERY) excited. In fact, I’m been maintaining this insane level of excitement since Christmas Day when the band revealed the following news…

Quotes
You give me a stage and you will see the difference between Nokturnel and most other bands.
— Tom Stevens, Nokturnel, http://bit.ly/Injd6y...so now we’re thinking about the next step. And don’t worry. When we hit the road, I guarantee we won’t miss the UK!
— Damyen, Northern Plague, http://bit.ly/JuT8SgCryptic Throne is a dark shamanic ritual. An entity which exists for the Primordial Thursian Worship of Dark Germanic Heathenism.
— Abyssous, Cryptic Throne, http://bit.ly/IlJsYsThe underlying theme is through the discovery of truth we find ultimate hopelessness. Each song explores death in a different context and theme.
— Voldamares, Eclipse Eternal, http://bit.ly/Hv2kYEI am personally still a CD buyer and probably always will be. I like having the physical artwork in my hands. Mp3’s to me are not very attractive because I feel I’m not getting my money’s worth.
— Will, Vesperian Sorrow, http://bit.ly/Hx69gWWe don’t adhere to any specific writing style. If something works, it gets improved, then it gets used!
— Gideon, Crow Black Sky, http://bit.ly/InizpyThe lyrics are mainly based in fantasy, and try to convey a larger concept, peppered with metaphors that hint at some very personal events and feelings.
— Ruptured Souls, The Furious Horde, http://bit.ly/HyfPUxEven when all seems fine Plaag will still be around to do a little tormenting here and there...
— Somber von Plaag, Plaag, http://bit.ly/IvTyW2I think illegal downloading is fine if you download just to listen, and if you like it, you buy it. If you don’t like it, delete it off your computer.
— Mike Priest, Absence of the Sacred, http://bit.ly/IGNpWkI think more bands should prioritize exposure over sales. The more exposure, the more sales. Be it ticket sales, album sales, or merch sales. That’s the way I see it.
— Necrol, Secrets She Kept, http://bit.ly/HEaNHXTwitter Updates
