MISANTROF ANTIRecords releases second EP of PLAAG

On July 11, 2012, in CD / MP3 / EP, Freebie of the Week, Let's Go Viral, New Releases, News, by Loucifer

This is sort of another freebie for this week, but it’s so much more than that… It’s Plaag! I LOVE PLAAG!!!

PLAAG’s second EP titled “IRONIC TWISTS AND TALES” is the natural follow up to the full length album “UGH!” released on Misantrof ANTIRecords in 2011. This is hellish rock’n'roll just like you would except from this notorious band. This release also introduce the new member “NEGATIV” on vocals. Together this duo sounds better than ever.

Mastermind Somber Von Plaag, states, talking about this last effort:

“IRONIC TWISTS AND TALES” Ep is a collection of 6 songs each dealing with misanthropy in their own way, both NEGATIV and me approached the subject from various angles ranging from sarcasm to a more serious view on the matter.

“IRONIC TWISTS AND TALES” rocks so hard. Musically the EP feels like a natural evolution of their first release. Their sound is nasty, ironic, catchy and as raw as it could be, setting it as a superb example of how black metal can be taken down to its rock ‘n’ roll roots.
The great news on “IRONIC TWISTS AND TALES” is the new additional vocalist and songwriter Negativ, taking the whole project to a higher and nastier level. Negativ strikes down from the cradle of Black Metal, Norway, and he gives this extra touch of frozen freelings typical of scandinavian black metallers.
Behind the switches and amps there are two further geniuses: FREDRIK FALK, who also fought the obscure battles side by side with NATTEFROST on the ‘KREFT’ EP took care of the mixing, while the mastering was superbly crafted by DANIEL VRANGSINN of CARPATHIAN FOREST, VRANGSINN, etc.
Both provided PLAAG with the spot on sound to make this band sounding the way it should meant to be, the way the artist had in mind. These for dark damned souls are looking forward to work together in the the future, because what they can spawn is absolutely infernal.
