Infamous industrial Death Metal act THE PROJECT HATE MCMXCIX just announced the title of their upcoming seventh album, scheduled for a February 14th (22nd in the US), 2011 release: “Bleeding The New Apocalypse (Cum Victriciis In Manibus Armis)”. “’Bleeding The New Apocalypse (Cum Victriciis In Manibus Armis)’. There you go, the title of the finest work of our career so far”, Lord K. Philipson comments. “The new album. The title itself has a deeper meaning to us for natural reasons. This is the new era of The Project Hate MCMXCIX. My dream team is finally gathered when Ruby (vocals) and Tobben (drums) joined me and Jörgen, and together we have created what is the perfect vision of how I always wanted us to sound. We are there now. This is perfection. There's not a single thing left to chance on this album and when the time comes you will notice exactly that. For now you can just taste the sulphur, the diabolical essence and the wrath that this title promises. And when the album is unleashed you better be prepared - for the new Apocalypse. It is not pretty in any way, shape or form.” The Swedes’ six song, 60+ minute album has been mixed and mastered by Dan Swanö.

Atmospheric doomsters AVA INFERI just finished completing their new album! The Portuguese’s / Norwegian’s fourth opus is entitled “Onyx” and will be released on February 14th (22nd in the US), 2011. Guitarist and band leader Rune Eriksen made the following statement about “Onyx”: “The Tree of Life has got to be learnt by heart; you must know it backwards, forwards, sideways, and upside down; it must become the automatic background of all your thinking. You must keep on hanging everything that comes your way upon its proper bough. “....and so became ONYX. “These words of wisdom I borrowed for a moment just to emphazise the importance of evolving to become who you essentially are. How necessary and rewarding it is to breathe the air of experience, to gratefully accept the opportunities granted and to feed on lifes treasures and dreams. For it is through our life experiences and the knowledge attained we are able to develop and define our music and musicality. This I feel strongly about. “There is no easy pointing fingers and defining this band of ours, and I really do enjoy that fact. It’s amusing and quite liberating to be between a few of those "chairs" that have been defined by the masses of journalists, fans and followers of music all over. Some have defined us as Gothic Doom, sure we have those aspects, but I wouldnt state that it ends there. No, on the contrary Watson, it most certainly continues. Since the very first "Burdens" we have been named and linked to several styles and bands, although the comparisons have differed slightly from album to album, there has always been graphic and colourful ways of attempting to describe us. Even during this period of mixing and mastering I received many diverse compliments and equatives from the one and only Mr. Dan Swanö, (which himself has a long list of great merrits to be counted). Some of the written words he threw at me consisted of "sounds like some Tim Burton-esque Dark/Doom Metal" and my favorite, which was aimed at one of our new songs; "I got the feel of Bay Laurel crossfaded with ‘Power Windows’ era Rush and something unique....damn great!!". I admit I had no instant idea what he was talking about being shamely unfamiliar with most of the works from mentioned bands... However, and might I add once again, it is proven somewhat clear that music and its expression can speak louder than these genres and borders and that a given categorization can be a preconceived token of repetition to an open mind or simply an easy presumption for the "not knowers". There should definetely be no rules in art, no limitations and no foregone conclusion. Just allow it to unfold and manifest. Let it become, let it be! “The ONYX stone has had diverse meaning over the ages. The most folkloric or saga-friendly might be the one that features a sleeping Venus, telling the tale of a crooked cupid cutting her fingernails, leaving them scattered on the ground. And obviously, as in the design of the Gods, they were transformed to stone and known on earth as ONYX. Maybe not exactly what we had in mind, however an amusing and inspiring tale. “No, we aimed for the more metaphysical properties of this peculiar stone, which for us would include such as increasing happiness, intuition and developing ones insticts. It’s supposedly a strength giving stone as well, not only protecting from "evil" but also meaning good for athletes and for people under mental pressure and stress. The bad side, if that can be stated, are the vividly dark dreams and also foretellings of the future. Not for the faint hearted then I sense...Mostly I suspect these theories comes from conspiring ancient lores, as it was thought that inside the actual ONYX stone there was a demon imprisoned. This demon was awakened by night and spread terror and nightmares to the ones within reach, such as the bearers of the stone. Tales from the old world it just as well might be... Well, enough mythology and folklore lessons for now. However, I can reveal that these "attributes" are all a part of the main topics in this album, both concerning the lyrical side of things and also as a part of the influence brought forward into the music. All to a certain extent of course, but still, very much so. “Truth be told, nothing really surprises me anymore, and I’m sure that many of us have been going through some hard and demanding phases in our lives, leaving an unmistakable item of charm in the sack of The Fool. It’s all beautiful though, as these experiences we can bring along and forge into some sort of poetry or a subject of resonance, as this album you soon are about to hear. It has its pain, it has its wonders, it has its beauty and its darkness, and it definetely has its own nerve. We are once again happy, and perhaps even more so this time (as I believe that the more conscious one gets, the more one is actually allowed to feel the depths of completion and satisfaction granted from persistent work). And now, seeing the album has taken its form and showcased its will to breathe, I can only hope its content and purpose will continue to amaze people the same way it did to me. “ONYX is real, and it is definetely the sound of profound honesty, development and adventures, for good and for bad. But then again, those words could possibly be the essence of most albums, me thinks...To end it off, I would like to thank Carmen and myself, the main creators, for sticking through this together and for not giving up one ounce of faith in this piece of work. There are stars out there, waiting to be found. Blessed be!” "The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die." A.C “Onyx” will be released as round-corner digipak edition strictly limited to the first pressing.

Virginia's epic doom metal unit WHILE HEAVEN WEPT has inked a deal with Nuclear Blast Records. The band is currently in the studio recording its new album, "Fear of Infinity", for an April 2011 release. The group is also mapping out tour plans and has already confirmed several festival appearances.

Nego, nisam video da puno spominjete Hell Militia - Last Station On The Road To Death? Meni to beše jako dobar album.

U Alcest-u Niege komponuje i svira sve živo, sem onog što lupa bubnjeve tako da je to u osnovi njegov bend. A Absurd je pravi bend, trenutno su tu Mobus koji peva i svira bas i onaj lik na gitari, zaboravih mu ime. A zna se koji su ljudi osnovali taj bend, kad, i ko je sve prošao kroz njega, istorija tog benda je dobro poznata.

Due to the unique and exciting nature of these events we will be issuing a small, limited number of VIP packages at all seven concerts.

Please remember there are a very limited number of these highly sought after tickets available so we urge you to buy early to avoid disappointment. The bands front man Nick Holmes had this to say: “It’s going to be amazing to play the Draconian Times shows again, DT was a huge success for the band; it seemed to be exactly the right album to do at the right time and to a certain degree was definitely the end of a chapter for the band.We always considered the album to be a ‘better’ version of its predecessor "Icon" and using Simon Effemy again for the third time, I think we were all on the same hymn sheet and knew exactly what we wanted and what the album should sound like. We had done a pretty extensive touring schedule for the Icon album before it, and there was already a decent buzz around about the band, In the 1990s without the Internet you could only really gauge how things were going once you walked onto the stage and saw how the crowd responded to songs! But after the DT album was released the response was phenomenal. Knowing that DT is still considered by many as being among their favourite albums of all time fills me with great pride, and I'm very grateful to have been part of it all and now having the chance to be here again playing it in its entirety is phenomenal. We are all very excited and can’t wait to do the shows live, I really hope we see you all there and you have as much fun as us!" The tour dates for Draconian Times are as follows: MARCH: 18th – FUZZ – ATHENS, GREECE 19th – FUZZ – ATHENS, GREECE 20th – PRINCIPAL – THESSALONIKI, GREECE 29TH – TIVOLI – UTRECHT, HOLLAND 30TH – BATACLAN – PARIS, FRANCE 31ST – ZECHE – BOCHUM, GERMANY APRIL: 1ST – THE FORUM – LONDON, UK

Čoveče, hteli smo da ti kažemo da je u Alcest-u jedan čovek a u Absurd-u više njih.

Album

@Lu: Ali je Absurd, zato, legenda.

Ti si čovek koji ima linkove za sve. Živ bio.

E to već ne bih znao.

Ja sad otkrio onaj ozloglašeni "Watermark!!!" folder na kompu pa videh da sam pored njih zaboravio i Borknagar i Noctiferiu.

Jebote, pa svi smo koliko vidim zaboravili jedan od albuma godine - Audrey fuckin' Horne.

Zapravo, moj redhead fetish vuče korene od detinjstva i viđenja "Where the wild roses grow" spota, tako da si u pravu i više nego što misliš.

Nije loše ovo, a vidim i da im je pevačica redhead.

Ahaha, i ja sad skontah.

Čekaj, CoF i Dimmu su ti šit a Abigail Williams su ti kvalitet?

Majku mu, odmah ispod poslednjeg posta u temi imate ono "Search Topic" sranjce, zar je toliko teško ukucati ime benda u njega?

Jel' ima neko link za bonus pesme sa "Addicts"-a - "Macrocosmic" i remiks "Every last drop"?

Najs. Sve tri.

Danny Filth becomes a lord! Koji kralj.

Uh, taj Wolvhammer je odličan, skinuh kad je izašlo - ne sećam se nešto jesam li ga preporučivao ovuda, ali je super.

Ja bih pre rekao da im OL oduzimaju dosta vremena u okviru šoua kad krenu da sviraju "neverending" smaračine sa onog njihovog poslednjeg sranja. Inače, drugarica ih je gledala u Londonu, kaže da je uprkos svemu bilo kidanje. Gledah i intervju sa Joutsen-om iz Londona, kaže instrumenti za novi album već snimljeni sem klavijatura, on snima vokale u januaru valjda, priča opet po "Kalevali" i to po njenom glavnom liku, ko je voleo prošle albume neće biti razočaran... i tako.
