    Bands similar to CoB?

    I kinda feel bad for digging that post up years after it's been posted but I'm flattered that you recommend my stuff. (I'm the dude behind Nahtram. I'm a long time member of the Andy Sneap board here on ultimatemetal. I'm not really active anymore here but I occasionally browse the other boards...

    How are you promoting your Band or Project in 2018

    Yes, I'm gonna try that too. Just have to come up with stuff to post :D I guess this method yould be more effective on instagram than on facebook for example? Because on facebook most likely only the people that already follow you will see it? Regarding online radio stations: I haven't tried...

    How are you promoting your Band or Project in 2018

    I recently did the very same (released my solo instrumental project). It's very hard these days promoting your stuff even though there are tons of possibilities due to social media etc. The main problem is to be seen in the first place because there are so many bands. What in my case helped...

    Nahtram - Instrumental Melodic Metal

    Sure: Guitars are mostly my Ibanez JCustom and my Evertune equipped Skervesen Raptor, both with Bareknuckle Aftermaths. I used the X30 Model from the TSE X50 suite as my main amp model both for rhythms and leads (but with different settings). Impulses are a combination of two, I can't remember...

    Nahtram - Instrumental Melodic Metal

    Hey all I finally managed to release the debut album of my instrumental metal project "Nahtram" last week. It's a one-man-band basically and I did almost everything on my own but I had the pleasure to get Ermz on the boat for mastering! You can listen to the whole album on bandcamp or youtube...

    What's happening to extreme metal vocalists???

    I'm absolutely with you. But to be honest, I'm not even up to date regarding the current stuff. It just bores me to death so I stay away from it.

    Wintersun New Album and Crowdfunding

    Somebody was kind enough to put the samples from their documentary videos together: It sounds really great in my opinion.

    Wintersun New Album and Crowdfunding

    I'm just gonna put my thoughts on this here, or how I understood all the things: I understood it the way that he never felt really comfortable doing guitars and vocals both live. Also I think he had/have back problems and thinks maybe this gets better if he has the freedom to move on stage...

    Wintersun New Album and Crowdfunding

    Dunno, I thought the reasons for not playing guitar live anymore (still playing guitar in the studio) were understandable.

    Wintersun New Album and Crowdfunding

    Put on hold until they have the resources to finish it. Forest Seasons was an easier album to make so they finished this first. I guess also to satisfy Nuclear Blast regarding their contract.
