Any thoughts on Catamenia?

[JayKeeley]

I picked up one of their CD's (Eskhata) really cheap a few weeks back - bought it blind. Very obviously melodic black/viking metal from what I can make out, and I like it in a fun way - not much depth to it really, but it has its moments. In other words, it's growing on me.

Anyone else come across them - they have at least 5 albums out from what I can tell....

:Spin:

That is pretty pathetic. Anyway, what's in a name eh? what about the muzak?

Awesome thread though.

Edit: Who was the band that was supposed to tour the US with Catamenia a few years ago that when the tour went all fucked over we got really pissed because most of us like that band?

Edit2: Oh it was Ancient Rites. And I guess I was the only who was pissed. Oh well. They did end up coming last year and I fucking missed them because I'm a stubborn asshole. Awesome.

Chaosborn followed by Eternal Winter's Prophecy are the best albums, saw them with Demilich in May last year
