For those who are interested, Jon from Full Moon Productions confirms that he received the masters and layout for the new Velvet Cacoon album, Atropine, unlike the supposed other new album.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

WOOT.

And yeah Lyrinx is QUALITY...

 

[Matt]

The title is Melancholie² and I still need it.

currently listening to Coldworld's Melancholie, and so as of the first track, this seems like a pretty solid record. Bits of it remind me of Negura Bunget (clean vocals laid over harsh vocals)...ambient bits here and there. lovely so far.

ColdWorld fucking rules. Fantastic depressive style BM.

I was under the impression that VC was dead. Apparently, I was wrong!

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

While we're on the subject of depressive BM, everyone should check out the REALLY FUCKING GOOD new TotalSelfHatred album.

 

[sevag00]

Thanks for the rec.

 

[Alter]

So I finally checked out Rahu's new demo Ride of the Eight Black
Steeds. Really fucking good BM from Finland with a slight melodic flare, but strange melodies. The problem is how the fuck do I get info about this band? Not a single article, interview or review about them expect for a bare M-A page.

You should check out Nihilistic Purity by Lyrinx. It's right up your alley.

They were the first band I reviewed for TMO: http://www.metal-observer.com/articles.php?lid=1&sid=1&id=14380

You should tell someone at TMO to amend the review of the first Animus album. The reviewer says the band is American and says things like

ANIMUS is a pretty good example of a dark way of living a genre that is re-inventing itself especially from the States.

when Animus is in fact from Israel.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

lol how do you get that wrong.

I just finished listening to the song Yearning the Seeds of a New Dimension for the first time in a while and goddamn I love that song. In The woods... are just plain fucking awesome.

Np: In The Woods...:Heart of the Ages

 

[viewerfromnihil]

Semargl, just started listening to them and i must say, they kick ass. anyone else?

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Yes, they do I was really impressed that they sounded so good when I first heard them!

I've been listening to Heart of the Ages in the car and goddamn "Wotan's Return" kicks my ass everytime I hear it.

Faustcoven - Rising From Below The Earth is the best album ive heard all year wow. I couldn't wait til black goat shipped them to the US so i bit the bullet and ordered it for 23 USD. Totally worth it, i dare any band to try and top this album. Never a boring moment, the riffs holy shit, the solos, the lyrics everything is perfect. Buy this now.


edit; has anyone heard the new GBK split? Pretty good stuff, ordered it directly from GBK

 

[Omni]

To be honest, I'd be willing to buy that Faustcoven album if I could figure out where/how to order it.

Kind of a disappointing documentary. It was Gaahl-fellating and not much else.
