An awesome band which fails (how many times in a row?) to find a decent vocalist.

Check out this band:
Tragos

Especially check out the vid they have on there.
(i think it's made from the same guy who made the Monochromatic Stains video, but i'm not sure)

edit: yes, it is made from the same guy, Achilleas Gatsopoulos.

are they serious? I will never understand Black Metal bands and their videos :Smug:

Elenium

Nicely complex and cute keyboards. Very good singer.

I like them very much, but then again i love lots of finnish bands like Swallow the Sun for example, too bad they are not "popular" and tour the world and i can't find the lyrics to some of their songs and i'm very curious read them

The latest Elenium-record has a delay in release, so it´s not out yet. You can find the lyrics of the previous one (For Giving For Getting) on darklyrics.com
The CD is at the moment available for a good price at The End Records, that´s where I just ordered mine, and because of the relation Dollar to Euro it´s an excellent price, even with shipping costs.

Well, the band can´t tour abroad without a recordcompany to back it up, or at least substantial sales from records if they would organize a small tour by themselves (or they just have to get money otherwise and pay their costs); same goes for many other newcomer bands. But Swallow The Sun did already tour in Europe, though. Up and coming bands are seldom able to tour Iron-Maiden-style right from start
Anyhow, they won´t get popular if you don´t contribute your share, by spreading the word, buying a few records, and flooding both guestbook and recordcompany-e-mail with wishes But you can_do something, so that´s better than just hoping, isn´t it?

I have no idea... But if they are, it's that much more fun for us!

Actually, and now i can see that i suck at composing sentences, i was talking about Swallow the Sun and me beeing unable to find some of Their lyrics Especially the lyrics from their album "The Morning Never Came" because as you can see at their official web site there are some songs from the album that have no lyrics (such as "Swallow" for example) and i searched the internet and i cant find them anywhere, yet im dying to read them.

 

[fireangel]

ah, well, that was difficult to see, I thought after the comma you went back to Elenium

Have you asked the band already in the guestbook or forum why they didn´t include the lyrics? Or maybe someone else asked it already and you could look it up?

 

[Cuthalion]

oh i read on some forum that some guy asked them and even sent them and e-mail but they just ignored him, and i also read that the lyrics are not on the album booklet either. Thats strange, whats the point of writing lyrics for a song with growling vocals if you dont give people the chance to read them, you might have as well just growled random words.

Same thing was with Follow the Reaper, when Laiho considered his "poetry" too weak or something, anyway - it didn't end up in the booklet either.

They are indeed quite a show these guys. Of what I heard, their sound is always crisp and intense and the arrangements are excellent (I own Turis Fratyr). However, they still have room for a lot of improvement. After a while the songs structures and atmospheres tend to get a bit redundant.

Ok, I want you to check out Gorod, an awesome French technical death metal band. If you like what you see and hear, order their new album Leading Vision - its a masterpiece.

And here a classic (classical too, maybe) solo from Necrophagist. Check them out as well!

 

[King Chaos]

Necrophagist are playing down my way soon... I'll be making sure to catch them. They are rather legendary.

 

[marduk1507]

Yeah, the tour stops here on Feb 19, so Im having early Xmas this year!

 

[Kovenant84]

Doing a quick search, seems I never helped promote my friend. It's not metal, more of a pop/rock kind of thing, but it's rather good, I think.

And you can't really go wrong with surprise acoustic renditions of "Sexy Back".

DEAD BY APRIL

Dead by April: Ridiculously promising brand new band from sweden. Sounds like Dark Tranquillity, In Flames and Into Eternity.

they are unsigned... Only 6 months in the making, and they have three fantastic tracks on their myspace page already. these guys have so much commercial potential it's untrue.
