Dead Can Dance tribute

[Strangelight]

I dunno if this has been posted before *senile* but anyway, we're recording at track at the end of the month for the upcoming Dead Can Dance tribute album on Black Lotus Records. We're gonna do a version of 'Black Sun'. Again we'll be recording in Sun Studios with Stefano Soffia, as we did with Lights Out.
Other bands confirmed are The Gathering, Ulver, Dan Lilker, Black Tape For A Blue Girl and more like.
So buy it when it comes out and that eh?

What the hell is Dan Lilker doing on the release?

 

[insidethefall]

Is there a page mentioning all of the bands and the songs they cover?

 

[Strangelight]

Try www.black-lotus-recs.com

As far as I know Dan Lilker is doing 'Cantara', and Ulver doing 'In the kingdom of the blind the one-eyed are kings'

 

[sol83]

Yeah some good tracks but its us doing it so I guess its got to suit us eh? I cant really do Lisa Gerrards vocals like
Black Sun suits us down to the ground.

yep, but like those brendan tracks, say, 'anywhere out of the world' would suit mick's voice. also it has some doom parts in it.

I reckon that MDB could have done a good version of that one, similar sounds to the Turn Loose The Swans era. I never thought of doing any of them though. It was Black Sun or Severance like, the obvious ones for us.

black sun is ok, maybe except this crappy drumming. idea is fine, but it sounds shit on the original.

'how fortunate the man with none' would be interesting to cover, i hoped rygg would remake this.

anyways, about other artists i heard that the gathering will submit 'in power we entrust, the love advocated', that was already a bside on one of their singles.
noone should mess with lisa tracks, especially somebody with as cheesy name as lilker. wtf is he anyway?

any infos on the release date of that tribute?

 

[Strangelight]

I think someone from Empyrium is doing 'How Fortunate The Man With None'. Your wan from (ex)Theatre Of Tragedy is doing 'Summoning of the Muse' with some project.

I think it'll be out early next year. Not sure of the date like.

Andreas from Black Lotus had told me about this tribute and I just can't wait until it's out!!! I'm pretty sure it'll be awesome! Amazing artists covering songs of a top band! So, does anyone here know if covers of "The Host Of Seraphim" or "Enigma Of The Absolute" will be included in the cd?
