[Henrik Main]

Asskicking band, good to see that there are more fans out there besides fotmbm and myself!

 

[Hell Mike]

[circus_brimstone]

Not bad.

I've been listening to Faustcoven since it came out, btw.

Furthermore, grab this rough demo track (no vocals) of a song from the next album before the link expires (which should be really soon. It blows everything from this album out of the fucking water. I won the Faustcoven/Koldbrann split 7" in a contest today, can't wait to get it.

You speak the truth, more doomy and evil

So you've been creaming over anything put out by Barbarian Wrath for sometime now.

Not really, some of it is mediocre, some of it downright sucks.

Not really, some of it is mediocre, some of it downright sucks.

lots of it is great though

 

[skeptik]

Absolutely, some of them are incredible, like

Morrigan - Plague, Waste, and Death
Megiddo - The Devil And The Whore
Stiny Plamenu - Rany Sernym Kovem
Hail - Inheritance of Evilness (probably the best release from either NEP or BW)
Countess - Heilig Vuur
Anael - On Wings Of Mercury
Grand Belial's Key - Castrate The Redeemer (though that's a reissue of sorts)
Tearstained - Final Thoughts

I honestly find all of those albums to be truly remarkable, not to mention the other albums from said bands. The only albums that I don't care for from the label are Heretic - Devilworshipper and the new Warhorde - Satanic Lust. Everything else is at least worth owning for me (though I do own Heretic, since I bought it without sampling, but I would have to give it another listen before I was willing to trade it away).
