AVATARIUM To Release 'Hurricanes And Halos' Album In May

Even though I didn't like their last album as much as their debut, which is still one of my overall favourite albums of the past 10 years, this is one of the (few) releases of 2017 I'm looking forward to.

Excited for these ones too.

Look at this fucking artwork though:

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

the Holocausto artwork looks like some amateur hour shit, but those other two are REALLY good pieces.

 

[CiG]

That's the whole point. They're not exactly a neo-classical tech band. Looks perfectly in sync with their debut artwork.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

oh shit, i didnt know only "neo-classical tech bands" have proper artwork. Looks like a kid drew that shit out.

Do you like this one too?

 

[Slayed Necros]

Damn, this new Holocausto sounds great. It's like the last 30 years and that string of bullshit in the late 80s/early 90s never happened.

I'm stoked that Venenum has finally followed up on their 2011 demo which is one of my favourite death metal recordings of the last decade. I'm on my second listen of Cold Threat in a row and I'm convinced. This is good stuff. I expected it to be wildly different after seeing some opinions over at NWN but this is noticeably the same band. Will buy for sure.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

"neoclassical tech band" artwork ...

 

[CiG]

This sucks. So does that Mortillery cover art.

Rest rule though. And I don't really think that Holocausto art is as bad as you're making it out to be, especially if you're comparing it to that Mortillery garbage.

The Holocausto art was done by Barney fucking Fried mate.

Looks perfectly in sync with their debut artwork.

Conveniently ignoring this part of my comment?

 

[Slayed Necros]

That Holocausto is easily my favourite artwork on this page.

 

[CiG]

That Holocausto is easily my favourite artwork on this page.

Same!

Barney Fried totally rules. He's done some of my favourites. Lure of the Occult, Outcast, Traitors' Gate, Smouldering Sinners. He also did Tarot's The Warrior's Spell art but I'm not a huge fan of that. Bit too colourful or fruity or something for me.

 

[EspaDa]

New Immolation out today. I'm gonna listen the shit out of it.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Same!

Barney Fried totally rules. He's done some of my favourites. Lure of the Occult, Outcast, Traitors' Gate, Smouldering Sinners. He also did Tarot's The Warrior's Spell art but I'm not a huge fan of that. Bit too colourful or fruity or something for me.

Yeah I was just checking out his other work. Shackles - Traitors' Gate art rules hard. Good album too.

 

[CiG]

Yeah I was just checking out his other work. Shackles - Traitors' Gate art rules hard. Good album too.

Yeah killer album. Really cool mixture of so many styles. Distinctly Australian sounding if you ask me.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

The Holocausto art was done by Barney fucking Fried mate.

Am i supposed to know who that is?

Conveniently ignoring this part of my comment?

What is that supposed to prove? That the artwork on the first album is anything more than utter garbage? New one you posted looks like a masterpiece compared to it.

So you praise trash like that? But the Incurso art sucks? sorry but i dont think i cant take your opinions on artwork seriously anymore.

Mortillery cover sucks big time, but i was expecting it to be right up your alley since you seem to have a particular taste for shitty album covers. But the band isn't bad ...

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

That Holocausto is easily my favourite artwork on this page.

lool, why am i not surprised?

 

[Slayed Necros]

I like art that fits the music. I also have a particular penchant for crude, ugly, zero-fucks-given heavy metal artwork. But sure, keep pretending you know better.

 

[TechnicalBarbarity]

best artwork on this page is In Hatred's Flame. Followed by Incurso and the two other albums that cassette posted.

I also have a penchant for ugly artwork.

Yes, we know.
