Old Man´s Child - "In Defiance Of Existence"

[Profano]

OLD MAN'S CHILD have completed the recording of their new album, In Defiance Of Existence (I have heard this album will be called "Ifidel"...), and are currently wrapping up the mastering. Look for the album to be released through Century Media Records in early 2003. In addition to performances by mastermind Galder (vocals, guitars/DIMMU BORGIR) and Nick Barker (drums/Dimmu Borgir, ex-CRADLE OF FILTH), DREAM EVIL guitarist Gus G. has contributed a few guest solos. I'm curious...

So which is it then?? I read on the site that "Infidel" was a working title, so does that mean "In Defiance Of Existence" is now the definitive title??

Nick Barker on drums to me sounds interesting. They recorded in Abyss again?? (*hopes not*)

to sad, because "Pagan Prosperity" is my OMC's fav.

BARKER!? for crying out loud...

With Barker and Galder working together, I'm seriously expecting this to sound like a DB album. Not that that's bad, but still. And I find nothing wrong with Barker, Sentience. I quite like his drumming on Puritanical so on and so forth.

 

[sentience_withers]

yeah....but I hate it... I think his cradle drumming was okay,maybe even his work on lock up but puritanical was terrible... It was boring as fuck... Hoglan kicks Barkers ass. Barker ruined Borgir.

bullshit!!! it was Scully

 

[sentience_withers]

hehehe... I agree with Eldzik.. I never liked that Scully... I stick to my comments. Barker did ruin Borgir. They were good before him. Previous drummers kept it real. Barker is fast. And thats all he is. He shows no technical skills whatsoever on Puritanical, even though he did in other projects. To me, drumming should be about more than seeing how fast you can go.

i don't listen Dimmu before "Puritanical", because i don't like "romantic doom/black", but i must say it's good album and Barker is also very good. later i heard previous Dimmu's cds (but still don't like) and Tjodalv is poor drummer. he isn't fast or technical and also he used many computer effects. i also saw him with Susperia and he was really poor anyway, i think Barker didn't ruin Dimmu, but add to their music more skills!

Yeah, me too. Although I almost love 'Spiritual Black Dimensions' as much as 'P.E.M', I think Barker propels Dimmu into the 21st century... Fucking good stuff!

That Barker isn´t a technical drummer... you´re fucking wrong. Watch the World Misantrophy and see Barker in action I´ll think you will change your opinion... I think Barker does an excellent job after Tjodalv. But Tjodalv is still the master !

I wasn't too happy about Revelation 666, so I am very skeptical about this release.

 

[Blodhemn]

I like Nick Barker, he's decent.

Oh my gods

This album is way better, than I had dared to anticipate... The sound is perfect... In fact; everything is perfect... I... Damn... I can´t explain it in my non-native-tongue, but I would say it´s the best since "In The Shades Of Life"!

Check it out if you like frenzy guitars, hyperblasting drums and good production in a completed blackmetal band...

All hail!

I agree...Awsome album..OMC is one of my favourites bands so I've been waiting a long time for that album....The only thing I don't like is Nick's trigging, but other than that it's an amazing album.. With Blood Red Throne and OMC, I think 2003 will be a good year for metal
