Vektor should be coming out with a new album this year, i think they'r recording right now ... cant fucking wait.

Awesome.

 

[The Bringer]

I meant the Korpiklaani album, though the Omnium Gatherum album is pretty great too.

Also the new Evergrey is quite decent. Nothing spectacular.

Damn... I was really hoping you were talking about Omnium Gatherum because the Korpiklaani album is quite possibly even more boring than the last. Such a shame because I used to look so forward to every new album from them. They were all so good up till Karkelo. Now they are running low on fuel in my books.

The new DevilDriver is much better than Pray for Villains but still not as good as TLKW. Covering a 16 Horsepower song is pretty random. Evergrey is decent but obviously with new members the band is kind of still in direction finding mode.

Great news indeed. I also want to check the new Deicide and Vreid.

I wish it was april...


Irish dark metal masters PRIMORDIAL have finished recording their seventh studio album, "Redemption At The Puritan's Hand", with producer Chris Fielding (NAPALM DEATH, ELECTRIC WIZARD) for an April 26 release (three days earlier in Europe) via Metal Blade Records.

Commented PRIMORDIAL vocalist Alan "Nemtheanga" Averill: "If I had to sum this album up, I would say this is the 'death' album. Plain and simple.

"There isn't exactly a whole concept but many of the themes deal with mortality, how we deal with it. The spiritual structures we place around us to make sense of it. Sex, death, procreation and god. As we get older our relationship to our lives changes, the realization you will not live forever, the grand plan you hoped to uncover never materializes, food for worms and nothing more.

"We are animals, beasts and making peace with that beast might be your life's work but more often than not he is never tamed.

"Once a wolf always a wolf.

"We all seek redemption in one way or another, from lies or from truth. Those of us who are godless or faithless often envy the man of faith for his life seems to have an extra purpose, despite the fact that logic, pragmatism, science and realism should crush any sign of faith, we still persist in lying to ourselves. Perhaps the alternative is too much to bear. So the themes of religion, mortality and death occur over and over again, along with continuing themes of alienation, martyrdom, sacrifice, violence and retribution. Occasionally, very occasionally a chink of light breaks through.

"This is our seventh album, you know what to expect, passion, intensity, commitment and sheer bloody mindedness. Don't expect fantasy or escapism. No remorse, no regret."

New Protest The Hero leaked Saturday. Pretty good, but I don't think it'll get as many listens from me as Fortress or Kezia.

 

[Wolves83]

For myself, I'm looking forward to actually listenin to the new Enslaved album.

 

[The Emptier]

uhhh 2010?

 

[Onder]

New Pestilence on it's way too.

 

[The Butt]

Can't wait for the new Burzum, new COB, new Vintersorg, and new Obscura.

 

[JontRevolting]

^^ Awesome news about Pestilence,for those that are interested there's a new Countess album out since feb 16th.

 

[Necroraven]

The only albums I'm really looking forward to, are Thulcandra, Repugnant and Sacrilegious Impalement. The new Obscura is probably going to be good too.

 

[Pyro Stick]

Just read in terrorizer that Burzum is coming out with compilations of rerecorded versions of songs from Det Som Engang Var, Hvis Lyset Tar Oss and Filosofem.
