ZYKLON Call It Quits

[sevag00]

EMPEROR/ZYKLON guitarist Samoth has issued the following update:

"After taking an offical break over two years ago, it has now become the reality that Zyklon is no longer a functional band, and thus the decision is made to formaly split up the band, instead of just letting it decend into nothingness. As a final release from the band, Candlelight Records will later this year put out a boxset, entitled The Storm Manifesto, including all three full-length albums with various bonus material. Zyklon played its final show in Tokyo, Japan on September 28th, 2007.

All members of Zyklon are still active on various fronts. Samoth is currently in the studio working on the debut album for his new project, THE WRETCHED END. Destructhor is still touring with MORBID ANGEL, and is still planning to complete a new MYRKSKOG album with SECTHDAMON. Trym is mainly working in his tattoo shop, but is scheduled to appear in a new music project soon."

A really terrible news.

I quite liked these guys. World ov Worms is a sick record.

 

[-CC-]

Damn that's a shame.. they were one of the better blackened death acts

 

[Doomguy]

Sad indeed; they will be missed.

 

[ArneZ]

Too bad, outstanding band. All their album were highly enjoyable.

 

[Mort Divine]

no loss

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Except for the 5 people above you.

 

[Evil?]

Not sure I have ever heard a song from these guys.

 

[Episteme]

I liked a couple songs of Aeon, World Ov Worms was pretty average and Disintegrate was very meh.

 

[Krow]

This sucks.

 

[Srontgorrth]

World ov Worms was pretty damn good, but I wonder how Samoth's solo album will turn out.

 

[Hail The Wizard!]

Damn.

 

[A1a23]

CRAP

 

[Belligerent]

no loss

STFU already


World Ov Worms was a good album, never a huge fan of these guys but crappy news nonetheless.

 

[A Journeys End]

Grossly overrated band, I for one am happy about this news. Now maybe they can focus on real projects.

 

[Tonka Time]

World Ov Worms was great. The other albums were a good listen as well.
Never was a huge fan, but it sucks that they couldn't find anything new to do with the band.

 

[Eligos]

I like Zyklon more than I do Myrkskog, mostly because Secthdamon is as good a vocalist as he is a shitty drummer. So, ITT I am very disappoint.

 

[Jimmy... Dead.]

Not sure I have ever heard a song from these guys.

 

[waif]

I have Disintegrate and it has never done anything for me. Are their other albums more interesting?

World ov Worms was pretty damn good, but I wonder how Samoth's solo album will turn out.

I want to hear Samoth's solo material, I didn't know he had an album coming out, what kind of music is it supposed to be? Like Ihsahn's? I want to hear Samoth solo.
