One heart we are, one essence we are, the witches’ spirit we share… Let’s walk the Diabolical Path…

Memphis - Garish - Mitya DHS - aka Dekonstruktor - did create some mind-twisting yet satisfying stuff in the past (amongst which the split with Megalith Levitation). In order to celebrate their tenth anniversary under this specific name (they were active as The Moon Mistress before), the trio recorded some new / renewed material at the Korean Room, Red Eyes Studios over a period of 2021 and 2022; produced and mixed by the band itself as well.

ashes to ashes, dust to dust…

As mentioned in previous reviews, Concreteweb is a channel to promote and support (anti-commercial) Music that dwells in spheres of Aural Underground Art. Sonic Supremacy for the Elite, you see… It is not a page to discuss political, ideological, religious, societal or ethic subjects. We all know that our planet is sick – ruined by the human kind – and this trespasses questions about good and evil, or about tolerance versus extremist opinions of any scope. This said…

One-man project Onasander is an outfit by Italian musician Maurizio Landini, who’s active under the moniker Les Anges Morts as well. As Onasander, Maurizio did record and release some collaborations via Winter-Light (with e.g. Kloob and Ashtoreth), and he was part as well on some of Cryo Chamber’s Cryo Chamber Collaboration epics, amongst other material.

Because I am such an amazing, sympathetic, vivid, bright, virile, smart, professional, handsome and, above all, modest and humble reviewer (why are you sardonically grimacing?), I have the chance to meet some very sympathetic and kind musicians from all over our beautiful yet rotting globe. An example is Lawrence K., the guy behind the Dark Ambient / Dungeon Synth outfit Idylls Of The Last King. With pleasure and dedication, I wrote down my humble thoughts on some of the former releases.

The über-productive outfit with the ingeniously developed name Crazygoji, hailing from Illinois, US, did originally release Times New Romantic in early 2024; more specific, it did see the stroboscopic light on February 2^nd in both self-release as well via New Zealand-based label Lilypad Records.

The Centipede Abyss is a strongly upcoming community for Extreme (Metal) Music acts with an outsider-thinking attitude. Several musicians share different collaborative acts, showing the inherent and strong connectedness in between these same-minded (or is it: lunatic-minded) human beings.

Those who do follow the story of the Synthetic King and the Human Emperor: here is a next chapter within this exciting story. After the belief, or hope, to choose Utryn as his suitable successor, at a period of relative quietness and peace, Utryn suddenly shows up at the Emperor celestial palace. Both rulers discuss a future series of events that might turn the balance of power towards one of both. Conditions are discussed and soon battles and combats will be organized. What will be the outcome. Will Utryn, the Zealous Killer, survive and become the Vrozlydian Emperor’s successor?

The outfit Nordein is a solo-project by some Jørn Øyhus aka Nord, whom you might know as well from e.g. Nordjevel, Byrdi, Tvangeste, Varde, Liktjern or Fatal Impact (amongst others?).

Finally, after four and a half years…

I will keep my introduction short and concise, and I’d like to refer to one of the other reviews I did in the past for Ars Veneficium, one of the leading Belgian bands within the current Black Metal scene. Links: see below.
