You know, it’s somewhat confusing to notice that Finnish duo Oath do not release their newest creation via Patologian Laboratorio Recordings. The latter is a label run by Aki ‘Grim666’ Klemm, who is part of many projects and bands that release their stuff via that label especially – think Kalmankantaja, Lathspell, Grimirg, Order Of The White Hand and many more.
Art in its most virginal definition compiles more than lyrical, aural or visual creation. It’s the totality of artistic aspects that characterizes the deep essence of Art. When open-minded experimentalists join forces, the result can be quite global. Such an example is Common Eider, King Eider, an American collective that creates music especially, but books too, for example.
French act Horologium are active since 2004, and as from then on they released quite an impressive number of recordings.
I was hesitating – would I write a short essay on the ‘Eurasian’ current or not… But in order to comprehend the philosophy behind TSIDMZ’s concept, it would be a missed chance not to do so. So here it is. The Eurasian ideas, as being related to an anti-capitalistic conviction, were born almost a century ago, trying to focus once again on the human being as existing like an entity of flesh and spirit, rather than being a part of an economic, world-dominative and fake-democratic mechanical construction.
Peruvian act Psicorragia were formed in 1994 at a time when the South American (Death) Metal scene was enormously influential, inspirational, and interesting. After some changes in the line-up and a search for a direction to go, the band released a first demo, Otoño, in 1998. In 2001, the band was able to record a first full length album, La Pasión de lo Mortal, which was released via American Line Productions. An EP did follow in 2005 but then things went silent for quite a while.
Nothing You Do Will Ever Matter. Nothing. Ever. Well, I do not agree, because my review matters. …and Music (muSICK) matters.
Five and a half years after the debut Dawn Of A New World (I think it was the last release for defunct Black Metal label Warfront Productions), Dark Ravage, hailing from Vilnius, the capital city of Lithuania, did return with the sophomore full length, The Fall Of Inner Sanctum. It was the second release for Vilnius-based label Forgotten Path Records, released in an edition limited to 300 copies only on compact disc.
In order to make people comprehend their insignificant existence, Ville ‘v-KhaoZ’ Pallonen started this self-called project quite recently. This Finnish artist, formerly or currently also known from well-known outfits like Azaghal (!), Oath (in a very near future I will write and upload the review for their newest album, once again released via Immortal Frost Productions), Hiisi or Hin Onde, recorded this material during last year’s summer under a black sun.
Black Whispers are a project from Costa Rica, formed in 2013 by José ‘S.S’ Fonseca, nowadays acting as JF or J.F. After a very limited split with Noldor, José recorded + released his debut under the Black Whispers moniker (Negative Ways Of Life) in early 2014 (Depressive Illusions Productions) with assistance of session musician Diego ‘Lwl’ Sanchez.
