Zuriaake - 瘏ン / Afterimage of Autumn



Welcome back, i have some free time at the moment, so i thought it would be wise to take advantage of it and play some new stuffs! so off we go, with Zuriaake which comes from China and more precisely, Taiwan! =D and where to start...well if you think BM is just going in circle, just listen to them, they'll be like a gust of fresh wind blowing in your face..and perhaps even blowing you away!^^ the sound is pretty tight and the production is good, without losing the raw side of things...the drumming is really interesting in my opinion, as it's far away from that speedy punk rhythm that is too often heard ...well i dont want to describe that album too much... but if you like cold/crude black metal, in the line of Burzum/ Satanic Warmaster, but with some pastoral ambiances like in Arkanum and catchy epic atmospheres in the vein of Nokturnal Mortum...lend an ear to that one...it might get chopped and hopefully it'll be minced and diced! ah ah! Taiwan's power grabbed me by the balls once more! \m/

Probot - Probot 2004



If you like metal...well that one is definitely needed in your collection. No need to introduce Dave Grohl i guess..who doens't know Nirvana or Foo Fighters?... well, on that one he managed the incredible feat to gather most of the major Metal figures from the late 80's/ early 90's together! obviously by doing so, you get a rather ecclectic outcome and in the end it sounds a bit like a compilation, which it actually is IMHO! However, i really like the result and the personality of each of the songs which really squares with what one would expect the guest to play/sing. Hope you enjoy! \m/

Some of you may like it raw, some may not...some may even fancy a cup of gore but with a different kind of taste....Well if you wonder what might be the future of BM, then Nachtmystium is likely to lay a few conspicious clues on the table for you! as you follow their footprints, along your way up the mountain!, you'll certainly pick up different elements idosyncratic (ouuuuhh!!) of the BM style ...and if you're lucky enough to mix them up in the correct way..cause there's no chemistry for dummies manual in that case i'm afraid!, then the outcome might be somewhat similar to the inner alchemy manisfesting itself from the catchy compound Nachtmystium created! psyched-out atmospheres entwined with sharp and cold riffing to which, like by the brush of an impressionist, a smidgen of epic dimension as been added...all this seems rather enticing uh?...well it is! ^^ so check that one out it's bloody...or bleedin' awesome! ...another couple of bottles for table 666! =P
