I have tried to combine my way of playing to get the most darkness out of the riffs. It will contain more and more of the old spirit. The old spirit of Black Metal will be more present than in some years for us you know. Nocturno Culto...

I am satisfied [with Aske] yeah, but it was the second full length album that supposed to be out by now, I guess D.S.P. did not understand that in time. The second LP is recorded in April 1992 and it's getting rather old, it'll be out in September...
The new songs differ from the ones on Grom. They are surely more mature in each way. You'll see, we've developed as musicians, and it's audible on our new record. It's full of extreme emotions. The sound is also much better than on our previous release. There may...
"Exterminate", our second album, was released at the end of February (1998), I'm not sure when the Aussie release will occur. Expect the album to be everything you know about Angelcorpse only much more obsessive and ripping than ever before. This new album has a lot more blasting...
SATANIC WARMASTER released their second album, Opferblut ("Sacrificial blood"), on this day in 2003 through No Colours. The debute album convinced No Colours Records to a degree they offered a contract. Flattered by the possibility to become one in the lineage of Dimmu Borgir, Graveland etc. I agreed...
First of all, black metal lies in the intellect, not in the tempo. We play fast as we find it most satisfying that way, not for any other reason. No band gets to be a pure black metal act just by playing fast, nor by playing slow. Real...
'The Return of the northern moon' is our first real stuff, it's only a proclaim of Behemoth's acts. Our newest stuff is more into pure evil black metal. 'True horned sodomy', our next demo, will be recorded in pro-studio and it will contain seven trax of pure unholiness....
Our music is Power Metal, Venom Metal, Black Metal not Heavy Metal cos that's for the chicks. Venom interview, Kerrang!, 1982 VENOM released their iconic second album, Black Metal, on this day in 1982 through Neat. Satan is power and Venom is power so we write about Satan....
Strong, dark atmospheres, coldness, eeriness - you can expect "Volcano" to invoke this in you. This album is mostly about powerful and quite straightforward Black Metal, with some Thrash and Hardrock elements thrown in. Don't bother so much with how it eventually differs from the other albums or...
Balder's Death is meant to stimulate mortal's ability to think beyond the normally accepted 'truths', to make them think for themselves. Dreams change nothing. Thoughts change nothing either, but perhaps the next album will stimulate mortal's will to act? We need no more dreams. We need no more...
SHINING III was basically the album where we truly reached where we were aiming, both musically as well as lyrically...

SHINING released their third album on this day in 2002 through Avantgarde.
'N crugu bradului opens and closes a complete and expressive cycle, a unitary vision melting mythological ambient, psychedelic and Transilvanian feeling into a complex layered musical and ideological structure. Sought original musical and lyrical structures, a deep personal emotional approach, make the album not just a cyclic dream...
De Principii Evangelikum is another stone to the edifice, yet not the final one, just taking part of those pillars, making sure the schrei X kathedral is still standing and holding the void. MkM / Antaeus interview, Darkened Zine, 2002 ANTAEUS released their second album on this day...
All of these changes through the years are important for us, but playing what we play now is very important. We have molded our music. When we started off we were very young; we played black metal and we thought it was so cool. It was. The second...
KAMPFAR released their debut album, Mellom skogkledde aaser, on this day in 1997 through Malicious Records. ...as for that album [cover artwork] the story is that a French guy did the cover and he mixed it up a bit, and just found a picture that he thought fit...
Originally available on tape, NOKTURNAL MORTUM released their debut album - Goat Horns - on this day in 1997 through Polish label Morbid Noizz. It was released on CD in March the next year by American label The End Records (now part of BMG) and Nuclear Blast.
As a whole, it was received well. Of course some said the sound was a bit poor, but that I don't care about, I like raw!! It's a demo, do they expect CD quality production?? The only complaints were on the vocals being too screamy, but at the...
We spread a seriouse point of view about satanism and that we are the only one. Also different aspects seen through the eyes of a demon. Also we spread our own feelings through the music and who we are. What we stand for and what to be destroyed....
