28 Years Ago: DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA release Expositionsprophylaxe

We are absolutely not satisfied with our releases so far. Most of all because of the sound. As for the new album "Expositionsprophylaxe" I must say that this is our best release so far and shows what DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA are all about. It could have been better soundwise,...

22 Years Ago: ANATHEMA and MY DYING BRIDE live in Krakow

It has been fantastic for us with all the success. We have been hugely successful on mainland Europe but not too well in England. They don't like us much over there. It is a shame that we aren't popular in our home country, but it is common with...

24 Years Ago: SACRAMENTUM record Finis Malorum

When we started it was just because we wanted to make extreme music, violent music. We had no ambitions whatsoever. Then thing started to happen. A lot of people liked the stuff we made. So we became more serious and after we had recorded the MCD "Finis Malorum"...

30 Years Ago: DARKTHRONE release Land of Frost

Yes this tape is very different from our current style, and no, I don't consider it part of Darkthrone!!! That kind of goes for "Thulcandra" too, but we spread it in over 200 copies, so I guess (sadly) that it is part of our history which many will...

28 Years Ago: EXTREME NOISE TERROR record their third Peel session

ENT were amazing. So were their fans. Any track more than 20 seconds long was greeted with derisive cries of "too long, too slow" or "fucking prog-rockers" from the faithful, most of whom looked as though they had but recently risen from shallow graves alongside the A12, the...
