30 Years Ago: BURZUM release Aske

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...

25 Years Ago: BEHEMOTH release Pandemonic Incantations

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...

25 Years Ago: ANGELCORPSE release Exterminate

"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...

25 Years Ago: SETHERIAL release Lords of the Nightrealm

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...

20 Years Ago: SATYRICON release Volcano

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...

25 Years Ago: BURZUM release Daudi Baldrs

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...

...we don't want to be just one style. If you see the 3 tracks on "Dark..." are all different!! "Foetus Noose" is brutal death metal, "Forged in Fire" is a heavy metal cover version song (by ANVIL - gods!!!) and "Dark Is The Season" is a rumbling doom-laden...

20 Years Ago: NEGURA BUNGET release n crugu bradului

'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.
