40 Years Ago: MERZBOW records OM Electrique (First Ever Recording)

Masami Akita recorded the very first MERZBOW sounds on this day in 1979. OM Electrique is the earliest MERZBOW recording but remained unreleased until 2000 when it was included as part of the Merzbox collection. I started playing around 1972, in a studio, with schoolmates from my junior...

33 Years Ago: TAPPI TIKARRASS release Miranda

It shows how things were operating at the time. We weren't really into marketing or anything, we were just doing it. Even though [the album release] was the night before Christmas, it didn't matter! It was still about having fun and doing whatever we wanted to do. The...

22 Years Ago: NAGELFAR release Hunengrab im Herbst

22 Years Ago: NAGELFAR release Hunengrab im Herbst

Meine persönliche Ansicht ist, daß Vergleiche mit diversen skandinavischen Bands (leider) nicht abgestritten werden können. Andererseits halte ich "Hünengrab im Herbst" für eines der bestproduziertesten und auch charismatisch intensivsten Black Metal Alben überhaupt. Mit ‚charismatisch intensiv‘ spiele ich nicht auf Originalität an, sondern auf die Intensität bzw. die...
