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...

Mexican cyber death metal! HARDWARE's only major release, the Souls Vortex EP, was recorded on this day in 1991 at PM Studios.Raw, obscure sound; some songs with prominent keyboard giving it a feeling close to what NOCTURNUS were doing around the same time. Not yer usual case of...
We weren't revolutionary. We were just perverts with a captive audience!

THE STALIN released their debut album on this day in 1981.
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...
We were extremely worried when Piggy was ill with cancer, it gave us a big shock to find that something like that could just come to the surface like that. We've become mote health conscious, we've grown closer together, personally and musically, and now after this record, which...
At that time, Fall of Because was the entire opposite of all the speed stuff happening. We'd do gigs with Napalm Death and Extreme Noise Terror. When we would play, Paul and I would face Justin with our backs to the crowd and play for ourselves. And everybody...
JOY DIVISION ("up until the recording date of this E.P. we were known as WARSAW") recorded their first EP for £400 at Pennine Sound Studios, Oldham on this day in 1977. I’ve got a little book full of lyrics and I just fit something in. I have a...
With MINOTAURI, the idea is more riff-based the hard way, ya know? Also, my vocals are nothing nice or beautiful. I like hard sounds and I think there`s no point to sound radio-friendly or nice when playing Doom Metal. A mix of HELLHAMMER, CELTIC FROST, DEATH ROW (PENTAGRAM),...
We were all really proud of that tape, and I think we captured something that struck a chord with a lot of people in the dutch death metal scene. It might have been the catchiness of the tunes, which in turn came from the bare and basic song...
Virgin released Sid Sings, a posthumous Sid Vicious solo record cash-in on this day in 1979. Danny Baker, in the NME, started his review with: If rock 'n' roll had any backbone it would close Virgin Records down. The majority of Sid Sings is made up of live...
The recording and mixing of VOIVOD's classic third album, Killing Technology, took place at Musiclab, (at the time, West) Berlin, over a couple of weeks. The album was completed on this day in 1986. Around this time engineer Harris Johns and his Musiclab was also being used by...

Organised and booked before John Peel passed away, SUNN O))) recorded the last of three posthumous Peel sessions, on this day in 2004. The session aired on the 21st with the programme hosted by Rob Da Bank.
ALTERNATIVE TV recorded their first of two John Peel sessions on this day in 1977 at Maida Vale 4. The session aired on Monday 12 December.
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...
This was for people who wanted to see what it was like when we were around. This is the only one, you're not going to see it again. Derby Crash That last show was our best ever. We played the best, and were the most comfortable, the crowd...
When I started with the band I was very young and I wanted to break the world. When I then reformed Death SS in 1988 I simply had the purpose to start a professional music career, which could grow artistically over the time. I was never interested in...
