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...
RUNNING WILD released their seventh album, Pile of Skulls, on this day in 1992. I think it was back in ninety one when I started reading books about the UFO phenomenon and other phenomenons. ...["Sinister Eyes"] was the first time I had written about that, because I was...
During the Four of a Kind and Thrash Zone years, we were doing pretty good. We reached a certain point where we weren't getting any higher and lower, so for Definition, we decided to open for a lot of bands - like Ice-T & Body Count and Testament....
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...
...the third album will be even more different than before. People will trip on that too because everything is different with whatever phase we're in.The songs are way different, but not like a different style. Certainly not more mellow or anything like that. If anything, its way more...
SHINING III was basically the album where we truly reached where we were aiming, both musically as well as lyrically...
Kvarforth / Shining interview, Carpathian Wolves Legion, 2005
SHINING released their third album on this day in 2002 through Avantgarde.
SORROW released their debut album, Hatred and Disgust, on this day in 1992 through Roadrunner. In '88 we started as a thrash band, we were totally into Slayer but that didn't do much for us in '89 so we decided to get more extreme and circulated our tape through...
'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...
WARLOCK released their fourth and final album on this day in 1987. When [the "All We Are" video] came out, the first time I saw it on Headbangers Ball. I was a big KISS fan. I'm STILL a big KISS fan, and Paul [Stanley] and Gene [Simmons] were...
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY live on this day in 1987 in St Louis, Missouri.
Corrosion of Conformity - St Louis Flyer, 28 September 1987
This album isn’t going to be quite as raw and heavy as the first three. We’re getting more into melody.
Ozzy Osbourne / Black Sabbath interview, 1972
BLACK SABBATH released their fourth album, Vol. 4, on this day in 1972 through Vertigo.
The third date of seven on the Marching Towards Christian Extermination European mini-tour which travelled through Holland, Belgium, Germany and Austria.
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...
...I haven't even talked to the guys about this, what this album sounds like. I've been sitting here trying to think about what to say. The best thing I can come up with is that it's kinda like a mixture between the first and second album but it's...
Part of the first generation of thrash mtal bands from Rio de Janeiro, METRALION, completed recording their debut album, Quo Vadis, on this day in 1987 at Master Estudio.
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...
