21 Years Ago: ULVER release Nattens madrigal

We are what our name uphold. Wolves.. During night we find a mental and to some extent also a physical (!) well-being that we most likely are never to find at daytime. The truth is simply that ever time the sun breaks through it has a detrimental effect...

37 Years Ago: IRON MAIDEN release Twilight Zone c/w Wrathchild

Here in Blighty Twilight Zone was a non-album single; a double-A side with "Wrathchild". We couldn't afford to pay for another video for 'Twilight Zone', so we did a double A-side, because we knew we were gonna be off touring a lot and, if by any chance they wanted us on...

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...

21 Years Ago: IMMORTAL release Blizzard Beasts

We managed to be different from our earlier albums also this time, and we changed the concept a bit, but not the style. It still sounds Immortal. We also wanted to develop ourselves continuously. Develop, but maintain and keep our own style. Theme is the usual, which I...

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...

Through wooded glades he wanders with dancing nymphs who foot it on some sheer cliff's edge, calling upon Pan, the shepherd-god, long-haired, unkempt. He has every snowy crest and the mountain peaks and rocky crests for his domain; hither and thither he goes through the close thickets, now...
