30 Years Ago: UNCANNY record Nyktalgia demo

I think it'll be available in August sometime, because the place where we're gonna copy the demos has closed for the summer so we just have to wait. We will also have one track on some compilation tapes but I don't know when they're going to be released....

35 Years Ago: DEATHWISH release At the Edge of Damnation

A lot of the songs on "Damnation" were written ages ago - going back to the bands early days - so we don't think the METALLICA comparisons are justified. Among us we have influences across the whole range of HM from LED ZEPPELIN and BLACK SABBATH to SLAYER...

40 Years Ago: VICE SQUAD record their second Peel session

I thought it was a bit strange that Peel was so keen on our track, because there were much more established and capable bands on the record, like Glaxo Babies, Joe Public and The X-Certs. I spoke to John for the first time, a few years ago, pointing...

25 Years Ago: RAGNAROK release Arising Realm

We spread a seriouse point of view about satanism and that we are the only one. Also different aspects seen through the eyes of a demon. Also we spread our own feelings through the music and who we are. What we stand for and what to be destroyed....

20 Years Ago: MORRIGAN release Enter the Sea of Flames

After ending MAYHEMIC TRUTH in 2000, Beliar and Balor formed the equally epic MORRIGAN. Morrigan was born in summer 2000. We never considered to call the band MAYHEMIC TRUTH, because after the relase of "In Memoriam" this would be a joke... Balor / Morrigan interview, Tales from the...

25 Years Ago: AETERNUS release Beyond the Wandering Moon

Musically, AETERNUS stands between black Metal and death Metal mostly. We have our own style and the term 'dark Metal' suits it all perfectly, if one wants to label our music. Aeternus interview, Random #4, 2000 AETERNUS released their debut album, Beyond the Wandering Moon, on this day...

30 Years Ago: SADUS release A Vision of Misery

We didn't have the time of developing older demo songs, they were all new ideas and came at a time when there was a lot going on otherwise. We finished the touring cycle for Swallowed In Black (1990) in June/July of 91, and prior to that I was...

25 Years Ago: MIDVINTER release At the Sight of the Apocalypse Dragon

MIDVINTER released their debut album, At the Sight of the Apocalypse Dragon, on this day in 1997. The band split shortly after. MIDVINTER reformed in some capacity around 2006. Work on a second album, Harmagedo, continued through 2009 - including studio rehearsals - but the album has never...

30 Years Ago: PITCHSHIFTER release Submit

The LP has gone down pretty well with the 'zines and smaller mags. N.M.E. have (even) given us a good review, so have vox and Select, but Melody Maker? Who knows? MEDIAVOID. We love you M.M. & Kerrang. J.S. Clayden / Pitchshifter interview, Chamber of Sorrow #4, 1993...

30 Years Ago: EXHORDER release The Law

Musically, we've all matured, lyrically too. On "SITV" there's a lot of "fuck, shit, piss," and you can only say so much with fuckin' four letter words. Musically, as musicians we listen to a lot of different shit, and we're influenced by jazz, blues, coming from New Orleans...

30 Years Ago: AUTOPSY release Fiend for Blood

I don't know what to say, really. It's six songs. It's fucking way more graphic lyrically this time around, I think. It's got a lot more faster stuff on it this time. Before, like with the last album, we had a lot more slow stuff. People tripped on...

35 Years Ago: DESTRUCTION release Mad Butcher

Well, my first impression was that they [fans] reacted with a mixed opinion. Although the album sold well and we heard many people saying that it was the best music we'd ever done, there was always an undercurrent of people who said that it was too soft for...

25 Years Ago: NECROPHOBIC release Darkside

We are a band with roots for Death Metal since the very early days. We have a passion for this music, we don't care what the trend is for the moment, we still do what comes from our hearts, so to speak. As we wanted to do an...

25 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...

30 Years Ago: DARKTHRONE release A Blaze in the Northern Sky

We are the New Darkthrone. We deny old Darkthrone stuff. We formed in 1991. All has changed. Unholy black metal and satanic poetry are us. We hate death metal and trendy scene. We will not be part of it. To isolate it what we must do to make...

45 Years Ago: THE DAMNED release Damned Damned Damned

THE DAMNED released their debut LP, Damned Damned Damned, on this day in 1977 through Stiff. [Neat Neat Neat] was the track where I thought we had something really different. I always thought it had a really good groove, with the snaky bassline. It's kind of slippery. Dare...
