The second album by the Irish band Superstatic founded by Rustam, the founding member of Rakoth and Umbral Presence, who also used to play bass in Cruachan. The name of the band is derived from the debut Rakoth album, "Superstatic Equilibrium", however this time Rustam (under the name of Alex) has turned to doom death metal. On "Glimmering Veil" the music leaned more towards funeral doom metal, became darker and more complex, incorporating elements of horror. At the same time lyrics are based on works by Harlan Ellison, Wilhelm Hauff, Stephen King and Arthur Machen, and videogames Morrowind and System Shock 2, which makes listening to "Glimmering Veil" even more interesting and unpredictable.Guitar parts were performed by Sergei Lazar (Arkona, Rossomahaar), who has also mixed the album. The album was mastered by Tom Waltz, known from his work with Venom, Annihilator, Dopethrone and many other artists.
A solid release from a remarkably variegated band from St. Petersburg whose music, being so diverse, lets you feel the influence of different genres and epochs. Prehistoric avant-garde. The attempt to combine heaviness and folkish fairytaleness ended up successfully. The guys avoided the shallowness that so often accompanies such attempts.
Ypres is a St.Petersburg band named after the Belgian locale famous for being the place of first ever effective use of chemical weaponry in a war setting. Over the last 4 years the band has released a debut self-titled full-length, followed by the EP Genus Vitiosum, showcasing a firm affinity for the legacy post metal sound. On the latest release, the Umwelt single/EP, the band displayed a strong leaning toward a spacier, country- and Americana-tinged sonic landscape with some layered rhythmic concepts while engulfed in doom and sludge metal spirit.
With their fifth album, the Moscow-based band EndName continues the instrumental journey, further and further venturing into open space. The EVA album is saturated with atmospheric electronic arrangements designed to enrich and complement the guitar sound. Paying tribute to the past and looking into the future, a sound explorer is invited to sink into the EVA album, to be here and now, in the middle of colossal cosmos, to surrender to the powerful stream of sound, space and time.
The soil that has been cultivated by Without God for the past seven years since the phenomenal “Circus Of Freaks” gave a perfect harvest. The first crop has already been delivered in the form of the EP "Siberian Tunes: The Green Light", and now the second part has arrived in all its strength: the full-length album "Siberian Tunes: Purple Clouds" performed in a hard, dark and aggressive way, without mercy and compassion to listeners, pushing one straight into hell at full speed. The limited edition coming as a noble 4-panel digipack addressed to the true fans best expresses the message by Without God.
