First I have to get to know Negura Bunget :-D and the more I hear about them, the more I feel need to understand them.

Same with me, except getting wet (not even metaphorically ;-) ), really looking forward to it. Bantam to Behemoth started so aggressively and charmed us all.

Will do. From what I heard, they seems like guys who can stir emotions in everyone. Aren't they one of these hate a lot, or love a lot bands ?

If you're OK with extremely extreme black metal, that album can only be a love affair.

I see Ulver is listed. It's a cover album of songs from the 60's and 70's entitled Psyche. They're also hoping to get their collaboration with Sunn O))) completed by spring, but we'll see on that.

From their myspace:

"There is also a collaboration with Sunn O))). We had a terrific tracking session with the Nazgûls after their appearance at the Øya festival well over a year ago. We spent a month or so editing the material and adding our sheen to the sound. Since then it has unfortunately been lying dormant due to difficulties getting everyone together. We hope to join forces and finish the thing this spring. It is becoming a ghost."

Cross your fingers.

You know what Necron and Alex ? After all, I think that I can enjoy this kind of music. I never though I'll be able to, but apparently, I am.

I never was OK with this genre (and similar genres), as I always embraced symphonic elements in prog. But death metal growls seems to be rather pleasant here. Well, not pleasant as calm, peaceful and nice, but more like that you can feel the raw energy of it. With great atmosphere. Truly great. Because this music isn't addicted (and does not  depend) on black/deat/doom metal (whatever you call it) elements. Om uses this parts only as means of bringing their ideas forth,

It probably will, so I'll think about it. By the way look at this guys:

Maybe it can help. A lot.

These are called epic fails :-) I know, I'm ashamed, as it's my home field. When I was on their gig, around beginning of October (my first prog gig ever), I even bought their poster (with new CD), but forgot about it.

By the way, if you want to check them, they'll be in Bruxelles soon, http://ujd.tre-hosting.cz/concerts.php - 20.03.2010

Really looking forward to this one.................................

Speaking of which, looks like it's finally grabbed the #1 spot on the 2008 charts

Instead of big BOSS ? Interesting, as I love (truly love) both. Well, maybe Karmakanic's one more, but that's only because I'm listening it more.

1)Maybe you didn't know, but cover of Bantam to Behemoth is part of this painting by Dutch painter (medieval) H. Bosch. It's called Garden of Earthly Delights. I have two paintings in my room and one of them you can see

2)in my signature picture, noticing it already ? :-)


BEAutiful, really nice work of art, both of them. Also, this painting inspired me to write so much words for their album.

Yeah, it really is incredible. I was actually inspired to look it up as soon as I got the album, mostly because I was curious as to why the cover art was so grainy while the rest of the album art was fine.
