Emma Ruth Rundle & Thou - May Our Chambers Be Full

"Stemming out of an offer from Roadburn Festival organizer Walter Hoeijmakers, mutual acquaintances, and a shared love of each other’s output, May Our Chambers Be Full is the first recorded document of collaboration between Emma Ruth Rundle and Thou. While their solo material seems on its face to be quite disparate, both groups have spent their respective careers lurking at the outer boundaries of the heavy metal scene, the artists having more in common with DIY punk and its spiritual successor, grunge. May Our Chambers Be Full straddles a similar, very fine line both musically and thematically. While Emma Ruth Rundle’s standard fare is a blend of post-rock-infused folk music, and Thou is typically known for its downtuned, doomy sludge, the conjoining of the two artists has created a record more in the vein of the early ’90s Seattle sound and later ’90s episodes of Alternative Nation, while still retaining much of the artists’ core identities. Likewise, the lyrical content of the album is a marriage of mental trauma, existential crises, and the ecstatic tradition of the expressionist dance movement. “Excessive sorrow laughs. Excessive joy weeps.” Melodic, melancholic, heavy, visceral. The visual art accompanying this work was created in collaboration with preeminent New Orleans photographer Craig Mulcahy. The faceless, genderless models are meant to emphasize this pervasive state of ambiguity and emotional vacillation, the images falling somewhere between modern high fashion and classical Renaissance.

Ignifania - La Divergencia y el Retorno del Fuego Negro

EP contains 5 tracks, now are available 2 tracks only for promotional purposes.

Oil Spill // Vakvnt

Com o fim de False devido a mais um efeito colateral não aceite pelo..digamos politicamente correto, ficou vago um pequeno espaço livre para alguém tentar ocupar no Metal mais extremo de tendência mais atmosférica vocalizado por mulheres.

Duas propostas cruas e algo primitivas mas que podem a trazer algo de interessante num futuro proximo.

Oil Spill

Pregados numa especie de experimentalismo sonoro focado no Sludge/Doom esta banda texana pode vir a ser (isto a julgar por esta demo) uma das próximas grandes apostas de algumas editoras norte americanas, daquelas que tentam cruzar barreiras onde o extremismo se funde com uma certa estranheza próxima do indie..talvez soe meio bizarro mas escutem por exemplo a "Bloodshed Obsession" e tirem as vossas conclusões...

 

Vakvnt 

Estes vindos do Canadá são outro nome interessante, embora diferentes de Oil Spill e mais direcionados para aquele Black Metal atmosférico conseguem nesta demo (apesar da produção algo tosca) criar uma base sonora que mesmo não sendo original consegue a espaços captar um pouco da aura existente em alguns lançamentos nordicos da decada de 90...

HAD - Had (mlp)

"HAD are a mysterious new entity hailing from Copenhagen, with members coming from such bands as Sulphurous and Deiquisitor. Their moniker translates to "Hate" in English, and like much of Denmark's thriving death metal scene nowadays, HAD possess a potency that's startling to behold. Above and below it reside nearly atmospheric leads that instill further memorability before drifting away like vapor trails of delirium. And vocals are beyond sepulchral, literally devouring the listener...if the music itself hadn't already done so."
