Another Summoning update:
27.12.2012Last month we recorded all the guitar riffs for the new album, and Protector recorded already his vocal lines. Silenius will do his vocal parts in the next weeks. We replaced the original intro with a new one (which has a stronger intro feeling), the old one will be transformed into an instrumental track, which maybe will be used as a bonustrack together with the missing song from the othbound session. The new albums will be entitled "Old Mornings Dawn". A one minute teaser is in progress and will be available on the Napalm Records homepage soon.

Man, South Pole Dispatch is always one of the first things I read when I get my new issue of Decibel in the mail, but goddamn the man deserves some kind of award for the 100th issue 2-pager.

An Italian reader reminded me to check out Sweden's Left Hand Solution for another doom band with great female vocals. I'd heard of them but never got around to hearing them until today. Fevered (1997) is pretty great! Haven't started on Light Shines Back (2001) yet. They've been on extended hiatus, but have performed a couple times in recent years.

Really enjoying the Grand Supreme Blood Court album that came out last month. Four (ex-)Asphyx members + one Hail Of Bullets guy playing...exactly what you'd expect.

Really enjoying Beneath's Enslaved by Fear. They're Icelandic death metal ,and to me sound kind of like Behemoth without the black metal influence, catchy songwriting, well-played death metal.
Also digging Malignancy's Eugenics, although being that my first experience with them (and only) was Intrauterine Cannibalism, I barely recognized them.
