Sound Riot Records - Last News From The Label
TRISTWOOD
Extreme Metal band from Austria combining the obscurity and speed of the Black Metal and the brutality of the Death Metal with the abysmal atmosphere of the Industrial, nothing have been as consistent as Tristwood to fusion of the variant of Extreme Metal with formidable precision, perfect symbioses and sophisticated metallic assault! Labeled as Apocalyptic Metal, a soundtrack for the end of the world! Of course, there are a few influences that recall the similarly bombastic of Behemoth, Aborym or yet Nile but they have more to offer. The band has improved a lot since their debut album, both the playing and musically with notable songwriting ability and lyrics well wrote. "The Delphic Doctrine" is a furious onslaught in 42 minutes. Global extermination is set to 21-04-2006!!!

INBORN SUFFERING
We are proud for have signed Inborn Suffering, this young and talented French band. They play a melodic and dark Doom Metal in the vein of the gods of the English Doom Metal. Their full-length album titled "Wordless Hope" features one hour of very well inspired orchestration in pure melancholy. It is full of beauty, sadness and sorrow where such fantastic symphonies can to be compared with classic albums like Anathema's "The Silent Enigma" and My Dying Bride's "Turn Loose the Swans". There is utterly mournful string arrangements wind around the slow Doom metal as well as some passages of violin, piano and female vocals were added perfectly. Of course, the vocals are deep and expressive grunts but sometimes spoken and sometimes-screamed vocals. This is wonderful masterpiece of Doom Metal like the former days. Wait for this album in middle of 2006. For more info, visit:

The Haunted - Update From The Studio
Peter Dolving of Swedish act The Haunted has posted the following studio update regarding the band's forthcoming new album:
"We're going forward. This is exciting and scary. So far we got 12 songs that are evolving smoothly. So far I'd say the stuff is much heavier than previous records, I get a feeling like AT The Gates meets King Crimson.
Oh I don't know - It's hard to describe but personally I think we're coming up some heavy shit. Sometimes I feel like 'WHOA! This is turning into a Pink Floyd record for the dysfunctional.'
It's nice for a change to have a good rehearsal space in Gothenburg this time and the possibility to communicate with our computers instead of having to play stuff over the phone at 2 in the morning, especially now since we've moved out all across Sweden. Well, I have a really good feeling and I'm really looking forward to recording this monster..."

Insomnium - To Record New Album
Insomnium posted the following update on theri official website:
"Finnish metallers Insomnium are about to invade the the Fantom studio in the beginning of April to record a new album. Some crystal clear and yet brutal sounds are to be expected since Fantom is the name behind some of the best albums ever produced in Finland. The songs which are to be recorded include such dreary titles as "At the Gates of Sleep", "The Mortal Share", "Drawn to Black" and "The Killjoy". The new material is clearly more aggressive, punchy and tighter than the previous album but the melancholic mood, wistful melodies, doomish passages and progressive twists are still present. "For sure this is going to be our greatest effort so far", tells vocalist/bassist Niilo Sevänen. "This will be a very versatile album and each song will be full of nuances. There is fury and there is sorrow. Scandinavian melodic death metal at its finest!" Insomnium's third album is released in autumn 2006 by Candlelight Records."
