The 7" single Psywar will precede the album and be released on April 25th, 2014 (April 29th in North America) via their label Season Of Mist. Pre-orders are available here. If this video doesn't work on your location, try this. It might be restricted in some areas.

!J.O.O.E.! Account deleted	Permalink 18.02.2014 - 18:20 !J.O.O.E.! Account deleted It's a good one. Seems to me that this is to Ordo ad Chao what Odinist was to MoRT: Similar sound and aesthetic but simplified and more direct songwriting. Loading...
TheMAGAmvm Soycrusher Posts: 1086	Permalink 18.02.2014 - 18:27 TheMAGAmvm Soycrusher Posts: 1086 Good song. Mayhem seems like the kind of band that does not make the same album twice. I loved Ordo ad Chao, but this one sounds even better. Seems like Telloch is capable of continuing Mayhem's legacy. And heck, Hellhammer is still a fucking monster! Loading...

Seems to me that this is to Ordo ad Chao what Odinist was to MoRT: Similar sound and aesthetic but simplified and more direct songwriting. Oh man, to say I was relieved by hearing that Ordo Ad Chao sound is an understatement. Glad to see they seem to keep that atmosphere and overall production.

Vombatus Potorro Posts: 2391	Permalink 18.02.2014 - 22:05 Vombatus Potorro Posts: 2391 Not too weird, sounds quite straitforwards for AttilaMayhem. Still enjoyable, each album by these guys is a totally different entity (and always from good to great) so I expect the same. I like the production, not as asphyxiating as in Ordo but not clean either. Loading...
