If you are looking for something different check out this band from Finland.

Experimental group that combines Metal, Ambient, Noise, Glitch, Industrial to create unique sonic spaces and dark moods. Their music ranges from haunting ambient passages to violent Death Metal.

I must admit I was just going to ignore the new track until I read GT's words "serious sick shit". That certainly caught my interest, don't know what's wrong with me, haha.

Anyway, I guess GT's definition of "sick" differs from mine, which is not surprising if you compare our taste. But I thought it was rather mellow, in terms of sickness that is. The track is good though, but it's not what I'm looking for in music at the moment.

Thanks for listening anyway

Black, drone, pop, and lotsa (extreme) doom.

Quite a variety of genres there - but it's always good to listen to different things I feel.

Please keep an eye on this thread - there will be a new album out at the beginning of next year - ( hopefully ) .
Maybe there will be something on there to attract your interest - but definitely NO pop

This is right up my alley, so to speak, if 'The Inexhaustible Hatred of Mankind' is anything to go by. On my first play through I've encountered an innumerable amount of genres but there's definitely an overt industrial tone permeating the whole album. I can see why people might find this quite daunting, it's not exactly an easy listen given the upredictability of the style but I love it.

I'm not surprised that you don't know them - very few people do.
They shun publicity

If you go to their website / forum ( click on the link in my sig ) you can find out all you need to know - and download their music - for FREE .

Today i explored their recent album "Sounds of glass..." -from their site-. First thing I found is that they haven't a cover artwork for the album! (they say that they're lazy?!). No big deal. Let's comment the songs? (for the mp3's, I used my mobile phone & earphones - I paid more attention to the songs # 4 and from 6-12 (actually these last 6 songs are the ones that made me listen carefully!). First of all the titles are interesting and of course (from start) you understand the themes the group deals with (ignorance of self, damage inflicted by solid conquering faith-liked it-?woven together in a somehow "conceptual" album with mr. Jack). I think there are progressive elements in the music (something that I admire) but this album loses significant "points" - poor overall production. However, the guys say that some "mistakes" were made deliberately.. I'd like to hear more the keyboard (but there are harsh parts in the songs it- it doesn't fit completely-strange!) The vocalist at certain parts is maaad  /rage! Well, that's it - the sure thing I'll listen it again. [you like sun 0))? spoooky!

Thanks for listening and for your opinion on the album - the band appreciate any feedback.

I have mentioned the lack of artwork several times - to no avail.
It will get done when it's done

The production was kept deliberately low to give the album more of a live feel .
Maybe you don't think that worked ?
Being an experimental band , they like to try different things on every album.

I'm pleased that you want to hear it some more.

Watch this thread - there will be more to come I am sure.
There may be some "side-project" work too.

Yes , I like Sunn O))) .

Yeah , that one's not quite their usual style - but who knows what will appear next ?

You'll need to keep checking the site because there are more new tracks that might escape soon ...

I'd like to see them combine the early droning noise rock of Skullflower with the modern industrial avant-garde black metal of Blut aus Nord!
