2001 : I Am Nothing But A Cry In A Chaotic Torment Mutill (guitars) and Malaria (bass) decided to create a Metal band
with their most extreme influences : Morbid Angel, Immortal, Lord Belial,
Dissection, etc.
2002 : I Become Flesh Yamaël (drums) joined the band, followed by Zig (screams) a few

dimensions : ‘Nirnaeth Arnoediad’ is the name of a battle in Tolkien’s
universe and means ‘eternal tears’.
2004 : Nothing But Ashes
After some first gigs 'Nothing But Ashes' emerged. This self produced
demo contains 4 titles which already carry with them what characterizes the
music of Nirnaeth : an organic structure articulated around devastating
riffs with dark melodies and themes dealing with pain and madness.
2006 : May Their Martyrs Suffer Once And For All ‘Thrown Athwart The Darkness’ has been released on label Great Dane
Records. Recorded at Midnight Studio, this first album exposed the
horde to the extreme metal scene. The album title was taken from a poem by
Percy Bysshe Shelley.
2008 : The Horns Resound Laboga Amps endorsed Mutill, alongside musicians from bands like
Motorhead, Behemoth, Annihilator, Hate Eternal, etc.
2009 : It Lieth, Gazing On Midnight’s Sky ‘Splendour Of The Abyss’ was released on label Great Dane Records.
Recorded once more at Midnight Studio, this album met very good reviews
and allowed the band to multiply gigs.
2015 : Fire Gave Me A New Face Vagorn replaced Yamaël on drums. The year ended with a
participation at the second edition of the Gohelle Fest (Obituary, Rotting
Christ, ...).
2016 : None Can Control It
The label Kaotoxin released 'Dramatis Personae', a split 7"EP with
bands Azziard and Nirnaeth. A video clip produced by
BullDogProd has been made for 'Nihil In Me'.
2017 : None Can Possess It Marbas joined the band as second guitar player, allowing the band to
explore new ways of creation. The third album, entitled 'From Shadow To Flesh',
was produced in 3 studios : drums were recorded at Psykron studio by
Phil Reinhalter, guitars and screams at Aeternal Studio by Mutill and
finally mixing and mastering were done by Deha at Forbidden
Frequencies Studio.
2018 : From Shadow To Flesh
A deal is signed with Malpermesita Records. 'From Shadow To Flesh' will
be released in september 7th 2018. It's a concept album dealing with possession,
from 2 perspectives. Cover was made by Above Chaos. First 500 copies are
limited hand numbered digipack.
MOONSHADE
COUNTRY: PORTUGAL
GENRE: MELODIC DEATH METAL
NeKronos Promotion is Proud to present the band of the NeKroWeek, they areMOONSHADE,
they are one of the most promising Portuguese melodic death
metal bands out there. Their debut album "Sun Dethroned"
has received the best reviews from
worldwide media. This is a band in ascension, already detaching from the
majority of new bands that we laid our ears into. MOONSHADE
is a band capable of bringing beauty within chaos, death and despair... a delightful melodic death
metal experience for adepts and a highly recommended band for all those out
there seeking to listen to elite quality music with an heart and soul attached
to it!
In 2010, guitarist Pedro Quelhas and drummer Cristiano Brito left
gothic rock band Deep Cut, determined to venture into a new project. Soon
after, they joined forces with guitarist Dinis Martins, bassist Rúben
Oliveira and lead singer Ricardo Pereira, and founded Moonshade.
Influenced at first by northern Europe’s recent wave of melodic death metal
bands, and with a clear goal of combining melodic and extreme elements, they
released “The Path Of Redemption”, their first EP, which came out solely
in digital format and was produced by Pedro Quelhas himself. After a few
concerts, came the first lineup changes: Cristiano and Rúben left
the band and bassist Afonso Aguiar joined the ranks.
In 2014, the band released their second EP, entitled “Dream | Oblivion” –
their first work to be released in physical form. The album, which featured
Luís Neto as a session drummer, was also produced by Pedro Quelhas,
and its release was accompanied by the release of the “Goddess Eternal”
single, as well as the addition of drummer Sandro Rodrigues to the lineup.
In 2015, guitarist Daniel Laureano and keyboard player Nuno Barbosa
joined the band, marking the dawn of a new era for Moonshade, who
spent the next couple of years performing on some of Portugal’s biggest stages,
such as Vagos Open Air, Pax Julia Metal Fest and Morbid Spring Fest,
among others.
At the tail end of 2017, Afonso left the band and keyboardist Nuno became
the band’s new bass player, a function he accumulated with his former one. This
lineup recorded the “Sun Dethroned” album, the band’s debut full length.
The record, a conceptual piece exploring the balance between good and evil, and
its necessity in life, was released by Spanish label Art Gates Records,
in 2018.
After a string of successful shows and Sandro’s departure, the band
announced their first international shows, as part of the Dethroning Stars
Tour, alongside fellow northern Portuguese band Apotheus, and
featuring Diogo Mota as a live drummer.
Already peeking at their tenth anniversary, Moonshade are more alive than
ever, in their constant aim to musically redefine the beauty within chaos, death
and despair

TRIDENT UNLEASH NEW SINGLE/LYRIC VIDEO FOR "NORTH"!
PRE-ORDERS FOR "NORTH" NEW ALBUM AVAILABLE NOW! [2020.07.24]
Recently
Sweden blackened death metallers TRIDENTwill release their sophomore full-length album “North” on October 2nd
2020 via Non Serviam
Records.
Finally, today the band unveils the lyric video for the title track "North"
to give a taste of their new masterpiece. Check it out here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeH7_JLRet4
Today the band unveils the first details of their sophomore full-length album
“North” to be released on October 2nd 2020. The nine-song effort was mixed
and mastered by bass player Anders Backelin (Lord
Belial,
Death
Tyrant) at
Armageddon Recordings.
“North” is moving away from tight structural extreme music and want to
bring back the soul of the old greats. The record is an epic journey across
blackened death metal with the band's very own, unique flare to it.
The stunning artwork was created by Juanjo Castellano Rosado (Unleashed, The
Black Dahlia Murder, Varathron, Vomitory, a.o.).
The band explains: “We envisioned ourselves to create something that
was lost after the 90’s era, embracing the freedom of musical structures and
boundaries to create something which speaks from within. This album is a vision
of what we believe was missing from that era with a purpose to bring back the
soul of the old greats. This album is the creation from many years of hardships,
translated and formed to art through musical expression. As entities, as humans,
we have been put aside to bury the raging feelings from within and never to
express them. We understood that not expressing ourselves would be our demise.
As a dam breaking, flooding with energy, this was created to tell the story of
our lives and to express ourselves through art. The album artwork and the songs
themselves tells a story about an Internal journey, of ominous visions through
dreams, touching the subjects of ancient wisdoms long forgotten, cursed
bloodlines”.
The track listing reads as follows 1. Enter 2. Death 3. Imperium Romanum 4. Summoning 5. Pallbearers Hymn 6. Final War 7. Possession 8. North 9. Shaman

Dissection guitar player Johan Norman, ex- Lord Belial
