BELPHEGOR BIOGRAPHY

SUPREME DEATH/ BLACK METAL ART SINCE 1993

BELPHEGOR emerges as one of the most extreme line ups to ever come out of the death black metal scene. The band members themselves describe their hellride as "Supreme Death/ Black Metal Art”

SEYN TODT IN SCHWARTZ

1993: The now legendary demo on Maxi Cd format, BLOODBATH IN PARADISE, is circulated within the underground and earns BELPHEGOR the reputation of an unrepentant, blasting war machine. 1995: The first studio album, THE LAST SUPPER, is released on Lethal Records and is a welcomed collection of infernal hymns for their growing fan base. Following their own path of sin and befitting their ever-evolving anti-religious, anti-life attitude, BELPHEGOR’s logo gets revamped to incorporate two inverted crosses completely surrounded by blood representing the slaughter of Christians and martyrs.
1997: Last Episode Records releases BLUTSABBATH. BELPHEGOR’s sinister reputation continues to gain momentum.

MUSICA INFERNALIA

2000: Stagnation means death! The band spreads their disease once again via NECRODAEMON TERRORSATHAN, logging yet another volume of blasphemy added to The Vatican Library. 2002: BELPHEGOR celebrates their 10th anniversary by capturing a live set with songs played even faster than their original studio recordings on INFERNAL LIVE ORGASM
(released on their own label, Phallelujah Productions).

DIE TOTEN REITEN SCHNELL

2003: Produced at Mastersound Studios, BELPHEGOR cram their high-speed murderous brutality into the 8-track release of LUCIFER INCESTUS, and then tour again throughout Europe. 2005: The band opts to once again to work with Alex Krull at Mastersound to create the morbid GOATREICH - FLESHCULT, and later shredding Europe with the infamous X-Mass Festival and an eighteen dates headliner tour. “We don’t give a fuck about anything and don’t let anyone talk us into doing anything. Only the music counts!”

PEST TEUFEL APOKALYPSE

Produced, mixed, and mastered by Andy Classen at Stage One Studio in Kassel, Germany, and featuring artwork by Seth Siro Anton PESTAPOKALYPSE VI is, on the one hand, a concept album based on The Devil, Pestilence, and The Apocalypse, and on the other, a lesson in infernology. Incorporating unconventional harmonies with dynamic execution and monumentally aggressive vocal work, its multi-language approach (the German verses in “Bluhtsturm Erotika” are taken from the works of Marquis de Sade & Goethe; “Sanctus Perversum” defiles the church’s monopoly on Latin) accurately represents the infernal musical landscape BELPHEGOR comfortably inhabits.

Accept it: our world is necessarily haunted by evil, and when the armies of the dead return with their pestilence to annihilate the living, there will be no better guides while traveling down the fiery road to the endless abyss of Hell than BELPHEGOR.

BONDAGE GOAT ZOMBIE: BDSM & SATHAN 2008

With their seventh Album, suitably titled BONDAGE GOAT ZOMBIE, the Death/ Black Metal institution crushes all their previous releases! A real massacre of pounding Death Metal and majestic, hyper fast Black Metal spread out over nine killer songs full of diabolical possession, and pure darkness! BONDAGE GOAT ZOMBIE is their most mature effort up to day, this time BELPHEGOR have managed to melt ultra blastbeats and heaviness to one union.

The Fleischwerk was once again recorded in three sessions form November 2007 to January 2008 with Andy Classen in the famous Stage One Studios in Kassel/Germany – guarantying a smashing and powerful production.
The concept of the album is inspired by the infamous Marquis De Sade (1740 – 1814), giving the lyrics of the album a blessed touch of Evil. As on the last album, the vocals are held in English, German and Latin.
BONDAGE GOAT ZOMBIE is once again a lesson in violence and a true offering when it comes to crushing Metal with the extra punch in the face.

BELPHEGOR continue to keep the fucking devil and demonic spirit in Metal music alive...

BALFOR BIOGRAPHY

BALFOR was formed in November 1997 in a small town in eastern Ukraine, as a side project of Thorgeir - vocal/bass/guitar, and guitarist Svart, to play fast, but melodic, Black Metal. The band released their first album “Volki Severa” in 2001, and, following a number of personnel changes, and encouraged by the positive reviews the LP received, Thorgeir decided to concentrate all his energies on BALFOR and develop the band further. Berowar came in on bass in November 2005 and the two formed the core of what BALFOR was to become.

Defining their music as “Barbaric Black Metal” in tribute to the history of their homeland, BALFOR released their four-track promo “Pure Barbaric” for free download via a net label in 2006; a move that proved to be extremely successful in terms of raising the band’s profile and garnering a substantial following throughout the world. BALFOR’s fan bases, and reputation, were further increased by various live and festival appearances.

BALFOR today? With the release of the new album “Barbaric Blood”, it is obvious that founder Thorgeir has developed into a charismatic front man who is able to switch from aggressive black, to soaring melodic clean vocals with consummate ease, whilst BALFOR’s effortless ability to cross the melodic/black/death/extreme metal genres draws to them a diverse range of fans. “Barbaric Blood” is definitely one of the defining moments in BALFOR’s career.

AKTIV DÖDSHJÄLP BIOGRAPHY

Aktiv Dödshjälp was formed in 2004 by Tomas Nilsson who recently had been introduced to Swedish crust sound. Being overthrown by this new world of extreme music he felt an urge to create a band to explore this new dimension in music.

After several demos, complication albums and a split 7” had been released the majority of the band decided to quite due to the lack of interest, this was in 2006.
Tomas soon recruited new members to the band and wrote the band’s first fullenght album, 4:48 which saw the light of day in the middle of 2007. On this album he focused on mixing crustcore a lot with black metal and death metal elements.

In 2009 Tomas recruited Roberth Karlsson (also known from his work in Scar Symmetry and Facebreaker) to sing on the forthcoming Aktiv Dödshjälp album. By this time Tomas felt that he had explored most of the crustcore sound and started to experiment a lot more with hardcore elements in the songs. The previous tours done with Devian had also affected Tomas way in writing songs.

In 2010 the second fullenght album, Men allting har ett slut, was released and soon got a lot of attentions in Sweden.

IN-QUEST -BEL- Chapter IIX: The Odyssey of Eternity [2013] - Album review by NPH - Rate 8,5/10



IN-QUEST - BELGIUM - TECHNICAL DEATH METAL

Here we are to present and review the 8th album of Belgian death metallers In-Quest, the album goes by the suggestive title of "Chapter IIX : The Odyssey of Eternity". This is another smashing work from one of the best Belgian death metal bands of today's days, exploring deeper and sounding more complex than ever before. Their technical death metal musical combines perfectly with the hypnotic melodies that remain constant on the bands own sound since long years now!
Warning, this album shall haunt your ears with such delightful epic but still brutal sound for quite long time! Probably the most exact and precise album the band has ever made, tight as hell, you need to go on listening to it, on and on... so easily addicting and obligating you always to search for more and more details as you become more familiar to this piece of musical art!
Be sure to put your hands into this In-Quest album if you are found of technical metal sound in the vein of Meshuggah, Strapping Young Lad, Cynic, Textures, Fear Factory, Death and so on... put your headphones and embark yourself on this "Odyssey of Eternity"!

NeKronos Promotion HELL

IN-QUEST - Chapter IIX : The Odyssey of Eternity - 2013 - [ Self-Released ]
Genre: Technical Death Metal

"(...)A circular nullibist in denial, that the soul exists elapsed for infinity, an endless quest those in disbelief, this is the "Odyssey of Eternity""  Enter Eternity Of Lethargy - "Chapter IIX : The Odyssey of Eternity"

For those unfamiliar with In-Quest, I can only let you know that they are probably some of the most hard to categorize, challenging musicians you may have heard in quite some time. A band that was born in Antwerp (Belgium) back in 1994, ever since, they've proved to be one of the best and most challenging and respected Belgian bands. They play  an enlightened death metal full of outstanding technical details with the add of delightful hypnotic melodies, yet never losing the sound brutality, all this powered up by the smashing vocals of their Swedish singer
MiQe Löfberg!
In-Quest
are also a damn underrated band that has already played in several great tours, like the ones with Nile, Fear Factory, etc. they also played on tons of great shows in and outside Belgium like the one on the main stage of Belgium famous Graspop Metal Meeting Festival!

The new and 8th work "Chapter IIX :The Odyssey of Eternity" is another step forwards in the bands ascent, probably the most exact and precise release of the bands career, combining dynamic and skilled technical death metal sound with their own usual melodic elements that shall catch your attention! In fact it's a sound that refuses to accept standard categorization, better to be listened with full attention so you can catch all the hidden details into this modern, melodic, energetic, intense and technical creativity, something hard to find elsewhere this days! The album features 8 songs played on 8 string spanning on a curious exact 44:44 minutes length! This all, in the most epic and complex material built to the date by the band.

“The Odyssey of Eternity” takes you into a journey across a world drenched in chaos and disorder, times where mankind values are lost! The band sound explores all that to the limits, here chaos rules on such avant-garde progressive / technical sound, proving that this band masters these complex death metal morphosis! This art requires the best out from the musicians themselves. Grab your headphones and listen to such delightful and virtuous melodic solos from Douglas, the raged vocal variations of MiQe, the killer dynamic and skilled drums by Gert together with the pounding bass from Frederick with the add of wickedly chaotic rhythms by
Korre. All this material combined sure creates an artistically chaotic, yet technical and tight piece of art for adepts!

The lyrics mostly written by the MiQe’s creative mind follow the traditional In-Quest themes of human condition and consequent decay of values and the downfall humanity itself, the darkened future dominated by technology and a vitiated society. Yet on this release the infinity/eternity of cosmos, time itself as well as the social position of Man on this immense universe takes the main importance lyrically!
The engineering, mix and mastering done by Jochem Jacobs (Textures) and recordings at Splitsecondsound and Dougtape couldn't go better. On such a demanding and complex album, the production needs to be an absolute highlight so that you can hear in detail all the instruments. What can I say... they sure reached a perfect ending result on this camp!

On this album the band created an uniform quality release where the tracks connect to each other in perfection creating an idea of an never-ending hypnotic album, an album that goes on and on, as some use to say "... into eternity and beyond"! Each time you listen to it with full attention you will notice more an more illuminated details, in this way it’s surely hard to capture highlights on this album, simply because of all the uniform complexity of the album conception! Still tracks like "Neo-Pseudo Existence", "The Algorhythmic Alignments" and "Yearn To Return [Liquidation Fails]" may be closer to In-Quest traditional sound, those are the ones who capture my ears attention the most!

“Chapter IIX: The Odyssey of Eternity” is a technical death metal discharge, an obligatory album for all adepts of a skilful technical and progressive death metal. An absolute must if you are into bands like Meshuggah, Strapping Young Lad, Cynic, Fear Factory, Textures, Death and several other quality bands in this vein!
Epic, abstract, methodical and precise the 8th album of the Belgian In-Quest has all to capture demanding technical death metallers attention.
This creative eloquent piece of art is a true Odyssey that shall echo on your ears for all Eternity!

HATE -POL- UK Tour Canceled!

HATE
COUNTRY: POLAND
GENRE: DEATH BLACK METAL



UK TOUR CANCELED!
[2013.08.26]

We do regret to inform you that The Fleshgod Apocalypse/HATE tour in the UK has been cancelled. The reason for this is just bad organization of the shows and incompetence of the agency that was responsible for it in the first place.

Stephen Moss of Nuclear Blast Touring said “We tried to rescue the tour after the previous agent who was booking it made many errors, but in the past weeks we had more trouble as promoters were confirming shows with us that the promoter had not confirmed with the venues. So shows were being cancelled. (…) The only option is to cancel the tour and re-organize something for the future, which of course I am not happy about, with Nuclear Blast I have tried to rescue the tour, but we have failed.”

We are sure that many of you will find this disappointing. All we can do is to assure you that together with our agent we will be working on another tour in the near future. We totally appreciate your support to the band and we hope to find another opportunity to come on a UK tour fairly soon. Until then Rest in HATE!

VESANIA BIOGRAPHY

1997-2000
VESANIA has been brought into existence at end of 1997. The original line-up consisted of: Orion (guitars and voices), Daray (drums and percussion), and Heinrich (bass). As time progressed it became evident that there was a need for expansion. As a consequence, Hatrah was added on keys for the first recording - a rehearsal tape from that period; followed by Annahvahr (guitars and voices). The end of 1998 saw the recording of fifteen minutes worth of studio material. Shortly thereafter, the band was forced to decide whether or not to incorporate keys as a studio instrument. The position remained vacant for a considerable amount of time until the Fall of 2000 when the new keymaster, Siegmar, joined the band.

2001-2002
VESANIA performed throughout several cities in Poland, the band always maintaining that live performance and the live expression is a particularly important facet of their art. Throughout this time the band were simultaneously working on material for a full length album. Finally, at the start of 2002, the material from 1998 was released by Odium Records as the "Moonastray" limited edition split CD.
The anticipated breakthrough recording session of 2001/2002 ultimately took longer than expected, being delayed until the Spring of 2002. The band worked in Selani Studio (Vader, Lux Occulta) with production being handled by Szymon "Szymonaz" Czech.

2003
The debut CD, "Firefrost Arcanum", was released in January 2003 by Empire Records, this label handling all publishing and promotion at the time.
The release of "Firefrost Arcanum" was a very significant breakthrough for the band. Following the premiere of the debut album, VESANIA began to appear regularly in all forms of the musical media in Poland. Furthermore, in the Spring of 2003, the album was released in Europe by Crash Music. It all led to the band performing on the Metalmania Festival 2003 amongst the likes of Samael and Marduk and touring with Vader on the Blitzkrieg Tour 2003.
It was during this year that Annahvahr departed from the band with session guitarists being utilized for live performances.

2004
Time progressed and two of the members joined other established bands. Orion joined Behemoth in 2003 and in the Spring of 2004 Daray replaced Doc in Vader. Nonetheless, VESANIA continued to exist and at the end of 2004 began the recording session of the second album, "God the Lux". The chosen studio was Hendrix Studio (Behemoth, Azarath) in Lublin, with the sound engineering duties being handled by Arkadiusz "Malta" Malczewski.

2005-2006
The recording of "God the Lux" was completed at Hertz Studio (Vader, Decapitated, Lost Soul) in Bialystok and the mixing and mastering of the album was done with the Wieslawscy brothers.
Another major development for the band, was the signing of a new deal with Massive Management (Vader, Decapitated at that time). Shortly after, the band signed with Austrian label Napalm Records. Empire Records was the company handling the release and promotion of "God the Lux" in Poland, and Napalm Records worldwide. Soon after the premiere, VESANIA started extensive touring period. European tours among bands like Cryptopsy, Aborted, Grave, Gojira and others, Polish Blitzkrieg IV Tour with Vader, and headlining tour over Russia, all together getting close to a hundred shows within a year. The band expanded, adding a new member, Valeo from the band Sammath Naur (guitars).

2007
VESANIA members locked up and secluded themselves at the rehearsal room for the first month of the year, writing and arranging the new album called "Distractive Killusions". Recorded, mixed and mastered at Studio X and Szymon Czech during next months, the album was out by the end of a year through Napalm Records. For Poland, VESANIA signed a new deal with Mystic Production, and the Massive Management deal was concluded. Previous Polish label, Empire Records, released the single "Rage Of Reason" right before the street date of the full album through Mystic Production.

2008-2009
Highly anticipated touring for "Distractive Killusions" never happened. The band was doing its best to set up the tour, but all previous commitments have slowly taken down the plans made for VESANIA . The band decided to remain suspended indefinitely.
The musicians of VESANIA , being well recognized and respected in the metal scene remained busy with their other bands. Then in the 2008 Daray left Vader and joined the Norwegian Symphonic Black Metal veterans – Dimmu Borgir, the biggest band within its genre. By the end of 2009, Decapitated, who earlier split up due to personal tragedies, announced their re-union. Heinrich, VESANIA's bass player had joined to re-enforce the new Decapitated line-up.

2010
In the fall of 2010, VESANIA had started to gather their powers back again. The band began rehearsals and is getting ready for tours to come in 2011.
