BMM. 039-10 Raventale – After

Format: CD
Release Date: 15.12.2010
Country: Ukraine
Genre: Depressive Black

Buy CD

The forth album of the famous Ukranian project Raventale demonstrates artistic evolution of its only member hidden beneath Astaroth name. On the one hand the new work named "After" continues the tendencies of the previous album with its mood and concept; on the other hand this is a standing alone masterpiece progressing from black/doom metal style to depressive black realm. The ideas behind this album demonstrate author's thoughts about eternity and its decay, about the cyclic nature of life and being, about the destruction of this reincarnation cycle by the nature itself. Without any doubt the album can be treated as the best album of Raventale that has been ever created. The gold-plated CD with pit-art comes with a booklet printed on a golden paper which makes "After" a must-have item for your music collection and an outstanding present for any adept of the genre.

1. Gone

Дебютный альбом российской группы Septic Mind. Громко заявив о своём существовании на Moscow Doom Festival V, отыграв на одной сцене с Esoteric, Pantheist и Jack Frost, группа вызвала интерес у любителей жанра.
Являясь продолжателями дела британцев Esoteric, музыканты отходят от канонического funeral doom в сторону различных экспериментов. Переработав материал своего демо, Septic Mind стали звучать по-настоящему экстремально, переходя от мощных гитарных рифов, через шумовые эффекты, к клавишным атмосферным вставкам, что наиболее полно отражает тематическую направленность альбома – холод и бесконечность космоса.

Genre: Gothic / Dark Metal

The first full-length album of Ukrainian band. High-quality material performed by young musicians has its roots in Draconian and Tristania representing their development in the conceptual album. The ideas of our ancestors about human fate and fragility of human being lie in the base of the album. As if untangling the ties of human destinies the musicians unfold the canvas featuring atmospheric keyboards, melodic guitars, female soprano and male growl. Another brilliant album for mournful contemplation of the approaching autumn.

Первый полноформатный альбом украинской группы. Качественный материал в исполении молодых музыкантов черпает идеи в творчестве, в первую очередь Draconian и Tristania, и развивает их по своему, создавая альбом, объединённый концепцией. Представления древних о человеческих судьбах и хрупкости человеческого бытия – положены прежде всего в основу альбома. Словно бы распутывая эти нити человеческих судеб музыканты от первого трека до последнего, разворачивают перед слушателем полотно, при помощи атмосферных клавиш, подложенных под мелодичные партии гитар, сплетая женское пение с мужским гроулом. Ещё один прекрасный альбом, для печального созерцания надвигающейся осени.

Дебютная работа французской группы. Эпическая работа, пронизанная философскими размышлениями, построена на смешении стилей: doom death тонко переплетён с dark metal, с умеренными и уместными вкраплениями black metal. Чистое звучание альбома передаёт все нюансы музыки – от меланхоличных лёгких проигрышей, до тяжёлых скоростных партий, наполненных яростью. Целостная и масштабная работа для слушателей с широким кругозором и утончённым вкусом.

Country : Russia
Genre: Progressive Metal

The third band album conceptually based on antiutopian literature of 20th century gives a new look at Letargy Dream. Being broadened to four members the band gets across the frontiers of their style featuring female hysterical screaming and male clean two- and three-part singing. Music-wise the album represents a compilation of such genres as progressive metal and neo progressive rock, stoner and traditional doom metal. Solid and leisured distorted guitar sound, technical drum passages breaking to blastbits, acoustic guitars and atmospheric keyboards create the masterpiece called "Heliopolis".

Третья по счету работа группы, сюжетная линия которой основана на антиутопической литературе XX столетия, открывает Letargy Dream с новой стороны. Расширив состав до четырех человек коллектив раздвигает привычные рамки своей стилистики, используя элементы истерического женского скриминга, который дополняют чистые мужские двух и трехголосия. В музыкальном отношении альбом являет собой компиляцию таких жанров как progressive metal и neo progressive rock, stoner и traditional doom metal. Плотный и тягучий, немного грязноватый гитарный звук, техничные барабанные пассажи, периодически срывающиеся на бластбиты, активное использование акустической гитары, атмосферные клавишные партии – все это “Гелиополис”.

The long-awaited debut album from Ukrainian stoner doom metal band. After recording several demos and performing a number of gigs appreciated by the audience Stoned Jesus summarized all their experience in "First Communion". Besides the influences by such masters of the genre as Sleep, Electric Wizard and Saint Vitus the band features a powerful load of psychedelic rock and old good blues rock. Groovy guitar riffs, suspension lasting until the last minute of the record and professionalism bring the band to the leaders of Ukrainian stoner scene. Guest appearance of members of The Grand Astoria, X-box Murder and Without God evidently approve this position.

Долгожданный полноформатный дебютный альбом от украинской stoner doom metal группы! Записав несколько демо-записей и отыграв живые выступления, тепло встреченные широкой публикой, Stoned Jesus выплеснули весь свой накопленный опыт на “First Communion”! Помимо явных влияний таких корифеев жанра, как Sleep, Electric Wizard и Saint Vitus, группа несёт в себе мощный заряд psychedelic rock и старого blues rock. Грувовые гитарные рифы, неослабеваемый на протяжении всего альбома напор и профессионализм, выводят Stoned Jesus в лидеры украинской стоунеровой сцены. Гостевое участие на одном из треков альбома музыкантов из таких групп, как The Grand Astoria, X-box Murder и Without God, только утверждают эти высокие позиции.

Треклист:

1. Occult
2. Red Wine
3. Black Woods
4. Falling Apart

BMM ART 07 Muhmood & Ego Ex Nihil – Fictive Planets

Format: Pro CDR in Cardboard Sleeve
Release Date: 01.08.2010
Country: Russia
Genre: Experimental Ambient / Post Metal

Collaboration of two experimental Russian projects based on mixture of post-metal doom riffs with dark ambient parts. A long deep space journey around invisible fictive planets is depicted by harsh guitar riffs while minutes of atmospheric soundscapes do not bring any relief just adding to the overall depressive picture of wandering and desperation. The issue includes a CD-R with professional printing, a booklet, a flyer and a hand-numbered certificate with unique copy number (edition is limited to 100 copies). It is packed in a mini-LP-sleeve of solid cardboard with original Art of Silence series appearance.

5. Lilith Amorpho

7. Kronos & Apollo
8. Priapus
9. Hades

Формат: Pro CDR in Cardboard Sleeve
Дата Релиза: 01.08.2010
Страна: Россия
Стиль: Experimental Ambient / Post Metal

Совместный альбом двух российских экспериментальных проектов, построенный на переплетении жанров, перемежающий пост-металические думовые рифы с дарк-эмбиентными вставками. Это длинное путешествие по глубинам космоса вокруг невидимых мифических планет, выраженное жёсткими гитарными рифами, когда минуты атмосферных саундскейпов не приносят облегчения, а добавляют новых, гнетущих красок в общую картину скитания и отчаяния. Издание включает в себя CD-R с заводской накаткой, буклет, флаер и карточку-сертификат с индивидуальным, проставленным вручную, номером (лимитированный тираж – 100 копий). Всё это упаковано в LP-Sleeve (издание под мини-винил) из плотного картона, с оригинальным оформлением серии Art Of Silence!

Release Date: 01.08.2010
Country: Russia
Genre: Ethereal Gothic

A singles collection from a legendary band from Naberezhnye Chelny. Starting their activity as dark metal band Canonis rapidly evolved to the band with its own unique style based on etherial gothic and dark folk. Having performed a lot of gigs and having taken part in a number of gothic compilations Canonis has not released their debut full-length album yet, therefore this compilation can be considered as a detailed report on gothic period in the band history. The issue includes a CD-R with professional printing, a booklet, a flyer and a hand-numbered certificate with unique copy number (edition is limited to 100 copies). It is packed in a mini-LP-sleeve of solid cardboard with original Art of Silence series appearance.

Формат: Pro CDR in Cardboard Sleeve
Дата Релиза: 01.08.2010
Страна: Россия
Стиль: Ethereal Gothic

Собрание синглов легендарной группы из Набережных Челнов. Начав свою деятельность, как dark metal группа, Canonis быстро перешла в стан коллективов, обладающих своим неповторимым запоминающимся стилем, основа которого – etherial gothic и dark folk. Проведя множество концертов, поучаствовав в различных gothic-компиляциях, Canonis, к сожалению, так и не смогли записать полноформатный альбом, поэтому эта компиляция является уникальным всеобъемлющим документом, отражающим gothic-период в истории группы. Издание включает в себя CD-R с заводской накаткой, буклет, флаер и карточку-сертификат с индивидуальным, проставленным вручную, номером (лимитированный тираж – 100 копий).

BMM. 031-10 Re123+ – Magi

Format: CD
Release Date: 01.03.2010
Country: Belarus
Genre:  Drone Doom / Post Metal

The debut official release from a unique Belorussian band. The music of Re123+ is an act of meditation. Each time the band offers to a listener  another kind of sound, never repeats itself preparing a special program  for each concert."Magi" is a travel to the Past demonstrating the ancient story of Adoration of Magi to the listener as an astrological story. This is the attempt to understand and to see the true essence of matter while clearing it from various interpretations. This album like all other  Re123+ works was recorded during night time. Besides traditional  drone-touched guitars the musicians introduced sounds of accordion,  triangle and percussion. Stylistically their music varies from  drone-doom to post-rock and will surely suit the tastes of early Earth fans.For proper visualization of the album's idea the booklet includes photo  art by members of Re123+ accompanied by citations from «The Island of  the Day Before» by famous postmodernist Umberto Eco.

Tracklist:

1. Way To The Son
2. Three In A Desert

Tracklist:

1. Sacrifice
2. Safety
3. As You Die
4. Centuries Of Men
5. Widow
6. Doomed
7. A Dark Sea
8. The Wise
