 OUT NOW! NECHOCHWEN "Algonkian Mythos" CD (Epic Classical Neo-Folk from the USA) Track 03 - Algonkian Mythos MP3  ALGONKIAN MYTHOS, the debut album from NECHOCHWEN, is modern acoustic music spawned from a distant era. The album consists of ten tracks that focus on real people and real events involving Eastern Woodland Indian tribes in eighteenth century America. While some may categorize this as relaxing neo-folk music, the listener might occasionally smell woodsmoke and feel that someone is pointing a flintlock to his head while listening to it. Acoustic and classical guitars blend with chants and percussion to create a morose and aggressive new sound in dark classical music. The music of NECHOCHWEN will have a great appeal to those who are listeners of such great artists the likes of ULVER, TENHI, EMPYRIUM, and OCTOBER FALLS. Yet the music of NECHOCHWEN also stands along side classical guitar genius the likes of ANDRES SEGOVIA. The Monumental album ALGONKIAN MYTHOS is a dedication to the Native American roots and heritage of NECHOCHWEN. The listener will embark on journey of the soul set to an epic soundtrack of glorious classical neo folk unlike any other in existance! Each song portrays a somber story... Words directly from NECHOCHWEN: "These songs are about things that actually happened to real people, horrifically sad and gut-wrenching things that, if understood, are just as brutal as the rest of your roster". Nechochwen is currently writing his second full-length album and compiling tracks for a future anthology of unreleased material and select tracks from his work with Harvist, Angelrust, and Forest of the Soul. Recording and mastering sessions are scheduled for late July through August 2008 at Sacred Sound Studios in Ohio. The material will once again be produced by Andrew Della Cagna. Performances are scheduled for National Public Radio's Mesquite Heat Festival in Texas with the project Forest of the Soul, Heathen Crusade 3 in Minnesota, and some local shows in West Virginia and Ohio. |
 MYTHERIUM "GODS OF CHAOS" CD (EARLY 2009) MYTHERIUM featuring Bryan Johnston (ex Morpheus Descends, Fog), Jason Hatzel (Consumed By Fury, ex Cryptic), and Lord Typhus on vocals is a band destined for greatness. MYTHERIUM is an experimental metal band, that covers many genres: Black, Death, Doom, Progessive & Melodic elements are explored as well. First and foremost MYTHERIUM create dark and aggressive sophisticated metal that is unlike the majority of new music being churned out by empty bands on empty labels. MYTHERIUM will appeal to those who have the interest in discovering something new from each listen and have the intellect and desire to listen to an album time and time again. The music of MYTHERIUM is monumental and epic and those who discover it will be a choosen few with the intelligence to rise above boring mediocrity... MYTHERIUM are now mixing and mastering the debut album GODS OF CHAOS at DHR Studio/The Funeral Home Studio and it is scheduled for a 2009 release through Dark Horizon Records. |

SATANIK featuring Lord Typhus (Guitar, Bass, & Vocals), Dusk of HARVIST/TYPHUS (Drums), and Reverend Children (Guitar), are now in DHR Studio recording the "TO ANNIHILATE THE LIGHT" CD. Influeneced by the ritual writings/teachings of Alister Crowley, SATANIK achieve a secret magick through musical invokation obtained by superior dark philosophy, meditation and clairvoyant occult faculties obtained through a heightened state of consciousness transcending the three dimensional world communicating with nameless entities within the time space continuum. Using dark lyrical invokations obtained through meditative black magick occult mysticism the gates unto the void shall be opened and a dark plague yet unkown to man shall be unleashed. This recording is a dedication to the illuminated ones around the globe attempting to acheive the holy grail by means of drug inspired meditative occult magick. |
 GREY WANDERER is an acoustic project created by LORD TYPHUS. This project will feature a collaboration of talented artists from the USA. LORD TYPHUS is the main songwriter and director of the project, NECHOCHWEN will make an appearance adding his superb classical guitar talents, BRYAN JOHNSTON (Mytherium) will be creating soundscape atmospheres, as well as esoteric interludes, and DUSK (Harvist) will be adding procussions. Other muscians are in negotiation to be involved. More news will be announced once the details are worked out. GREY WANDERER is melancholic, droning, bleak acoustic music that is a complete dedication to the works of JRR Tolkien. LORD TYPHUS will enter DHR Studio this winter to navigate the first album of three that are in dedication to the Lord Of The Rings Trilogy. |
SPIRITUAL DECAY are currently writing and rehearsing material for their new album "A THOUSAND YEARS OF DECEIT". The new album will display the progression of the band into a more complex technical direction while still incorporating the brutal death metal elements the band is well known for. Bassist/Vocalist Shawna Silvers quotes: "New songs such as EMBRACING MENTAL CATASTROPHE & NOCTURNAL REQUIEM will give you a fierce aggressive rip out your soul kind of feeling, while songs such as OBSCENE REMAINS & DOWN TO REST vent on frustration and war and why a lot of us are disgusted with society". |
ENGORGE are currently working on material for their next album. The new album is tentatively entitled "Semen Inis Uterus Infernum" and will take Engorge back to the realm of blasphemy like no other metal band. Kyle Powell original and forming member will assault the holy spirit with his extreme and powerful vocals as always, Jim Rowe (ex-Incantation) will be drumming adding his talents that have not been heard since the ONWARD TO GOLGOTHA eara of INCANTATION, and Tom Stevens (Nokturnel, Morpheus Descends) will be writing material and playing guitar on the new album. More to come... |
 SAURON "UNIVERSE OF FILTH" CD REPRESSING Dark Horizon will re-issue "UNIVERSE OF FILTH" the monumental debut album from SAURON. If you missed this album the first time around, now is your opportunity to discover the Violent Blasting Furious Black Metal that is SAURON. The new version will feature new artwork and layout design. This is fast and relentless nihilistic furious Black Metal from The Netherlands. Extreme War / Black Metal at its finest! SAURON (the dark lord): The embodiment of pure evil is alive in the form of violent and destructive music. SAURON have proven yet again the underground is alive and breathing war flames of death upon the unworthy. They are an important and relevant band standing apart from the mass of redundant cloned drivel that plagues the Black Metal underground. |
