One hell of a ride

Nice thing have I found today. They're from Poland(yay!), Warsaw. Formed in 2003, they released three LPs: "Skyward" (2006), "Humagination" (2013), Aftereal (2014). Why the hell have I not heard them (or about them) before? I'm ashamed of myself.

2015 awaits

It's still the beginning of the new year...

Most people do some summaries and that sort of stuff. As for me... well, I prefer to anticipate the future rather than think about the past. So... what is there to be awaited in this year?

Surely I will be attending some concerts. I have already planned to see Black Label Society, Overkill + Sanctuary, Blind Guardian, Testament, Judas Priest and Annihilator but this is only a must-see list and only the bands that I already know that will be playing somewhere around. Who know what other bands will announce their shows in Poland and what will my friends talk me into? Surely I will also visit some festivals but that's not yet decided.

As for the albums I mostly await, surely there is new Enforcer LP "From Beyond" to be released at the end of February. Apart from that, Nuclear Blast announced that Slayer and Testament (and several other bands but not so interesting for me) will release new albums this year. These are the ones I look forward to the most. There's also Blind Guardian's "Beyond The Red Mirror" to be released at the end of this month but I'm not sure how much I expect it. As far as I really respect BG and enjoy their older albums, I'm not sure if the newer ones fit my taste.

What else is there for us in 2015? We shall see.

Balanced mood?

Usually I choose to listen to music that suits my moods. I have a heavy metal mood, power metal mood, thrash metal mood...

Currently I'm experiencing progressive metal mood and so I post Thought Chamber. As many other bands, lastfm found them for me. Below you can find a track from their first album, "Angular Perceptions" (2007). I gotta admit - I don't know their music very well (yet). But this one suits me now perfectly. Hear about the "Balance of One".

News from Sweden

Yeah, Enforcer finished recording of a new album.

Their forth release, "From Beyond", will be out in Europe on February 27th. Can't wait to lay my hands on it...

From their facebook anouncement:

Vocalist and guitar player Olof Wikstrand comments: "»From Beyond« is faster, heavier, louder, darker and more vicious all at the same time without losing a tiny bit of what ENFORCER stand for. A fist in the face of all current trends and a stake through the throat of modernity. Total metal!"

Album will contain ten new songs:

01. Destroyer
02. Undying Evil
03. From Beyond
04. One With Fire
05. Below The Slumber
06. Hungry They Will Come
07. The Banshee
08. Farewell
09. Hell Will Follow
10. Mask Of Red Death

After a break

Christmass and New Year. This always makes me loose my contact with reality. And so after over a week I have a lot to catch up with. And I surely will... but I'm too lazy today. :)

I enter the new year with some old school heavy metal in my ears and with a resolution to make this blog really work. For you see.. I'm not really a systematic person and my enthusiasm is often short-lived. It's hard for me to do something in regular intervals. But I'll do my best.

Today I've put some text about Skull Fist. Next one will be Rocka Rollas or Striker. Let's check if I can make myself do it within a week...

edit 25.08.2015: did not do it so far
