(novi post – recenzija) Grima – Nightside(Napalm Records)

Grima dolaze iz Rusije, točnije Sibira, aktivni su od 2014. i riječ je o bendu kojeg čine dvojac blzanaca Morbius na gitari i basu i Vilhem na gitari, basu, klavijaturama i vokalima. Ovo im je šesti dugosvirajući opus i sadrži osam stvari plus intro i outro. Album otvara epska Beyond The Dark Horizon koja svojim kotrljajućim melodičnim atmosferičnim riffovima melje sve pred sobom nošena Vilhelmovim kričavim black metal izmučenim vokalima. Tekstovi su na engleskom jeziku i teme su uglavnom osobna tama, priroda i paganizam. Ima nekih dužih pjesama, ali album nijednom ne postaje dosadan u tih pedesetak minuta koliko traje. Stvari koje bi svakako još mogao izdvojiti su odlične Skull Gatherers i Flight Of The Silver Storm koje su s pravom odabrane za singlove i za koje su napravljeni spotovi, pogotovo potonja koja je savršeni spoj pagan klavijaturnih melodija i harmonike, te melankoličnih riffova sa catchy hookovima spojenim mid tempo epic black metal sa odličnom melodijom miksanom sa atmosferom brzih bubnjeva. Grima se inače na koncertima i spotovima pojavljuju maskirani u drvene maske tako da dodaju na mistici i atmosferi. Tu su još Mist And Fog, kao i Where We Are Lost koje mogu izdvojiti kao moje favorite na albumu. Odličan hladan sibirski black metal.

(new post – new single) PROJECT RENEGADE – listen to the new single No Country For White Flags

No Country For White Flags tells the story of the constant effort to realize the dreams of a man born in a place where everything is designed in such a way that his entire environment works against him. The daily struggle, the daily difficulties, the failures and the persistence in our path to find our place in this world is something we all face when we come into this world. We live it every morning when we wake up and we feel its wounds, its effects and its toil every night when we go to sleep. Every day is a war and unfortunately for us Greece is not a country for white flags.

In the musical part, we decided to let Marianna convey the message and talk about things that concern us even today. The feeling of disconnection from your home can really burden many aspects of yourself.

No Country For White Flags is our boldest and most diverse track and completes the journey to the dystopian “Ultra Terra”.

(new post – new album alert) Super Glue Anxiety releases their first album

Photo: Super Glue Anxiety

Super Glue Anxiety is a Finnish experimental music band. Their music is heavily influenced by various genres, including punk / ska / funk / metal.


The band started less than a year ago. They started their career cautiously, testing out a few singles. The feedback from the world was better than expected, so singer Kraapo and guitarist Räikkönen finally decided to record and release a full album.

Listen to the album on music services (Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, tidal etc.): https://push.fm/fl/sga-firstrowseats

Singer Kraapo has the following to say about the project: “We did it all winter, alongside day jobs and other projects. Now I feel relieved and happy that the release is finally seeing the light of day. Guitarist Räikkönen and I were surprised that the album turned out to be musically light. Maybe we had the impression that it was going to be heavier. However, there are a bunch of excellent songs on the album, so there’s no point in complaining.


The situation was that we had 20 demos. We got to choose the best ones from these. There were still some good songs left in stock, so maybe one day a second album will be released. These were edited at Samu Oittinen’s studio. We also had a few guest stars sing parts to different songs. This gave the whole thing a nice extra color.


The album has a lot of experimentation and creative madness. This album and this kind of music have been really fun to make.”
