Eulogy To Nothing_CoverDigital

Aezoth are from Germany and this is their new release that I got from the excellent label Undead Artists Records

This debut album of Aezoth contains 12 songs. This is basically horrorpunk, yet with a touch of sludge, doom and death rock, even gothic rock. These guys are mixing many genres but they do is fantastically. The melodies of the songs are just fantastic. The voice of the singer is for sure one of the best girl vocals I have heard in the scene for the last couple of years. The songs are dramatic, atmospheric, like phenomenal A Lonely Night Of Loss And Doubt, also superb punkrock uptempo Feed The Poor Eat The Rich. The titles to the songs contain a bit black humour and irony like Selfdissecting Zombie or Anecdote About A Lost Body also the title song which is one of the top three songs for me on this record. This is a fantastic debut album, so go try this one. If you like drama, esoteric melodies, horror and punk with goth sombre kinda sad vibe, this is the right one for you.

Evo nakon dugo vremena jednog posta na matičnom jeziku. Uveli smo novitet u zine koji se zove bend tjedna.  U ovoj prvoj epizodi predstavljamo punkrock/streetpunk bend iz Apatina, Srbija, a to je Majkan.

Majkan je punk rock bend iz Apatina, oformljen u siječnju 2019.g. Bend je u početku svirao obrade domaćih punk grupa, ali ubrzo počinju raditi i autorske pjesme. Prvi single za pjesmu  Ajmo u kafanu  su objavili u studenom 2019g.  Pjesma u kratkom vremenu postala hit i omogućila bendu promociju i brojne nastupe. Početkom 2020.g Majkan izdaje drugi single za pjesmu Dobro veče, kojim stiču još više publike. Poslije pauze izazvane pandemijom, Majkan nastavlja sa radom i krajem svibnja je izašao treći single Kao pre. Pjesma dobija dobre kritike i bend u lipnju održava nekoliko uspješnih koncerata. Krajem lipnja, objavljen je četvrti single za pjesmu  Laku Noć”. Spot sadrži kadrove sa nastupa iz Apatina, Novog Sada i Stapara. Sve  pjesme su snimljene pod producentskom palicom Nemanje Kalinića. 

Bend trenutno radi na novim pjesmama i uskoro se očekuje još jedan singl. 

Majkan čine iskusni muzičari koji su svirali u mnogim metal, punk i rock bendovima. Bend svoju pravu snagu pokazuje na koncertima gdje dolazi do velike razmene  energije između njih i publike. Članovi benda su : Igor Bukvić – bubnjevi , Nemanja Kalinić – gitara i prateći vokali, Rade Balać – vokal i bas.

(review)REZUREX-Skeletons(Cleopatra records)

Rezurex

Rezurex are back with the brand new full length record and it is a crushing piece of music. The new record contains 11 songs and I can safely say that this is Rezurex album that I like the most of all released until now. The band continued to evolve their mixture of horrorpunk and punkabilly with nice melodies and vocals, courtesy of band leader Daniel deLeon and boy this one really sounds good. From fast and straightforward Creature, also Ghost, to more gentle single for which the video was made Mi Calavera di Amor , featuring guest vocals by Rene from The Brains, this album rocks.  Also, my favorite on this record is Sacred Heart having such superb and sad guitar work only horrorpunk can provide.  I didn˙t like Freddy Krueger influenced Nightmare, being too much rock n roll, too little punk for my taste. Also Dark Side was okay, but not up to the rest of the material on this record. But, more songs like Shadow or Go Away are anthems to remember for future gigs somewhere, somehow.
