Good to see Tetsu finally free of his neck brace, haha.

Satsuki better watch out.

Oh no, everything is sung by Shuuji on 3, r.i.p.... Not really fond of these kitschy jazzy arrangements of the other mini either, judging by the samples. But at least they went all-out with the sound, haha.

1. when the guy goes "yayayayayaaaa" 2. the more OTT performance the better 3. too much delay and reverb 4. when the dudes look like fetish cyber-trannies 5. all the hilarious ｄｒａｍａ

I can't even keep track anymore with these guys... but good for them!

Cursed image confirmed.

I dig the new Immortal track too, having high hopes for the album now! There's also another new Marduk song out, "Equestrian Bloodlust", tho I've only heard a snippet of it - so far so good.

One of the very few younger vk bands I always come back to. Fun stuff as usual!

Just finished watching The Terror. Quality suspenseful horror series, with a cool historical setting. It dragged a little bit towards the end, but still a really solid experience with awesome performances and ample doses of atmosphere and tension. Made me really want to check out the original novel too.

Cautiously looking forward to it from the sidelines...

^ I agree, I just watched this yesterday myself, great fun. Really dumb but really spectacular and entertaining nonetheless.

That new Marduk track was pretty unremarkable for me, but I like how they mixed it up with the female vocals, hah. Also, listened to the new Aura Noir album, it's awesome as hell!

this, lmao.

They kept it totally old-school. I think they played everything off of "Anno Domini" in the main set, and then in the encore they played some songs off of "The 7th Day of Doom" (Branded by Satan, Mephisto and the title track if I remember correctly). Hopefully they'll play more in the future, not just the handful of summer festival dates they have announced currently. To quote Attila, "We'll meet again... if not sooner, then on the other side." lol edit: Found a pretty okay quality vid plus the setlist too:

Very special gig last night at Budapest's A38 venue. The return of the almighty Tormentor in all its original lineup glory! Warmup acts were Cult of Fire (pretty cool) and local post-black band Perihelion (not bad but kinda out-of-place imo), nice vibes all around. It was obvious tho that everyone came to see Attila Csihar & co of course and we weren't disappointed. I had some minor fears beforehand, of how well they would play after all those years, but they absolutely killed us all. Total old-school black/thrash inferno! All the fretboards of the guitars were blazingggg and Attila was a surely evil sight to behold (and to hear!). Tormentor I, Elisabeth Bathory, Beyond and Branded by Satan were my highlights of the night. Absolutely killer gig. Strongly thinking about attending Rockmaraton fest this year for a second helping of Tormentor, coupled with some Carpathian Forest. Random pic from the gig (not mine): More photos here if anyone's interested

Cringella status confirmed

^ Yeah, I just gave it a spin today too, really good stuff!

Sounds kinda boring so far tbh. Still, gonna check out the full song when it drops.

Doom - I dunno why, but I finally decided to watch this. All in all it was pretty entertaining midde-of-the-road B-movie action/horror, tho I got kinda bored towards the end (and that last fight was lame as hell for the most part). I hope they'll make a more over-the-top Doom adaptation someday.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the new Ghost, so much fun. Best video from them in a long time.

I haven't listened to Aura Noir before but the advance tracks from the new album sound pretty kickass, so I'll give it a shot. In other news: it completely took me by surprise but apparently there's a new Craft album coming in June! Awesome! edit: Also, NEW CARPATHIAN FOREST YEEEEEEES
