MISANTROF ANTIRecords is proud to release the debut full length by AZGAAL`s "A MATTER OF DEATH"


AZGAAL starts in 2001. Two guys. A demo. No plans. Pure expression of feelings. Ten years later they do an EP and compilation. They split, but Naïwyn doesn't give up and decides to wave his middle finger to the world: “A Matter Of Death” comes to life. And this creation aims to reach the deepest shade of death: AZGAAL joins Misantrof ANITRecords. Together they wave an even bigger middle finger to the world, and this is, once again, a pure expression of feelings!

AZGAAL haunts us all from France. AZGAAL claims this is some rockin' black metal, some black and roll.
Is that true? Call it black, badge it metal. See it killing, see it rolling... It doesn't change the core concept that lays among these nine killer tracks: AZGAAL is pure energy, pure power. It is as evil as black metal. As groovin' as rock'n'roll. As powerful as heavy metal. As obscure as the darkest gothic stuff around. Riffs that can annihilate. A rhythmic session that is a pure assault. A lethal production craeting a supreme sound performance. All this with the use of dual voice (aggressive one and clean one) feeds a wider range of emotions. These emotions arise from AZGAAL's burning fire, and will corrupt your soul.
“A MATTER OF DEATH” is one of those albums that can change the rules. Nothing will be the same afterward. A supreme feast of music theories, that will simply blow your mind away, doesn't matter what kind of metal you used to prefer.
As every release by Misantrof ANTIRecords, AZGAAL – "A MATTER OF DEATH" can be downloaded for free from the band's Misantrof page. The release can be freely copied and shared by the general public for non commercial purposes and is protected by The Creative Commons - Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported license.

Death streams "Living Monstrosity"

Death/Progressive Metal band Death has posted a new remaster song online "Living Monstrosity". The track appeared on full-length entitled "Spiritual Healing" from 1990. Originally released via Combat Records, will be released Nov 20, 2012 through Relapse Records. The track can be heard here.

Death’s landmark ‘Spiritual Healing’ record is nothing short of genre-defining. Originally released in 1990, Spiritual Healing marked a new turn in the Death discography, one which ushered in cleaner production, a new level of boundary pushing musicianship and songwriting skills that were previously unimaginable from a metal band. Spiritual Healing sets the standard for riffs, insane time changes and of course mainman Chuck Schuldiner’s masterful guitar solos.

“I don’t believe in heaven, I believe in pain, I believe in fear, I believe in death” i.e. Torn The Fuck Apart`s The Dissection Of Christ



The super gore Torn The Fuck Apart death metal band released past April 2012 their latest album “The Dissection Of Christ”. The presence of the brutal sound which we are used from their past works is inevitable, pure death metal, pure chaos unleashed in every note, we really can feel their rage when listening to their blasting music. This work is not for the weaklings especially for those who believe in religion, this is pure hate against Christ. Torn The Fuck Apart give us their side of view with really good statements in which religion is not the path for humankind, in music such as “God´s Blood Turned Black” and “Our Serpent Savior” there are affirmations from the movie Religulous said by Bill Maher: “plain fact is religion must die for mankind to live” and “Faith means making a virtue out of not thinking”. If you want to know more you have to see the movie. They also use references such as the game Max Pain “I don’t believe in heaven, I believe in pain, I believe in fear, I believe in death”, they use the “miracle” scene in Pulp Fiction movie to mock those who believe in miracles, and other strong references but the funny part is to find those lines scattered in their music and guess where you have heard it before.

When I hear Torn The Fuck Apart I remember of the deathcore band killWhitneyDead that also transmits their messages trough important movies sentences, the good cultural taste in junction with furious death metal convey an image of intellectuality and knowledge that shows that metal isn´t for people who only headbang to loud music, metal is much deeper than that.

RAM vocalist Oscar Carlquist comments: ""Death" is some sort of a rebirth for us, since it is the first album to feature our new bass player Tobbe Petterson and our first on Metal Blade Records. This album is filled with a dark, sinister energy that comes from beyond music and heavy metal. We are very excited about this album because it's truly RAM caught in it's raw essence, we recorded it live in the studio to try to offer our soul upon this altar of sonic steel. Beware we have brought "Death" upon the world!"

RAM was created back in '99 and released their first E.P Sudden Impact in 2003. After playing numerous festivals and a support tour for Sebastian Bach they released their first LP, Forced Entry, in late 2005 which brought the entire old school Heavy Metal community to its knees. RAM hit the road with Dark Tranquillity, did some Scandinavian shows with Gamma Ray and played gigs and festivals all over Europe. 

In 2008 the band returned to the studio with producer Johan Reivén to record the album Lightbringer which was released in 2009 via AFM Records. This time they really took the time to explore the true heavy metal sound. The recording of the album took 10 months of nothing but strife for pure Heavy Metal perfection. RAM also headed out on a headline European tour to promote the album. 

In 2011, RAM went back into the studio to record their third album Death. This time they worked with producers Per Stålberg and Olle Björk to create their best album to date by far. Live shows as support for Swedish extreme black metal band Watain followed as well as destroying some festivals. 

The world trembles in fear before the release of the metal behemoth that is Death. RAM are back! Necks will be broken! 

RAM is:
Oscar Carlquist - Vocals
Morgan Pettersson - Drums
Harry Granroth - Guitar
Daniel Johansson - Guitar
Tobias Peterson – Bass

"Death - "The Philosopher"" from Relapse Records



DEATH, the heavy metal institution founded, realized, and helmed by legendary guitarist Chuck Schuldiner, released the Individual Thought Patterns album (the follow-up to their watershed Human release) in 1993. Expectations were high following Human, but Schuldiner proved once again that he could rise to any occasion. Individual Thought Patterns further honed the forward-thinking and progressive direction birthed with Human, and included “The Philosopher”; arguably the best song to ever come from the world of extreme metal and to this date the most widely-recognized. Remixed by DEATH mastering engineer Alan Douches (West West Side), remastered, repackaged and featuring tons of newly unearthed and previously unreleased demo and live tracks, this is the ultimate version of Individual Thought Patterns.

Company presses your ashes into vinyl when you die




By wired.co.uk

Music lovers can now be immortalised when they die by having their ashes baked into vinyl records to leave behind for loved ones.

A UK company called And Vinyly is offering people the chance to press their ashes in a vinyl recording of their own voice, their favourite tunes or their last will and testament. Minimalist audiophiles might want to go for the simple option of having no tunes or voiceover, and simply pressing the ashes into the vinyl to result in pops and crackles.

The company was founded by Jason Leach, who co-founded the techno group and record label Subhead in the 1990s and has since founded a number of other labels, including House of Fix, Daftwerk and Death to Vinyl.

Leach explained to Wired.co.uk that there were a number of factors that made him launch the service, including thinking that he was “getting a bit old” and “might not be invincible”. His mother also started working at a funeral directors, which brought the whole funeral process closer to home. A third prompt was when he saw a TV programme that showed someone in America putting their ashes into fireworks, which made him think about how he might want to be remembered. And, he says, “It’s a bit more interesting than being in a pot on a shelf.”

How does it work?
The process of setting human ashes into vinyl involves a very understanding pressing plant. Basically the ashes must be sprinkled onto the raw piece of vinyl (known as a “biscuit” or “puck”) before it is pressed by the plates. This means that when the plates exert their pressure on the vinyl in order to create the grooves, the ashes are pressed into the record.

The site has a very irreverent style and operates under the strapline "live on from beyond the groove". One of Leach’s family stories, he tells Wired.co.uk, suggests why he has a practical attitude to people’s ashes.

He explains how he went out on a boat with his family members to sprinkle the ashes of his grandfather into the sea. His uncle “released them on the wrong side of the boat and so the ashes went all over us." Apparently the same thing happened to his father, too!

And Vinyly also offers personalised RIV (Rest In Vinyl) artwork -- the simple version just carries your name and your life span, or you can have your portrait painted by artist James Hague, using your ashes mixed into the paint.

The basic package costs £2,000 and comprises of the standard artwork along with up to 30 ash-flecked discs with whatever sounds you choose, lasting a maximum of 24 minutes.

Extras include "Bespook Music", where artists from The House of Fix and www.daftwerk.com write a song especially for you and global distribution of your record in vinyl stores.

The main challenge is choosing the music. Leach says: “It’s difficult to think of what to put on your record because you want it to be the best album you can imagine.”

What would he have on his own record? “I would definitely have a recording of my own voice as well as some 'sound photos' of places that are important to me and then I would have some of my own music on there. It’s something I’m working on.”
