There has been a change of plans. Instead of being my last review of 2012, Darkend will be my first review of 2013. I will be focusing on my top 10 in order to hopefully post it between christmas and new year.

Greeting ...

Darkend

Feel like reviewing a release from Vixenta? If so, PM Me!

I'll review anything I can get my hands on

Do you take digital copies? Easier, faster and cheaper.

Yup

Blog update:
Italy's Dark End, though their name may be a bit unoriginal, have delivered what is in my eyes one of the best symphonic black metal albums in years. The review's a bit longer than usual, but there's a lot of ground to cover!

Hey Zerberus, care to review Gatling's full-length? The bandcamp link is gatlingonline.bandcamp.com, where you can hear all the tracks and see the artwork.

Blog update:

Who says brits can't make decent black metal? If you are one of the disbelievers you need to listen to Nordland, which despite the name isn't just some Bathory clone

Yeah, but they have close to 3000 fans on facebook, so someone's gotta like them

There's a story behind those likes... Hehe.

Every thrash band on Earth has like.. 3000 fans on facebook haha.

True, many thrash bands do seem to have more fans than they deserve on facebook

Beastwars

http://gouls-crypt.blogspot.dk/

Blog update:

So this is the first time I'm reviewing a hardcore band. Melodic hardcore, no less. FROM TURKEY.

Next up:
Bloodwraith

http://gouls-crypt.blogspot.dk/

Blog update:

There's always room for a little black metal, right? Right. The American old school black metal band Bloodwraith are out with their first album, "As Above, So Below" from 2012

Next up:
Warg

http://gouls-crypt.blogspot.dk/

Blog update:

There's good music, there's okay music, there's bad music and then there is Lamia Hyde and the Southern Witches. A band that, despite its name, consists of a single person who hasn't got a single speck of talent in his entire body. There's a youtube video in review if you don't believe me.

Next up:
Agamotto - Agamotto

http://gouls-crypt.blogspot.dk/

Wow, you weren't kidding about Lamia Hyde and the Southern Witches. That has to be the sloppiest guitar playing/artwork I have heard or seen on something made public and everything else isn't far off from that. If it isn't a joke, I hope the guy keeps working on improving.

Blog update:

After last time's horrible efforts this week's review serves as a reminder that it's possible to make good music. Italy's ambient/noise project Agamotto deliver an effort of 6/10 guitars on their self-titled opus.

Only a Shadow Remains

Manifestor - Old Monster

http://gouls-crypt.blogspot.dk/

The Swedish duo Manifestor's face-melting concoction of poisonous death/thrash/grind will fuck you up and kill you. And in mean that in a positive way.
