Rants - As Sahar and 7 Sinners. no comments

1- I am currently listening to Helloween's new much anticipated no.15 Studio album, the long overdue 7 Sinners. It is an Ok record I guess. Although the chugs were heavy as hell (as heavy as Better Than Raw if not heavier), I think it was too pop for me. I Still love it though maybe it wont be as much as I have loved their second album with Andi Deris, Time of the Oath. Oh I love that album so much. Well, you go download Helloween 7 Sinners HERE. If you happen to get this album, try and give track no.6, Long Live The King, a proper listen. I like that song for its typical thrashy riff that you can get off from any Bay Area Thrash bands.

2- Whats new? The pioneer of Eastern Black Metal, As Sahar will be re-releasing its debut album, Phenomistik some where in late December this year I guess. This album was one of the first few landmark albums that helped shape and inject the local Black Metal Scene with something original and something to call their own. Awesome. The re-release will be in a digi-pack Compact Disc format and will limited to 500 copies only. Go and order your copy HERE. If you order early enough, you will be getting extra goodies. Hurry up.

Rants - The Malaysia Metal. 2 comments

1- Whats up. I have yet to find the time to update this blog properly but do not worry because hopefully by next week, I will try and get this blog started again. Yeah, maybe the guilt seeing this blog still manages to pull a lot of viewers. Even with the no update what so ever, I still got like 1000++ viewers for last month alone and a lot (half) of them were from outside of Malaysia. I guess my objective to promote Malaysian Heavy Metal to the world is in full swing after all.

2- With out any doubt people out there were more interested with the download section. I guess after this I will be putting a few more good albums for you. There is no better ways to promote Malaysian metal music then giving you ear candies for you to listen and evaluate. We walk the talk around here. Hopefully the previously uploaded albums of Silent Death and Sil Khannaz had give you some ideas about Malaysian Heavy Metal.

3- To the Malaysian Metal maniacs, if you know any good metal bands out there, kindly inform me here. Sometimes I am just too lazy to browse myspace to check out them bands.

Rant - The lack of update: 3 comments

1- I would like to apologize for not updating this blog for quite a while now. Why? Because having to operate on too many blogs will eventually make you lazy and in case you are wondering, I am a lazy SOB.

2- Well basically, Ive just released my long time Hardcore Punk Fanzine Abstained Agogo Fanzine last month after 7 years of hiatus. Compiling articles, doing interviews and attending to the postal orders made my schedule a bit hectic. Its worth it though. Got it sold for nearly 100 hundred copies now.

3- I am also busy with another new blog on Nasyid music. Yes I am an all rounder and I try to get myself involved to the core of the music that I like very much like how I keep myself abreast with the mighty Metal scene and the harmony vocal scene. If you like to see me goof around you can visit that other blog: www.nasyidcafe.blogspot.com

4- Whats new? Sil Khannaz premiered their newest song during that Total War gig. Silent Death will be releasing their long awaited album soon. Malaysian gothic black metal band Halun have just released an album I think. Ok, maybe I should do a proper entry because this entry sucked too much. Ill be back!
