New Metal Releases From Malaysia. no comments

I got some time in my hand so I shall post some random news here.

VISITANT - The Sword Without Eyes EP (Celestial Frequency)

A melodic death metal quartet from Kuantan Pahang. Formed in 1996, the band was reformed in 2008 after an 8 year of hiatus since the year 2000. The production quality is top notch, the playing is superb plus the 4 songs are extremely melodic and headbangable. I guess, if you worship Kalmah especially the For The Revolution album to be exact, you will definitely like this. Order your copy at their facebook page. RM15/USD12.

SILENT DEATH - Silent Kiss of Death Album (Neo Magik)

Finally! The long awaited and most anticipated album of the year and it has now been unleashed. The second full length from Malaysia's legendary death metal band. I guess it is worth the way. The production quality is very very impressive. 9 solid modern death metal tracks and by modern, I mean, groovy, crunchy, part melodic part brutal and aggressive. If you like death metal, you will want to have this. Order your copy at their facebook page. RM21/ask for the price for elsewhere.

VOCIFERATION ETERNITY / NEKRAD - Dragonia Pegaso Split (Metamorphic/Khakan)

This split was released late last year but it is in my opinion, a relatively new release. 4 splendid tracks by each respective band and again, I have to say that the quality is very impressive. I have always loved Vociferation Eternity, a legend in its own Dark Death Metal league. Beautiful melodies for the riffs had always been a strong point with Vociferation Eternity, whereas the not so new but recently rejuvinated Nekrad would give Goth Metal lovers wet dreams. Order your copy at their facebook page. RM20/ask price for elsewhere.

Rants: Thrashing Kuala Lumpur. no comments

1. I changed the blog layout in the hopes that it shall inspire me to regularly update this helluva blog. I suck. But hey, it looks cleaner and minimal and dark and metal. The way I like it best.

2. Ive gotta tell you that I am super excited to go and watch, Cromok, my favorite Malaysian metal band of all time performing live next month at Thrashing Kuala Lumpur. Got the tickets already eventhough my friend only managed to get us the RM90 ones whereas I would have preferred the more expensive one. 

3. I am not a frequent gig goer and its fuckin Cromok with the original Forever In Time/Yours Truly line up. So it is a big deal to me. This was THE band that made me fell in love with heavy metal. A fucking big deal.

4. So, I guess I'll see you there then.

Rants: The ultimate rant on Metalcore. 2 comments

1. Well, in a nutshell, I finally have my peace with metalcore music. I do not think that I will ever be a fan in any time soon but at least I have now learnt not to hate it anymore. Metalcore, deathcore, moshcore or what ever crap the kids are calling it these days, i have come to realize that it's just music.

2. Malaysian kids loved their metalcore especially the younger generation of extreme music lovers. Go and have fun with your music. As long as you are loving it, it's fine with me. It is not for me to negatively judge whatever you kids are listening to nowadays. Go and have fun. It is just music anyway.
