my guess would be that they are slime moulds or some thing similar can some one translate the page for us?

That google translation is quite ok, but if you want, I can translate you the whole thing a bit better.

Don't know how the rest of the ward preceives them but Inade's new album is very nice indeed. Unsettling at times, spacey (like a cross between Nordvagr's 'Interstellar' and RAAN's 'The Nacrasti') and even occasionally brings to mind 'Urfe' to my ears!

Track 7 from the new Terrorizer History of Black Metal CD- Vulvark- In the centre of the Black Hall is pretty immense. I ordered the album in the hope the other tracks are as good. It's limited to only 250 copies in the name of being tr00 or something.

Have you guys ever heard of Navicon Torture Technologies? This is unique power electronics (though you can hear death industrial and power noise occasionally in some of the tracks) from USA. Something disturbing and meditating at the same time. Surreal, psychotic, depraved, not to mention how dark it is. The latest The Gospels of the Gash album is highly recommended (previous works as well. All of them...). Great epitome of filth.

Cool stuff

Anyone faintly interested in Black Metal needs to hear it! It's that good. It also helps I received copy number 001 of 250. That's never happened to me before! |

It's good to see people who actually /know/ of the stuff that I listen to.
I skimmed through this thread to make sure it hadn't already been mentioned, and was glad to find no one has mentioned Njiqahdda (or Njiijn)...a couple of guys from Illinois in the States. They've been churning out material near-constantly since 2006, and I've yet to come across anything quite like them (though certainly not in the same realm as Axis).
Encyclopaedia Metallum describes them as "Atmospheric Black Metal/Psychedelic Rock/Ambient"... so most of you would probably develop appreciation pretty fast.

I'm not sure what I make of them just yet. Their sound is certainly interesting, but some aspects of it sound a bit rushed which I suspect is to do with their extremely high turnover of output. I tend to be suspicious of incredibly prolific artists just for that reason, because quality control tends to be a bit lax. For example, I think Xasthur could have had two or three incredible albums in his discography had he been tougher on himself. As it is I think he's totally devalued his artistic currency over years of seriously patchy and bloated releases.
In this area of metal, Agalloch are my stand-out favourites and I think it's partly because they pay their material such meticulous care and attention and take their time to get everything "just so", even if it means lengthy pauses between albums. I'll give Njiqahdda more time though because they clearly have plenty of good ideas.

My first experience with Njiqahdda was "Nji. Njiijn. Njiiijn." The tracks on that album were all solid. The only real issue that I've found with their [older] material is that there's no vocal presence; normally this wouldn't bother me since I've trained myself to mostly disregard lyrical content... but this stuff necessitates at least some spoken element, even if it's wordless.
Never cared much for Xasthur.

How about Sunn O))), ever heard anything by those guys? That's some pretty monolithic stuff.

Kenji Siratori - Chaos Impregnation (2007)
Hyper collaborative man from Japan who did shitload of releases. Some of that stuff is neat and some just stinks. And this one is really cool. Sparse and low darkbient. Nothing extraordinary but sets a right vibe. I guess this release could go as recommendation within these chambers as well.
Des Esseintes - Les Diabloques (2005)
Very interesting Swedish industrial by Magnus Sundström (The Protagonist, Megaptera). It is dark and cinematic at times even haunting a bit. His compilation Mondo Macabro cd kick some serious ass as well. Strange that i didn't mentioned this project few years ago. It is extremely good stuff. Highly recommended.

Gorguts and Portal will be playing a show a few hours away from me in may, the fact that I cannot get that time off from work is very disappointing.
