Christageddon Release "I Am Who I Am"
This last week not only saw a new song from Pantokrator, but also we see a new song from Christageddon. An online project, led by Kristian of The Synics Awakening, has brought together musicians from Abated Mass of Flesh, Demonic Extinction, and now Segør from Blood Covenant.
The project has drifted between a few different styles over the years and from how it appears, Segør brings in a heavy symphonic element to the band. Synths that hearken Dimmu Borgir’s own iconic epic symphonic black metal combined with Segør’s own signature guttural snarls and growls create a beautiful yet darkened symphony of holy terror for all who dare to listen and heed the message.… Continued →

Get Uncomfortable With The System is Down Podcast
Dan Smotz (The Dawn Retreat, SMOTZ) has launched his latest installment in what seems to be a never ending sequence of creative project. The System is Down is a podcast focused on all the touchy subjects that tend to set people off, but it is exacted in the form of civil, critical discussion. It’s a promising idea, and, for someone who doesn’t follow podcasts regularly, my interest is certainly piqued.
