Darkness Falls...



Prelude...

Greetings from the Darkness.  It is time for the shadows to fall as infinity 
dimly fades into eternity, as we enter the epoch of a new Dark Age.  Let us 
enter STRANGER AEONS.  Enjoy, tribes of chaos.  Hail Darkness, and God.

Again, there were delays.  I won't bore you with that.  There will be a 
reward for your patience, there are again extra reviews for your enjoyment 
and enlightenment.  Grit your teeth, and DARE it!  Grim journeys...  

There was no June 2000 issue.    

In the news***

DRAIN S.T.H., the Swedish Metal all female group, has broken up.  It's a 
shame, they were as pleasant to the eyes as they were to the ears.  Good luck 
to them on their future ventures.  

SPINESHANK is wrapping up their next record.  

FEAR FACTORY is hammering out their next opus, hopefully to be released by 
Halloween.  

VIKING CROWN, featuring Anton Crowley [a.k.a. Phil Anselmo], has released 
their new CD on Necropolis Records.  It is named "Innocence From Hell," and 
this is some of the creepiest and coolest Black Metal I've ever heard.  This 
is a must!  Besides VIKING CROWN, Crowley is also in the bands NECROPHAGIA 
[Deathgore Metal] and CHRIST INVERSION [Black Metal].  

KONKHRA has released their new opus "Come Down Cold."  This is the follow-up 
to their "Freakshow" EP, and it is a scorcher.  Be prepared for a style 
change, but it is still cool.  Picture a Southern Rock groove added to their 
Deathrock crunch.  

TAPROOT's new CD, called "Gift," is out.  Be careful, there is an edited 
version.  

Keep your ears open for a new Aggro Metal band called MUDVAYNE.  They are 
currently on the Tatoo The Earth Tour with such acts as SLIPKNOT, COLD, 
SEVENDUST, WORKHORSE MOVEMENT, etc.  

The forthcoming SOULFLY CD is called "Primitive."  

Fans of the much missed band ACID BATH may want to try the two bands formed 
from the remnants of that legendary Louisiana outfit.  After the tragic death 
of Audie Pitre, two members formed a band called AGENTS OF OBLIVION.  The 
other remaining member formed a Black Death Metal band called GOATWHORE.  
Both acts are signed to Rotten Records.  I miss ACID BATH...    

USURPER will be issuing a Cd of rarities and demo material named "Visions 
From The Gods" (from the demo of the same title).  USURPER plays manic but 
masterfully slashed Death Metal that obliterates.  I've heard it, and it is 
really cool.  

BOILER ROOM has released a new CD on Roadrunner Records, titled "Can't 
Breathe."  

Expect several reissues from the Classic Metal band NAZARETH.  

FIFTH ANGEL's first 2 releases, including their self-titled work, will be 
reissued by Collectables Records.    

Among the other terrors in this issue are REVIEWS of the following albums:


        EARTH CRISIS..................."Slither"      
        PROJECT HATE..................."Super Sonic Cyber Christ"  
        GOTHIC SEX....................."Rarities"    
        MENTAL HOME...................."Upon the Shores of Inner Seas"  
        DIABOLIC......................."Supreme Evil"      
        RAISE HELL....................."Not Dead Yet"  
        GLASSJAW......................."Everything You Ever Wanted To 
                                             Know About Silence"  
        RIVER CITY REBELS.............."Racism, Religion And War"  

         
These are CDs that are sworn to brutalize without any tinge remorse, or mercy 
for that matter.  I offer only the best, never anything less.    

Welcome to Stranger Aeons.  These days are strange...  Farewell.

            crushing vibe.]

            brutalizes.]

            and brilliant edge.]  
10.   "Spreading The Message" by Pandemia [Fast, brutal Death Metal.  What
            else needs to be said?]

Earth Crisis is Hardcore.  It is by their definition that true modern 
Straight Edge Hardcore is written in stone.  Taking sheer brutality, creative 
genius, and a solid ethos they have burned a long shadow by which most Punk 
bands are fully eclipsed.  Their latest opus, called "Slither" [Victory 
Records], is the best to date combining fierce Crusty Punk with clean vocals 
and Industrial elements.  This forging created a brutal yet tempered style 
that sinks in the hooks and rips you inside out.    

This is Straight EDGE with a new aggression--explosive, brutal, and crusty as 
a new scar.  Excellent!  The songs that I enjoyed the most were the massive 
and bombastic cut "Slither," "Nemesis," "Arc Of Descent," "Agress," and 
"Mechanism."  But they all kick!  

In conclusion, there are only 2 words that need to be said...EARTH CRISIS.  
Everything else is a mere illusion.  Farewell.

                "'Cyber Sonic Super Christ' by The Project Hate"

Sometimes life can be a real kick in the face.  Ever wanted a soundtrack for 
those times when you're melancholy and aggressive?  Then the new Project Hate 
CD, titled "Cyber Sonic Super Christ" [Pavement Records], should put the roar 
in your anger.  

The Project Hate is the killer side project band of Tomas Skogsberg 
[Entombed], and their style takes visceral Gothic Death Metal and adds 
elements of Black Metal.  The sound is visceral-deep growls drilling through 
heavy Gothic guitar sludge and manic rhythms, which are then backed by 
powerful, angelic female vocals.  The fusion is both beautiful and fierce, 
blasting a burned wasteland in its sonic wake.  

The most ferocious and moody cuts work the best.  These include "Oceans Of 
Seemingly Endless Bleeding," "With Desperate Hands So Numb," "The Divine 
Burning Of Angels," "Soul Infliction," and "Shape, Memory, Murder."  But 
every track is good.  

In conclusion, this is a really cool and unusual release.  Add some mean 
melancholy to your day.  Farewell.

                          "'Rarities' by Gothic Sex"
                                     by
                               Bill Vogel III

Upon the great road of mysteries, there are things that are both wondrous and 
strange...beautiful and freakish.  Such dynamics leave us in awe, as well as 
bleakly inspired.  Gothic Metal is such a paradox, and one of its most 
unusual examples is the band Gothic Sex.  Their new CD, titled "Rarities" 
[Repulse Records], is itself a universal oddity featuring studio material, 
live cuts, and a cover tune.  

The freakshow that this band is makes me love them all the more.  Their style 
mixes Gothic Metal with ever so slight elements of Death Metal (some lightly 
growled vocals) and strange higher ranged vocals in the background that grind 
against the Goth gloominess.  For the most part the leading vocals are in the 
deep Gothic style, and add the essential mood for the down, dark guitars and 
depressed rhythms.  The synergy works well, creating a totally devastating 
soundscape.  I enjoyed it, especially with that unique vibe of dread.    

Out of the 4 studio cuts, the best ones were "The Book Of Shadows" and "I 
Lost My Faith."  The live tracks, while having minimal production, are very 
cool.  These 7 live tracks possess a visceral charm that snares the 
listener's full attention.  The best ones are "Abyss Of Glory," "Nightbreed 
In Midian," "Alone In The Dark," and "Voodoo Dolly."  

And as an added temptation, there is an absolutely morbid cover of W.A.S.P.'s 
"Wild Child."  It's live, it's psycho, and it is killer.  

Overall, this is a release meant for fans of Gothic Metal, Gothic Sex, and/or 
anyone who enjoys the darker curiosities of this existence.  Stay Dark.  
Farewell.

If you like your Metal on the avant-garde side, then this one may be for you. 
 The new CD by Russian Doomdeathers Mental Home, titled "Upon the Shores of 
Inner Seas" [The End Records/Century Media], mixes artsy elements of Goth and 
Classic Metal into their roar.  The result is a softer, yet still satisfying 
brand of Dark/Doomdeath Metal that somewhat verges the gulf between the Cure 
and Cemetary.  It is unique and heavy.  

The songs which seemed to work the best were "Late to Revise," "Bliss," and 
"Stained."  Other noteworthy cuts were the melancholic "Downstairs" and 
"Amidst The Waves '99."  Mental Home adds elements such as organs, Goth 
vocals, and classical instrumentation to their Doom drenched sound.  

Overall, it's an unusual as well as interesting trip through the dark heart 
of an Eastern European band.  If aggression alone will not appease you, then 
give Mental Home a try.  Farewell.

A real rarity these days is to hear a great Florida Style Death Metal band, 
with all the praises falling so easily on acts such as Emperor and Dimmu 
Borgir.  But there some such as the ferocious Diabolic, whose new album is 
called "Supreme Evil" [Conquest Records], that recall bands such as 
Suffocation and Pestilence to sever trendy flesh into a bloody mess.  
Diabolic's guitar riffing is fast, loopy, and loose enough to add some sweet 
chaos to the din of growls and penetrating rhythms.  The synergy of rage is 
backbreaking, and really crunchy.  

Songs of exemplary note include the vicious "Insacred," the guttural quake of 
"Ancient Hatred," and the beautifully malicious "Dwelling Spirits."  The ten 
tracks are a brutal journey that I truly enjoyed.  I was wrecked.  

Overall, this is a face-ripping, mind crushing experience that should not be 
missed.  Get it.  Stay evil.  Farewell.

July 12, 2000 A.D.


The follow-up release by Raise Hell, titled "Not Dead Yet" [Nuclear Blast 
Records], is a relentless assault on the senses.  Mixing blistering guitar 
riffs, shrill growls of the Old School Style of Death Metal, and hook tinged 
rhythms...they have created an opus that tempers ferocity with the subtle art 
of mechanical precision.  The result is a heavy, yet catchy, CD with a unique 
edge.  

Raise Hell makes Death Metal like few other acts, taking the guttural angst 
of greats like Kreator, Sodom, and Deceased and stitching in the brutal 
groove of Deathrock masters like Entombed and Konkhra.  It works well, but 
without diluting their primal aggression.  

The songs that I most enjoyed include the tenacious "Not Dead Yet," "Babes," 
and the visceral rampage "Dance With The Devil."  Other really wicked cuts 
were "Soulcollector" and "No Puls."  Each was a vicious masterpiece.  

In summary, this is a roaring slab of German Style [a.k.a. Old School] Death 
Metal that is sure to please and pummel.  Stay evil.  Farewell.

The latest offering from the Roadrunner Records barrage of artistic ferocity 
comes from the band GlassJaw.  Their debut CD, titled "Everything You Ever 
Wanted To Know About Silence," is a Moodcore Metal pummeling with a dazzling 
twist...they don't sound like Korn.  GlassJaw's technique is one of subtle 
popular eclecticism-mixing styles such as Moodcore, Aggro guitar crunch, 
smooth yet angry Alternative vocals, Techno, and bursting tempo changes.  It 
seems like a recipe for disaster, but GlassJaw pulls it off cleverly.  Think 
of it as the Cold Fusion of Metal.  

Tracks vary in intensity, but all at least have some edge and crunch.  My 
favorites are "Lovebites And Razorlines," "When One Eight Becomes Two Zeros," 
and "Siberian Kiss."  Another killer cut is the opener, "Pretty Lush."  

In summation, it kicks.  Anyone who digs the Deftones, Kittie, and Slipknot 
will enjoy GlassJaw.  You can sharpen your teeth on this one.  Farewell.

               "'Racism, Religion and War' by River City Rebels"

Ska is an acquired taste, and it is all too often to wimpy for me.  But the 
River City Rebels are different, and better, than most of the current Ska 
acts.  Their new CD, titled "Racism, Religion and War" [Victory Records], 
takes Ska into the realm of Hardcore Punk creating a jagged hybrid that 
leaves conventional Ska bleeding, abused, and mangled on the floor.  

It's a subtle art-brutalizing something without destroying it.  But the River 
City Rebels succeed, slamming crunchy Hardcore riffs and vocals into massive 
Jazzy horn sections.  It all balances well, even when the horns are overdone. 
   

Songs of clearly vicious note include the jaggedly jazzy "Hate," the riotous 
"We Will Fight," and "He She It."  Other kickin' songs include "Country Is 
Doomed," "Corporate America," and "Make A Stand."  Imagine the Mighty Mighty 
Bosstones being molested by Motorhead, and you'll roughly get the picture.  

Overall, it's cool, it's different, and it's heavy.  What more impetus do you 
need?  Later.
