The Best of 1997: Favorite Hits From 20 Years Ago
Yep, the list you’ve all been waiting for (not really) is finally here. Feel free to offer up some laughs and critical remarks for the music I listened to the most 20 years ago. You’ll notice a heavy T&N presence and I just couldn’t help myself. There were a lot of albums and releases I found myself spinning back then and still getting plays today. I think that’s where this list falls in place, it’s the albums that had the longest lasting impact with me and had a catchy sound that I just couldn’t get enough of.… Continued →

Phil Chamberlain: We took a few years off to pursue matters in our personal lives so when we got back together in 2016 we kind of exploded out a ton of music in a short amount of time.… Continued →

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.

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 →
