khost is an industrial doom metal duo from Birmingham, UK, but it has been named after a city and a region in Afghanistan. An EP titled Needles Into The Ground will be released soon on Cold Spring Records with three songs from their latest album which have been de/re-constructed by Justin K. Broadrick of Godflesh, and one unreleased song.

Yes, this is metal, but literally.

Godflesh is one of the most influential industrial/drone metal bands. It was founded by Justin K. Broadrick (who was the guitarist of Napalm Death in 1985-86) and G.C. Green in 1988. The band dissolved in 2002, and reformed in 2009.

Justin Broadrick (1985-86: guitar) grew up in a hippie commune. He was about 8 when he heard Lou Reed’s Metal Machine Music at first. After Napalm Death he was influenced by 80s hip-hop sound and acid house. His other bands: Final (power electronics, dark ambient, founded in 1982),  Techno Animal (industrial hip-hop with Kevin Martin from GOD, 1991), Jesu (post-metal, 2003), Pale Sketcher (“shoegazy dream-pop that’s almost techno”, 2010) and more

BAPHOMET’S BLOOD is an Italian speed metal band. Here is the last song of their forthcoming album In Satan We Trust

Merő képtelenség, hogy egy olasz metál banda feldolgozza egy magyar hard rock együttes 1986-ban kislemezen megjelent számát, szövegét angolra fordítsa, és lemezen kiadja 2016-ban

With this a plumb nonsense has come true. Because it’s a cover of a short-lived Hungarian hard rock band Fáraó‘s song, which was released in 1986 as a single. And this was the only record of the band. I’ve asked them what is the story behind the cover.

A hogy-hogy kérdésre a banda frontembere, Halálhányásterror Viktor válaszol

Vittorio Necrovomiterror: I love Hungary and Hungarian metal scene!!!!! I am a vinyl collector and finally I’ve found the 7″ of Farao!!!! Completely obessesed by that band!!!! We release the cover in English on the new LP!!

Yes, the lyrics is translation of the original!

Szóval Vittorio annyira a szám hatása alá került, hogy a dal szövegét is lefordíttatta! A feldolgozás a banda Mi a Sátánban hiszünk című lemezén jelenik meg e hó 25-én. Kiadja a német Vas Csontfej Produkció. Meg akarod hallgatni a teljes lemezt?

In Satan We Trust will be released by Iron Bonehead Productions on January 25th. You can listen to the full album. But “If you want to listen [to] Baphomet’s Blood, buy a turntable, a bottle of Jim Beam bourbon whiskey and worship Satan!” – said Vittorio in an interview.

It was a huge surprise. When I have got the records of Aversion To Focus from Nyíregyhaza, Hungary. I have known that there something was in the making. But it was under construction for years. And it would be awesome Meshuggah influenced industrial metal, or ultra hard grind rock:

another drop

Aversion To Focus is a duo of FFR – making the music, previously played on bass in UnfitAss, a death later modern metal band – and Gabor, the vocalist from the recently disbanded crust/grind band Human Error.

The album Overflow Of Nothing is coming soon.

heavy weight industrial black metal with a little grey

„Beyond the Realms of Dream, That Fleeting Shade Under the Corpus of Vanity”

from the second collaborative album of two really heavy metal bands, the body and Thou, „You, Whom I Have Always Hated” on Thrill Jockey Records

On the highly anticipated Wednesday night of the 4th of February, Seattle-based drone metal pioneers Earth are finally playing live in Budapest. The mainly instrumental band is touring with their new album, Primitive and Deadly

the first ever piece of their extensive discography to include vocals by Mark Lanegan and Rabia Shaneen Quazi, however, having seen them live last year in Vienna, I think I can safely say that the those who are more fond of previous albums will not be disappointed either. What to be expected is minimalistic, meditative, and seemingly neverending songs, a signature guitar sound, slow tempos, long sustained notes, and the simply beautiful, country, jazz and folk-inspired guitar melodies of Dylan Carlson.

I sure hope it’s going to be loud as hell, too.

It’s highly recommended to get there in time for the support bands: an exciting noise duo by the name of Black Spirituals, and former Earth-member Don McGreevy, presently contributing to the brilliant experimental psych-folk group Master Musicians of Bukkake.

It’s all happening next Wednesday on A38, get your tickets at the website.

Mr. Marcaille took me unaware. When it was written that is a drum’n’cello band, I thought of something totally different as The Exploited

kill! kill! kill! album on Tandori Records (France)

You, Whom I Have Always Hated is the second collaborative album of two really heavy metal bands, the body and Thou. Nine Inch Nails cover: Terrible Lie

LP or CD with both collaborative albums on Thrill Jockey Records (US)
