MassfreeKid Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I know this is probably the wrong place to post this, but I do it anyway in case anyone might be interested. The Deathtrip will finally be releasing their first album after years of preparation. Old-school black metal all the way through, mixed and produced by Snorre Ruch (Thorns), with Aldrahn (Dødheimsgard, Thorns) on vocals and Host (manager at Peaceville Records) making all the music. This should be interesting to all nostalgic BM heads out there. http://newnoisemagazine.com/deathtrip-set-release-date-svart-records-debut/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Jan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Nah, a good place I'd say, thanks for the heads up! Good crew behind him that should make this very interesting (although, I'd rather have a new Thorns album). No samples or anything yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassfreeKid Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Samples should be coming soon. The new Thorns is almost finished. He took The Deathtrip under his wing to relax from Thorns for a while I guess hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Jan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Really? New Thorns is imminent? That's great news! Haven't been following that whole scene for a while... New Dødheimsgard would be cool too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassfreeKid Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 It will all come out almost simultaneously. New Dødheimsgard is all finished and recorded. Vicotnik is giving the final touches to the mix. I'd guess early 2015. It was supposed to be out in october 2013 haha. But Vicotnik and Snorre are like Aphex, they are perfectionists and they compose A LOT of material, so it takes them years to finish an album.

Herr Jan Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Dang! MassFreeKid, bringer of good news. Thanks man, this is getting me all excited about that stuff again. I recently heard that Thorns album in a bar I was in and I completely forgot how good that album was. Same goes for Supervillian Outcast. This Deathtrip will be a lot less experimental then those from what I can read though :) but I'm still curious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassfreeKid Posted September 25, 2014 Author Share Posted September 25, 2014 Yes, less experimental indeed! It's really just trying to capture that old-school BM feeling of the 90's through the perspective these old-timers have today. Don't expect it to rewrite the rules. But the new Dødheimsgard, on the other hand, is a beast of its own. ;) Long time Dhg fan here hehe so I'm sold. The 2001 Thorns album is still good even to this day, I agree! Most of the songs stood the test of time for me. Original riffing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassfreeKid Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 @Herr Jan, I've actually listened to Deep drone master and I think it's great. Very old-school indeed, but sonically interesting if you can stomach Aldrahn's vocals, which really are at the center of this album. His first one since Thorns in 2001. Love his performance, very lugubrious and intense. And the music is back to the basics BM with a good touch of fuzz magic. Snorre gave it a very analogue production. Any bands you've been into lately? I take it you're a Darkthrone fan? "Fenriz approved". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't listen to a lot of black metal anymore (I was a huge fan back in the day), but once in a blue moon I tend to have the most primitive oldschool shit on, so this sounds perfect! And yeah, his vocals are really top notch, can't miss :) As for the stuff I dó listen, I'm mostly into Lugubrum - which has always been my fave blekk metle group (Darkthrone right after). I get tired of black metal pretty quickly these days, but I can listen to their albums over and over for about 12 years now. Besides that I'm more into bands like Virus (huge fan here), The Devil's Blood, Jex Thoth, that whole scene. I also have a few mates who constantly update me on black metal stuff like Ash Borer, Deafheaven, Occultation / Negative Plane, which is all pretty good stuff too but nothing mindblowing. The most interesting discovery I did was one that our own triachus told me about - a one man band called Botanist that only uses drums, a dulcimer + vocals yelling about how humanity will be destroyed be evil plants who will take over the world: You still rocking the black metal scene?

MassfreeKid Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 Hey Herr :) Sorry for my late answer. Here's an interview you might find interesting... http://www.massfreemedia.com/archives/the-forever-now/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassfreeKid Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'm still rocking it for sure, but only once in a while. I kind of grew up on BM so it will always be part of my interests, but it has to be different, otherwise I'm like you, I get bored easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
