Osmose FINALLY got ahold of and re-released the immense Ceremony of Opposites by Samael on wax. It comes with this enormous poster: 

Spoiler

May be an image of text that says 'CEREMONY CEREMONY NY OF OPPOSITES OPPOSITES'

and is in a beautiful glossy gatefold with lyrics, red and black colored vinyl. Go to the above link if you wanna snag it (and the one above that to listen to it). They also have Worship Him and Blood Ritual on LP too, along with some stuff like the demos on CD. AVE SATANAS...

Huh. Not really surprised I guess, i hear about them playing fests sometimes. Weird for a band that have less than two full albums over the course of 25 years or so.

Saw 'em in Detroit seven or eight years ago. They were really, really good.

Apparently that's their swansong too because they're breaking up. Not bad, make three albums in a row of the most crushing and disgusting music possible and be out. No demos, no EPs, no splits, no sticking around past your sell-by date. And honestly, if they'd only put out the one album, that would have probably been enough really.

Havukruunu put out their new album, Tavastland, last week.

I've really, really been looking forward to this one and it fuckin' RULES. Epic Finnish black metal, with a damn near power metal touch. Don't take that in a bad way, it's just that this shit is gonna rally the troops and make you wanna ride a black dragon. Lots of choral chanting and riffs EVERYWHERE.

Listening to the Battlezone albums on spotify I can't help but feel that rather than continuing the style of two first two Iron Maiden albums Paul Dianno try's to show the world what it would have been like if he sang on Powerslave and NOTB. There's nothing really bad about the albums but the most notable thing is that the singer used to be in maiden

On a similar tip, I listened to Atomkraft with Demolition Man, the guy who replaced Cronos in Venom and man... not good. He was great when I saw him in Venom, Inc.! He's fine on Prime Evil (and sounds just like Cronos)! But he suuuuuucks on their Future Warriors album, like actively makes them unlistenable. Apparently he was a friend of Mantas, which is still an odd basis on which to hire a singer.

I like the songs he did as the front man in Venom Blacken are the Priests and Prime Evil. But he was great doing the early stuff in Venom Inc
