Order on iTunes: nblast.de/DimmuBorgirEonianIT

Shagrath (Official) / Silenoz (Official)

With over 1.3 million YouTube-views on the first single "Interdimensional Summit," Norwegian devils Dimmu Borgir have proved that they are back for good after over 7 years of silence. On May 4th, the symphonic black metal masters will deliver the new full-length album, EONIAN. Today, the band unveil the second single with a stunning music video.
The experimental, folkloristic "Council of Wolves And Snakes" is risking a look far beyond the horizon and proves that the band follows 'no formula, no absolute', as Silenoz (Official) vows, and shows that the path sometimes guides them to places they would have never expected to end up when they started their journey.

Vocalist Shagrath (Official) states: "It's a song that sticks out from the rest of the album, it's DIMMU BORGIR going into an experimental direction, but you can also find a lot of black metal inspiration in the middle section of the song. We are a band that has never been afraid of trying out new directions and artistically this is surely a very interesting and different track."
Order the album at www.dimmu-borgir.com.

Today, Osmose Productions reveals the cover and tracklisting for Vanhelga's highly anticipated fifth album, Fredagsmys, which is set for international release on June 29th on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.
True to their own words, their fifth full-length - and first for Osmose - is the continuing exploration of the darker sides of reality and another experiment in how to find its purest expression: using sarcasm combined with overall schizophrenic mood changes between pitch-black hopelessness and cheerful euphoria, but still keeping a level of seriousness Vanhelga has come to be a force to be reckoned with.

First track sample to be revealed shortly.
- Tracklist -
1. Sömnparalys
2. Psykotisk självinsikt
3. Varde mörker
4. Ensam mot alla
5. Förpassad till misär
6. Två blir ett
7. Keep the window closed
8. RIP (Relationship in pieces)
9. Feels like breathing in sulfur
10. You are temporary
11. Fredagsmys

INQUISITION: " With my fullest respect to you, please read my statement Metalsucks had told me they would publish: I made a very unwise choice of actions in 2007 which got me into some legal problems. After the investigation was conducted, a year and a half later after the initial charges, the original charges brought against me were dropped and a plea deal was presented to me. The investigation determined I did not have anything that fell under the original charge."

Seattle, Washington/Columbia based black warriors INQUISITION have posted the below statement regarding vocalist DAGON'S previous criminal charges.









INQUISITION unleashed "BLOODSHED ACROSS THE EMPYREAN ALTAR BEYOND THE CELESTIAL ZENITH", 8/26/2016 via SEASON OF MIST.



FROM INQUISITION:
Inquisition extends its appreciation to all fans and individuals who have supported us throughtout its career. A thank you will never be enough to express our level of regard to you.
Inquisition has been dropped from the Satyricon tour.
Inquisition will continue; in the mean time we respect everones position and will allow time to control the chaos over its own horizons into its own order.

Once again our greatest level of appreciation to you.

To all fans, supporters and close ones, I would like to clarify some horrific misinformation generated by the webzine Metalsucks of a personal matter of mine in 2007: First you must take into account, everything Metalsucks published is taken from court documents that state charges and accusations rather than what was proven or admitted in 2007. Second, I never plead guilty to the charges and the original charges were dropped after the courts examined all evidence. I am not a sex offender, and I was absolutely innocent of all charges. The plea bargain was something the prosecutor insisted on and for the defense was the best option to end a lengthy legal process. Also, the background check webpage circulating is not entirely correct, it is definitely not showing what the Police background check would show you.

With my fullest respect to you, please read my statement Metalsucks had told me they would publish:
I made a very unwise choice of actions in 2007 which got me into some legal problems. After the investigation was conducted, a year and a half later after the initial charges, the original charges brought against me were dropped and a plea deal was presented to me. The investigation determined I did not have anything that fell under the original charge.
The police report suggested I had deleted and obstructed evidence which I deny to have done, however the obstruction charge was still part of the plea deal as was the other charge mentioned in this article. That second charge is related to viewing pornography in a public area, and again was taken as part of the plea deal. To be clear, I have no sex crimes, this did not involve any other person other than myself and I have moved forward since 2009 while having complied with all aspects of the law.
I wish to remain focused on my music and my absolute dedication to the art of Black Metal. Despite any personal views and judgements the followers and supporters of our music may have, I am a somewhat private person and have never cared for destructive sensationalism and keeping what I feel is private, private.
I hope my level of transparency is understood and I thank you, as always for having been so supportive of Inquisition.
With much respect to you,
Dagon

ITP V.018 UPDATE 3/28/2018 BBL WITH MORE EXTREME METAL NEWS

OK. I know I haven't posted on ITP V.018 for some time, nor anywhere for some time. I'm busy dealing with an annoying health condition, benign positional vertigo or menaires disease. So I wanted to resolve that. Plus I've existed longer than the internet. LOL. 

 https://www.webmd.com/brain/benign-paroxysmal-positional-vertigo#1
 https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/menieres-disease/symptoms-causes/syc-20374910

Sounds like there is still negativity in the extreme metal scene. Decapitated posted something, Watain are seig heling, Inquisition are busted for bad stuff and child porn and dropped off the Satyricon tour????

Is this true? I'm shocked. 

That's what metal sucks said, and yes, they suck too. 
Let's focus on music, not rumors. 

I'm not missing anything. I'll be back when I feel better..

BTW..I'm proud of the students whom formed a mass demonstration "MARCH FOR OUR LIVES" (against gun violence and legislating gun control laws here in the U.S.A.)  last Saturday. 
Your voices are heard, and those of who us who can vote have considered your opinion.  
Because 9 out of 10 kids prefer crayons to Guns. 
Or guitars.
Or blogging. 
Or sports. 
Let's work to make that 10 out of 10.

FROM MOVEON.ORG:
Neither the Parkland shooter in Florida, nor the bomber in Austin were shot once, but Stephon Clark, a young unarmed Black man holding his cellphone, was shot 20 times.

Thanks to all loyal ITP V.018 readers. I'm still getting 2, 000 to 3, 000 hits per day.




ITP V.018 is BACK, with (hopefully) more consistent blogging.

There fore ITP V.017 QUARTERLY (BEST OF 2017) will posted during the course of this up and coming month 3/2018. This  week,  ITP V.017 will post QUARTERLY (BEST OF SUMMER 2017 EXTREME METAL).


BTW, if ITP V.018 readers prefer to read ITP in their native tongue, go for it. ITP has added an option for GOOGLE TRANSLATION of ITP to various languages on the right hand side of this blog. Thanks to all patient ITP V.018 READERS as I just took a (rare) two weeks (or one month off)  to get situated in my new home and settled down.

NIGHTMARER: STREAMING "CACOPHONY OF TERROR" VIA YOU TUBE

Florida U.S.A. technical death metal warriors NIGHTMARER, via YOU TUBE, are streaming the bands anticipated new release "CACOPHONY OF TERROR", due to be unleashed 3/23/2018 via SEASON OF MIST.

FROM NIGHTMARER:
The time has come to unleash 'Cacophony of Terror' in the shape it's intended to be experienced in...
All previously released singles have merely been pieces of the puzzle, but the entire album reveals a much more disturbingly complete picture of what we are trying to convey with our music: Paranoia, self-destruction, pure misery and death.
Contrary to most dissonant extreme Metal entities, we decided to go for a full on wall of sound-approach - to emphasize the crushing weight that is beating down the protagonist of the story we're telling on this record, until all life is stomped out of him.

Now go and bathe in the misery of 'Cacophony of Terror'!

ITP V.018 ONLY ONE PER COFFIN: R.I.P. FRANZ ENKER (GUITARIST- DEATHCODE SOCIETY)

French symphonic black metal warriors DEATHCODE SOCIETY have posted the below statement as guitarist FRANZ ENKER has passed away. No cause of ENKER'S death has been given. 







DEATHCODE SOCIETY  unleashed "ESCHATONIZER",  9/25/2015 via OSMOSE PRODUCTIONS.



FROM DEATHCODE SOCIETY:
Today we mourn. Several days after our concert at the Met-Bar Lenzburg, our guitar player and beloved friend Franz passed away.
He was the one who used to find the solutions. He was quickier than anybody else to fix difficult situations. And a couple of days ago, unfortunately, he came to crack the Code, before anybody could stop him.
We wish we would never have to write such a statement. Franz was a friend, a brother and probably the most trustworthy person in the world, besides being a stellar guitar player, a smart and funny buddy. Listing his qualities, as a human being and a working partner, would be an endless task. But on __ top of that he was genuinely honest and humble, humble to the point he would probably not recognize himself in this portrayal. He would ironize and say something absolutely unexpected, to turn the pathos into some kind of absurd joke.

He left us and we have no choice but to let him fly and reach the heights where his soul had his lair.
At this time, nothing more we could say can express how we feel. We only want to thank all the people who attented our shows and showed their support and their passion for our music – because this music was exactly what our friend was living for. He gave everything he could for it, and for you all.
The present situation hurts too hard and at this point it would not be wise to take any decision about the band’s future. We need time.
...............................
Deep under the surface of the ocean
is a strange unlit world
where the carcasses of sunken vessels land.
As they start their descent into the abyss,
the growing pressure crushes and distorts them.
A deafening racket, yet unnoticed in the unfathomable silence.
There, in the aphotic zone,
the marine snow sets a perpetual winter.
Small debris from the surface form conspicuous snowflakes,
irridescent in the weak hallows of the lantern fish.
The shallow-living species
have vowed to never resurface.
They welcome the torn pieces of the wreck
with no hint of animosity on their faces.
The Ningen, open-armed, waves long, gnarled fingers.
The bleak photophores of firefly squids and eels sing
in time with the slow movement of tube worms.
This silent performance
mustn't be witnessed by the unprepared diver.
For its eerie significance
could poison his mind and take him over.


Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l- 

KRAKOW: SET TO UNLEASH "MINUS"

Norwegian post metal warriors KRAKOW have revealed details for the bands anticipated new release "MINUS", due to be unleashed 8/31/2018 via KARISMA RECORDS, more info T.B.A.






KRAKOW unleashed "AMARAN", 2/9/2015 via DARK ESSENCE RECORDS.

FROM KRAKOW: 
minus
mi·nus \ˈmī-nəs\
preposition
1. less by the subtraction of; decreased by.
2. lacking or without.

adjective
3. involving or noting subtraction.
4. algebraically negative.
5. less than; just below in quality.
6. Informal. having negative qualities or characteristics; inferior.
7. Mycology. (in heterothallic fungi) designating, in the absence of morphological differentiation, one of the two strains of mycelia that unite in the sexual process.
noun
8. minus sign.
9. a minus quantity.
10. a deficiency or loss.
11. Informal. a person or thing with no apparent abilities, usefulness, etc.

Six songs. Nine singers. Three guitarists. Two drummers. One bassist. KRAKOW is back with a new album, summarized in title as minus. The result of laborious and intense work over the course of a year, with two and a half albums' worth of music chiseled down to one perfected collection of songs, the band is finally ready to reveal details of it's upcoming album, due out on Karisma Records 31 August, 2018.
With themes spanning from outer space to the hidden worlds deep below, travelling in time from distant future to nearer past like an inverted space odyssey, we are taken on a journey through stories, as much a reflection of those we tell as a revelation of those we won't.
Stunning visually, a complete physical design inspired by the music and defined by the patterns that shaped those songs, the vinyl and CD editions promise to be gems as suited to the stereo as to the shelf above it.
And the music, as always stretching towards the outer borders of any attempted genre definition covers the heavy, the subtle, the melodic, the atonal, the groovy, the absolutely ungroovy, the dense, the airy, the naked, and, always, always, that wall of sound where no light can escape before the singer stands there alone with his last story. There are guests, they bring glitz and rock n' roll as well as a grounding force towards the mountain core. There is beauty, and there is rotten decay, like a lush forested island in a lake of septic water. There are monsters and there are saints, and none of them reveal themselves, we must find those cracks on our own.
It's a collection of contradictions, is what we're saying. It's a KRAKOW album.
Upcoming live gigs: INFERNO METAL FESTIVAL NORWAY: Saturday 31.03
Bergenfest: Tuesday 12.06
