Wedding In Hades «Elements Of Disorder»

Lyrical piano fragments and atmospheric keyboards, harsh blastbits, clean and growl vocals have found their place in Wedding In Hades music. «Elements Of Disorder» combined elements of My Dying Bride and Katatonia with their own vision of dark and extremal metal.
On The Edge Of The NetherRealm «Different Realms»
The debut album of the side-project of the Revelations of Rain guitarist could appear as a surprise for those who have already appreciated the works of the mother-band. Combining major influences of Italian band Novembre with minor traces of Revelations of Rain the debut album of On The Edge Of The NetherRealm accents to outstanding melodies supported by solo guitars. Having been found a golden mean between harsh and lyrical music «Different Realms» becomes an outstanding example of harmonic fusion of doom/death metal and dark metal.
Re123+ «Magi»
The debut official release from a unique Belorussian band. The music of Re123+ is an act of meditation. Each time the band offers to a listener another kind of sound, never repeats itself preparing a special program for each concert. “Magi” is a travel to the Past demonstrating the ancient story of Adoration of Magi to the listener as an astrological story. This is the attempt to understand and to see the true essence of matter while clearing it from various interpretations. This album like all other Re123+ works was recorded during night time. Besides traditional drone-touched guitars the musicians introduced sounds of accordion, triangle and percussion. Stylistically their music varies from drone-doom to post-rock and will surely suit the tastes of early Earth fans. For proper visualization of the album’s idea the booklet includes photo art by members of Re123+ accompanied by citations from «The Island of the Day Before» by famous postmodernist Umberto Eco.
