Lord Of The Lost - A Night To Remember

2015-12-03 (News)

On their acoustic tour with an 11-piece chamber ensemble, the versatile Gothic-Metal-powerhouse Lord Of The Lost revealed an altogether new side. "A Night To Remember" captures the show in the sold-out Markthalle in Hamburg on DVD and 2 CDs.
Lord Of The Lost's acoustic tour in early 2015 was celebrated by audiences and press alike, but the sold-out  gig in their home city was a superlative even by those standards. With the album "Swan Songs", the band had successfully conquered new frontiers: classic Lord Of The Lost tunes and songs written especially for the project had been treated with symphonic arrangements and were performed live with an expanded ensemble of 11 musicians, featuring classical performers from different countries. The Hamburg show was recorded with 6 HD-cameras and multi-track-audio, which was the basis for the concert film "A Night To Remember" which effectively transports the atmosphere of the album into your own four walls. The sound mix was optimized for audiophile ears at the Chameleon Studios in Hamburg and is also included audio-only on 2 CDs in this classy DVD+2CD-set, limited to 1000 copies in a DVD-Digipak

Megaherz - Erdwärts

2015-12-02 (News)

"Zombieland", the latest studio album by Germans Megaherz, is still haunting our auditory canals, and the five piece has already been busy working on fresh shenanigans: "Look forward to the new Megaherz shredfest!" The band announced their new EP "Erdwärts". There are four new and very varied songs on this EP: two of them feature pure riff-laden heaviness, mid-tempo classic one and a slow and broody track that will be the talk of the town. On top of that and just like with "Götterdämmerung" and "Zombieland", two Megaherz classics were re-recorded – fans can now enjoy new versions of faves including ‘Teufel‘ and ‘Jordan‘. 
Lyric wise, fear is at the heart of it all: fear of the unknown and fear of a world that seems chaotic and out of control. It`s time to stop hiding and face those fears! ‘Glorreiche Zeiten` (‘Glorious times‘) on the other hand wishes strength to dreamers aiming to fulfill their biggest dreams. ‘Einsam‘ (‘Lonely‘) tells the story of the demise of a relationship with a twist: the one who leaves seems rather gleeful! This is a wondrous mix and a mighty appetizer for the Megaherz German tour in January 2016 – and something to shorten the wait for the band’s next album.

Aokigahara (青木ヶ原), known as the Suicide Forest is a 35-square-kilometre forest that lies at the northwest base of Mount Fuji in Japan. Aokigahara forest is dense, shutting out all but the natural sounds of the forest itself. The forest has an historic association with demons in Japanese mythology.

This is a beautiful dark ambient soundtrack culminating in the final choice between life and death.
