Negative Plane Announces Tour With Malthusian
Negative Plane once again returns to Europe to undertake what will be the final run of shows in support of second album, "Stained Glass Revelations," before work proper begins on new material that will see the light of day in the not-too-distant future.
Support for the tour comes from Invictus Productions labelmates Malthusian, who recently released a second EP through the label Below the Hengiform. As two unique entities bringing out the primordial elements inherent within black, death, and doom metal, both Negative Plane and Malthusian are a complementary duo that will certainly darken the remaining summer days.

Malthusian Sets Date For "Below The Hengiform" EP
Invictus Productions announced the impending release of the highly anticipated debut EP of Irish black/death metal act Malthusian entitled "Below the Hengiform." The EP is set for international release on April 6th and will be available on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats.
Malthusian's debut demo - "MMXIII" - was one of the most acclaimed and coveted demos of recent times, selling out its initial pressing by Invicuts almost immediately. Its three songs display a uniquely hallucinogenic and poisonous brand of black/death/doom metal, instilling unrest and unease in the all-too-willing listener.
Now, with "Below the Hengiform," Malthusian "digs deeper into the horror of the grave and the doom of the earth, unfurling yet three more world-eating vortexes that exhibit an even-more-unique and increasingly idiosyncratic approach. Here, the quartet malform and then meld only the most challenging and unsettling elements of bestial black metal, morbid death metal, and langourous doom, swirling the alchemical mixture together as amorphous globules of subsonic sound pulse irregularly and bracingly before devouring the listener, all the while dotted with atonal 'n' angular stutters before the soul-damning plummet to the very abyss."
Taken together, once again, Malthusian shows the way forward for supposedly "extreme" metal, jarring uncomfortably with the stasis that the modern death metal scene appears to languish in due to its retro fixation. Below the Hengiform lies the beginning, and the end... Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

Malthusian To Release "MMXIII"
Today, Malthusian sets November 22nd as the release date for the band's "MMXIII" debut, to see release via Invictus Productions. The following press release was also issued about the band:
"Ireland's Malthusian seeped into creation in 2012 with the purpose of creating dismal, suffocating death metal. Slowly shaping their odes of negative, hallucinogenic, and poisonous black/death/doom, the band are poised to stir unease with the release of their MMXIII demo, which will see release first on cassette and then a CD version later on; a vinyl LP version is potentially in the works.
"Malthusian have managed to create an asphyxiating and dismal gloom with their sound: Resplendent with the horror of the grave and the doom of the earth, the three tracks across MMXIII jar uncomfortably with the stasis that the modern death metal scene appears to languish in due to its retro fixation."
