Retaliation Announce New Album

Henke of Swedish death metal band, Retaliation has posted the following update:

"That's the shit my friends; the title for our new album:

'The Cost Of Redemption.'

Yeah...we like it!
Although, don't get too optimistic...we haven't even begun to record.
Supposedly we'll lay down the drum track on the 27th and 28th of January. But knowing my own band members I wouldn't be surprised if something fucks it all up once again (like sooo many times in the past).

Our goal is to have the album released some time before MDF07, so that people at the show hopefully recognize some of the songs we'll be playing. Of course we'll mix it up with a few old ones as well...

The loyal friends at No Tolerance are releasing the new album (just as they did with our last offering, 'Violence Spreads Its Drape') and we trust them with all our hearts that they wont screw it up so that the album is released too late." More...

Thy Primordial Split Up

Swedish mythological black metallers THY PRIMORDIAL have officially split up. A posting at the group's web site reads as follows:

"THY PRIMORDIAL is no more ...the glorious days are over... to ruin and decay. Greatest of hails to all & everyone that has, during the years, crossed our path. Thanks. In monumental honour we leave thee now... Mors omnia delet, extinquit!"

THY PRIMORDIAL's final album, "Pestilence Upon Mankind", was released in early 2004 through Blackend Records. It was recorded at Abyss studios with producer Tommy Tägtgren and was the group's first to feature vocalist Nicke Holstensson, formerly of Swedish deathsters NOMINON.
