If you're like me and are excited about the new Darkthrone, the vinyl edition of the new album "Circle the wagons" is now available for preorder and will be released on March 8, a full month before the CD/digital. Go here for details: http://www.peaceville.com/Darkthrone/
If I didn't already just preorder a bunch of Swedish death metal reissues, I'd be all about it.

Many folks have abandoned myspace, but Fenriz of Darkthrone still uses it to highlight his favorite underground acts with his "Band of the Week" feature and now, after doing it continually for a long while, it's led to some bigger/better things besides just hipping many folks to lots of great music (myself included). First up, there will be a "Live Evil Fest" happening in Camden, UK in late October featuring a number of previous "Band of the Week" recipients including Obliteration and Sonic Ritual, two IAT favorites. Go here for more on that: http://www.myspace.com/liveevilfestival
Secondly, both Nocturno Culto and Fenriz will be co-editing the March issue of Terrorizer where they will be running features and interviews on many other bands they dig. Should be great for anyone into true underground metal + punk, so yeah, keep an eye out!

There's so much metal in so many shapes and guises out there these days that it's inevitable a proportion of bands will rage against the shimmery-shiny output of many of today's bigger acts and opt for the down and dirty approach adopted -- usually out of necessity -- by those who first kicked off the extreme metal movement. Indeed, Kolbotn's Obliteration have done just that and, while a lot of latter day old-school acts whet the whistle with demonic nods towards dirty metal's formative years, this Norwegian crew come across so authentically ancient that they could easily be mistaken as having been around during the early days of Darkthrone's bleak death metal reign. It's no wonder that Fenriz himself praises them for having succeeded in accomplishing what he and Nocturno Culto had attempted to do with "Soulside journey" and "Goatlord" between '88 and '91. Indeed, "Nekropsalms" harks right back to that era in terms of sound and song structure and offers a superb album that sounds even more old-school than some of the genuine mature stuff out there. There's not much point in highlighting examples of nostalgic vibe on this, the band's second full-length effort, when it oozes early-‘90s atmosphere from start to finish. If you want to relive the experience of discovering this type of music when it was first clawing its way out of subterranean Norway, then this is the album with which to do it. Death, doom, despair, horror and -- indeed -- Obliteration await.

Fenriz has posted an updated Darkthrone bio on myspace and in it he reveals that the band's next album "Circle the wagons" will be released in February.

The Nocturnal Cult webzine has a new interview with Darkthrone sideproject/cult doom act Valhall: http://www.nocturnalcult.com/
Fenriz from Darkthrone has made what looks to be another great mixtape of old-school metal, this time focusing on "proto-metal", aka "metal before there was metal" from the era of 1968-1978: http://www.viceland.com/music/2009/10/a-fist-in-the-face-of-god-fenriz-presents%E2%80%A6-trapped-under-vice-vol-ii/
Very little Scandinavian content, but that doesn't mean it's not worth checking out.
Darkthrone will be putting the finishing touches on their next album come late October.
