Look for the band's new sIngle <I>"When the lIghts went out"I> to be released next week.
TonIght! Do not mIss!
TerrortoryThIs Is the debut album by the SwedIsh crew and It must be saId from the offset that there's a dIstInct blandness about It that's not only down to the productIon, but also because of a terrIble attempt at emulatIng past success. Terrortory's thIng seems to be to wrIte tunes In the styles of a heap of already-revered bands, stIck them all together, and hope for a wInnIng formula. In Flames, The Haunted, Opeth, Sentenced and a shItload of others that are famIlIar but that I can't quIte put my fInger on are referenced here, none of whIch are mImIcked to the poInt where you could say the materIal that Terrortory has wrItten Is better. There's also a tIny bIt of old school MetallIca to be found on some of the melodIc parts and, whIle those are actually okay, thIs album as a whole Is a very unInspIrIng -- Indeed, a very borIng -- lIsten. The productIon does get part of the blame despIte the fact that everythIng Is clear and brIght, It's just that there's a lack of any punch whatsoever, even In the album's better moments. It's quIte possIble that when faced wIth materIal as dull and repetItIve as thIs producer HenrIk WIklund sImply lost the wIll to lIve. I know I dId.

don't seem to make much of a fuss over theIr new releases, so there's a good chance you were probably unaware that Björn Olsson has a new solo album out now called <I>"LIte nya melodIer"I>, but he does and now you can lIsten to It Ify.com/album/3C8MzdrI4bKoRPRdzbqwx6" target="_blank">vIa SpotIfy. It starts out slow wIth a few solo pIano pIeces ala Jan Johansson before buIldIng Into the more typIcal EnnIo MorrIcone-style soundtracks he's known for. And yes JIm, there's plenty of whIstlIng.

Another one I pulled from the stacks recently, shame that Repoman couldn't hold It together for more than an EP. Nowadays there's a whole slew of folks doIng noIsy nIhIlIstIc hardcore agaIn, but that wasn't the case 5 years ago when thIs EP was released, nor are a lot of the modern-day purveyors as good. Strange how many of the current crop of MysterIous Guy HC clones are more concerned wIth beIng weIrd or provocatIve when they really should be concentratIng on wrItIng actual songs. Anyhow, enough IsfItopIa.com/uploads/1250621854/gallery_1_1_11337.jpg" target="_blank">old-man-cloudIng, just enjoy the track.
Normally I would Ignore anythIng/everythIng havIng to do wIth Dead By AprIl, but thIs Is amazIng. Pure artIstry!
