MP3: Logh - War ensemble

June 6 is Swedish National Day? Boo-o-oring! No! Today is 6-6-6, the National Day of Slayer! To celebrate I'm giving y'all an mp3 of Logh doing an amazing slowcore take on Slayer's classic "War ensemble". Raise the horns and join the festivities! The track is the b-side from the band's "The bones of generations" 7", the second of a four-part vinyl single collection from "The raging sun", still as yet to be completed. The sound quality is imperfect since it's a vinyl rip, but it's still awesome.

MP3: Lemonator - Heart burns

I don't usually take the time to post two songs from the same album, but rules are made to be broken and Lemonator deserves the attention. I discussed the song "Would you die for me?" m/index.php?story_id=991">last monday and today it's all about "Heart burns", my pick for the album's highlight. You'll probably be surprised when you first hear it because it starts out guns ablazin' with loud, crashing chords. There's nowhere to go but down, right? Au contraire! The piece still has plenty of room to grow, as you'll soon discover when you listen on. First comes the dense chords to build tension and then once things take a quick breather for the chorus, the first round of strings come in. The harmonies they employ in the chord progression are so incredible and so far from pop norms. The intensity grows! The second chorus leaves you hanging like it's the end, but then the drums take off again and oh my god, the band just explodes and all the hairs on my arms and neck are sticking straight up in the air and holy shit those chords are just so thick and agonizing until the resolution when everything lines up again for the final chime of the main theme. Phew! So ridiculously good.

The good news is that Rupesh Cartel has signed with megahype Records in Sweden and A Different Drum in North America. The bad news? The album release has been pushed back to 2007, but the first single should arrive this fall.
