Grendel born in 2003 for the will of Mordred and Chainerdog, who wantedto make some epic black metal. In 2005 they contacted Loathing (drums) with the idea of releasing an album, and after one year of sessions the band went to Rome to the Outer Sound Studios (Giuseppe Orlando) for the making of their first full length, called “Beowulf”. The band got some suggestions from some labels, but finally we signed a deal with Narok Records, that was the best choice because the CD had been printed and released just as we want. And for this reason we still want to thank Mariusz for the great work! After the release of the album, we lost the inspiration and wanted to devote our time to other kinds of music, and each of Grendel’s members get concentrated on his own interests, so we decided to split-up. Now, after some months of silence, we meet with the intent of releasing a second album.

Track IV – Post Death Soundtrack - Hegemonic Bastards Network
http://www.myspace.com/postdeathsoundtrack


Kenneth Buck
Steve Moore

Post Death Soundtrack is the antithesis of today's mainstream culture, creating confrontational music by weaving - industrial, electronic, trip-hop and rock sounds. Post Death Soundtrack is a duo made up of Steve Moore and Kenneth Buck, who share vocal, musical, and production roles. In this project style is less important than mood, as it strives to encourage thought and communication on a deep level.
On September 16 2008 Post Death Soundtrack released their debut full length album entitled "Music as Weaponry". A conceptual album, "Music as Weaponry" focuses on the process of belief, its role in the development of ideological institutions and their relation to ongoing violence, including the death of modern music. The result is the use of music as something new and powerful, lending a voice in the harmonization of the counterculture.

Track V - Karg – Harest (Des Sommers Letzter Flugelscahlag)
http://www.myspace.com/kargband

V.Wahntraum - Vocals, All Instruments
KARG is a one-man black metal band from Austria. The one and only member is V.Wahntraum. KARG was born in spring 2006 as my former band Hoffnungstod split up. The first and only Demo Cd “Zeitenwende – Martyrium eines sterbenden Traums” was released in autumn of the same year, limited to 50 pieces and were only given to friends and some interested people. A year later in summer 2007 I recorded the 7 songs for my Debut “Von den Winden der Sehnsucht #1 - ….und leiser wehen die Lieder….” and sent it to several labels in Austria and Germany. In october 2008 it was released as Tape version on the german label Karge Welten Kunstverlag, which also released bands like Fäulnis or Zarathustra. Later in that year, the album will also be released as Cd (lim. 500) on the Austrian label Seelengreif Klangwelten. That time I#m currently under hardly progress finishing the second album “Von den Winden der Sehnsucht #2 - ….und doch hab’ ich deinen Herzschlag noch in Ohren….“. I hope to release it in December or January. The album will be a concept containing lyrics about themes like longing, self-destruction, suicide wishes, but also about things I love(ed) and the fear of the coming day.

Track XI – Souldaemon – Wings of Death
.
www.myspace.com/souldaemon99



SoulDÆmon Bass / Vocal
SoulDÆmon is strange extreme apocalyptic project that was born in 1999. It’s a heresy of death/black metal because it destroys the normal criterions of composition, using only the sonority of distortion bass. The sound is very rough: dark melancholy coupled with some misanthropic atmosphere, apocalyptic visions, easiness, uncertainty, impotence, agony, and nihilism. Also the vocals are extreme and sound like they come straight from hell. No hope, no dreams only a dark abyss of sorrow. The genre is a merger of Death Metal and Metal Black made cryptic by peculiarities of sound its called Heretic Death Metal. The project is not for delicate ears...Discography:- Dead World Ep October 2006 - Fragment of Sanity demo 2005 - DemonRise demo 2004 - Race of Evil demo 1999/2002 Contact:

HAILING FROM THE MOST SOUTHERN POINT OF THE DARKEST CONTINENT, THE FORCE KNOWN AS NOCTIVIAN WAS FORMED. ON THE 06/06/06, RIGHT IN THE HEART OF THE AFRICAN WINTER, A GROUP OF LIKE-MINDED METAL HEADS GATHERED AND WANTED TO GIVE S.A. SOMETHING THAT THEY HAD NOT EXPERIENCED OR EVEN SEEN IN THE COUNTRY BEFORE... A REALLY EXTREME, BRUTAL, HEAVY AND DARK BLACK METAL ACT! TAKING INFLUENCES FROM BANDS LIKE DARK FUNERAL, 1349, GORGOROTH, DAWN, BEHEMOTH, HATE ETERNAL, NILE, SATYRICON, ZYKLON, EMPEROR, MARDUK, DISSECTION AND MISTELTEIN (JUST TO MENTION A FEW) AND SEE WHAT WE COULD DO WITH OUR MUSIC AND WHAT IT WOULD COME OUT SOUNDING LIKE.WITH LOTS OF SUPPORT AND BACKING, FIVE MONTHS LATER WE HEADLINED THE WHIPLASH METAL FEST 2006 AS OUR DEBUT SHOW TO SEE WHAT THE RESPONSE WOULD BE TOWARDS US AND WHAT WE WERE DOING. IT WAS A GREAT SUCCESS AND WE GAINED THE RESPECT AND ATTENTION FROM MANY A LOCAL METAL HEAD. AFTER OUR SHOW AT WHIPLASH 2006 WE LOST LEAD GUITARIST (ZARRAK) AND FORCED US TO PULL OUT OF WHAT WAS TO BE OUR SECOND SHOW AT RAM FEST 2007 AND TOOK A LEAVE OF ABSENCE FROM PLAYING LIVE AND RECRUITED TWO NEW MEMBERS (GOLIATH-KEYBOARD & BALERIAN-LEAD GUITAR) AND WROTE A HOLE NEW SET WHICH WAS UNLEASHED AT EMPYREAN FEST 2007 ALMOST A YEAR LATER. YET ANOTHER GREAT SHOW FOR THE BAND, BUT RENDERING THE FIRST SET NEVER RECORDED OR HEARD EVER AGAIN EXCEPT FOR LIVE BOOTLEG FOOTAGE RECORDINGS OF THE SHOW HELD CAPTIVE BY THE BAND. HOWEVER AFTER EMPYREAN FEST 2007 WE WOULD SUFFER YET ANOTHER HEAVY BLOW WITH THE LOSS OF OUR KEYBOARDIST, LEAD GUITARIST, BASSIST AND DRUMMER. THE BAND IS CURRENTLY REPLACING THEM AND RE-WRITING THE SET FOR RECORDING AND CRUSHING STAGES TO BLOODY RUINS ALL OVER AND STILL GO ON TO TRY SET A NEW LEVEL OD STANDARD FOR METAL IN S.A. AND AN INTERNATIONAL STANDARD FOR OURSELVES AS WE EMBARK ON A LONG AND DARK PATH TO PUT S.A. EXTREME MUSIC ON THE WORLD MAP BY HOPEFULLY BRAKING FREE FROM THE BLACK HOLE THAT IS THE S.A. METAL SCENE AND EVENTUALLY AFTER RECORDING MORE MUSIC WITH THE NEW LINE-UP AND GETTING OUR BLOOD OUT TO THE REST OF THE WORLD, GETTING THE ATTENTION OF AN OVERSEAS RECORD LABEL AND MAKING WAY FOR THE FUTURE BANDS LIKE US COMING OUT OF THE COUNTRY! OUR SINGLE"I AM GOD"(FROM THE OLD LINE-UP) WILL BE AVAILABLE THROUGH EMPYREAN AND WWW.SUBTERANIA.CO.ZA FOR DOWNLOAD FOR R6.66 ALONG WITH OTHER EXCLUSIVE MATERIAL SOON!
