Track I – Rex Satanachia – As the First Legion Descends
Lord Beezanborgh - Vocals
Lord Sah Saeriuz - Guitars
In the beginning, in the year of our lord Sathannas 2003.Lord Sah Saeriuz (Nekrovoid, Deliquescence etc.) decided to begin his practice in the unholy art of Black metal, thus forming what we know today as Rex Satanachia. This move from more traditional death metal to extreme Black metal was a natural one, as the sorcerer had long sought a fitting medium for his Satanic message and beliefs. Lord Sah Saeriuz started to write some songs, then later teaming up with a friend on vocals (Daniel) to record the first primitive versions of the 6 songs known as the "first legion of hell". But his friend quickly backed out, as he was not into Satanism and the occult. The songs were never finished, and Lord Sah Saeriuz sacrificially burned a copy of the pre-master in honour his master Satanachia. After this, the project was laid to rest. But after meeting with a fellow sorcerer, namely lord Beezanborgh. (Temple of Baphomet, Sulphurious etc.) The two of them decided to carry on together to finished what was started. They needed a drummer, and soon hooked up with a local talent, a redheaded dude known as Renégadeth (Indoctrination etc.) and together with a guitarist Ignis (Blood Front, Drab) they formed the first line up of Rex Satanachia. Things quickly started to take off, and the old songs were given new life. There were even planes for a gig, but due to Christian sabotage and the envy of other bands this never became reality. This was the beginning of what the band today refers to as "the Yahweh curse", as if some unseen force constantly tried to destroy this satanic manifestation. And to due to some "unknown" circumstances Lord Sah Saeriuz moved away from the town were Rex Satanachia rehearsed. But not long after this, the band emerged in a new form, in the home town of Lord Beezanborgh. With a new drummer and now with Nocturnaz (demon realm, Sulphurious) joining in on bass, things seemed even better and more promising for the band. But again, problems started to manifest, mainly due to their new drummer and his shitface hippie mentality, the two sorcerers were patient with this fucker. But, at last they decided to break this alliance, and ultimately destroying the drummers life and his goddamn drum kit. After this, other alternatives were tried out again, but the distances between members and the fact that a drummer was very hard to find. The two sorcerers decided to make things more simple, to hire there old friend Morten Løve (Submission etc. ) to record drums for their first release, and not to involve any other musicians for this recording, thus making the processes more smooth and faster.. And behold! Their goal is now accomplished, the most extreme and evil Black Metal ever recorded by any Danish band is now ready to be released…. All Hail Sathannas! …And fuck off to all those who Stood in the way of Rex Satanachia! We are truly above you!
Track II – Keller – Death Command
www.myspace.com/kellermetal
Martin Lukach - Lead Vocals
Etien "Eti" Shavli - Lead/Rhythm Guitars
Peter Kastrin - Lead/Rhythm Guitars
Vasja "Vasko" Doplihar - Bass
Matjaz "Winko" Winkler - Drums
The story of Keller, a thrash metal band from Nova Gorica ( Slovenia ), begins in march 2007 when guitarist Etien and drummer Matjaz decide to form a new, more aggressive band, since the heavy metal band they previously had broke up. They made five songs and in the end of summer 2007, Vasja joins the band on bass guitar. After a couple of months of no luck with finding the right singer, Martin came to the "audition" and the guys immediately knew that he's the right man for the job. The lineup was nearly complete, the only thing missing was one more guitar player. That place was taken by Peter, in February 2008. By this time, eight Keller songs were made, enough to start concerting around Slovenia. The audience's reaction was so amazing that they went to record the Awake The Forgotten demo four months after completing the lineup. When the demo came out in the end of August 2008, they went on small tour (entitled Bringing Out The Evil Tour ) around Slovenia with the band Eliminator ( Slovenia ). They are planning to record their debut album next year, which will probably be published by themselves, but they are nevertheless anxious to find a record deal.

Track IV - May Result – At the Cursed Heights of Prokletije
www.myspace.com/mayresult
www.mayresult.net
Glad - Vocals
Kozeljnik - Guitars
Dusan - Guitars
Urok - Keys
Demonetras - Guitars
L.G. – Drums
The death unity of May Result was born in June 1995. Idea was to form an extreme band firmly rooted in traditional metal of Blackdeath. During the first couple of months, first line-up was completed: Kozeljnik and Rastko on guitars, Ilija on drums, Srdjan handling the vocals, Vladan on bass and Predrag ..boards. Also, first few songs were made and group got the opportunity to play live for the first time. First demo "Ignoramus et Ignorabimus" appeared in '97 on limited tape version, having 4 songs of grim darkened death metal. Soon after Vladan left the band, Rastko switched on to bass guitar and the new guitarist Dusan was introduced. Some months later, songs for the upcoming debut album were arranged and the recording session took place in April, at "Kazablanka" studio in Belgrade. 10 tracks here, showing band in a slightly different manner. Music was way melodic than before, full of sympho keyboard parts and strong influence of traditional heavy metal riffing. Group got signed with now defunct Italian label Seven Arts Prod. and supposed to get this album released by the end of the year. Unfortunately, label was experiencing big financial problems those days and put this debut release on hold. A year after, bigger problems have occured and label was forced to close down. Anyhow, band moved on and played some live shows in Serbia. The year '99, Srdjan and Predrag are leaving the collective, being replaced by Glad (on vocals) and Iva (..boards). Group signed a 2-record deal with Austrian CCP Records, which finally made the release of their first album possible. "Gorgeous Symphonies Of Evil" was out in June '00, being well supported by some live shows after. Until the end of the year, Iva was kicked out and her replace was Milan (known for his work in Grom Records). Band continued to perform live, patiently preparing songs for the new album. Finally, "Kazablanka" studio was booked, for summer '01. Two months of hard work have paid off and brought up 7 long tracks breathing with truly uncontrollable energy, a way more faster, darker and aggressive than before. Band's sound was really improved and refreshed with tons of new elements. A real Devilry in well-paced black/death metal form. "Tmina" was released in December and it marked the path this group will go from now on ... live promotion went great as well, being held in Serbia, Hungary, Czechia etc. The response from the public was fantastic. At that time, Kozeljnik and Ilija were also playing in a black metal horde namely The Stone (K. still does) and due to their huge obligations there, May Result was on hold for almost two years. In summer '03, they got back with the idea about the new material. Meanwhile, they signed a new 2-record deal, now with Serbian label called Rock Express Record. The end of the year saw the release of group's mini-album entitled "U Slavu Rogova Nasih". CD includes two completely new songs, one old re-recorded song, one live song, a cover of Norwegian Gehenna and complete demo re-released here. Afterwards, May Result contributed on Romanian part of "Storming The East" tour with Primordial, Negura Bunget and others. It all served well as a prelude to the upcoming third album. The recording process of "Svetogrdje" lasted for three months and was finally done in October '04. Here, band calmed down tempo a bit, not holding back the aggressivity and grimness, all the gloomy and freezing atmosphere they were known for. There are eight really long songs (+ intro and outro), each standing on its own, not letting the listener walk away from it so easily ... On a big surprise, only a few months after the release date, longtime drummer Ilija decides to leave the tribe, due to a fact he was not at all satisfied with the group's achievements during their career. With this thing happened, May Result had to be put on hold for a second time. Kozeljnik went on to fully concentrate on his work in The Stone, Rastko was doing his time in the army. Nothing happened until almost a year after, when new drummer Ved (from Serbian band Simargal) joined in. They were back on the track, but not even a couple of months have passed, Rastko makes the same decision as Ilija and with practically the same reasons leaves the group. Soon after, The Stone guitarist Demonetras was asked to fill in on bass and is a full-time member now. They finally begun with the rehearsals and the very result came in a form of a live-recording (of their 10th year anniversary concert), which later got released and called "Decenija Crnog Plamena". They had a stable line-up like this for two years, but at the end of '07, while having nearly all the songs for the next album prepared, Ved was no longer really satisfying the needs of the band and was told to leave. A month after, new drummer L.G. joined the rank and soon they had all the songs for the upcoming album well-practiced and arranged and were ready to enter the recording room. This time, choice fell on "Draft" studio and the result is a blasting 35-minute long full-length album, named "Slava Smrti", considered the best record May Result did by now. This will be out by the end of '08 on Battle God Productions from Australia, so be sure to make a warm welcome, or it will freeze your skin ...
