Haggard-Tales_of_Ithiria-2008-CMG

I don't get the point why CMG wrote in german in the nfo as there are only 2 german titled tracks on this album and this is an international release..However, 4 years have passed now since the last 'Haggard' record, which wasn't even bad, so I hope this one scores well, too.
'Hijo de La Luna' (Track9) is a Mecano Cover. It is spanish for Son of The Moon.

Swallow_the_Sun--Plague_of_ Butterflies-Promo-2008-UBE

New EP from 'Swallow the Sun' has been released by UBE. Maybe UBE didn't realize that this is only a EP because the playtime of over 60 minutes (34 mins only for the titletrack) is incredible long. The other tracks on this EP are from the 'Out Of This Gloomy Light' demo originally released in 2003.

Die_Apokalyptischen_Reiter_-_Licht-DE-2008-MOD

Sorry for the late update. Yep, I usually don't post non-english rels , but 'Die Apokalyptischen Reiter' (The Horsemen of the Apocalypse) from germany always played a nice mix between folk, death and power metal and I'm sure genrefans will have fun with this even without the lyrics, though I heard that 'Licht' (Light) isn't as good as the old records.

Aura_Noir-Hades_Rise-2008-BERC

Here's the latest release from Darkthrone's Peaceville sub-label 'Tyrant Syndicate'.
Just look at the bands in which the current members of 'Aura Noir' played or play.
Apollyon (Ole Jørgen Moe) plays bass in Immortal and Aggressor (Carl-Michael Eide) plays in 'Satyricon' and 'DHG', so Black Metal fans should be pleased.
Contains guest appearances from Danny Coralles (Autopsy, Abscess) and Blasphemer (ex-Mayhem)

Rumors_Of_Gehenna-Ten_Hatred_Degrees-Promo-2008-QTXMp3

Hard to find any infos about this Thrashcore band called 'Rumors of Gehenna'. All I know is that they only released 1 demo so far. Their first debut called 'Ten Hatred Degrees' should be in stores by october.
Sounds listenable to me. Some nice guitar-parts, maybe think about The Haunted playing Thrashcore.. you might want to give it a try, if you like the genre.

Soulless-Forever_Defiant-2007-BFHMP3

BFHMP3 digged something older out, it's the newest full-length from Soulless, a
Melodic Death/Thrash Metal band. Despite the fact that this record is in stores since
last year, BFH didn't rip the 2 Bonus Tracks 14 (Hollow Eyes) and 15 (Kill The King, 'RAINBOW' cover), so the playtime from Metal Archives (50:23 min) doesn't fit here. This
is nevertheless an outstanding record, so if you like it, please buy it.

AMRC brought us some Promo's from the label 'MyKingdomMusic' this day. Other bands on MKM are for example 'Through Your Silence', 'Deinonychus' or 'Sun of Weakness'. Lord Agheros however plays a bit more quite- and peaceful, meant in a good way. 'As A Sin' is the follow-up of last years debut 'Hymn'.

VA-From_Oceans_To_Autumn-Fire_On_The_Horizon-(Split)-2008-FNT

"From Oceans To Autumn, from slow paced riffs to bone crushing rhythms, ambient interludes and beautiful melodies, From Oceans To Autumn combines experimental metal and psychedelic rock with a spaced out feeling of weightlessness and droned-out atmospheres. Fire On The Horizon return with their most epic work to date, combining trademark melody with intense rhythmic sections. Fire On The Horizon have taken their sound to the next level; adding heavier more uncompromising parts."

Lord_Belial-The_Black_Curse-Promo-2008-CMG

The CD was recorded at Valle Adzic's (Impious) Deadline Studios.
Lord Belial's sound is often compared to the sound of Dissection,
so BlackMetal fans should give it at try.
