STRYDEGOR - Isolacracy Digipak CD
Produktinformationen "STRYDEGOR - Isolacracy Digipak CD"
Metallic north wind!
For 10 years now Strydegor have been providing a steady musical north wind in the metal scene. They mix gusts of melodic death metal with hymnic-acoustic swirls, peppered with accentuated pinches of biting black metal. After the three albums and numerous gigs on European stages so far, the northmans are now preparing to unleash another storm of sound with "Isolacracy" as a testimony to their musical development. Like an Orcan that gets under your skin more incisive and lasting than anything the band has ever made before.
The waiting time for the new album was definitely worth it, because "Isolacracy" undoubtedly represents the high point of the quartet's musical work so far and should be a candidate for the title "Melodic Death Metal Album of the Year". The Classical Melodic Metal trademarks, multi-layered vocals, a great feeling for melodies and atmosphere, as well as the mature songwriting are definitely a demand for admission into higher spheres of Metal Olymp!
The present 11 songs were recorded between february 2018 and august 2020 in the Hell-Sounds Studio in Neu Brenz, refined by Oliver Carell/Blastbeat Productions (Ophis, Fäulnis, Heretoir, among others) and finally mastered by Lasse Lammert in the LSD Studio Lübeck (Alestorm, Gloryhammer) to a stunning neckbreaker. The cover artwork, which was created by Patrick Wittstock from Azrael Design, completes the harmonious overall picture of the almost 50 minute longplayer.

SUIDAKRA - Wolfbite Digipak CD
12,99 €*
Suidakra 2.0? 1000 percent Suidakra!
After more than 25 years of history and more than 13 studio albums as well as worldwide tours, can a band reinvent itself or even release the unexpected? Well, Suidakra may not reinvent themselves completely in 2021, but on their new album "Wolfbite" they create a mixture of all their past musical work and a fresh breeze, which gives the impression that the band has risen from a fountain of youth.
"Wolfbite" is bursting with power, uncompromisingness and joy of playing. The collaboration with Aljoscha Sieg (Eskimo Callboy, Vitja, Gestört aber GeiL), which is certainly untypical for die-hard fans, results in a breathtaking, lively sound, which from the very first note makes any scepticism about whether Suidakra still sound like Suidakra in 2021 evaporate. With the proven concept story from the "Realms Of Odoric" cosmos, lyrically and visually realised by Kris Verwimp, of course, "Suidakra 2.0" presents itself in a form that even old fans probably wouldn't have dreamed of.
With "Wolfbite", Suidakra succeed in travelling from the past into the future and surely present one of THE albums of the year 2021.
"As a fanboy since the debut, I am of course proud to be able to release the band's most mature work. Check out all the old albums and you will hear 100% Suidakra. But what is Wolfbite then? One thousand percent Suidakra? Album of the year - basta! Nothing beats that."
- Markus Roesner / CEO, MDD Records

Final Cry - The Ever-Rest CD
11,99 €*
Epic Melodic Thrash/Death Metal Highlight!
Seit über 30 Jahren sind FINAL CRY ein konstanter Bestandteil der deutschen Metal Szene und legen mit dem Bergsteiger Epos “The Ever-Rest” ihren nunmehr sechsten Longplayer vor. Darauf gelingt es der Band einmal mehr sich neu zu erfinden, ohne dabei ihre Wurzeln aus den Augen zu verlieren.
Ihr nach wie vor im Thrash Metal verwurzelter Sound besticht durch gnadenloses Riffing, treibende Drums und viel Gespür für Melodien und Atmosphäre und schlägt dabei eine Brücke zwischen dem klassischen Thrash der 80er und den düsteren skandinavischen Stilen der 90er. Der neue Mann am Mikro gibt dem Sound der Band nicht nur eine neue Note, sondern seine garstigen Screams und Growls passen auch zum tödlich-frostigen Szenario des Albums wie die Faust aufs Auge. Das Gesamtkonzept wird durch ein 20seitigen Storybooklet abgerundet, welches die realen Geschichten erzählt, die jedem einzelnen Song zu Grunde liegen. Für einige Backing Vocals und Chöre, welche die epische Tiefe des Albumthemas unterstützen, konnte man zudem Herbie Langhans (AVANTASIA) und Børd Wäsche (EYE SEE BLACK) gewinnen. “The Ever-Rest” wurde im Soundlodge Studio unter den Fittichen von Jörg Uken aufgenommen und ist zweifellos ein Highlight im Schaffen des Quintetts und dürfte sowohl alte als auch neue Fans der Niedersachsen begeistern. Für ihre langjährigen Anhänger hat die Band als Bonus mit “Words Unspoken” zudem einen ihrer Alltime Klassiker aus dem Jahre 1994 nochmal neu aufgenommen und ins neue Jahrtausend portiert.
Dragonbreed - Necrohedron CD
11,99 €*
A step back in history and two steps forwards...
What lasts a long time becomes one! The history of the melodic death metal flagships Graveworm and Suidakra has always been closely connected. They started out on the same label, toured together and developed deep friendships that have lasted until today.
It happened that during the songwriting for the current Suidakra longplayer "Wolfbite" several songs came up that didn't really fit to Suidakra, but with their raw sound, groove and melodies they brought back memories of the old times at the beginning of the nineties and demanded to be released. So Akki and Zachi (the former Suidakra bassist) knocked on the door of some old companions to complete the time travel experiment and were joined by Graveworm singer Stefano Fiori. They were completed by current Suidakra members Sebastian and Ken to unleash this debut album on mankind. So it's no surprise that "Necrohedron" sounds exactly like this: raw, inspired by the spirit of their early years together, paired with the skills and finesse of today!
Cover artist Kris Verwimp (Suidakra, Marduk, Immortal, Arch Enemy, among others) was also immediately on fire and is responsible for the cover artwork as well as the lyrics. Fot this he used a concept story that had been lying dormant in his drawer for a long time and fitted Dragonbreed like a glove. The band has the claim not only to be a one-off "project", but also to aspire to the stages of this world with their well thought-out concept.

Dark Tranquillity - Construct CD
12,99 €*
Innovative, atmospheric change ...
With their tenth studio album "Construct", the then spearhead of Swedish melodic death metal Dark Tranqullity are heaviely struggled. The band suffered from writer's block in the run-up and also disagreed for a long time about how the new album should sound at all.
In the end, a quite extraordinary album was created directly in the studio, on which above all many small details, different moods and a sound-based atmosphere were in the foreground. Many die-hard fans, expecting a melodic death metal milestone, were alienated by the more experimental tones of the album and so it quickly fell out of focus among purists.
In retrospect it has to be said: unjustified, because it has an emotional depth that perfectly reflects the mood in which the band found themselves in the run-up to the creation process. So "Construct" is ultimately 100% a Dark Tranquillity album that is worthy of being put in perspective and duly considered again in 2022.
