REVIEW: What Magical Doom This Is
Tue, 30 Jun 2009 01:15:00 +0100Candlemass - Death Magic DoomRelease Date: April 3rd, 2009 on Nuclear Blast RecordsCandlemass is synonymous with doom metal. The two go hand in hand, along with Black Sabbath no other band has done as much for doom metal as Candlemass. Each album is an exercise and lesson in how proper doom metal is done. Death Magic Doom is no exception and could be one of the best Candlemass albums ever... (Read complete news)
Interview with Dark Castle
Sun, 28 Jun 2009 14:35:00 +0100Dark Castle are a stoner/doom duo from Saint Augustine, Florida. I recently had the chance to interview them to find out more. Dark Castle are: Stevie Floyd - Guitar, Vocals Rob Shaffer - Drums, Vocals, Synth MM-Who are your musical influences? We're into a lot of different types of music. As far as metal, some influences would be Death, Bathory, Yob, Neurosis. As far as 70s prog rock, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, King Crimson, Camel. We listen to a lot of multi-cultural world music types like middle eastern, Asian, Egyptian, African. Hip hop and classical too. MM-Tell us some about the history of your band. The band formed the day we met. Both of us had other music projects that we left behind to start something new. We both had similar interests and goals for a band. We originally both played guitar and had a drum machine, but then Rob decided to play drums. We wrote music and recorded a demo ourselves the first year 2006, and started playing shows and recorded our EP "Flight of Pegasus" which we self-released the second year 2007. We kept playing shows and made our own merch. We recorded a yet to be released song early 2008, then recorded "Spirited Migration" in spring and began touring outside of Florida, as well as began talking with At A Loss Recordings. In May 2009 "Spirited Migration" was released on At A Loss and we have been heavily touring all year. We've played close to 200 shows to date. MM-How would you describe your sound to someone who was not familiar with your music? "...a rupturing combination of doom wreckage and post-metal advancement...” - Decibel Magazine "Listening to the debut from this Florida duo is like walking through a lush valley while the sky before you turns black." - Alarm Magazine "sounds like Hiroshima but slower" - some guy MM-You released “Spirited Migration” in May. Tell us about it. We recorded "Spirited Migration" in Spring of 2008 with Phillip Cope from Kylesa at the Jam Room in Columbia, SC. The title of the album as well as the artwork refers to a spiritual journey, a path into a new perception and consciousness. Each of the song titles is a different step. Realizing the world of form is a dream and opening your eyes to the formless (Awake In Sleep). Breaking down past ways of thinking that have not worked, survival is threatened, and the need to adapt and change to evolve (Into The Past). Introducing the spiritual journey (Spirited Migration). Growing but fighting to become more aware (Growing Slowly). The journey is difficult but you persist (Weather The Storm). Perceiving a higher state of consciousness (Flight Beyond). Really feeling living things, and becoming a part of nature without labeling the circumstance or being. Finding the source. We belong to the land, the land does not belong to us (Grasping the Awe). The cycle of life, the man leaving the tree, going to the sea, dying and becoming part of the tree again, and the stillness behind all... (Read complete news)
for candlemass and/or organ lovers...
Sun, 14 Jun 2009 19:15:00 +0100"Leif’s work in this album is something he is not much used to in his work with Candlemass in the sense that not only does he handle the bass, but also does the vocals, plays the leads and the primary lyricist and songwriter. Being a man of immense talent and performing exceedingly well in bands like Candlemass and another lesser-known band, Krux it is no surprise that his debut effort hold a candle up to these bands. The music on this album can be described as “Minimalist Organ Modern Doom”. The organ, it must be mentioned is a prop and not a centerpiece around which the band’s music revolves though I must admit that it is certainly an interesting thought. With the help of a church organ in the background, the band achieves what it tries by creating a haunting atmosphere of impending doom." [metal-archives.com] check him out here.
