Wormwood - The Isolationist

Unlike other bands, WORMWOOD´s "Nattarvet" encompasses a wide spectrum of emotions.

It can be melancholy soundscapes with its screams of woe and somber guitars, it can be dreamlike and epic or unrelenting and vicious. "Nattarvet" blends genres like the changing of seasons, be it black metal, 80's rock, traditional Swedish folk and more. Follow a story throughout emptiness, isolation, hopelessness, wonder, and awe-inspiring nature. The album will travel through the world like a plague. Unrelenting, unstoppable and undeniably magnificent.

Formed in 2014, WORMWOOD have had quite the musical journey. Starting off as a black'n roll band, then turned into a melodic black metal band with folk and rock influences. Now, they have advanced to their true form, which is an unique take on Scandinavian black metal.

Lyrical themes goes from the vastness of the cosmos, northern lore, the hardships and famine of the Sweden 1800-hundreds.

Today's tune and the first single from the album was the magnific "The Isolationist" a tune about solitude. About a man who refuses to leave his home deep in the forest. His old wife dies, yet there he remains and withers away into obscurity.

Death Breath - Death Breath

Sunday, time for a classic.

Yesterday it was the annual Record Store Day, a feast for the still alive stores that do their best to keep the spirit up and sell the music we all love. As in this matter, I am pretty old school, still, buy a lot from the locals and so I did yesterday, love to support the once still around. Got a bunch of records, the bought got really spread as it usually gets during this time, it's not that I get stuck in one genre even if it's been really hard lately, but that I guess is something that you readers already got used to.

This is what I got home with.....

One of the records was the Swedish old-school death metal band DEATH BREATHs debut album "Stinking Up The Night". Got the seven tune EP "Let It Stink" already which I just adore, high-class death metal.

DEATH BREATH featuring Robert Pehrsson (THUNDER EXPRESS/DUNDERTÅGET) and Nicke Andersson (ENTOMBED, THE HELLACOPTERS, LUCIFER, IMPERIAL STATE ELECTRIC) who wanted to return to playing drums and death metal. The members of the band are both members of other bands but do not consider DEATH BREATH to be a side project. The band was formed in 2005 and was originally intended to be named BLACK BREATH but to the band's surprise, the name DEATH BREATH had never been used by a metal band. The band considers their music to be pure death metal, free from seven-string guitars, five string basses and triggered drums. The band's music is influenced by SLAYER, VENOM and BLACK SABBATH, AUTOPSY, CELTIC FROST as well as old horror movies and HP Lovecraft.

Today's tune "Death Breath" is taken from the debut album "Stinking Up the Night", featuring Fred Estby as additional vocals, released in 2006, enjoy!

Blackberry Smoke - Shakin' Hands With the Holy Ghost

My first encounter with Atlanta’s Blackberry Smoke – was few months ago I did the regular visit to the record store (Soundpollution) for monthly purchases of vinyls when the dude (Hej Calle) behind the counter recommended a live album that I just had to have, it was the album "Leave a Scar, Live: North Carolina" So I just said hell yeah, put it in the pile. That record was laying around for a while, was not so surprising given that the pile was pretty big this time.

But once it got aired and put on the record player, it got played more than once. Wow what a freaking swing these guys have .... oh yeah I'm in heaven!

The lineup consists of Charlie Starr (Lead Vocals, Guitar), Richard Turner (Bass, Vocals), Brit Turner (Drums), Paul Jackson (Guitar, Vocals), and Brandon Still (Keyboards).

They have performed throughout the United States as both headliner and as the supporting act for artists such as Zac Brown Band, Eric Church, ZZ Top & Lynyrd Skynyrd. On August 26, 2012, they performed at a charity benefit called the Boot Ride with the cast of Sons of Anarchy, partnered with The Boot Campaign at the Happy Ending Bar and Grill in Hollywood, CA. They performed 20+ dates with Zac Brown Band nationwide in the summer of 2011. Their album Little Piece of Dixie has been featured by Paste Magazine and other publications.

They are now out on tour and will visit Trädgården, Gothenburg today and Tyrol here in Stockholm on sunday. Don't miss it.
