Murw "Kanker" out now on lp and cd.
Long awaited debut album of Murw out now on lp and cd. One of The Netherlands' best kept secrets return with a truly stunning and groundbreaking album of progressive death/doom metal. Extraordinary, unconventional and creative songwriting, this album is nearly impossible to compare with any existing band or fit in any existing genre. Murw is not a newcomer one-day-fly performing a cheap, new gimmick trying to stand out. Throughout their history, dating back to the early 90s where the band already did shows supporting Emperor for example, they've shown a unique own style of music, now finally culminating into their debut album "Kanker".
Produced with the utmost priority and care and carefully following the wishes and requests of the band. This record sounds and looks as good as possible and as intended by band and label. Dedicated lp-mastering for optimal analog sound, resulting in more dynamic sound that perfectly fits to the diverse songwriting and fluctuating structures.
Recorded and mixed at Vato Loco, Austria, by M. Schirenc (Pungent Stench, Hollenthon), August 2010. Vinyl pre-mastering at Tuanti, The Netherlands, by A. Peeks (Heimdalls Wacht, Ancestors Blood), March 2012.
Full color sleeve and insert (lp) and full color 8 page foldout booklet (cd) with lyrics and drawings. Both lp and cd are pressed in West-Germany. No DMM-mastering for the lp (if you want your records to sound digital, you might as well listen to mp3s).
Also we're fed up with low quality mp3 and shitty youtube rips on the internet so I have uploaded the entire album here to listen:
http://heidenshart.bandcamp.com/album/kankerCd available for 10 euro + postage;
