Florida death metal band Eulogy has re-issued its discography as a limited edition CD and vinyl album on Dark Symphonies Records. The recording features the 1993 EP The Essence, which is both heavily bootlegged and even more insanely overpriced than normal on eBay, and the 1992 demo “Dismal.” Both releases have been remastered from the original analog tapes.
The CD is available from the Dark Symphonies online shop.
Former Bestial Evil (USA) guitarist Kevin Rucker made waves recently when he criticized the Shadow Woods music festival for including bands with members who were possibly associated with the survivalist and allegedly white nationalist group Wolves of Vinland.

Marduk has never, with the exception of the laudable Opus Nocturne, boasted of a deep mystical aura imbuing their music and has rather been known for the sonic onslaught which is their music. The present work sees a band that appears to have long settled for a style and seem content to reproduce it for the benefit of an expecting audience. That is, a very palpable pop mentality has settled in, even if the music has not completely degenerated in form. The artistic vision nonetheless has affected, as is the rule, the manifested aesthetic of the music, and will predictably continue to corrode its quality as it has been doing for the past twenty years or so.

The leading representative of Swedish industry around the world, Ikea, sells furniture of styles from a dozen nations. It has a housewares section, a full-service cafeteria, a donut shop and a grocery store. You can pick up electric lights, tools, houseplants and home decor there.
But conspicuously absent are the most important items from Sweden in recent memory: Swedish death metal and black metal.
