COVER OF THE MONTH 2025: JANUARY

Cover Of The Month 1/12, January: “Armageddon” (Bathory)

Time for another year with a monthly cover, to pay tribute to bands that have influenced us in one way or another. Overall, we will mainly make our own interpretations and versions of bangers that made us rockin’ air guitar, bang our heads and simply go wild over the years. The first time we did the ‘Cover Of The Month’ project was in 2015. Now, like then, it’s a study in other bands’ songwriting and deeper diving into the structures, arrangements and techniques behind the timeless classics that once caught our attention in the first place. Hopefully we’ll get some guests to join us this time around too.

First off is this gem from one of the most influential bands and albums of all time, Bathory shouldn’t need any further introduction.
“Armageddon” is just one pick from an abundance of immortal classics on this album, being released in a time when nothing was really labeled or carved out yet when it comes to the countless extreme metal subgenres that soon would follow. Just fast and loud unhinged madness.

Can’t ignore the total punk vibe of the whole thing either, having these guys clearly not being able to play (what most ignorant people would consider) very well, yet not giving a shit and just doing their thing anyway, and believing in it. Proving that with that attitude, you can accomplish the most sensational things and completely change what everyone thought they knew about music.

Tonight we raise our cups and toast in angels’ blood!

Recorded by Jocke D-takt at Studio Mangel, December 2024. Mixed and mastered by Kenko at Communichaos, January 2025.

We have also compiled all 12 covers as an album to those who missed out ‘COVER OF THE MONTH 2015’ or who wants to refresh their memory. Listen HERE!

End of 2023

We’re at the very end of 2023, a rather slow and sluggish year by our standards as we also had hoped to do and take on more than we managed. At least we played some seriously sick and memorable shows. Always a privilege to see some new places and revisit ol’ ones. Thanks to everyone who came to see us live, booked and hosted us. Also really stoked about the outcome and the warm reception that the S.C.U.M. EP was given. Cheers to all involved and thanks to everyone who gave it a spin and those who bought a copy. To everyone else who in one way or another supports what we do, helps our cause and pushed us forward during the past year, we salute you.

There are already plans for new projects, more gigs and noise. Join the underground movement!

C.Y. Fest – Confirmed!

We will play at the next years C.Y. Fest in Los Angeles, USA. It was 7 years since we played in LA. Looking forward to this!
