SOTU Festival 2017: FINAL ACT!

Nionde Plågan Post-metal/screamo from Jönkoping, Sweden. Followed up by their last three releases, this 4-piece is still maturing their sound more than ever. Leaving their early crusty black metal sound behind, they're blending even more genres such as screamo, post-rock and post-metal. Ferocious and emotional vocals, beautiful atmospheric guitar parts, pummeling drums - fans of bands such as Envy, Light Bearer and Fall Of Efrafa will definitely not be disappointed.

The Fifth Alliance 5-piece from Breda, The Netherlands who blend blackish sludge, gut-wrenching doom and hypnotic (post)hardcore/metal. The Fifth Alliance leaps forward in terms of intelligent arrangements, subtle passages and building layers of atmosphere, led by Silvia Berger’s heartfelt screaming of pure emotion and beauty, merging ‘Death Poems’ into their heaviest outburst yet.

Trachimbrod Screamo infused shoegaze from Stockholm/Malmö, Sweden. Their music is characterised by catchy drums and jangly guitar melodies combined with unique and emotional vocals. Even though the music tends to evolve from record to record, the unmistakable ‘Trachimbrod sound’ is always present.

Snøgg Experimental black metal duo from Velenje, Slovenia. They use a lot of improvisation and often float in different extreme musical genres. Snøgg call their music freeride black metal.

slo daze Ambient side-project of Daan van Houten from Amsterdam based psych/black metal band Project Nefast.

14 January 2017: Mirrors for Psychic Warfare (w. Scott Kelly of Neurosis) US / Black Decades @ OCCII, Amsterdam

Mirrors for Psychic Warfare

Scott Kelly —Neurosis— and producer/engineer/sonic warlord Sanford Parker are restless. This inquietude has culminated in another collaboration (the two work together in Corrections House, a project that also features the talents of Mike IX Williams of EYEHATEGOD, and Bruce Lamont of yakuza). While Corrections House seem hell-bent on impersonal bludgeon and unfettered terror, Mirrors for Psychic Warfare are far more restrained. The band's haunting self-titled debut is the sonic manifestation of insomnia, complete with the tossing, the turning, and the perennial dread that comes with facing another shabby daylight. The five songs lurch and pulsate across a desolate landscape with an almost curious obsessiveness. While Mirrors for Psychic Warfare may remind some of the best work on the classic Cold Meat Industry label, there is enough familiar Kelly/Parker-isms scattered throughout to keep the album stimulating. It is a work with more in common with a fever or a fitful wraith than a record. Official page Bandcamp

Old Soul's ”Blue Heron” is finally out in all its brutal splendour and emotional tension. This is the time to get really excited. Here is a few words from them: 

We leave for Europe in a couple weeks, everything helps at this point. We are all broke but so excited to make this journey to see great friends again! If there was ever a time to share and spread the word now would be the time. We would love to see people sing along and almost all our tour dates are listed to come say hello!

Catch them live at OCCII, Amsterdam on 22 June 2016, with Cassus and Lentic Waters. More details here.
