Introducing... Original British Black Metal

Guest

The first 2 releases from Unholy Design Records are unleashed. Ethernal, the truly English-sounding Black Metal band who have been quietly forging their craft for 7 years and Speirling, a relatively new project who present us with a unique take on early Black Metal.

...and a track from each band will appear on the covermount CD of the forthcoming May/June issue of Zero Tolerance Magazine (this Friday).

Prices are £11 / €15 / $22 US (inc. postage) for both CDs together or £7 / €10 / $15 US (inc. postage) each. Visit the shop at www.unholydesign.com to purchase. If you use a different currency or don't use Paypal, contact us for alternative prices and arrangements.

I thought this was going to be a Venom thread.

there is a typical english sound?

??

I can understand when people labelling something as "south american style" or "east european style" because they differ a lot from the usual US, Scandinavian or anything but I can't get an idea of "typical english black metal"

I'll give them a listen.

I don't know if this is the case on many metal guys but when I see a bandname I don't like I'm not really tempted to give them a listen. Speirling sounds more obscure and original (partly because I don't know what that means) e.g. than the word x+word y combinations

Pretty stupid in my opinion! Bands should play music instead of trying to get famous!

The phrase "world class black metal" cracks me up, haha! "world class" usually describes a hotel or a golf course or something...

English black metal typically sucks!

everthing about both these bands suck. weak music, imagery, and throwing words around "world class" and "original" isn't helping.

Goat Molestor....thats some real UK metal right there.

Agreed on Goat Molestor!!!

Regarding typical English sound? Try boring, uninspired, suicidal copycats and the like...

There are a few good ones but generally they all want to be Xasthur or an inferior copy of other suicidal bands...
