1176.0. "Celestial Season" by SUBSYS::MSOUCY () Tue Aug 20 1996 06:42

    
    This is for a doom band called Celestial Season. I grabbed this awhile
    back while talking to a guy that works at the local Newbury Comics. I
    am really getting into this one also, Violins (2 female players), add
    to the atmospheric or ambience to the disc. It plods along nicely, a
    couple instrumentals at least on this disc, although the words to the
    songs show that there is more like 4 instrumentals across the disc. 
    
    Gravely/growly vocals, some speaking in some of the songs, but on a low
    level. I took my band listing that I have been updating for bands to
    get to NC and the guy there hadn't heard of most of them! Guess I will
    have to call Century Media and get their catalog and order some stuff
    here when profit sharing gets here! I'll have to check CDNow for other
    listings from this band also.

	re: .1 You should stay away from those nasty chics... :)_ss Why?! More fun! ;-)
1176.3	Check"My dying bride" if you like CS	KAOFS::C_MENENDEZ	CARLOS, SOO ONT MCS (705)945-7862	`Wed Aug 21 1996 15:39`	8
	Also be sure to check "My dying bride". They have many CDs, but I've seen one at the stores on special containing "the angel and the dark river" +a live CD. You mean you haven't called Century Media? Also be sure to call Relapse Records in Penn. Big, informative catalog!! Carlos
1176.4	MDB is a little on my extreme end!	SUBSYS::MSOUCY		`Thu Aug 22 1996 06:19`	26
	Hi Carlos, I have 1 MDB, rather MUCH more brutal than CS is in the vocal department there! I sent another message to someone else with my mailing address for CM. As for Relapse, I've sent in the little cards included with some of the cd's I've purchased recently (for the win something free drawing) but never received a catalog. May have to cruise their website (if they have one). MDB is a little on the far end of what I like to listen to (See that 'Pril!), but I do like CS as it is interesting with the violins along with the music, plus very HEAVY DUTY low end, etc... BTW - I like several of the bands on that Beauty in Darkness CD, a couple for instance: PYOGENESIS HYPOCRISY Theatre of Tragedy (can't wait for this to come out, next month?) Crematory (not too bad) End of Green and some others on it, Tiamat's "Whatever that hurts" is on it too from wildhoney cd, along with Therion's "To Mega Therion".
1176.5	catalog from CM on the way!	SUBSYS::MSOUCY		`Thu Aug 22 1996 08:34`	15
	re: .3 Carlos, Just got email from person at Century Media with the AOL.COM mail address and he said "Patience, my boy" as his subject on the message. He said they were out of catalogs and ordered 10,000 more and has sent me one out today first class mail (snail mail) so I should see it probably early next week (maybe by saturday). So I'll have something to read. He must have seen my last message I sent via the newsgroups the other day and it reminded him! At least I think it's a him! Mike
1176.6		TPLAB::VLASIU	Sorin Vlasiu - Brussels, Belgium	`Thu Aug 22 1996 09:56`	7
	Re. Mike I had the occasion to listen a song from Crematory and I found it excellent (Tears of ???). I've read also a very good review of their CD (they were classified as gothic metal). It's a German band. Sorin
1176.7	Tears of Time for Crematory	SUBSYS::MSOUCY		`Thu Aug 22 1996 10:10`	10
	Hi Sorin, You listened to any of these new bands I've been getting into lately? I see that Theatre of Tragedy has their debut due out I think next month! Crematory - Tears of Time, and it's on the Beauty in Darkness disc I just recently picked up. Not bad, along with some others on it too.
1176.8		TPLAB::VLASIU	Sorin Vlasiu - Brussels, Belgium	`Fri Aug 23 1996 04:32`	8
	Hi Mike, I have to reactivate myself as I lost a bit the contact with recent HM evolution. But all these bands like Angra, Theatre of Tragedy, Deviate, Crematory, Carcass, Grip Inc., Psycho Drama, interest me and I'll try to catch-up a bit. Sorin
