V:28 - VioLution CD € 10
"What does the end of the world sound like? On this, their third full-length album, Norway's V:28 bravely and unflinchingly imagine a world destroyed by nuclear warfare. Mixing grim atmospherics with cold, mechanical industrial and war-mongering blackened death metal, the band redefines dystopia. VioLution is nothing short of the 21st Century war machine turned to music, and a chilling, beautiful album at that... In summary, if this is war, enlist now and head for the frontlines---VioLution is one battle every self-respecting metalhead should fight in." 5/5 - Anti Music

VIRUS - The Agent That Shapes The Desert CD € 11
The Agent That Shapes The Desert is the third album from Norwegian avantgarde rock maestros VIRUS, its title and its lyrical themes reflect the red desert sands on the cover as well as the shifts of the various lifeforms and elements of a planet headed for extinction. Musically, The Agent... is the most diverse VIRUS album yet. It combines the dissonant guitar-washes of mastermind Czral's former band VED BUENS ENDE and The Black Flux with the outlandish nature of the band's Carheart debut, while simultaneously moving in several new directions at once. At the same time, The Agent... is the band's most coherent, catchy and well-produced effort yet, and should appeal to music addicts across a vast spectrum of genres. Czral's trademark sideways riffs are perfectly underscored by the concise, efficient drumming of Einz and Bjeima's adventurous bass lines. The vocals, also courtesy of Czral, are stronger than ever, at times reminiscent of a choir of mad preachers, at others subtle and brooding, giving off an air of desperation. Digipak with 8 panel fold-out insert.
