Filed under: New Posts,The Avation Project — Tags: , , — Ceiltsei Cshrivan @ 11:57 am

Holy crap.. I thought 2012 would happen a few more times before I would finish this project. A few things I did not expect – this turned out to be more of a progressive opera concept album, and track names may need to change soon.

Today I will reveal the tracklisting for Glass, and I will reveal information about each track in the coming days and weeks.

Glass

01 – Glass — 8:00
02 – Intro – 2:00
03 – Hangmen – 7:00
04 – Warmth – 2:00
05 – Threw – 6:00
06 – Winter – 9:00
07 – Reflection I – 3:00
08 – Mourn – 10:00

Track time is estimated. After recording, it may shrink or expand a bit.

Videogames n stories

Filed under: Gaming,New Posts — Tags: , — Ceiltsei Cshrivan @ 11:57 am

Anybody who knows me well knows how I am a big fan of Video Games. I am not your typical fan; I do not go out and buy the newest and greatest, instead I prefer to study them and the ideas behind it. Every now and then I find something on the internet that really cracks me up. Call me an anti video-game fan, just like how this is an anti blog – I prefer to read humorous negative things about the hobby than the brave developer stories the media feeds us.

Fantastic and funny article on video-game stories:

Fuck of the Mountain

I chose this as the title of one of my projects after listening to a lot of ‘Hermit Metal’. I guess I got inspired..

This is definitely something I would enjoy playing live. It is all an act, I would have grey hair and wear torn clothing.

Genre – HERMIT METAL!!!!!

A few less known metal / rock bands – July edition Part 2

Filed under: Latest Music,New Posts,The Shelf — Tags: , , , , — Ceiltsei Cshrivan @ 10:32 am

I found out about a couple bands recently and they definitely need your help.

Valis – Fantastic stoner / hard rock band. They are about to release a new album called Dark Matter soon. (and by the time you read this, it will have released a year ago) For now you can check out their excellent debut Vast Active Living Intelligence System, or their easier to find Head Full of Pills or Champions of Magic. Or… you can just check their myspace page – http://www.myspace.com/valis

Dozer – From Sweden, these stoner rockers have gone from Kyuss imitators (in a very good way) to a more psychedelic and original sound. Their new album Beyond Colossal reminds me a bit of Soundgarden in intensity and creativity. http://www.myspace.com/dozerrock

Sig:Ar:Tyr – Canadian folk metal with whispered-like vocals and excellent guitar work. Their debut, Sailing the Seas of Fate, is far more acoustic than their later more eastern sounding Beyond the North Winds. http://www.myspace.com/sigartyr

Let me know what you think.

A few less known metal bands – July edition

Filed under: Latest Music,The Shelf — Tags: , , , — Ceiltsei Cshrivan @ 10:39 am

It pains me to see bands struggle when some are so good. Check these out if you are interested in some more Metal in your collection.

Saros – Progressive black metal. Similar to how Arch Enemy has a female vocalist do death growls, Leila in Saros does a more Black Metal style vocal approach. Latest album is Acrid Plains (Profound Lore Records) released earlier this year.

Centurion’s Ghost – After coming out with their excellent album in 2007 titled ‘The Great Work’, which is a blend of doom, sludge, with some excellent technical writing, I still have yet to find any of these albums anywhere. Currently writing their third album for release later this year.

Anael – Absolutely fantastic German black metal band. Their latest release ‘From Arcane Fires’, based on an old German poem about the end of the world, features great writing and atmosphere with an epic story.

Asva – Their last release was a fair album but ‘What You Don’t Know Is Frontier’, released late 2008, showcases their talent in writing and musicianship. This 8 member drone/doom band writes some emotionally powerful and haunting music.

Feel free to send me comments or suggest some bands.
