BLACK METAL NEWS & REVIEWS
Newsletter #40 - March 17th, 2022
Hello,

Happy St. Patrick's Day for any ginger people out there. You know, Saint Patrick was well known for his massive Black Metal vinyl collection, and would often be seen wearing a Deathspell Omega shirt.

Wow, that leads me smoothly to my next point, as Deathspell Omega just so happened to have announced a new album this week, "The Long Defeat", due for release next Wednesday. Tool also announced a new album is in the works. Coincidence? Deathspell Omega's lineup always was a bit of a mystery...

In other news, Negative Plane revealed their first album in over 10 years, and Lord Belial revealed their first album in almost 14 years, both should be something to look forward to in the coming months. Also, Drudkh felt compelled to release a new music video ahead of schedule, Ceremonial Castings revealed a surprise cover of a Marilyn Manson song, and Archgoat are working on a new EP barely a few months after their last album came out. Busy times.

Oh yeah, be sure to check out the latest Acherontas album, "Malocchio", now streaming in full.

No new reviews this month, however I've updated site permissions to allow more users review access, if they so desire.

More stuff below.

Cheers,
Imperator

They don't necessarily have to be albums from the 80s and 90s, as enough time has passed and enough evolution has happened for releases from around 2000-2010 (o ...
