Tue, Jan 15 2019: 1349
Norwegian black metal masters 1349 have released a new single, titled 'Dødskamp'. The song has been commissioned by Innovation Norway, Visit Norway and the Munch Museum, who asked four Norwegian artists within four different genres of music to interpret their angle on a freely selected work by the famous painter Edvard Munch. Naturally, 1349 approached the art of Munch from their black metal perspective.
Regarding the single, 1349 guitarist Archaon comments: "Munch is arguably the biggest Norwegian artist throughout history, together with Edvard Grieg, I suppose. His works are tremendously dark and eerie, reflecting a lot of anxiety, pain and loneliness, in the way I perceive them. So, it suited us perfectly. I chose the work "Dødskamp" which directly translates "Death Struggle" and speaks volumes for itself. It was an emotionally Heavy task, and also a completely new way to compose. As well as some very long nights, bereaved of sleep. In the end though, it was worth it. This is the soundtrack to the dilemmas of mortality."
The new single can be found on all digital platforms here and streamed via the official Season of Mist Youtube Channel here. The song is available on vinyl, together with the bonus track "Atomic Chapel" and can be pre-ordered the Season of Mist shop. 1349 will return with a full length release later this year.
The artwork of 'Dødskamp' can be viewed below, together with the track-list.

Tue, Jan 15 2019: MISERY INDEX
Death Metal extremists MISERY INDEX are now premiering the second track taken from their upcoming album 'Rituals of Power'. The new offering is slated for release on March 08th, 2019 via Season of Mist.
The title track is now streaming in the form of a lyric video via Decibel Magazine at the link here.
MISERY INDEX comment on the track: "'Rituals of Power' represents the album’s title track and most musically dynamic offering. We wanted to create something that captured the tension of this modern era; something that conjures visions of civilizational collapse and lost ideals gone astray and embeds them in riffs as monolithic as they are haunting. It is an anthem of hope as much as it is a cautionary tale about the use and abuse of power; an end-times farewell letter from the front lines of history. Turn it up and enjoy the ride…"
The artwork, which is created by Raphael Gabrio, and track details of 'Rituals of Power' can be viewed below.
