Also, someone remind me to give this album a proper looking at some point, as it sounds pretty boss.

Was it me? Album is not on too many 2012 lists here. A terrific sludge/doom journey. Listen in FLAC if you can!

I have just stumbled on this one...

Good stuff. You might wanna check their "Sounding The Siren Song In Vain" album. Austin Lunn of Panopticon did the backing vocals.

How the fuck did I miss this EP last year.

This was not released on an e.p. last year It is a song off their full length called 'Mass V'

Solid debut Mindshifter by Slovak black/death band Empyrion:

I can say with certainty that this is one of the greatest EPs ever made. Utterly beautiful black metal.

I had a brief listen to them as they're on the same label. I didn't think it was that good though. The vocals ruin it somewhat. Far too distorted for the sake of it to my ears.

And Tanner, I'd have to regard that as a good thing much of the time

But why mention Thantifaxath in the 2012 thread when it's from 2011?

Haha, actually I have no idea. That's another brainfart for me today then

Totally missed out Fauna's latest. This one is fucking brilliant. Album name is Avifauna. Released on 17th December 2012

Just came across this. It was released on 12th December 2012.



BANDCAMP

If you like, you should check out their previous EP as well. Really good stuff.

Now this is an interesting little band. I suppose I'd call it avant-garde doom. There's bit of jazz and a bunch of other stuff in their sound.

I will always take the side of the actual band themselves = bandcamp. Screw what the label says!!!

I don't get what you mean. It says on the bandcamp that it was first released 2012, and there are reviews that go back to 2012.

It even says on the right hand side:

Quote:
Vassafor is Black Metal incorporating various forms of extreme dark music in particular doom as evidenced on self titled MCD/MLP "Vassafor". The 2 song tape from 2010 "Promo MMX" was reissued via Canadian label Serpents Head Reprisal in Jan MMXI. Debut full length "Obsidian Codex" was been released on double LP in MMXII via Parasitic Records.

I don't get what you mean.

What does the April 2013 date mean then? Im guessing but maybe it was leaked in 2012 and the actual FINAL PRODUCT was released by the band themselves earlier this year, hence the April 2013 date?

I assume Bandcamp dates sometimes reflect the date of uploading to the service rather than the physical release. They seem to be wrong rather often. But that's not consistent either, dunno what's up with them.

Why are you so fixated on the April 2013 bit? There's no info explaining anything about it and there's two instances explaining of a vinyl release in 2012. There's no reason to assume it was leaked, and if so why would they say it was put out by a label in 2012 and would reputable webzines review a leaked version?

As has been said, it's probably when it was put on bandcamp or an error of some kind.

Probably this. I guess care about it because I use bandcamp so much. I don't want to see bandcamp's integrity disrupted in any way, shape or form.

My bad Paz, I didn't read the fine print on the bandcamp page. Nice rec, looking forward to hearing the whole thing.

Bandcamp info is put in by the band or label, nothing to do with bandcamp itself.
