Fourth album of the Mexican Heavy doom band Consolamentum out now

  We are very proud to announce the fourth album of the Mexican Heavy doom band Consolamentum, titled "Ophitas" that will be released on October 25th for #defoxrecords #invinciblerecords The mastermind Martin Martinez aka @Martin Xipe Totec (Xipe Totec Oficial , Yatrogeny, Miquian) gives us a journey that challenges conventional rock, eleven songs that sound like a perfect mix of Black Sabbath, Candlemass, Cathedral, Altar Of Oblivion, with tribal, transcendental sounds and references to pre-Hispanic culture, a one of a kind band, extraordinary, fascinating, surprising! Doom Stoner Metal based on ancient Gnostic heresies; and on this occasion, overtones of Luciferianism. The mysterious sound that comes from the transverse flute; the organ, the bells and the ecclesiastical choirs in Latin can be fused with various voice styles. Maybe you want to put on your “doomer hood” and listen to the grief… - Martin Martinez: Guitars, Drums, Transverse flute, Vocals, organ, piano, Mix at

REVIEW Promotional Cd Area Sismica volume 4

  I received a rock and metal compilation called Area Sismica volume 4 in CD format from Italy and promoted by Mirko DeFox, producer and promoter with his various activities.. I am a big fan of such initiatives, compilations in general. Although they seem to be a medium of the past and are losing their relevance. Due to lack of time I do not like to surf the vast, endless expanse of the world wide web. Now, about the musical content. How can I handle it?
