Once again winds of change blow on the
battlefields of Annihilatus. Centurion and Warmachine were
let go a few months ago and after a couple of months' break, three new
songs were recorded. One of them will be available on Northern
Heritage's Primitive Finland compilation and the two others will be
saved for further plans.
Also, a new bass player joined Annihilatus' legions a few weeks ago, so
expect more brutal approach in the future. LP version of "Blood and
War" is still under work.
Annihilatus' debut CD "Blood and War"
is finally released through Northern Heritage!
The album is available through the band as well as Northern Heritage label for 12 euros +
postage.
Northern Heritage describes the album in the following way:
"Annihilatus is back, presenting now their debut album which totally
blows away their previous efforts. Extremely strong and violent
combination of Destroyer 666, Ildjarn, Burzum, Celtic Frost and Bolt
Thrower, and finally melted into Annihilatus style war metal. Heavy
sound and diverse tracks. 8 page booklet w/ lyrics. Ltd vinyl coming
later this year (no bonus tracks)."
Two songs from the album can be downloaded in mp3 format: Christian Slut and Day of Execution.
Quite a few things have happened and changed
during the last couple of months. First of all, the split LP/CD with Uncreation's
Dawn was cancelled due to practical reasons. Instead, the new
Annihilatus release will be a full-length album "Blood and War"
which will be out through Northern Heritage in CD and LP version.
The CD version will be out within 4-6 weeks and the LP version will be
released during the spring. Both versions will include exactly the same
songs, so no bonus tracks in either version.
Also, two new songs were added for download which will be included in
the new album.
The songs are Christian
Slut and Day of
Execution.
More info through e-mail from annihilatus@annihilatus.bmfi.org
Uploaded rehearsal version of the song Christian Slut to the music page. Read below for more specific info.
Added a new advance track in mp3 format to the music page. This one is called Fanatics
of Battle.
Also more new tracks are ready for the next recording session which
should take place within a month or so. Annihilatus is currently
planning a split release with Uncreation's Dawn through Northern
Heritage in LP & CD format. More information on this release will
follow later as well as more downloads.
Added Annihilation's lyrics for download.
It has been quite silent in the Northern
battlefields, but Annihilatus isn't going anywhere. Just a couple of
quick news for those interested in Annihilatus.
First of all, Annihilatus' e-mail address has changed to annihilatus@annihilatus.bmfi.org,
so be sure to use that address from now on.
A review of Annihilation 10" mLP can be read at DemonicHorde.
Annihilatus was also interviewed by Spanish Final Solution zine,
which is a good-quality UG metalzine with good layout and glossy paper.
Be sure to get a copy of this great zine straight from Final Solution.
Once again the winds of change seem to blow
near Annihilatus' war zone as more info is to be told here. First of
all, these pages have moved from crosswinds.net to here, bmfi.org (in
case you didn't notice that yet). Music and pics sections should be a
lot faster now and work much better. If not, drop me a mail.
Also, Annihilatus t-shirts are available in a couple of weeks for very
limited edition. You see the shirt's design here.
Should you want to order it, do it from Northern Heritage.
Last but definitely not least Annihilatus' destruktive forces were
joined by a new 6-string devastator: Centurion. Beside his main
objective he's forced to scream out shouts of war and anti-religious
propaganda.
Thus, current line-up is:
Centurion - mouth for war & six-string sniper
Serpent - battlefield commands, 5-string sub-machinegun and
propaganda
T "Howitzer" H - artillery & bombardment
Warmachine - bazookas and heavy weaponry
We have had many problems with the pages
(mostly because of Crosswinds) for the last few months, so updating has
not been possible. We are moving these pages somewhere else as soon as
we get a better place for them. Meanwhile we just have to stick here.
First of all I would like to announce that Annihilation 10" mLP
is out - finally! It got released less than two weeks ago by Northern Heritage
and we are more than satisfied with the result. 7 tracks (about 25 mins)
of total war, hate and destruction of religious fucks. This mLP is
limited to 400 copies, so get yourself one before it's too late. Price
should be around 60FIM/$10 U.S. + postage.
Also, these pages have gone through serious update: the biography and pictures
page got updated as well as the index page from
where you can see Annihilatus' new logo. Also, one more mp3 was added on
the music page from the 10" mLP, so be sure to
download this piece of raw
metal.
Uploaded two songs in mp3 format to music page. These two songs are taken from the forth-coming 10" mLP "Annihilation". Report if the links are broken.
Since last news there have been some minor
problems and changes. First of all, these pages have not worked as they
should have and thus I have not updated them until now. This also
included new mp3's which I hope to upload on the pages in near future
and this time for real. Everything should be fixed now and I try to keep
this section more updated.
The split-LP with Nightside has been cancelled. As a
replacement, Northern Heritage will release a 10" mLP of
Annihilatus titled "Annihilation". If no further delays take
place, it should be out in March/April 2001. More info on this on these
pages later.
Northern Heritage has released
Annihilatus cass ep (self-titled) which consists of the 5 demo songs on
"Unholy Mass Destruction" demo-tape. Order your copy from Northern Heritage.
Price should be around 20FIM/$4.
Annihilatus have recorded 8 new and high-explosive songs in their
bunker. Most likely 6 or 7 of these audial attacks will be available on
forthcoming Nightside/Annihilatus 12" split album which will be
released through Northern Heritage label.
Also some mp3's will be added on these pages later. Stay tuned for more
information in near future.
Annihilatus' first interview can be read at Charon's Chronicles.
Annihilatus have made a record deal with Northern
Heritage. NH will release Annihilatus demo (previously known as "Unholy
Mass Destruction") on a tape. Name will be announced later.
NH will also release Annihilatus/Nightside 10" split album (name
t.b.a.) later this year (probably fall '00). This 10" will feature new
and unrelased material from Annihilatus and older, but yet unreleased
material from Nightside.
Annihilatus will record new songs for this coming split in a couple of
weeks.
Added some live photos to pictures page.
Annihilatus played its first gig on 20th of
May at S-Osis in Turku.
Session drums were played by Beleth of Nightside.
Some material (pics and/or livesongs) from the gig will be added to these pages later in near future if everything goes as planned.
Also some minor updates done to these pages.
Rasputin the Warmachine joined Annihilatus' line-up to play destruktive 4-string mutilator.
Added three songs in mp3 format to music page. These songs are taken from the "Unholy Mass Destruction" demo. You can download those mp3's here.
These homepages officially opened. Some songs
should be available soon in mp3 format on these pages.
Currently Annihilatus is working on new material.
