Despondency
 |
 |
Konstantin of Gallery
of Darkness is also active in the brutal Death Metal act Despondency.
Despondency was formed
in early 1999 by Dirk Janßen (drums) who is also involved in the
progressive Death Metal act of trees and orchids and Steffen Ilm (guitars)
in order to create some violent Death Metal in the vein of Suffocation,
Cannibal Corpse and Deeds of Flesh. At once there was a strong thirst for
action and the first songs evolved in this time. In April ´99 Konstantin
Lühring joined Despondency, shortly after that, in May ´99,
Heiko Lewien (guitars) and Patrick Schwarz (bass) got in on. The lyrical
concept of Despondency (what could be vaguely translated as "despair" or
"hopelessness") can be described as a very misanthropic an nihilistic one.
The idea to compose such lyrics developed from more resignation as a result
of the irresponsible behaviour of human beings towards their environment
and nature. Despondency is of the opinion that these individuals should
be sweeped away from planet earth , but virtually this isn´t necessary
because of the fact that humanity will succeed in doing so by itself. So
far Despondency played several gigs with Gallery of Darkness, of trees
and orchids, Tears of Decay, BK 49, Insane and Senescence - thus the whole
unholy East Frisian Metalhorde. Further gigs are planned for the future!
Despondency are going
to enter the Soundlodge Studios (Gallery of Darkness, of trees and orchids,
Obscenity ...) in February
2001. You´ll be kept up to date when their first output of unspeakable
terror
will be let loose on
wicked humanity ... .

GOREZONE

Gorezone play Death Metal. Sick, brutal, grinding! And now it is time: the first record is out! “Erase the scum“ kicks ass. Eight high-speed-grenades with guttural grunts, blastbeats an some hardcoreriffing. Cool songtitles such as Anal Service, MurderDeathKill and Spasmodical Hacksaw Movements. It was recorded in late 2001 in the Soundlodge Studio (i.g. Obscenity) together with Rock´n´Roll-Chief Jörg Uken. “Erase the scum“ is availuable for lousy eight Euro including stamps and package. And best of all: in the booklet you´ll find a supreme foto-collage with a lot of beer and tits instead of boring songtexts… Just another reason to get it!
The facts: Gorezone come
from Oldenburg in northern Germany. The band was founded in late
1995. What followed: line-up-changes and the usual problems. Two demos
on tape: „Carry the twin“ 1997 (death metal, raw, primitive) and „Eat the
world alive“ 1999 (death too, not as primitive as the former one, but 100%
in your face). Both demos are still availuable and can be ordered each
for 4EUR or together with the new record for 14EUR. Some local livegigs
so far. Since the beginning of the year some gigs a bit more far out. For
example in Swiss, in Bonn and in Berlin. Gorezone are always heading forwards
to play more gigs.
Gorezone rock!
