SVARTTJERN-TOWARDS THE ULTIMATE



Agonia Records
2011


Towards The Ultimate makes album number two for Norwegian black death band Svarttjern. Formed in 2003 Svarttjern (which is Norwegian for ''black tarn'') fit in nicely within the current black metal scene. Since the early part of the 90s Norwegian black metal has erupted and Svarttjern are the latest band looking to make a name for themselves with twisted tails of evil. Always the blasphemers, Svarttjern are lead by the capable HansFyrste (of Ragnarok fame). While this isn't anything you've heard a million times before it does captivate you with it's darkness. HansFyrste knows how to draw you in and the band offers a mixture of true black metal and melodic death. It might not win black metal release of the year, but it does have a certain appeal especially if you can't get enough of Norse black metal. Straightforward black metal has a charm all it's own and Towards The Ultimate is true to that spirit. This is more than a worthy follow-up to 2009's Misanthropic Path of Madness and with time Svarttjern just might develop into something truly fierce.

I pride myself on making as little an impact on the environment as I can, but make my living using computers to make music... and I use all Apple products... so I'm feeling really guilty about this right now. 408 CheyTac final.jpg appleguy123 Apr 22, 10:32 PM Because it is the third longest example of drift on PRSI (for now) and since appleguy123 started that one, of course he wants it to continue. Caught! :D Knowing how the PRSI works one naive bump could help me achieve the record. Maadi-Griffin 50BMG Pistol Draythor Apr 13, 04:33 PM GGJstudios Thanks, man. I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in?

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's
