Gibraltar's one-man DSBM project Days Of Our Lives is pleased to announce the release of their latest single.
Sole musician and GMA's Gibraltar correspondent comments: "The single is entitled "And For A Moment The World Just Stopped" and is the first single to be release for the upcoming Days of Our Lives album. Over the years the band has explored and expanding in different ways and this album I am hoping will showcase all that has happened. The single itself features no metal tracks but rather a classical piano piece and a bonus track which hopefully will set the mood for the album. It will be released on Monday the 19th of August on my own label No Remorse Records (Gibraltar) and will be limited to 100 copies only. This will also be the last release that Days of Our Lives will be solely myself in the recordings as the album features a singer to handle some parts, but all music, lyrics and most of the main vocal duties are still going to be handled by me". https://www.facebook.com/pages/Days-Of-Our-Lives-Official/292415740773818  By GMA's India correspondent Farzand Bawa
There was a time, not too long ago though, when Kolkata did not have a single Metal band to offer, Hybrid Metal infused genres that used to be taken as Metal and the scene was predominant with people and bands with at least ideas on how Metal should be done and with the lack of listening disorder, especially to the basic Heavy, Thrash or Old School Black and Death Metal, people had simply no idea or interest to the foundation and building pillars of this genres. It was shameful how you could get hold of so called Metal fans or band members and ask them basic questions on metal and you could get a strange face as if you asked them about String Theory. Totally parasitic and atrociously weak, the scene slowly gained a name, sarcastically, Corekata, from metalheads outside the city. The scene never could attain anything nationally, nor internationally. The decay and stagnation slowly crept in and that was the time the very first strike of Metal and hope was manifested as Putried Ascendancy emerged. Originally just featuring a Facebook page and a couple of old online compilations, Putrid Ascendancy slowly sowed the seeds of awakening and self realization among city metalheads together, illuminating everything that is metal and criticized everything that is not. The work of Putrid Ascendancy turned easier with the sudden up-rise of notable and skilled metal bands that mushroomed out of nowhere, among these bands were: Purgation, Necrodeity, Armament, Mortar, Strangulate and Dead Veneration. These bands are to be noted for their strong music in Death, Thrash and Grind metal. The first ever Ritual Ascendancy Fest was held in Kolkata with these bands on 4th August and immediately was applauded for such underground charm and brilliant sets by each bands. Eyes were opened, minds were f**ked, Determinations grew stronger and Metal got louder. The second version of Ritual Ascension Fest named WAR.CULT.SUPREMACY is set to protest Bongo-Bhonga or rather conceptualized as the unification of both the Bengal terrain as ONE. War.Cult.Supremacy stands as Militant Metal War against remaining parasitic metal trends and posers and this time East Bengal shall unleash its wrath in two gigantic proportions. Black / Death Bestail Regiment Nafarmaan (Formed by Canadian Black Metal band Weapon's Ex Drummer - Nohttzver) and bone crushing Thrash Militia Enmachined shall bring caustic torment to all posers, They shall be supported by West Bengal's Terror Adversarialists Necrodeity, Brutal Holocausters Purgation, Thrashing Warfare Specialists Armament and black witching blood shedders Kapalin. Be there this September to witness the destruction! Global Metal Apocalypse is proud to announce the collaboration with our brothers aforementioned. More updates and special features coming soon!!
