24/7/2022

Photo taken by Alexis Scholtz

South African post metallers Constellatia are releasing their official music video from "Empyrean" which can now be viewed via the official Season Of Mist channel HERE. "Empyrean" is taken from the full-album 'The Language of Limbs' which was released via Season of Mist on the 19th of June 2020.

A personal note from Keenan - Constellatia:

"I remember us wanting to write a very basic song, structurally speaking, so it takes on the verse / chorus / verse / chorus / bridge / chorus form; a pop song in essence. Thematically, Empyrean is about obsession and ecstasy, about unrelenting passion and being consumed by it all. The bridge is a musical highlight for us as a band so far, one of the special moments from The Language of Limbs. It feels good to close the chapter on this first incarnation, and to look ahead to the future and more music!"

But there's more! On the 15th of August 2022 Season of Mist will officially reveal the album title, cover artwork and release date of the brand new Constellatia album.

Their previous album 'The Language of Limbs' was originally released on November 15, 2019 and soon after, the four piece landed a worldwide record deal with Season of Mist. The pressings are available in various formats HERE.

Adam Hill - Rhythm guitar

8/1/2022

So we now know who the winners of the GMA Awards 2021 were, but to wrap up the event in it's entirety and bid farewell to 2021 and usher in 2022, we must turn to the last bunch of awards - 'Metal Release By Country / Area'.

Usually these would include the flag of the band's nation, but given the events in Afghanistan this year among other political turmoil, I felt it would be prudent to forgo any flags and just list the winners.... so without further ado here are the....

South African Post Metallers Constellatia to re-release 'The Language Of Limbs' via Season Of Mist

6/5/2020

South African post metal band Constellatia are announcing the re-release of their acclaimed debut album 'The Language of Limbs' on various physical formats. The new pressings will be out on June 19 and are available for pre-ordering HERE.

'The Language of Limbs' was originally released on November 15, 2019 and soon after, the four piece landed a worldwide record deal with Season of Mist. The album can already be found on all digital streaming platforms HERE.

Consttellatia comments:-

"We hope everyone is keeping safe during these unprecedented times. We are making the most of our interrupted lives by working on record number two. Today, we are thrilled to announce that pre-orders for the Season of Mist pressing of our debut album are now live, as well as a slew of new t-shirts (all designed by Rouleaux van der Merwe)."

The cover artwork of 'The Language of Limbs' can be found below, together with the track list.

1. All Nights Belong to You
2. In Acclamation
3. Empyrean
4. The Garden

Hailing from Cape Town, South Africa, Constellatia is the collaborative vision of Gideon Lamprecht and Keenan Oakes, founders of well-known acts Crow Black Sky and Wildernessking respectively.

'The Language of Limbs' is essentially a post-metal record with black metal and progressive influences, and a healthy dose of ambience and atmosphere; always deeply engaging with a flair for the romantic and nostalgic. "It is a record that came from a place of desperation; a musical outlet for the years of hardship both members endured in their personal lives." Gideon Lamprecht comments. "It's an album about obsession and overcoming. It's a triumphant record." adds Keenan Oakes.

Formed in September 2018, and enlisting the talents of a few key collaborators, Constellatia soon completed work on the beautiful and emotional ride that is 'The Language of Limbs'. While the drums (Played by Lawrence Jaeger) and vocals were engineered by Daniel Thackwray at City Varsity, Cape Town, all other instruments were recorded by Lamprecht at his home studio in Glencairn, where he also mixed and mastered 'The Language of Limbs'. The album features additional and high class guest vocalists, namely Alison Rachel of Honeymoan and renowned singer/songwriter Lucy Kruger, and is an absolute must-have for fans of Cult Of Luna, Opeth, Pink Floyd or Wolves In The Throne Room.

South Africa's Vulvodynia unleashes album through Lacerated Enemy Records‏

9/8/2016

One of the biggest brutal death metal releases this year is the full length by South Africa's Vulvodynia on Lacerated Enemy Records. Titled 'Psychosadistic Design', it's everything you would expect from a top-of-the-line brutality-infused death metal album. Featuring guest appearances from members of the best bands in the genre like Waking the Cadaver, Cerebral Bore, Kraanium, Within Destruction, Acrania, Ingested and others, a new level of sickness has been breached here. Extremely corpulent, the music is thriving on sickness, and the whole album pulsates like a goddamn the motherf*cker. As expected from this label, the packaging is impeccable and all steps have been taken to ensure that this causes waves in the underground.

Track list:

1. Psychosadistic Design
2. Drowned In Vomit
3. King Emesis [Feat. Alex Terrible of Slaughter To Prevail]
4. Castration Mutilation [Feat.Som Pluijmers of ex-Cerebral Bore, Chance To Die]
5. Flesh Tailor
6. Unparalleled Insubordination [Feat. Don Campan of Waking The Cadaver]
7. Grotesque Schizophrenia[Feat.Martin Funderud of Kraanium]
8. Lord Of Plagues
9. Depraved Paraphilia [Feat. Adam Warren of Oceano & Chrissy Jones of ClawHammer]
10. Forced Fecal Ingestion
11. Umthakathi [Feat. Chris Butterworth of Crepitation]
12. Bestial Insemination
13. Wall of Corpses
14. Bonus track Triple O.G. Slamdown [Ft. Luke Griffin of Human Error, Acrania & Jason Evans of Ingested]
