Korpiklaani NZ tour 2013

I'm a big fan of the band, been playing their songs on the show for years; even their non-alcohol based ones. 

So excited for this one, I don't wanna miss out & since I don't like leaving the house I'll be sure to have a beer beer, some wooden pints to turn this journey man into a happy little boozer once more. So hide your riches, lets drink!
we take no responsibility for all the eye rolls at the terrible song title puns

Notes for hfhshow 30 July 2013

MERCENARY- Through our Darkest Days

• Title track from this Danish bands upcoming new album. Out now in US & Europe, do not know NZ/OZ release date.

CLUTCH- Promoter

• Clutch vocalist, Neil Fallon, features/guests on the up coming Soulfly album. Clutch's latest album "Earth Rocker" is worth checking out as well.

DEATH DEALER- Hammer Down

• Ross the Boss's new band. Self titled new album (judging by cover) has all your sci-fi fantasy warfare needs covered.

HUNTRESS- Zenith

HUNTRESS- I want to fuck you to death

• Touring the 'states with Lamb of God, Testament & Killswitch Engage.

THE OCEAN- Bathyalpelagic II: The Wish in Dreams

• New video, (NSFW due to tits, though I haven't watch all of it thanks to my computer not being able to handle more than one thing at a time)

AUTOPSY- Running from the Goathead

• New/recent album: The Headless Ritual

MAMMOTH GRINDER- Barricades

LORD DYING- Water under a burning bridge

• New album , 'Summon the Faithless'  out now on Relapse Records

MURDOK- Brain face

• An example of technical, abrasive, and extreme lunacy from this killer unsigned Irish three piece.

SUSPERIA- Standalone

• New, as yet untitled, album coming soon: this is a free download (like their FB page to get it)

ROLO TOMASSI- French Motel

• Touring Australia, rather extensively: including a show with ex-pat kiwi's Jurassic Pengiun on the bill.

ERIMHA- Condemned to Death

•  'Reign through Immortality' out now via Victory Records, go check it out & support these Canadians as judging by the band promo shot for the album one of the guys looks likes he needs to see a dentist..

KORPIKLAANI- Iron Fist

• Motorhead cover, after news that the legendary band (Motorhead, not Korpiklaani) have released information on their next, upcoming album. I played this song on Monday, and now on Thursday as I finally get around to posting this, it has been announced that these guys are touring NZ in October!!!

DAMNED SPRING FRAGRANTIA- D.M.Z

• Brutally intense, unrelenting and outright savage, this Italian bands new album 'Divergences' wouldn’t be misplaced as the soundtrack to the leveling of humanity, as 10 tracks of down-tuned 8 strings flesh out an unrelenting aural bludgeoning. Layering ruthless riffs over frenetic drumbeats and intricate timing changes and a bass tone that makes you want to prolapse at the sheer thought of it, Damned Spring Fragrantia’s debut album is a bold, chest-beating emergence onto the European metal scene.

MANEGARM- Wake the Gods

• This Swedish viking/black metal band released their latest album 'Legions of the North' a wee while back & I had lined this song up to play then, but only now finally got around to playing it. If you like what you hear, these guys have almost 20years & 7 or 8 albums, and as an added bonus the cover art not only features viking warriors welding axe & sheild, a snake and wolf, but the center piece is a mystical bare breasted woman with horns & a half skull for a face. 

NEXILVA- Eschatologies

• Full bore progressive death metal from a bunch of UK lads barely out of their teens

THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER- Their Beloved Absentee

•  New album 'Into the Everblack' out now on Metal Blade records, a kiwi did their artwork for this album, you're missing out if you haven't picked up this album yet!

DEW-SCENTED- Confronting Entropy

• I found this on a random (possibly recent) compilation from Prosthetic records.
