Nizozemski brutal death metalci The Monolith Deathcult so končali s snemanjem novega albuma, ki pri Karmageddon Media zaradi zamude pri snemanju, izide v začetku prihodnjega leta, namesto novembra letos. /M.P./

Z delovanjem je prenehala nizozemska založba Cold Blood Industries, ki je imela pod sabo bande kot As It Burns, Monolith in Katafalk, ki so sedaj ostali brez založbe. V založbi sta bila polno zaposlena dva človeka, do sedaj pa so izdali 25 albumov. Za to so se odločili zaradi prenasičenosti trga ekstremnega metala, kar je pripeljalo do slabe prodaje albumov (tudi internet je pripomogel k tem). /M.P./

V zadnjem tednu so izšli naslednji albumi: HYPOCRISY: The Arrival, DAMAGEPLAN: New Found Order, VINTERSORG: The Focusing Blur, MACHINE MEN: Scars & Wounds, UFO: You Are Here, ELENIUM: For Giving For Getting, AINA: Days Of Rising Doom - The Metal Opera (box set), APOSTASY: Cell 666, MONSTER MAGNET: Monolithic Baby in S.A. ADAMS: Mutated.

Nizozemski death metalci The Monolith Deathcult pripravljajo material za svoj drugi album The Bloody Fields Of History, ki naj bi izšel proti koncu leta pri Cold Blood Industries. /M.P./

The Crown se sredi novembra odpravljajo na evropsko turnejo, kjer jih bodo spremljali Darkest Hour in Monolith Deathcult. Ustavili se bodo tudi v Ljubljani (glej Koncerti). /M.P./
