Lucifer's Hammer - Be And Exist - VINYL LP

2024 , the sixth studio album by American rock band AWOLNATION. AWOLNATION titling the fifth album of original songs in 15 years The Phantom Five is about more than just chronology. The number 5 is associated with independence and individualism, major life changes and experiences, all of which influenced the resulting album. It's a collection of ten songs that highlights every different impulse and urge Bruno has learned to master with AWOLNATION in a cohesive, anthemic pastiche of modern music. As he himself admits, it functions almost as a Inchgreatest hitsInch album, in the sense that it offers something for everyone who has followed the band's arc in it's celebrated, shape-shifting way. The first single, InchPanoramic View,Inch stands out with it's sincerity on it's sleeve; in fact, while not necessarily a new direction for AWOL, the idea of a heartfelt ballad being the first track available to fans is emblematic of Bruno's newfound control over every aspect of an album -something that he says might not have happened in previous days. - From upstart, tongue-in-cheek blasts like InchJump Sit Stand MarchInch and InchWhen I Was YoungInch to the Roy Orbison, oldies-inspired ode to beauty and self-destruction InchA Letter to No OneInch and the jangly segue InchCity of NowhereInch calling to mind The Cars and Grandaddy, not to mention guest spots from Dead Sara's Emily Armstrong and Del the Funky Homosapien, The Phantom Five is concerned with trying to find one's way to happiness in a bizarrely upside-down time. Album Tracks 1. Jump Sit Stand March 2. Party People 3. Panoramic View 4. I Am Happy 5. Barbarian 6. Bang Your Head 7. City of Nowhere 8. A Letter to No One 9. When I Was Young 10. Outta Here

Into The Silent Nebula is the third album by Damnation's Hammer featuring eight songs of relentless heavy metal, incorporating the band's trademark doom-laden groove. Once again produced by Mark Mynett, the opus builds on the foundations set by the previous album, InchUnseen Planets, Deadly SpheresInch. The opening salvo of InchSutter CaneInch and InchDo Not Disturb The WatchmakerInch are a riff-laden feast, the former almost chaotic in feel and featuring a brief spoken word part by Aaron Stainthorpe of My Dying Bride! Then InchDo Not Disturb The WatchmakerInch kicks in with it's serpentine groove before descending into a thrashing chorus. The album still retains the huge riffs that Damnation's Hammer is known for, however InchInto The Silent NebulaInch is more adventurous than it's predecessor, for example the companion to the title track - simply called InchThe Silent NebulaInch - is an atmospheric, bluesy instrumental, laid back but still with an ominous feeling. The track closes with a lazy, melodic bassline whilst Sakis from Rotting Christ quotes from the album's title track. This album features spoken word performances by Aaron Stainthorpe (My Dying Bride), Sakis Tolis (Rotting Christ) and Fenriz (Darkthrone). Album Tracks 1. Sutter Cane 2. Do Not Disturb the Watchmaker 3. Outpost 31 4. Into the Silent Nebula 5. The Silent Nebula 6. The Call of the Void 7. The Hex IV 8. The Moon and the Waters of Death
