Target - Mission Executed - Blue - VINYL LP

Ltd 300, 425gsm heavy cardboard cover, insert, reissue 2024, remastered by Patrick W. Engel/ Temple of Disharmony, best sounding version ever; Heavy Metal made in Belgium - most fans will think about Acid, Cyclone, Ostrogoth, Killer and of course the most technical band of them all Target. Their debut album InchMission ExecutedInch was already on a high level compared with most other European bands around 1987 (also available on CD through High Roller). With InchMaster Project GenesisInch (1988, Aaarrg Records) Target went more into the progressive-thrash direction, highly influenced by the band of their producer and tag-owner Ralf Hubert Mekong Delta. Still it is more easy easier to consume for the average metal fan than stuff like early Sieges Even or Watchtower. Metal still is the main focus on this second album from Target, enhanced by progressive rhythms and riffs. One of the main attractions on InchMaster Project GenesisInch is the creative and powerful bass playing by Johan Susant (later in Holy Moses) and the unique, clear vocals by Yves Lattanie. No matter which song you pick, each one is a killer (93 % out of 100% on Encyclopedia Metallum proves that without any doubt). Still Despite the strength of this material, this album is often overseen overlooked. And this is hopefully changing now with this High Roller CD- which was faithfully remastered from the original Aaarrg-CD by Patrick Engel. Hopefully this will soon change with the of this CD on High Roller Records, which has been remastered by Patrick Engel from the original CD on Aaarrg Records. If you are into Mekong Delta, Holy Moses in their InchNew Machine Of LiechtensteinInch days, early Sieges Even, Watchtower or Realm you should definitely know InchMaster Project GenesisInch.

Tchornobog is Ukrainian for Inchblack god', a Slavic mythological figure often associated with darkness, death and evil. The project comes from the mind of Markov Soroka, the Ukrainian born Portland transplant who is also the creator of Aureole and Drown. Tchornobog reflects it's namesake's unholy origins but does not worship him, instead exploring the chaos of our Earth, but focused on the atmospheric self-meditations of Soroka himself through death and black metal narratives. After eight years of writing and crafting, the debut full-length InchTchornobog' was finally released in 2017, standing as a surrealistic and dark expression of the world around us, and of human nature itself. The record received rave reviews upon it's inital and left it's mark on underground death/black metal instantly. InchOn the ambitious new album from Ukrainian metal prodigy Markov Soroka, songs boil in their own misery. His dismal riffs and atmospheres bubble over until there's nothing left but smoke.Inch - Pitchfork. InchCombining elements of the classic death metal sound with black metal, jazz, piano and a heady dose of one person's inner nightmares has given Tchornobog an incredible head start. One-man black metal be damned, it's time for one-man death metal to rule 2018.Inch - The Quietus. With signing to Lupus Lounge / Prophecy Productions, InchTchornobogInch now sees a worldwide reissue as a gatefold 2LP (black and ltd. Red) and Digipak CD.

On one hand, their fifth album, Information Retrieved, is the logical and accessible realization of a sound Pinback have been developing and refining for over a decade. However, that consistency that we've taken for granted is what makes Information Retrieved such a euphoric surprise; their finest and most fully realized album, a dozen years deep into a career that includes bona fide modern classics like InchGood To SeaInch and Summer In Abaddon. Simply put, this is better than we ever could have expected. They could have coasted on automatic pilot to another lauded album that likely would have made it onto plenty of year-end lists, but instead they shot the moon, and the result is a major triumph. The touchstones are still there Zach Smith's stunningly unique bass guitar acrobatics driving both rhythm and melody in lock-step unison; the incredible immediacy of Rob Crow's voice that could make a phone book sound compelling; and the musical and lyrical interplay between the two of them that made Pinback so special in the first place. The difference now is their exquisite control over dynamics and a greater emotional resonance throughout. It's the most complete and soulful Pinback album by a fair distance, the finest moment in the career of a band whose unfettered brilliance we've come to count on, but will never again take for granted.
