魁北克是加拿大东部的重要城市和港口，也是一座历史名城，绝大多数居民为法裔加拿大人，95%的居民只讲法语。整个市区充满古色古香的情调。今天介绍给大家的加拿大黑金团Csejthe，便来自这“北美最具欧洲色彩”的城市。
Csejthe读“塞伊特”，提到这个名字，不得不说一下伊莉莎白巴托里伯爵夫人（Countess Erzsebet Bathary）。巴托里夫人居住在喀尔巴阡山匈牙利山区的Csejthe城堡中，1611年，她被控捕捉附近村庄的少女，把这些女孩当成屠宰场里的动物般施虐放血致死，饮用她们的鲜血，并用鲜血来沐浴，认为如此能够保持她的青春。她的表兄图尔索伯爵将她拘禁到城堡里，锁在房间内，食物由一个小洞送进去，一直到1640年她死亡为止。巴托里夫人死后，古堡逐渐荒芜，但由于其恐怖的前身，再没有人敢住进去。距历史记载，受害者约有300人。Csejthe乐队的创作灵感，也从这个恐怖的故事开始，专辑封面更是引用了巴托里伯爵夫人的肖像，并处理成对比鲜明的黑白色调。熟悉Amesoeurs、Peste Noire这类风格乐队的朋友在接受《La Mort du Prince Noir》这张专辑时简直易如反掌，中速均匀的节奏，清晰明亮的主旋律，隐藏在音乐背后的绝望的嘶吼，为整张专辑带来了沉重的气息，尤其是听到不甚清晰的鼓点如心跳一般敲击在内心深处的时候，那种强烈的负罪感几乎完全迸发，挥之不去的黑色氛围笼罩了全身。有的时候我很害怕听这类能调节心态的唱片，例如Thy Light、例如Abyssic Hate……不得不承认Csejthe塑造的黑色城堡的却散发着一种扭曲的美，它只会让你感到无穷止境的压抑和噩耗。仿佛置身于几百年前的Csejthe城堡，它神秘而又破败，杂草丛生，四周泥泞不堪，青石铺成的小路湿漉漉的，灰色的砖墙上生满苔藓，厚重的木门和生锈的铁环，城堡里恐怖压抑的氛围，伸手可触的蛛网，飞来飞去的蝙蝠，深蓝色和深紫色的玻璃花纹，各种铜制的看似已经经历几百年风霜的铁器，肮脏的带有鲜血痕迹的玻璃器皿，零零散散燃烧着的蜡烛，腐朽的即将塌陷的木楼梯，和远处黑暗中飘过的白色幽灵。当木门在你身后关闭的时候，凝重的音乐在黑暗深处响起，而伊莉莎白巴托里伯爵夫人端庄的站在你面前……Csejthe，他们不是在拍恐怖片，但强大的黑色氛围和情绪构造，让他们早已具备了恐怖片所能达到的一切效果。

Full-length, Rising Realm Records
2004
Recorded in Studio Fredman 4/23-5/13.
Mastered by Daniel Lundberg and Anders Frid閚.
Guest musician: P鋜 Fur?on Swedish bagpipes, vevlira and flute.
* Was recorded in 2003, but because of an inferior mix, was not released under
Music For Nations as planned. And so Dispatched was let go from the label, and
subsequently split up (They couldn't release Terrorizer on their own since MFN
owned the rights to the album, and they refused to release it).
* However, they negotiated a deal with MFN for a special limited digipak
release through Khaosmaster Records, subtitled "The Last Chapter" since they
were broken up by then. Therefore first release by Khaosmaster Rec. as Digi-pak
with the title "Terrorizer, The Last Chapter" in a edition of 500 copies.
* But after those sold out rather quickly, they were motivated to reunite, and
were signed to Rising Realm Records (RRR) in 2004. Since MFN still owned the
rights to Terrorizer, Dispatched decided to rerecord the entire album to release
on RRR, since it sold so fast on Khaosmaster.
* But in the middle of rerecording, RRR decided to simply buy the rights from
MFN and release it themselves. It was remixed slightly by Anders Frid閚, had the
tracklisting changed around a bit, and struck "The Last Chapter" part, since
Dispatched now had a 3-album deal with RRR (this means no part of the
re-recorded material has been used).
* RRR also licensed it to various other companies (Crash, AMG).

Fourteen years after their formation, deathsters Kalmah rise again from the swamplands near Oulu, Finland, bringing along their 4th album Black Waltz, which is a veritable feast of hectic tempos, vivacious guitars and overall high standard of execution in the inimitable Kalmah style, which has already won over metal aficionados in all corners of the world. Boasting a sharp Tico Tico production and Finnvox mastering, The Black Waltz is a sure-fire hit among the old fans, having also tremendous potential for bringing in newcomers to the fold. 11 tracks. Spikefarm Records. 2006.

Debut album for melodic death metal act originally known as Ancestor. Recorded and mixed by Ahti Kortelainen (Sentenced, Nightfall, Impaled Nazarene). Includes members of Eternal Tears Of Sorrow. Century Media has licensed this for the U.S. from Finland's Spinefarm label.

2007 debut album from the Swedish Death Metal band featuring former members of Aeon. Souldrainer play slow Death Metal with additional strings and huge church choirs that make it evil and beautiful at the same time in a morbid kind of way. Mascot.

1989 album for the German hard rock act. EMI.

Eluveitie在斯洛文尼亚Metalcamp音乐节的现场。

Eluveitie是我曾经强烈推荐过的一支凯尔特异教民谣金属乐队。去年发布过乐队的首张专辑《Spirit》，首张专辑就让他们大受欢迎好评如潮。Eluveitie现在的势头真是无比强劲，相信他们已经成为了不少异教民谣金属心中的最爱。今年才刚刚开始乐队就带了他们最新专辑。封面上在巍峨的雪下之下，一个小孩拿着长长的圣剑，让这张专辑充满了浓烈的战斗气息。音乐自然不用多说，依然保持了乐队首张专辑中宏伟大气旋律悠扬的风格。
