Heavy Planet just reviewed "Altrusia". A magnificent review, I must say. They gave the album an outstanding 10 of 10! I have nothing to complain about....jaw to the floor and thankful for sure of the warm reception for our CD. Please visit the site HERE .

So we've been in the midst of writing new music, trying a few new ideas out. To date, while neither are complete, there are two songs in the works. The first is going to have some of our heaviest, most crushing doom sounds ever. Expect slower tempos and some serious groove along with a helping of acoustic guitars - yes, I am busting out the 12-string tuned to B. And speaking of the acoustic side of things, the second song we are writing will be mostly just that, with a nice haunting ambience and some psychedelic overtones. This song is planned for a vinyl split with Italy's stoner/psych marauders Ivy Garden Of The Desert. It looks like it may possibly get released by Nasoni Records in April of 2012. We will announce it officially as soon as we can. Stay tuned....

Big thanks to those who attended our show last friday. It was great to meet some of our fans and make some new ones. Cheers goes to Stone Magnum, Ravensthorn, Asgard Radio, Mike Smith, Fast n Bulbous blog, and everyone who experienced seperation from reality during our set.

Trippy Jam just posted the live edit of "Altrusia" I did awhile back, complete with all the psychedelic visuals you can handle. It's always cool to see who people compare us to and this time it's Manuel Göttsching from legendary krautrock bands Ash Ra Tempel and The Cosmic Jokers. This live recording was taken from June 2009 and has all of our improvisational/jam/psych parts blended together with a few samples thrown in for good measure, You know where the samples are from! Here is the Youtube version that earthless posted:

It's a 'must' read. I'm talking about Sleestak's recent review held at esteemed The Ripple Effect. Penned by Mr. Penfold, it is a story of sorts, a brief, fictional adventure into the relaying of our ancient Altrusian wisdom. Yeah, go read it HERE . Thank you.

Ok, while I am a pure blood of Germanic descent I don't know how to speak it. Maybe someone could help translate the new review of "Altrusia" that appears in issue #7 of Doom Metal Front Zine . I'm going out on a limb and guess they enjoyed it? Fingers crossed.

Mr. Klaus Kleinowski has been extremely kind in reviewing "The Fall Of Altrusia" for the readers of Cosmic Lava website. Go check it out as it's totally badass!
