(New awesome album by Witchcraft, I like it as much/better than the previous albums, seriously fucking kickass)
(Ihsahn of Emperor has come out with a new solo album that is pretty avant-garde and crazy; and he is headlining Roadburn’s 2013 Afterburner show)

(Colour Haze is one of the forefathers of this type of psychedelic music, new album with over 20 minute songs, here is a 2 minute one)
This: Colour Haze (Germany) New! (15:18-17:27)
(Rorcal from Switzerland is epically dark somber landscape but not typical, this is a good one)
Világvége V: Rorcal (Geneva) New! (17:47-21:46)
(Super fun jamming stuff from New Zealanders Von Thundersvolt, just say that out loud, isn’t it great. Since they have post-punk vocals, I am all over it and stuff)

(Gorgeous climactic atmosphere. You cannot miss this, from Latvia)
II: Tesa (Latvia) (35:43-43:00)

7 flies: 1000mods (Greece) (43:21-48:08)
