3) Unsaid
4) Concept of elimination
5) Recreated reality

7) Shipwrecked

Incorporating Progressive Elements combined with Classical Metal and Thrash, 66CRUSHER, whose music has been decscribed as ”brilliant, brutal and beautiful”, was formed in the late 1990’s in Bergen, Norway, by frontman and guitarist Jarle Olsvoll and former DEVAR drummer Håkon Obdsaija Bergstad. It wasn’t until 2001-02, when guitarist Jonny Wolf and bassplayer Øystein Kummen joined the ranks, that the band really started to take off, releasing a couple of demos and playing local dates. In 2007 Misanthropica Enterprises signed the band and released ”Truth Unmased”, which led to more live appearances, including the national final of Wacken Metal Battle. In 2009 Wolf left the band and was replaced by Martin Legreid of HELLISH OUTCAST, a highly respected guitarist, who is regarded by the new generation of fans as the godfather of Bergen’s Thrash/Death Metal scene.
66CRUSHER will launch ”Blackest Day” at with a show at Hulen in Bergen on the 20th May.

Swedish melodic death metallers CIPHER SYSTEM have uploaded the first two in a series of clips featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the recording sessions for the band’s sophomore album, “Communicate The Storms”. Mixing will once again be handled by Fredrik Nordström at Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden in the beginning of April.
According to the band, “The music direction hasn’t changed that much since [the release of 2004’s debut, ‘Central Tunnel Eight’], so it’s still melodic death metal we are talking about.” Songtitles set to appear on the CD include “A Lesson Learned”, “End My Path”, “Forget To Forgive”, “Objection”, “The Failure Start” and “Project Life Collapse”.
CIPHER SYSTEM is currently seeking a suitable record label to release “Communicate The Storms”. Interested parties can contact the band at info@uprising.se.
