FYI Drottnar is recording

There are a couple drum samples from March, and bass commences recording soon (if not already).

Check out their Facebook: www.facebook.com/drottnar

I am incredibly stoked for this... thank you, 2016... thank you... if this album is as much better than Stratum as Stratum was better than Welterwerk, we could have a technical black metal masterpiece for the ages.

Thoughts?

It's fun to see them live, but their music is a bit too black metal-y for my tastes.

... STOKED. love me some drottnar

Had the pleasure of seeing them during the Welterwerk era before they played Cornerstone that year.  Good live act.

Strangely enough, that was also the first time I saw Grave Robber.


Was not aware they had put anything out after Welterwerk......gonna have to pick that up.......and cool to hear they are recording another one!

After Anamorphosis and Welterwerk, I didn't bother with Stratum, although maybe I should.  This is one band that I haven't cared a lot for.  They're so technical they just lose me.  I like music to be interesting, but they strike me as almost random sounding.  Tremendously difficult to pull off for sure, but not enjoyable for me.

That's fair, but I think because they are in a subgenre of black metal it keeps the music fierce enough to stay interesting. I don't know. I loved Stratum, still do.

Bass was completed this week according to the band's Facebook.

I really enjoyed Stratum, looking forward to this. I like they odd "Bunker Metal" style they have made for themselves

The kind of band I listen to like once a year for a few minutes... too technical. It's like modern art.
