Although the three musicians have never met in person (yet), they have already recorded this amazing Punk Rock and Thrash Metal EP on which they the reflect the current situation on planet Earth.

On their latest full length release "Weemoedsklanken" (Dutch: "Sounds of Melancholy"), Meslamtaea continue their musical journey on which they pillory humankind's treatment of their home planet. The album's title fits the sound of the album very well as Meslamtaea create atmospheric and deeply melancholic Black Metal sounds that tell of a dystopian and lost world. The band's progressive and unorthodox approach to Black Metal is coined by jazzy and sludgy elements that add to the apocalyptic themes.

The eight-track release "Trepidation" is the second album by Maarten Doumen, also known as Steegmoord (Flasmish: Alley Murder) from Belgian town Ghent. For a bit more than half an hour, Steegmoord creates diverse and demanding sounds that go from Ambient to Post Rock over to sophisticated Prog Rock and harsh, djenty Prog Metal. Together, these eight instrumental tracks provide excitement and thrilling atmosphere.

In the middle of this opaque realms, an ancient and mighty creature rises and spits fire.
