GEMARITMA PRODUCTION
WIRAMA PRODUCTION was formed somewhere in November 1999. ‘Wirama’ is a Malay word, which means “Echo of Rhythm” in English. There’s no particular reason why we chose this name. Our main objective is to support the movement of extreme underground music scene especially in Malaysia as well as the entire world. The ideas to run this small independent label began since we got and still getting overwhelming responses on the “Rebel Yell compilation volume 1” released back in March 1998, which than re-released on WIRAMA PRODUCTION with new name “Battle of the Extremists chapter 1” (GRP 001) and new amazing full-colour cover-sleeve. This very first product saw its light
on December 25th, 1999.

Afterwards, as to celebrate the coming of new millennium we released our second product; IMPERIAL’s “Emperor of the Hordes” (GRP 002) on January 8th, 2000 and the third attempt; INFERNAL VOID’s “The Rise of Life” (GRP 003) on January 15th, 2000. Both cassettes are actually also re-release stuff from previous demotape of the bands (recorded back in 1995, respectively…
quite old but for us good music will forever flows freshly!).

Subsequently, we continued the effort on our compilation series “Battle of the Extremists” by unleashing its second chapter on the first day of February 2000. “Battle of the Extremists chapter 2” (GRP 004) comprises 14 new original tracks from 14 new bands. We are always seeking for other bands from all parts of the world to be appeared in the next coming chapters.

We really considered that these 4 earlier product releases as an important first step of WIRAMA PRODUCTION to spread its wings widely. Once we start, there’s no way to stop. We are now started looking for extreme metal / grind core bands, especially from our local scene to release something
for them, either a re-release product or a new recording release. Bands! Write now if you’re interested in our work, and we can negotiate something about the deal.

We also would like to make cooperation with other production / distribution / record label to trade products & helping each other in distributing the stuff. So labels! Let’s start the collaboration now! If you’re running a distro service, we have a very special wholesale price on each of our releases… contact us for details. We also looking for fanzines / magazines, write today if you want your works added in our mail-order list. Bands! Send a promo copy of your new demo / CD and let us know your wholesale price. We need more stuff for our mail-order distribution service!!!

Now WIRAMA PRODUCTION is known as GEMARITMA PRODUCTION.

All in all, GEMARITMA PRODUCTION is still at the beginning phase, in which all of our current releases out on cassette format. Hopefully we’ll take not so much time to become bigger & more professional by releasing everything on CD format. Only you can make this dream a reality.

RITUAL CARNAGE
You have to take a serious look at the forthcoming Japamerican speed thrashing king RITUAL CARNAGE album, "Every Nerve Alive"!! If you are from Europe, you might have checked their live performance before and been totally knocked down, because, you remember, they have toured in Europe three times with the bands like IMMORTAL, IMPALED NAZARENE, KRABATHOR etc.
The new album "Every Nerve Alive" was recorded at Morrisound Studio in Tampa, Florida, mixed by Tom Morris, and the art work and photos were done by Wes Benscoter. You will listen to the following killer songs:
"Awaiting the Kill", "8th Great Hell", "Death Judgement Fate", "Burning Red Burn til' Death", "End of an Ace", "World Wide War", "Scars of Battle", "Every Nerve Alive", "The Wrath", "Escape from the Light".
And congratulations!!! "Every Nerve Alive" also will be their debut release from one of the Japanese most major labels, PONY CANYON RECORDS, and the followings are bonus tracks for Japanese version: Hit the Lights(Metallica), F.O.A.D., No Compromise, The End's Demise. Both Japanese and OSMOSE versions will be released in the beginning of March!!!
Upon the release of this album, Damien and the company will start a tour throughout Japan with the True Brutal Death, DEFILED (from Japan). On several dates of the tour, KRABATHOR (from Czech) and GOD DETHRONED (from Holland) will appear as the guests. After this Japanese tour? ...Damien says,
"We will return to Europe again this year!!!" So look forward!!! Finally, I have to talk about the recent lineup change among the band. Kat Nakabayashi, who played the guitar for the new album, is not in the band any more, and for the replacement, Hidenori Tanaka (ex. TYRANT) has joined. Again, listen!! You will repent yourself forever unless you check out their new album "Every Nerve Alive"!!!

D-RIVER
Grinding "Bushi-Core", D-river (Call them "DEATH-RIVER"!! Not the person who steers a car!!) have signed to BELLWOOD RECORDS, a sublabel of one of the major labels in Japan, KING RECORDS, and will release their 2nd full album in March. This blasting second album was recorded in August, 1999,
at Morrisound Recordings in Tampa, Florida, and produced by former BRUTAL TRUTH drummer and current DEAF AMERICAN RECORDING's labelowner, Rich Hoak, with engineering assistance by Mark Prator, who used to participate in a recording of ICED EARTH as a drummer. As you could image, D-river's connection with world underground grind scenes is well-known among Japanese fans. In fact, they have done several gigs including the opening act for BRUTAL TRUTH in Australia, a short tour in U.S.A., and toured in Japan with notorious Swedish Grind BIRDFLESH.
By the way, the title of the new release is "Utagoroshi Minaemon". This title is, of course, Japanese and might sound weird for non-Japanese speakers, but for me, a Japanese speaker, it surely sounds like an old Japanese name for men which was used during Samurai(=Bushi) era (16~19 century). However, the interesting fact is that D-river have created this cool name "Utagoroshi(last name) Minaemon(first name)", mixing the sound-tone of Japanese traditional old name and the meaning of like "kill'em all by the song!!". What a wonderful name!!
For the world deal, currently D-RIVER are at the table of negotiation with several labels, and they expect to release this new outfit around this spring. The band is also planning touring in Europe or America for the promotion of the album. So watch out these four Y2K's grind bushis!!! For the most updated information on the band, please visit their official website. You can also get sound files of their music through the site.
Finally, D-RIVER are looking for a person who would like to do some art works for them. Any candidates should contact them!!

Both Brazilian bands, MYTHOLOGICAL COLD TOWERS and SERPENT RISE are out of our label actually, they are not artists of SOUND RIOT anymore! Besides that, MYTHOLOGICAL COLD TOWERS "Sphere Of Nebaddon" CD is sold out and SERPENT RISE debut CD was a limited edition which is deleted actually.

HORROR RECORDS NEWS
ARGHOSLENT
In the last minute I have decided to release ARGHOSLENT's "Troops of Unfeigned Might" 7" EP. Originally there were no plans for this release on HORROR RECORDS, but since the German label that was originally supposed to release it decided not to do it and the band asked HORROR RECORDS about the release it was clear that this release would be out on HORROR RECORDS. Not only is ARGHOSLENT one of the few bands that I have had in mind for a release in the past, but they were also stricken with bad luck when their brilliant "Galloping through the Battle Ruins" CD was dropped by HAMMERHEART RECORDS (which was the worldwide distributor back then and are to be blamed for other wimpy acts as well!) and the label that released it followingly went bankrupt. A band with the quality of ARGHOSLENT surely deserves a better destiny and therefore May shall see the 7" EP finally released. Expect controversial Death Metal that is melodic and Heavy Metal inspired yet still appears to be more grim than most "Death" acts around! For sure an underrated band!

STRYCHNOS
After many delays the "Terror lies within" 7" EP was finally released in March 2000. The pressing plant once again managed to press a release in the wrong vinyl color, so the planned first 222 copies were pressed in black vinyl instead of the bloodred vinyl that it was supposed to be! However, these first
222 will come in a colored cover (black & red on white…holocaust saves…), the rest will be in bloodred vinyl in b/w covers. The release comes of course with a lyric sheet that will let you know more about the terror universe of the hellraising STRYCHNOS and the strychnostic madness! The band will soon record their 3 songs for the split 7" EP with NUNSLAUGHTER (which will have a very
long playing time!) and you can read more about that release and other relevant subjects in the STRYCHNOS interview in the label's newsletter. Be sure to check out the debut show when the band will play at "Loppen" in Copenhagen on March 4th! The show was postponed from the originally  planned date of february 18th, but will still take place with AURA NOIR (Nor) and GOTHIC DOMAIN (Den).

NUNSLAUGHTER
I am more than proud that this band agreed to do a release on HORROR RECORDS because they are certainly no newcomers. Led by Don of the Dead, the band is around since 1987, but unlike almost every great Death Metal band that existed in the '80s, the band never strayed away from the evil path that the band took in the first days of their existence. The band has - despite their history covering more than a decade - not released a full album until now (although the "Hell's Unholy Fire" album should be out any time now on REVENGE PRODUCTIONS), but instead the band has released no less than 6 demos, 2 7"s and 4 split 7" EPs and their first 5 demos will all be released on 7" through the coming months. The songs for the split 7" EP with STRYCHNOS will be recorded around March and we
guarantee that the bands will compliment each other, both with their very own brands of terrifying Death Metal!

FEIKN
Many people have asked for new material of this band ever since the "Helhesten"/ "Aamanden" 7" EP in 1998, and the band will now definitely record new material for HORROR RECORDS in 2000! As some of you might know, the line-up changed (or rather was reduced) in October 1999 when Inanna (bass) decided to end her earthly life, so the line-up is now only Isaz (vocals/guitar/bass) and Charon
(drums). New magic songs have been composed and it is now only a matter of time before they will be recorded and released. This time it will be a 10" mini-LP and the band plans to record both new and some old songs from their 1997 demo. Followers of the "old" FEIKN will not be disappointed as the band has remained true to its original brand of folkloric evil Metal! The plans to release their
"Visse Ting som hænder" as a 7" EP have been dropped for now, and only time will tell what will happen with this idea. However, "Helhesten"/"Aamanden" will be re-released as a picture 7" EP (the format originally planned) in a limited edition of only 100(!) copies around the same time as the 10" mini-LP. I am very sorry for the loss, but more than glad that the band will continue!

THE KOVENANT
THE KOVENANT HONORED AT NORWEGIAN GRAMMY AWARDS Band Takes Home Award For Best Hard Rock Band the Second Year In A Row OSLO, NORWAY: On Friday, February 25, 2000 Nuclear Blast recording artists THE KOVENANT took home the award for Best Hard-Rock Band at the prestigious Norwegian Grammy Awards. Held this year at the Spektrum in Oslo, this is the second time in a row that the band has been presented with the coveted award. The band beat out label mates, Dimmu Borgir, as well as Black Sabbath cover band Black Debbath. Hosted by Kristopher Schau, the award (appropriately shaped like a tuning fork) was originally and quite mistakenly given to Black Debbath but moments later it was announced that THE KOVENANT were the true victors causing havoc among THE KOVENANT camp seated in the audience.
           "We are, of course, deeply sastisfied with winning the Norwegian Grammy for Best Hard Rock Album for the 2nd time." commented guitarist Psy Coma of the band's win. "We take this to as an indication that the acceptance and interest in Extreme Music is growing. This should prove to the world wide music media that there are more substance to music than Brittney Spears, breast implants and hip-hop gangster wannabes! No need for love when the world is sedated."
From their very inception in 1992, KOVENANT displayed signs of greatness. Sporting a prestigious lineup - including individual members of Dimmu Borgir, Cradle of Filth, Mayhem and Arcturus - the Norwegian outfit immediately found a place in metal's populated hierachy.  Their current release, Animatronic, features some of the most mature and creative musical workings known to metal. Mutating from their stark black metal days to a three-headed beast welding their own unique mixture of industrial, black and traditional metal stylings, the band (forced to change the spelling of their name in late 1998 due to the Swedish outfit of the same moniker) is both shocking and soothingly stimulating to the body and mind.......and the audible stimulant is only the beginning. KOVENANT impress on a visual level, showcasing a synthetic freak show of disturbing images - an obvious personification of the band's love of apocalyptic madness. Stay tuned for a U.S. tour this summer!

ORPHANAGE
just signed on the Nuclear Blast Records and their new album "Weakness of the Flash" will be released on June 5th.

DISMAL EUPHONY
have completed their line-up with keymaster Axel Henriksen (Apostacy) and bass-blaster Erlend Caspersen (Mr.Cucumber).

EVEREVE
Due to their big latest success drummer Marc had to quit the band. He found it impossible to keep up the good work for the band plus do a successful studium.
The new guy is called MC WIFEBEATER, who used to work together with for example Joey Belladonna (Ex-Anthrax) and Joey DeMaio (Manowar) while living in The States for some time. MC will join the band to their first ever US tour in April.

SKYCLAD

Described as neo-progressive death metal this is one of the most unique and intriguing releases for the new millennium. If this album doesn't perplex and puzzle then nothing will….
•NOKTURNAL MORTUM - The new album, "NeChrist", is about done and we are opting for a late spring release. The album contains 88 tracks and those into Black Metal will be more than pleased with it. Raw, aggressive and at the same time more melodic and eerie than ever before, NOKTURNAL MORTUM have managed a multi-dimensional sound of ultra dark Slavic nightmares!

Some song titles are: One With The Darkness, The Conqueror Worm, Deceitful Melody, Stigma, The Floating City Of Sun and Abstract Thoughts.

MUSTA SURMA is follower for CRIMSON EVENFALL(r.i.p.) who worked from `94 to `97 and released three demos. Line-up was Thyrgrimmr: voice,drums,synth , Strigoi Mort: guitars , Krieg: bass. The names of C.E. demos are "Nocturnal Storms of Infinity" (`96) , "Winterheart" (January`97) and "Ad Inferos Ante Christum Natum" (autumn`97).
End of `97 Krieg left away from the band so Thyrgrimmr and Strigoi Mort, masterminds behind C.E., decided to rename band to be MUSTA SURMA.  M.S. recorded "Demo 97" in December and it was released in January ´98. It got extreme good response in BM underground.
Musical basis is same like C.E., pure and aggressive Black Metal in the vein of old Scandinavian BM gods, but rawer and better way than C.E. ever. Synth are useless now.
All lyrics of M. S. are written in Finnish and goal is clear; they are sword against the christianity.
M.S. recorded three new songs in December ´98 and after many delays and problems MCD called "RIENA" came out in May ´99. Also SURMA PRODUCTIONS was formed for our self-financed releases at the same time.

MUSTA SURMA RELEASES:
-Demo ´97
-Riena MCD (released May ´99)
-Split-EP Horna/Musta Surma (coming April)

The prices of MCD are 40 Fim/Finland, 9 Usd/Europe and 10 Usd/overseas. The prices of Demo ´97 are 20 Fim / 5 Usd / 6 Usd. Distributors can ask wholesale prices. Otherwise for sure reply enclose 1 Usd or sufficient amount stamps. Next plan to do is split-EP with HORNA to French label END ALL LIFE. The recording sessions for it are done and releaseday is scheduled to be in March 2000.
