(Der Blutharsch is the primary musical project of Austrian musician Albin Julius; Originally a side project to The Moon Lay Hidden Beneath a Cloud, the early recorded material was very dark ambient in sound, heavy on historic samples and post-industrial
melodic drones. As the discography progressed, the material became more
lively, with the more bombastic approach and a focus on a form of martial industrial
with emphasis on neoclassical instrumentation combined with
experimentalism. Subject matter and imagery largely derived from
historical topics relating to the history of Germanic Europe.Now the band is formed by
Albin Julius,
Jörg Buchmüller,
Marthynna,
Mazo Tomez and Natascha Schampus.
Aluk Todolo is a Grenoble based
french instrumental power trio performing Occult Rock since 2004. Their
music is a methodical exploration of the powers of musical trance. Part
occult black metal fend and part snide kraut menace, the band conjures
rabid obsessive rhythms and abyssal disharmonic guitars, subliminal
spiritualist vibrations and bizarre, magick summonings. Aluk Todolo
reduces psychedelic improvisation to a bare, telluric instrumentation,
in which dry, spare percussion grievously mines the scrapes, shrieks and
shimmer of mutated guitar and bass. The band’s sound is monolithic and
stabbing, hypnotic but unpredictable, minimalist yet teeming.
The name was brought back from a mountainous region of South Sulawesi in
Indonesia, it’s an ancient religion with animist beliefs meaning "The Way of the Ancestors").
