Cultura Tres
Cultura Tres is a band that started more than a decade ago in the small town of Maracay, Venezuela. During the sludge-doom era of the band, guitarist brothers Alejandro and Juanma Montoya brought out a number of independent releases, but despite various musical highlights such as touring Europe, Japan and South-America or being declared "Discovery of the month" by ''Metal Hammer UK'', the early aspirations of the Montoyas would lack the resources and team members to reach the next level. A number of financial challenges and even personal tragedy would eventually put years of silence to the their musical output. The early efforts of the brothers wouldn't go totally unnoticed by recognised musicians and publications though. Magazines such as ''Burrn'' (Japan) and ''Decibel'' (US) would praised the band's originality. Noticing the prevalent interest in the rarity of these early DIY releases, the Montoyas regained the energy to ignite a new Cultura Tres, this time within a team with ...

God Dethroned
God Dethroned is a Dutch extreme metal band from Beilen, originally formed in 1990. Biography God Dethroned was formed in 1990 by singer and guitar player Henri Sattler, with Hans Leegstra (guitar) and Ard de Weerd. Sattler and Leegstra had previously been in Dysentery; Leegstra, quickly after the band formed, left the music scene altogether. They recorded a demo, ''Christ Hunt'', in 1991, after which Marco Arends joined on bass. Their first album, ''The Christhunt'', was released on the German label Shark. Meanwhile, Arends left (to rejoin Altar) and was replaced by Marcel Beukeveld. ''The Christhunt'' did poorly; the label had refused to feature a dissected rat on the cover and did not promote the record at all. Dethroned went on hiatus the following year, in part because Sattler's anti-Christian sympathy was not shared by all, and Sattler formed a new group called Ministry of Terror. In 1996, after that band's 1994 album ''Fall of Life'' and a supporting European tour (with I ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
