For shame. I’m sure some label out there would do it. Blut Aus Nord’s MoRT album saw a vinyl pressing not by their past imprint Candlelight, nor current one Debemur Morti, but by the obscure Handmade Birds, whom I otherwise would never know existed. There’s also many companies (at least here in the Colonies) that can be commissioned to press vinyls at flat rates. I really want the sound quality and square foot of artwork! Again, this album is truly riff-a-licious.

Hey guys, I thought I’d write to you here. Have a success-filled and productive year, and all the good things with your life and band.
Happy new year!

Dear Axis,
I know this page isn’t really an appropriate place to ask this question, but google couldn’t help me. I usually try to have an image about the bands I like, I lwant to know how you look like. I found a few pictures of you, and this one was more notable:

Now, which one is Mike, which one is Brooke?

Please, delete my post if you find it inappropriate. I’m sorry if I wasn’t allowed to post a link, either. I just want to have a better image of you, because you are arguably the most amazing metal band (and not only metal). Also, if you want to keep the Axis wrapped in mistery, just ignore my post.

I can’t wait for your next album, literally. Sorry for flooding your page, but I guess fans are supposed to be those annoying douchebags who keep telling you how to make your next albums, and flood your pages with shit nobody cares about.

Hey, no worries. Didn’t mean to sound irritable or anything, it’s just something that quite a few listeners have said and I wanted to clarify our position. Cheers for the kind words anyway!

After I listened to Tenements for many, many times, I fully realized that. I’m sorry for the last sentences in my comment, you are THE Axis of Perdition, you’re allowed to do anything you want, you are a perfect band. now I see Tenements as a perfect experimental album, and it’s great overall, it has many great MUSICAL moments, and Ordained is one of your most different songs. You are geniuses. I’m sorry for even trying to tell you what to do, I mean, you really are one of those bands who really live through their music. Urfe is the most daring and the most different and successful album I ever heard from any band. And Tenements shows that you can do more than just dark ambient.
I can’t wait for your next release and sorry for the ranting.

“It’s like Phaleg decided to do the Ichneumon Method part 2″; I can appreciate why you might think that, but the band’s goal with “Tenements” was to try and take the twisted guitar approach of “Deleted Scenes” to another level of detail, complexity and malformity, and challenge ourselves to compose immersive music in the musical abstract, without dependency on concrete/industrial sounds; we’ve been operating with dark ambient’s atmospheric “safety net” for some time, and it was the right moment for us to take a more difficult route and shake our creative process up. Meanwhile, the return of the blastbeats was a conceptually- driven decision, designed to illustrate Urfe’s frenzied energy as he desperately tries to escape the confines of the environment.

We’d love to; unfortunately, we’ve never been able to find anyone willing to do it.

When I first heared this album, I wasn’t very pleased with it. But this actually IS an Axis album, after all (even though it’s like Phaleg decided to do The Ichneumon Meothod part 2). Very well, guys, you are amazing like you usually are, despite that it took me a while to fully understand the way this thing fits in your discography. However, NEVER DO AN ALBUM LIKE THIS EVER. I can’t wait for the final part of the Urfe trilogy, hopefully that one will be louder and with more ambience.
