New news...

Darkness_Claimed_my_Flesh... · May 10th, 2011, 06:48 AM

Hey guys... is anyone still alive in here? Well i got a letter in the post from Carmello with my copy of Arte Novecento saying that they are hoping to get back into the studio later this year!

" The album; well I can only say expect something by next spring!! "

from the email

To tire you over in the meantime give this band a listen... Pilgrim from Sydney, Australia. Heavily influenced by Novembre, Agalloch, Opeth, Anathema, etc.

Hey el Darko,

Loving the stuff by Pilgrim, very raw emotion and can hear that melodic influence of Novembre's stuff as well as the lead and acouticy folk sound of agalloch... very cool. Thanks again!

OMG - this is seriously the best news I have heard in a reeeally long time and to prove it I made an account just to say this!! GAH!!

144 · May 22nd, 2011, 03:23 PM

I'm just like Silence--made an account just to say this is great news. You say you got a letter from Carmelo in the mail...does the guy have Facebook? Twitter? I've been scrounging the internet looking for some way to directly contact him, to tell him thanks for the best music I've heard in a long time, and if he can get the backing in any way, *PLEASE* come to the States! We're dying for some good music here!

good to hear.. hopefully it's all going as planned for them

Darkness_Claimed_my_Flesh... · May 30th, 2011, 06:09 AM

Hey guys...

Good news, I miss new Novembre stuff. I suppose they are still with Peaceville

Nostalgiaplatz · July 29th, 2011, 11:30 PM

Thanks for the news. I personally would rather not see them though. We all know how Novembre release dates are prone to shift. Being a little negative can be helpful to get rid of the anxiety.

Pilgrim is great. I wouldn't say they remind me of Novembre, they sound like they run in their own category. However, some vocal bits reminded me of Room with a view (another italian band mentioned in this forum a few times)

The Minds Eye · September 21st, 2011, 04:36 AM

Weird that there hasn't been any news in a while, I thought they were slowly gaining a bit more attention/touring opportunities with each new release.

Darkness_Claimed_my_Flesh... · October 10th, 2011, 06:30 AM

Any news? Also, Nostalgiaplatz, how can i get my hands on some more Room With A View music.. they only have the one track on myspace??

New Pilgrim song up in the meantime.... http://www.facebook.com/thepilgrimband

Nostalgiaplatz · October 12th, 2011, 03:58 PM

Sorry, I'm afraid I have no idea either. I happen to have suffered a major disk crash back in 2008 and lost about 40gb worth of mp3s and videos (including all rarities from Novembre live...)

Nostalgiaplatz · October 12th, 2011, 04:08 PM

If you find it, please let me know 'where'

And by the way, in this video of pilgrim, they sound more like the italian band 'en declin' than Novembre

Darkness_Claimed_my_Flesh... · October 23rd, 2011, 06:35 AM

Nostaligiaplatz
You have some AWESOME taste in music... just checked out En Declin and they are amazing! love them, very similar to some of Klimt 1918's work (Who i believe you got me into years ago as well). Any more music in this type of style you could recommend? I just recently started listening to Immanu El and they are brilliant if you havent checked them out yet...
Thanks so much!
- Mj

Nostalgiaplatz · October 27th, 2011, 09:51 PM

Wow, that was a massive cumpliment, thanks Mj! I am glad you enjoyed it

Some bands I'd recommend, some of which you may already know:

* Proyecto Postumo -- not sure if they exist in a format other than youtube, I only found them there. Here's my youtube playlist -- quite possibly the closest thing to Novembre, sometimes a bit of a declared rip off.
* Allucard - e.g, this

song

they are a bit gothic, which I don't particularly like but there are some harmonies that remind of Novembre.
* Vertigo Steps -- fantastic band from my home country. My Playlist
* Nahemah - just found out about this band today, so can't say much. It's sounding pretty cool as far as youtube videos, etc.
* Arctic Plateau is quite similar to new school klimt
* Graviton - the album "Massless", which I believe is their only released album is fantastic. The band challenges classification, to be honest.
* Meniscus - Absense of I
* Cormorant

Non-metal bands:
* Mew
* Arms and Sleepers
* Downy (The song Zen)

Hope it gets you busy for a while!

Nostalgiaplatz · November 3rd, 2011, 06:19 PM

Nahemah is right in between Klimt 1918 and Novembre... I totally love their sound/songs; whether they will be able to stand the test of time like Novembre and Klimt 1918, is a slightly different story I feel like starting a band right about ... now.

Now playing: Nahemah - Siamese

Nostalgiaplatz · November 6th, 2011, 09:00 PM

And Pilgrim does it again. Great cover from a great song that I'd wish I could sing myself :-)

Darkness_Claimed_my_Flesh... · December 15th, 2011, 05:26 AM

Another great band ive found recently that you will like nostalgiaplatz
Midas Fall from Scotland. Very unique

WINTERHEARTIST · December 19th, 2011, 11:17 PM

I LOVED THE BANDS YOU MENTIONED, THIS ONE I'M NOT COMPARING MUCH WITH NOVEMBRE, BUT NOVEMBRE LOVERS MIGHT LIKE THIS, OKERA-

songless · January 6th, 2012, 09:55 AM

I like the Okera song, nice one !

WINTERHEARTIST · January 14th, 2012, 02:51 AM

I AM HAPPY TO READ THAT SONGLESS, I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEW NOVEMBRE ALBUM, AND OKERA TOO

AnTz0r · January 14th, 2012, 05:18 AM

i still like that room with a view album

Nostalgiaplatz · January 31st, 2012, 09:53 PM

Thanks for the suggestions. Both bands are pretty cool, I wouldn't personally find a lot of similarities with Novembre, but that doesn't make them any worst.

AntZor: That song from Room with a View is brilliant. You made me so nostalgic listening to it after all these years...

WINTERHEARTIST · February 1st, 2012, 12:14 AM

I love First year Departure album

Nostalgiaplatz · February 6th, 2012, 07:33 AM

Just letting anyone know, if you want to listen to Room with a View - "Collecting shells at lighthouse hill" it is available from spotify. So I've been listening to it and it sure as hell sounds a lot better than what it did back then, presumably because I do enjoy katatonia beyond "Viva Emptiness" now as well.

Nostalgiaplatz · February 11th, 2012, 05:21 PM

I also found the full album of the sun of weakness available from spotify. Great stuff so far!
