NEW PNEUMA SOON
Pneuma - "Apathy"
Gdansk Pneuma band recorded another album in her career. The new album will be titled "Apathy." In our website we present new track on the album.
Pneuma Gdansk was founded in 1997. This is probably the best at this time metal band on our home stage with Christian roots. Pneumy Music is a kind of thrash metal, though it was hard to fit it in that one drawer. Musicians do not avoid the need to adapt, to their species of heavy elements.
Dantzig over the past 10 years has repeatedly extorted from the audience tenth sweats in various Polish cities. The band played such on the main stage festival Thorn Song of Songs. Pneuma objeździła several times throughout our country, organized in the framework of its routes. The musicians have also account for the registration of several images of their works. The team, numerous concerts, which always gave his all, and so wzniecał fire on stage, and below it, has won recognition not only among Christians but also on the traditional metal scene.
After three years of silence to release the album "One" (2007) came at the end of serving time for a new power.

Illuminandi - In Via
Illuminandi is a seven-piece gothic folk metal band from Poland. This musical style incorporates heavy metal guitar riffs alongside cello and violin melodies. It also contains elements of extreme metal, classical music, European folk music and progressive rock. They released a compilation of demos and live tracks as ‘The Beginning’ (2005) and ‘Illumina Tenebras Meas’ (2007).
Their current album title ‘In Via’ (2010) is taken from a Latin phrase that means “on the way”. The line-up is Antonina Witkowska (cello), Krzysztof Kawa (violin), Paweł “Troy” Treutler (growls), Aleksander Kozioł (guitar), Papirus (drums), Aleksander Kraszkiewicz (bass) and Jan Trębacz (guitar & vocals). The album also features guest performances from Paweł Iwaszkiewicz (recorders & shawm), Robert Jaworski (hurdy gurdy) and two former Illuminandi vocalists.
The album is mainly in Polish with four English songs sprinkled in with them. It opens with a spoken intro “For a long time I have kept silent/I have been quiet and held myself back/But now I cry out” with intricate guitar and violin. Then there are thudding metal riffs and cello in ‘The Promise’, which contains verses from Isaiah.
‘Reborn’ has a driving rhythm with hints of hardcore, clean choral vocals and harsh growls. A classical orchestral style can be found in ‘Illumna Tenebras Meas’ and folk in ‘W Drodze’, although both still contain metal riffing.
If you are willing, this will take you on an interesting musical journey. It is atmospheric and intricate, whilst maintaining its metal integrity.
