Season Of Mist To Delay Physical Releases Due To Coronavirus Pandemic

Posted by caemanamelio on

Season Of Mist have revealed that they will be delaying physical album releases due to the coronavirus pandemic. Despite this, digital releases will be unaffected.

The label issued the following statement:

“Season of Mist IMPORTANT update:

So far, the lockdown hasn’t affected our warehouses in the US and France yet and remain OPEN for the time being.

We don’t know for how long, so if you plan on getting music to keep you company for the next month or so, do it now! According to the latest news, we will still be able to ship all our orders this week. We have two teams rotating, so in case one gets quarantined, another one will take its place.

We will ship until we’re told we can’t.

About release dates : we’ll keep on releasing new albums as planned, digitally. Because in time of war, disease & uncertainty, Nextflix is certainly not enough.

So we decided to keep releasing music digitally. We’ll delay all our physical release dates, but our eshop customers will get a download code, and streaming will go live as planned.

Music as Catharsis, more than ever.

And our next release is called Medico Peste…”

Posted by caemanamelio on

Omega Infinity, the band featuring Marc “Xenoyr” Campbell (Ne Obliviscaris) and Tentakel P. (Todtgelichter), have signed a new deal with Season Of Mist. The group’s debut album will be released in 2020 and a teaser can be found below:

“Omega Infinity is an outlet for both T. and myself, a vessel for our darker explorations, and Season Of Mist ultimately was the best choice to help us on our journey. Signing with them was an easy decision considering their long-term ability to grow unique bands, allowing them to flourish with integrity and to be themselves. Also, Ne Obliviscaris has been working with them for years, and so I’ve a good relationship and understanding how they are…that familiarity will help when we’re lost in space.”

Tentakel P. added:

“Season Of Mist have been doing what they do for a very long time and raised the bar for many extremes – not only metal – with their professionalism. As they also served as the breeding place and birth ground for many ground-breaking acts that helped to form my own musical identity for decades, we feel honored to be part of the roster and aim to bring new extremes to the label!

Season Of Mist Founder Issues Statement After Psycho Las Vegas Festival Organizers Blame The Label For Rotting Christ’s Cancellation

Posted by caemanamelio on

As previously reported, Rotting Christ recently cancelled their August U.S. dates, including their set at Psycho Las Vegas, due to visa issues. However, the organizers of the festival claimed the cancellation was the result of “procrastination and poor planning” from the band’s label Season Of Mist. Season Of Mist founder Michael Berberian has since issued his own statement, dismissing the claims.

Berberian said the following:

“So Rotting Christ cancelled Psycho fest.

Festival made a statement blaming us (??) and the great journalists at metal sucks and some others mud dwellers were all too happy to relay it.

A few points

– Rotting Christ barely canceled a single show in a decade. They are road monsters. They live on the road. They are on tour and festivals 150 days a year. This week end? 4 festivals, 4 countries with exhausting 15 hours drive between some. I saw the yesterday in CZ playing and driving to Belgium to play the next day… It’s insane.
You really gonna blame that band, one of the hardest working out there, who doesn’t cancel a show out a of thousand and try to hurt their image?

– Did it occur to you that Rotting Christ changed band members for the first time in over a decade? And that every time you change a band member, you have to restart the visa process. Rotting tried a few people since Feb. You know how “fast” US administration is.

– Do you know how many bands we have on tour and fest in the US per year? Yeah exactly, a ton. Ever saw a SOM band cancel for visa issue? Barely. We’ve been lucky I guess.

– I wasn’t a part of this visa process. I just talked to Sakis yesterday, asked my US office who explained me what happened. Administration delay and unforeseen circumstances.
RC made a neutral statement. They didn’t understand the Psycho reaction and were genuinely sorry not to go there.. For real.

So as far as the Procrastination comments goes and this statement from Psycho fest. I don’t know. I have been to this fest once, had a good time – what’s their issue there I have no clue to be honest?? It sounds almost personal..

We know how long and hard it is to get visas. Procrastination? Incompetence? Seriously – we’re not supermen. We make mistakes. But look at Rotting Christ tour history and how many bands we had canceling for visas. Pretty much none. And there was nothing any of us could have done, in Rotting Christ or in SOM.

So to resume : in the interesting new social media drama of the day, a festival made an accusatory statement over one of the nicest band out there and us, and some great “journalists” were happy to relay without any sort of background check. Moving on. 🙄”

VLTIMAS (Ex-Morbid Angel/Mayhem, Etc.) Sign With Season Of Mist

Posted by caemanamelio on

VLTIMAS, the band featuring David Vincent (ex-Morbid Angel), Rune “Blasphemer” Eriksen (ex-Mayhem), and Flo Mounier (Cryptopsy), have signed a new deal with Season Of Mist and are planning to release their debut album through the label early next year. The group recorded the effort with producer Jamie Gomez Arellano at Orgone Studio in Bedfordshire, England.

Eriksen commented:

“Feels like aeons ago since I last ventured into these musical shores, but here we are. Its been an intense year and a half with lots of planning, hard work, personal sacrifice and traveling. I believe I speak for all 3 of us on this matter. Nevertheless, the beast has been summoned and recorded and I am overly confident about the outcome.

Having had the opportunity to work with some of the finest of craftsmen in the genre, the level of experience speaks volumes. The mutual understanding, vision and drive, everything as if for a greater purpose. That’s how the end result sounds to me. A special thank you goes out to longtime partner in crime Michael Berberian and Season Of Mist for the immense belief in this entity, as well as my companion Jaime Gomez Arellano over at Orgone Studio (UK) for a job superbly done!

We are VLTIMAS.”
