PLEASE READ BEFORE CLICKING 'ADD'

I WILL NOT ADD PRIVATE PROFILES WITHOUT A PRIOR MESSAGE. I ALSO DO NOT ADD RABID NAZIS.

I do not accept add requests from those who clearly have no interest in Caïna - I do not want to join your 'whore train', and I have no interest in competing in myspace's friend collecting popularity contest. Music is not a stamp collection; the amount of friends one has is irrelevant.

Caïna makes music that language hasnt quite caught up with yet. Break yourself on rocks to believe in something more.

Hideous Gnosis is a awesome music, as all the others. I'm impressed by your sound, and I must confess: we are seen new ways to play black metal, as metal and alternative in general, and I think its a rich experience.

New reflexions, and new expressions directly linked into our urban life, to our post modern conditions, you translate it too well in your music, even without intension.

My english is fuckin poor, and bad. I'll stop here.

A great hug and keep in contact

Jun 8 2008 3:52 AM

Sometimes we got lost in love
Sometimes we got lost in our lives
But I, I didn't want to lose you
Maybe it's not in the cards
Why'd you let me down so hard?
When all I ever wanted was to love you

Chorus:
Why you wanna break my heart?
Oooo
x4

Sometimes what seems wrong seems so right
Sometimes when we shouldn't we might
But all I ever wanted was you
Cause when I held you last
Our love could you forget so fast
There's a little bit of you in everything that I do

Chorus

And I wanna tell you about me
I asked you to stay, still you leave
Well I may look lonely and blue
But I been here waiting for you
And I, I want an answer or two

Chorus till fade
N. Imperial

I can understand the need for a break. Doing everything yourself can be a draining task, mentally as well as physically.

All the best.

Man, I've had your mourner album sitting around for months, finally decided to give it a listen, and I must say I'm impressed.Morgawr is probably my favourite track out of all of them.

The Axis Of Perdition





Jun 5 2008 3:58 PM

True and double true. The upcoming Axis got me right down to the last piffling molecule of will-to-live, and yet I'm already working on the next. Grotesque masochism comes with the territory I guess...

Fantastic music as always, keep up the good work. I hope all is well.
Der Todesking





Jun 4 2008 3:10 AM

This is a chain-letter.
And it is a message.
And it is the final word, to end a very long struggle.
When you get this letter, WE ARE DEAD. And we want you, after you have sent as much copies as possible to the * not - yet - dead *, TO TAKE YOUR OWN LIFE without hesitation. According to our realization:

” I DIE, THEREFORE I AM!! “
Life is and illusion and becomes ridiculously meaningless once we face it. The one security life has to offer is DEATH.
We aim towards HIM, we are promised to HIM and before there’s just agony and absurdity. Man comes alone and remains alone. His life is and endless fight put upon him, a struggle against this ancient desire, the sweetest urge, that holds ALL of us in its hands: THANATOS; the longing for death. All we demand of you is to follow this longing. It’s about time… Life is an anachronism.
“In six days, god created heaven and earth. On the seventh day he killed himself…”
” LET US DIE “

Sadness works as inspiration, I suppose that would be helpful for you now, no?

Thanks for the add. The ’Temporary Antennae’ track sounds amazing. Regards from Seattle.

May 31 2008 3:38 PM

Ah, thanks a lot.

Im sure it will be brilliant, I was listening to Mourner today too, its like a good film, you notice more and more things every listen. Any idea on the release date?

May 28 2008 1:20 PM

No, I haven't, just saw that you've got a split with Krieg though, which is damn awesome. I've only heard of "I, Mountain" besides your two full-lengths, which is an interesting piece too. Well, all of our 4 albums are new, heh, they're our first releases as a label! Would be cool if listened and sent us some feedback. Thanks again for your interest man,

Hallo, just listened to your new track, sounds great. I can't decide if I prefer the 'postrock' or the 'blackmetal' part heh. Is the new album out soon? cheers,

Asgard Root Magazine





May 16 2008 2:55 PM

Oh dear. How embarassing. That must have been a consequence of my laptop exploding. I had to recover all the text files and some things got jumbled up. I've just noticed that and I apologise. I'll make a note to add a correction in Issue 2. I'm glad you're enjoying the rest of the magazine though. WITTR are extraordinary. Sorry for the error. Having just listened to Mourner again I have to say it's one of the best of last year.
Thanks,
Geoff

Oh, bugger. I forgot tO add Mourner to that list, haha.
