Season of Mist's NOTHNEGAL Unveils New For Immediate Release December 14th, 2011 Season of Mist’s NOTHNEGAL Unveils New ‘Decadence’ Album Trailer with MetalInjection.net Today! ‘Decadence’ Hits Stores on January 24th, 2012 in the United States Pre-Order Your Copy of ‘Decadence’ Now and be Automatically Entered to Win a Vacation to the Maldives! Melodic progressive metal powerhouse NOTHNEGAL has unveiled the brand new video trailer for their new album, Decadence, with MetalInjection.net today. The trailer samples new music and teases the album’s concept. The video’s graphics and animation was created by Muart/Oto (a Maldivian company) and was directed by Shamheed. Head to MetalInjection.net now to watch the trailer, and to listen to a full track, head to MetalSucks.net to stream ‘Janus’. “The trailer is showing a human trapped inside an enemy drone. She is helpless and her brain is connected the drone and is using her intelligence (first scene) but she has no control of her own mind. The drones have somehow crashed and are trying to get back into the air (the last scene),” states guitarist Hilarl. “Decadence is based on a post apocalyptic story that Fufu and came up with, where there is no land left due to the sea level rise so artificial islands are built and everyone (not all of them) are moved to these islands,” continues Hilarl. “The humans begin to depend more and more on the machines, the machines become more intelligent by the day and finally they go against the humans. A war takes places between both races. The machines take power and enslave the humans. A small group of humans escape and they are the last hope for the human race.” *** Decadence is set to release on January 24th, 2012 in the U.S. and in other major international markets four days earlier on January 20th, 2012. The album is mixed by Greg Reely (Fear Factory, Machine Head, DevilDriver) and Ahti Kortelainen (Sentenced, Sonarta Arctica). Decadence marks the first official full-length release from NOTHNEGAL. Decadence is currently available for pre-order on Season of Mist's e-shop as a limited digipak edition. Each copy from the first pressing of the album will come with a unique code that can allow you to win a trip to the band’s stomping grounds… the Maldives! The 5-day journey will take place at the Fihalhohi Island Resort in Summer 2012. The winner will receive one return flight to the Maldives, an all-inclusive stay (including scuba-diving and other water sport activities) for two people and a meet and greet with the band. More details can be found in the booklet of the album. NOTHNEGAL boasts a dark melancholic streak flowing through their modern melodic death metal sound, also weaving in very subtle touches of industrial and progressive elements. NOTHNEGAL was founded by guitarists (and cousins) Hilarl and Fufu on the capital island Malé in 2006 after leaving their previous group Mortuary. The cousins are supported by Six Feet Under, Dååth, ex-Chimaira drummer Kevin Talley and Finnish keyboard player Marco Sneck (Kalmah, Poisonblack). Decadence demonstrates a quick evolution of NOTHNEGAL from their previously released, self-produced four track EP. Mixed by Finnish producer Anssi Kippo (Children of Bodom, Norther), Antidote of Realism (2009) catapulted the Maldivians into the international scene, who successfully supported Finntroll and Samael during their 2010 European tour covering 25 cities in 12 countries. Decadence is poised to position NOTHNEGAL above fan’s expectations for just another exotic, eclectic, foreign act, offering a melodic, yet crushing door into the minds of the men behind the helm. This may be the first time you are hearing about NOTHNEGAL, but it certainly will not be the last.

The record has been quite a challenge for us as we have taken time to do a lot of experimentation on the sound, shifting more towards thrash and progressive metal with industrial elements making it entirely different from the sound we had on our 2009 four- track demo, Antidote Of Realism. With a completely new and original sound and attitude, we feel like we’re starting again from scratch as we believe we’ve finally discovered our sound with Decadence.” Decadence is currently available for pre-order on Season of Mist's e-shop as a limited digipak edition.

For example, metal is believed to be satanic, or to celebrate and inspire violence; the fans are seen to be angry or depressive. This study uses surveys of 62 heavy metal fans, and other relevant research, to undermine such stereotypes. The sound of heavy metal, the lyrics of metal songs, and the audience of heavy metal music are analyzed separately. Heavy metal fans ultimately are not dissuaded by misconceptions about the music, and continue to place high value on its community, purpose and musical creativity. ALIVE OR JUST BREATHING: A REVIEW AND CONFRONTATION OF METAL’S MOST POPULAR STEREOTYPES There are very few things in life that take complete priority over anything else.

  • Classification of Heavy Metal Subgenres with Machine Learning
    Thomas Rönnberg Classification of Heavy Metal Subgenres with Machine Learning Master’s Thesis in Information Systems Supervisors: Dr. Markku Heikkilä Asst. Prof. József Mezei Faculty of Social Sciences, Business and Economics Åbo Akademi University Åbo 2020 Subject: Information Systems Writer: Thomas Rönnberg Title: Classification of Heavy Metal Subgenres with Machine Learning Supervisor: Dr. Markku Heikkilä Supervisor: Asst. Prof. József Mezei Abstract: The music industry is undergoing an extensive transformation as a result of growth in streaming data and various AI technologies, which allow for more sophisticated marketing and sales methods. Since consumption patterns vary by different factors such as genre and engagement, each customer segment needs to be targeted uniquely for maximal efficiency. A challenge in this genre-based segmentation method lies in today’s large music databases and their maintenance, which have shown to require exhausting and time-consuming work. This has led to automatic music genre classification (AMGC) becoming the most common area of research within the growing field of music information retrieval (MIR). A large portion of previous research has been shown to suffer from serious integrity issues. The purpose of this study is to re-evaluate the current state of applying machine learning for the task of AMGC. Low-level features are derived from audio signals to form a custom-made data set consisting of five subgenres of heavy metal music. Different parameter sets and learning algorithms are weighted against each other to derive insights into the success factors. The results suggest that admirable results can be achieved even with fuzzy subgenres, but that a larger number of high-quality features are needed to further extend the accuracy for reliable real-life applications.

  • Mainstreaming Bicycling in Winter Cities: the Case of Oulu, Finland
    Mainstreaming Bicycling in Winter Cities: The case of Oulu, Finland. by Jeffrey Pratte A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF CITY PLANNING Department of City Planning University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2011 by Jeffrey Pratte Mainstreaming bicycling in winter cities: The case of Oulu, Finland. Jeffrey Pratte Abstract Bicycles offer an efficient, emission-free mode of transportation, particularly ideal for shorter distances in urban areas. Consequently, bicycling is increasingly being perceived as a viable and important part of the urban transportation mix. Despite increased progress and attention, few cities have successfully incorporated cycling as a key feature of their urban policy, or substantially increased cycling’s modal share. Meanwhile, research suggests that climate and weather influence cycling and transportation in urban areas, with cold climates in particular reducing the likelihood of cycling. This research examines how bicycling can be mainstreamed in winter cities, thereby improving cycling conditions and increasing modal share. Oulu, Finland serves as a case study. Located at 65 degrees latitude, Oulu has a twenty percent modal share for cycling. A close examination how cycling was mainstreamed is presented and synthesized. The goal is to present Oulu’s experience in bicycle planning as a model for other winter cities, particularly in Canada. i Mainstreaming bicycling in winter cities: The case of Oulu, Finland. Jeffrey Pratte Acknowledgements I would like to acknowledge and thank the many people who have offered continued support throughout this project, including family, friends and colleagues.

  • Norther, Hypocrisy,Dimmu Borgir 21.10.03 / Köln
    Norther, Hypocrisy,Dimmu Borgir 21.10.03 / Köln / Live Music Hall !!! Die Tour zur neuen Scheibe von Dimmu "Death Cult Armageddon", der Nachfolger der "Puritanical Euphoric Misantropia", mit Hypocrisy als Support. Etwa um 18.30Uhr angekommen standen schon gut 200 Schwarze Gestalten in einer Schlange vor der LMH. Zum Glück gab es 2 Einlässe: einer für Leute die Gutscheine hatten und der andere für Leute die Original Karten hatten. Glücklicherweise zählten wir zu letzterem! So konnten wir schon um 18.50 Uhr in den Vorhof zur Halle, während alle anderen sich bis 19 Uhr gedulden mussten um ihre Karten umzutauschen. Als die Pforte geöffnet wurde, stürmten direkt einige Fanatiker zur Bühne. Dann war warten angesagt; bis 20.10Uhr. Norther betraten die Bühne. Nun, wenn man nicht wüsste das es Northern waren hätte man durchaus glauben können es waren Children of Bodom. Absolut der selbe Stil! Der einzige Höhepunkt von Norther war das letzte Stück : The Final Countdown. Die Umbaupause ging sogar recht flott! Hypocrisy betraten die Bühne und legten direkt mit Roswell 47 los, besser hätte es kaum anfangen können! Direkt moshte die Menge los! Es wurde fleissig gebangt und vereinzelt gedived. Die Jungs spielten noch unter anderem A Fire in the Sky. Leider war der ganze Auftritt viel zu kurz... Als vorletztes Lied spielten Peter Tägtgren und Co. noch ein Song vom Nachfolger des Catch 22 Albums. Das Lied war ein wenig ruhiger als gewohnt, aber sehr gut! Nach dem nahezu perfektem Auftritt, ohne viel Gepose, waren Dimmu Borgir an der Reihe, die sich schon sehr ins Zeug legen mussten, um das zu toppen.
