Witchhammer Productions is an underground label base in Bangkok City, Thailand managed by some one Heavy Metal Maniac named, Jerasak C. The very first releases, and the label’s initial start, were releasing cassettes with some really great looking foldout covers. Yes, professionally printed and factory manufactured cassettes is the bloody game of this veteran Siamese label. Most tape covers were U shaped, no lousy J cards here with no inlays. Fuck that shit! Expect nothing here but only die hard hand-numbered tapes willing to possess you, got you staring for hours and will make you take them anywhere you go. B/W or Full Color, matte or super shiny papers depleting the ozone layer doesn’t really matter as long as it doesn’t fail someone’s expectations! Witchhammer mainly covers a variety of Metal Genres. From Inhumate to Debodified to Nunslaughter to Thy Primordial… you name it! Of course, similar label that is releasing the same quality is no other than, InCoffin Productions, although InCoffin is almost exclusive in releasing Black Metal bands only – Witchhammer does the variety. Nowadays, WHP is also releasing CDs. Still, hand-numbered and still got that foldout covers only this time it’s bigger, of course! Anyone wanting some collaboration and possible licensing of their CDs to be release in Cassette format in Thailand should get in touch. As for trading experiences, WHP is fast, reliable and is packing that stuff very well – safe and mint arriving in your doorsteps!
LANGSUYR was created by Bentara and Azmaniac in the mid of 1991, and they've been only a two-piece band since then until they found it hard to rehearse when Bentara's playing the guitar and singing while Azmaniac handling the drums. So, they've decided to recruit Azlan, who handles the vocals and Ajiz playing the drums. Azmaniac then became a rhythm guitarist. With this line up, in 1993, they've recorded their one and only demo "Occultus Mysticism" which gained a wide response worldwide. People tend to know LANGSUYR better from it's "Occultus Mysticism". Recorded in Universal Studio, Klang, this demo perhaps was the best ever produced by a Malaysian band at that time. The demo was sold out rapidly and an agreement was made between LANGSUYR and EAST GOTHIC PRODUCTIONS to re-release the demo professionally for 500 copies. And again, in 1994, the "Occultus Mysticism" hits the street and sold out in a short time, and there are still demands on it.
On some point, I may have a few questions regarding these young metal people that want to walk back in the old school tradition. Morbid Tales is a fanzine from Canada, made by a 20+ year old girl living somewhere in Ontario named Annick. This one is 62 pages and printed in A5 size. One of the first things to notice is the empty space left open in the pages. She could maximize the space and this one might be coming out in 40 pages only. Next, she should at least add more reviews of new releases. All these review on old stuff (call it classic) doesn’t make sense to me anymore. Content wise, it isn’t the best for me. Interviews with Apokalyptic Raids, Onslaught, Slaughter, Sacrifice and some live reports in which she visited herself.

We changed the band name from past band "COMPROMISE YOU NEED" in 1996. This band is formally started as "COFFINS" by UCHINO and NEGISHI. We had aimed at the Heavy Junk sound influenced by SWANS and SCORN at the beginning of start. After carrying out a member change several times, YOU will join this band as Drums in 1999. Under the member idea and play style influence of those days, band musicality is also gradually concentrated to Doom rock sound like CATHEDRAL and KYUSS. We had piled up the rehearsal without doing live for a while. But, as each member began activity on other bands, COFFINS will once stop activity after all around 2000. We did the rehearsal start towards band re-starting in 2003. This band musicality changes to the dark Doom/Death sound which used as the base CELTICFROST/HELLHAMMER like WINTER and DIVINE EVE which is also the idea of UCHINO in re-starting. In connection with it, UCHINO and YOU left the other band which were being played together till then, and concentrated on COFFINS. We also replaced other members and make SENTOU join as new bassist, and do the new start of release and live activity formally.
