Countless / Absidia

Vegan Straight Edge 90's Style Metalcore Band from Germany!

They started in '98 under the name Countless and released a really great Demo Tape

on Our World Records in '99 - changed their name to Absidia and released an even

better CD on Per Koro records in '00 - melodic, yet gloomy Metalcore!

A Split 7" with Maroon, featuring a rerecorded version of an old Countless Song and another

Split Lp with Six Reasons To Kill, followed. In 2003 they called quits and members

went on to bands like The Crimson Divine, Teamkiller and Since The Day...

Countless - Dawn Of All Evil (1999)

Absidia - Written In Minor Key (2000)

Absidia & Maroon - Split (2001)

Absidia & Six Reasons To Kill - Morphology Of Fear (2002)

Ashfall / Contrition (Fall Of Serenity) / Miasmata

Ashfall & Contrition & Miasmata - Split EP (1997)

Just got this awesome Split 7", featuring three great but criminally underrated and unknown bands,

so I tried to hunt down their stuff + some information and give it to you!

Ashfall was a short-lived dutch project - some kind of christian metalcore. 

They havent released anything else as far as I know (tell me if you find a demo tape).

Contrition were from Germany and already released a Self Titled EP
during the time the Split EP came out and also released a full length after that.

They later changed their name to Fall Of Serenity and got some fame...

Miasmata were from the netherlands as well and just formed for contributing these 2 Songs,

nevertheless theyre my favorite band from the Split.

They also recorded for a full length some years later, but unfortunately broke up before it was released.

However, Hectic Records decided to release it anyway in 2011, so here is, 

to my knowledge, everything these three bands released!

Miasmata - Requiem (Unreleased - 2001)

Contrition - Self Titled (1996)

Contrition - Transitory (1998)

Contrition - Burst The Chains (Song from the Animal Truth Comp - 1998)

And cause it's pretty hard to get as well, the Animal Truth Comp itself!

Fall Of Serenity & Heaven Shall Burn - Split (1999)

Fall Of Serenity - Smoldering Doom (2000)

Fall Of Serenity - Grey Man's Requiem (2001)

Fall Of Serenity - Royal Killing (2004)

Fall Of Serenity - Bloodred Salvation (2006)

Fall Of Serenity - The Crossfire (2007)

Vengeance Of Gaia / Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon

VoG was a militant XVX Band from north england, they existed from '95 to '97

As far as I know they only released this (pretty hard to get) Demo Tape.

Later on, when some of them dropped the XVX they started TSUA

(some of them went on to bands like Vorhees, The Horror, Born From Pain and Break It Up as well).

However, the TSUA stuff, which I like musically more, isnt that hard to get,

you can dl their whole discography over at Unchecked Aggression if you rather feel like it.

But Id like to have it a bit sorted, so Ill post them as well!

After TSUA members went on to bands like:

Grace, Jinn, The Last Chance, The Vs. Project, ...

Vengeance Of Gaia - Demo (1997)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon - Self Titled (1999)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon - Demo (2000)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon - Shallow Grave (Song from The Erudition Project Comp - 2000)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon - Road Mutants (Death Angel Cover - 2000)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon & The Autumn Year - Split (2001)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon & xCanaanx - Split (2002)

Thirty Seconds Until Armageddon - God Mode (Unreleased - 2002)

Ecorage

Shortlived German Hardline Metal Band, formerly known as Eternal Resistance,

but as far as I know they never recorded anything under that name... did they?

They even did recordings for a 10" on Alveran Records as well,

but split up before it was released - in fact before the tracks were even mastered,

according to what I have heard... unfortunately they seem to be completely lost nowadays!

(Check out this blogspot post for some cool pics and information)

Members were active in Vegan Militia and Poweredge as well

(tell me if you got their recordings!)
