The same year, Eilertsen and Ruch recorded the '' Grymyrk'' demo, which had a great impact on the black metal scene and, together with Mayhem guitarist Euronymous, coined the Norwegian black metal riffing, as Darkthrone drummer Fenriz points ...

Thorns (Thorns Album)
''Thorns'' is the debut studio album by Norwegian black metal band Thorns. It was released in 2001, through Moonfog Productions. The album features guest appearances from Satyr (of Satyricon), Aldrahn (of Dødheimsgard) and Hellhammer (of Mayhem). Stylistically, ''Thorns'' is quite different from both ''Trøndertun'' and the first Thorns demo, '' Grymyrk''. While it retains the eerie riff structures of those early releases, it displays a strong industrial influence, particularly on tracks like "Shifting Channels" and "Underneath the Universe, Part 1". Samples The samples "Jesus, what a mind-job" and "So, you're here to save the world" in the song "Existence" are taken from the 1999 film ''The Matrix''. Track listing Personnel * Aldrahn (Bjørn Dencker) – vocals * Satyr (Sigurd Wongraven) – vocals, production, mixing, mastering * Snorre W. Ruch – guitar, bass guitar, keyboards, programming, vocals on the song "Vortex", production, mixing, mastering * Hellham ...

Synopsis Humanity has colonized the solar system and moved outward to begin exploring the far reaches of the galaxy.

Chalk, unknown to all around him, is a kind of psychic vampire who draws sustenance from the emotions of others, particularly those of pain and trauma. Though he enjoys playing his inner circle of assistants against each other as a sort of daily snack, Chalk's true nourishment comes from the dramas he orchestrates for his audience. Chalk's latest drama involves the pairing of Minner Burris, a space explorer who was captured and surgically altered by aliens on the planet Manipool, and Lona Kelvin, a 17-year-old girl who donated eggs for a fertility experi ...

Description In common language the terms are used more or less interchangeably, but in botanical terms, thorns are derived shoots (so that they may or may not be branched, they may or may not have leaves, and they may or may not arise from a bud),Simpson, M.
