Song A Day: Tom G. Warrior

A to Z 2K17: T is for Triptykon

Band: Triptykon
Song: Tree Of Suffocating Souls
Album: Melana Chasmata
Genre: Gothic Metal, Black Metal, Death Metal

Released almost exactly 3 years ago, Melana Chasmata made some waves in the Metal community. While I think his name is a little funny, frontman Tom G. Warrior really has a talent for throwing some really dark music together.

Honestly I had a really hard time picking today's song. There was the absolutely stunningly beautiful video for Shatter, but I had posted it before. Then there was Boleskine House which is eerily wonderful, especially when you get the female vocals harmonizing.

I decided to hit this song though, because it had a music video and Boleskine didn't.

Please enjoy this wonderfully dark song, is just nice music.

Side note, you know H R Giger, the mind behind the design of the alien in Alien? He designed some of Tom G Warrior guitars and all of Triptykon's album covers. Obviously he's dead now so I'm not sure who they'll go to for the next album's art, but we'll see if they can live up to the art of the rather deranged Giger's work.

Triptykon - Shatter

One thing about black metal bands that is alternately interesting and really stupid, is that they all have to pick weird stage names. Some of these are interesting, such as Hellhammer and Necrobutcher (Mayhem), but them some are just stupid like Satanic Slaughter (a.k.a. Tom G. Warrior a.k.a. Thomas Gabriel Fischer)

Mister Warrior is who we're visiting today with his current band, Triptykon. I literally know nothing about these guys, other than their singer has weird taste in stage names and that he's from Switzerland.

They have a pretty cool video though, so you might want to watch it rather than just listen.

Death/ Doom/ Black metal. Gotta love it.

What I'm about

I am Noah, king of casual english; One of those bloggers that just doesn't know how to string a proper sentence together to save his life. I really apologize for those of you that will hate that, apparently my honors in english just didn't stick.

I like everything from Satanic Thrash to Top 40s trash, so I'll probably hit on at least one song that you like someday.

Let's be real though, my main pull is Death Metal and Rap, so you'll see a decent amount of that since those are the two industries I mainly follow.

Schedule and Stuff

The posts go live at 12 am EST. If they don't, I probably wrote them the night before and fell asleep before actually clicking on the publish button. It's all good though.

Music wise I mostly pull from what I like. I'm totally open to suggestions in the comments, so if there's some genre you want to hear more of just let me know and I'll do what I can.

Some of this music might be offensive to you. Apologies, but it'll probably happen. Heck, 6 or 7 years ago I'd probably be appalled at what I'm listening to nowadays, haha

I'll try to always tag for language if the song has it though, so you can at least make sure not to listen to if around younger ears if that's something that concerns you.
