J'aide pas mais je pense intéressant de poster ceci : Il vient juste de le déclarer :
Vlad Tepes (r.i.p) statement :
After more than 15 years of hibernative supervision of what would eventually happen to our
Spawn Vlad Tepes, this project which was at the time meant to
Return to
Darkness was in
Fact hardly sought after, some ready to spend hundreds for it, it spread like desease, « thanks » to the
Human Nature and internet technology which instead of eradicating this testimony of the truth to come, just ran after it like insects after a too bright and burning light.
Well,
Vlad Tepes will all the same
Return to
Darkness, sooner or later, but now it is time for me to take back the inheritance I left uncultivated behind me, seed for many bootleggers trying to revive this once was
Darkness (or their purse should I say)... I'm taking back all this, even if I have (and will) use the human tools available to me. I'm taking back what is mine, for the ones who would think they could own and distribute our Art were
Far worth doing it.
For all the ones still feeling worthy, after almost 20 years of wait, expecting, digging rumors, listening to and appreciating xxxth generations bootlegged copies of our work (what a shame), just stand still as your wait will soon come to an
End for I will make our Black Legions
Metal work
Vlad Tepes available in its still unreleased
True shape.
For that you'll assist to the
Spawn of a new
Tool of mine I named VarvLoar1476 through which all the future releases, with the precious help of
Drakkar Productions, will unleash again all the
Despise of what Black
Metal (r.i.p)
HAS become, as foreseen 20 years ago ; finally the image of what the bigger part of humanity is,
Cancer of this
Earth, happy to get straight into the wall...
Some of you certainly wondered what was approved until now for label release, here it is :
« War
Funeral March » 1st
1994 demo cassette with FullMoon prod. Limited to 1000.
Vlad Tepes/Bèlkètre « March to
The Black Holocaust » 1995 TE02 Split-CD with Embassy prod. Limited to 1000 hand-numbered copies.
« War
Funeral March » 1996 TE03 MCD re-issue with Embassy prod. Limited to 500.
Torgeist/Vlad Tepes « Black Legions
Metal » 1996 Split, DKCD02 + DKLP09 re-issues with
Drakkar prod.
That's all ! Everything else you'll find is not approved and doesn't contain original material at all !
Our second demo « Celtic Poetry » was not sold, only traded or given. The same with our third demo « Dans Notre Chute... ». The same with our fourth and epitaph demo «
Morte Lune ». It exists less than
Ten original copies of this last one which were only given, not traded (which owner didn't respect our will not to spread this at the time ? Anyway, this doesn't matter anymore today).
The same goes for our other intermediate works (The
Return of the Unweeping I & II -this last one often wrongly called « rehearsal '95 or '96 »-, Into Frosty Madness, & Black Legions
Metal cover demo -often wrongly called «
The Black Legions »-).
Now
Drakkar Productions, one and only and no other,
HAS been given the right to distribute our works as they historically believed and
Truly supported us and our choices for 20 years. So the re-issues of « March to
The Black Holocaust » & « War
Funeral March » are approved as well.
Consider all the other early 2013
Drakkar releases as intermediate semi-official releases.
Of course, all of what is coming will be « official » and definitive, sourced and remixed/remastered from my own 4 tx
Master tapes, necessarily protected by human (and worldwide) laws as I don't have
Nuclear Power under my finger to prevent from that. Nobody can put a copyright on
Darkness, but on a fucking record, we can !
Don't search for bootlegs anymore, don't spend hundreds for shit anymore ! We'll make it simple for all of you seeking after us, there will finally be only one source for all Vlad Tepes material : Drakkar !
