News About the New Magma Album

Steve Feigenbaum just posted this email message from Stella Vander on the avant-progressive Yahoo group:

E-Re will be released the 1st week of November. It will also include a 60' making of' DVD.

It will be NTSC, no region coding and with English sub-titles.

---

So yeah, discuss. Personally, I've been waiting for this album since last October, I hope it's different than KA, but still just as good. That's asking for a lot, but I think that it's possible, especially since it's been in the works for 30+ years.

I've heard the future album played live in it's entirety. It's dark, repetitive and menacing, without that friendly sound from K.A. I'm not sure whether I'm going to like it, but it's definitely going to be strong.

That's putting it mildly...this and the Gong album within a couple months of each other?  How, other than a Gong & Magma trip to Penn State to put on a day-long concert, could things get any better? Big smile

wow is that the cover? it looks similar to something a black metal band would put out...this is def going to be a dark album.

edit: hey wait, i call bullshit! first of all, the album name is spelt wrong, second: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_BNP90JOg4yU/SoAA08BqKPI/AAAAAAAAAKY/MXeCe9o0thY/s1600-h/xxonlcuc.jpg

this seems more like it.

^ Can you give the source of that photo, please? It looks like a Magma traditional cover indeed, I would rather like the sarcophagus one being used.

Myself I took the cover from one of the leading Zeuhl blogs: http://kohntarkosz.blogspot.com/2009/09/cover-art-for-emehntehtt-re.html

yeah that's where I got it from. personally i think the traditional one looks a bit more Magma-esque than the sarcophagus anyway...not even counting the medallian part of the picture.

Just as a little useless hyping thingamajig, for those of you who have heard the song live already, what extracts of other songs have you heard?

For example, I remember hearing some of Rinde (from Attahk), and I'm pretty sure some from Zombies (from Udu Wudu). Anything else, and maybe in what order too...

Also what do you think of them using extracts of many songs? I read somewhere that the "story" was spread out over Attahk and Udu Wudu anyway, but I kind of get the feeling that there's going to be a little medley going on rather than a complete work, opinions?

I heard Emehnteht-Re (Extrait No. 2) on Udu Wudu as well.  Tongue

Regarding whether or not it'll be a complete new work, I have a feeling that Christian and crew won't just give us a medley, I'm sure it'll be an independent work.  Sure, the other pieces will be worked in, but I feel like they'll be altered, plus it'll include the material not available in any studio work, all the stuff they've worked out live.

 Can't imagine the new record without the Magma logo on the cover
