ANTIGAMA'S "RESONANCE" – THE SECOND COMING OF GRINDCORE
ACCORDING TO UK'S METAL HAMMER
British Metal Hammer magazine have named Antigama's newest effort
"Resonance" one of the top 10
albums of next grind generation. Chosen along the bands like Nasum,
Pig Destroyer, Rotten Sound, Phobia, 324, Mumakil, Deathbound, Narcosis
and Leng T'che, "Antigama are a grindcore band custom designed
for the future".
MH's Dom Lawson wrote: "Poland has
long been a fertile breeding ground for exceptional death metal bands
but Antigama may well be the first out-and-out grindcore band to emerge
from the country and achieve global renown. Formed in Warsaw in 2001,
the band's sound has evolved from straightforward beginnings to the
staggeringly precise aggressive blizzard of wildly disparate sonic
elements showcased on their fourth and latest album "Resonance".
Not afraid to embrace glossy production values, Antigama are a grindcore
band custom designed for the future."

05/03/2007 ANTIGAMA
AND DRUGS OF FAITH TO TEAM UP ON FOR A SPLIT DISC
Antigama from Warsaw, Poland and Drugs Of Faith from Virginia, USA
team up for a split disc inspired by the Napalm Death / Coalesce split,
In Tongues We Speak. Following in the footsteps of that bi-national
split of grindcore and hardcore, Selfmadegod Records from Poland is
poised to release the Antigama / Drugs Of Faith split 3"CD on
an eager world audience.
The three songs representing Antigama's share
of the CD are the last ones that the band is issuing before the awaited
Relapse debut full-length, Resonance, which, as Relapse describes
on its website, is "certain to drive the listener to frenzied
extremes never before experienced." Antigama turns in two original
songs packed full of its trademark sound and a cover of a classic
Goblin song.
As for Drugs Of Faith, this power trio delivers
three new tracks that offer a taste of what the future full-length
on Selfmadegod may sound like. The band has new surprises up its sleeve,
having churned out spanking new material for this team up with Antigama
that takes its sound further down the road hinted at with the self-titled
mini-album, both musically and lyrically.
Not content to have
two bands from the same obvious genres or sharing the same
influences go head to head on a split, as often happens, Antigama
and Drugs Of Faith's individual sounds play against each other, resulting
in a jolt for the listener as the tracks alternate between the two
bands on Selfmadegod's latest release. With Antigama awaiting the
arrival of its Relapse full-length and Drugs Of Faith supporting the
LP version of its mini-album (which features two bonus tracks), the
split 3"CD should be a must for fans of either or both groups.
An old hand at steering grindcore in the studio,
Szymon Czech (Nyia, Third Degree, Antigama), has mastered this double-barrel
disc due on March 26 2007.
Tracklisting:
1. Antigama – Herd
2. Drugs Of Faith – Churchianity
3. Antigama – Gift
4. Drugs Of Faith – Memoranda
5. Antigama – Zombi
6. Drugs Of Faith – Phantom

ANTIGAMA ' Resonance' CD & LP PRE ORDER!
On their Relapse debut, Warsaw's Antigama are firing on all
cylinders, combining the raw-power of old-school grindcore with the
spastic acrobatics of modern technical metal. Roto-coaster drumming
blasts through rough, angular riffing, creating a chaotic vortex of
apocalyptic aggression and post-industrial spite. Resonance is
a work of precision insanity, catchy misdirection, and psychotic momentum;
certain to drive the listener to frenzied extremes never before experienced.
