All,

after 4 years of the original diy CD-r, the MARBLEBOG/DRAUGURZ split has a decent CD edition now and also some more releases are in progress.

- Excerpt from the latest newsletter of the Canadian label Tour de Garde:

"The MARBLEBOG/DRAUGURZ "Split" CD is the CD version of their split tape that was produced by Folterkammer Records back in 2006. This new CD version includes one extra song from DRAUGURZ. For those of you who wouldn't be familiar with DRAUGURZ you're missing a great Brazilian band, one of the best southern horde. DRAUGURZ are around since 1999 and their first demo was produced by the mighty Autistiartili records. Their Black Metal is crude, raw and goes straight to the point when it comes to hateful segments. DRAUGURZ are also able to create meditative and melodic Black Metal that recalls the early days of BURZUM. As for MARBLEBOG, they present us completely different material than on their previous TOUR DE GARDE release, "Wind of Moors, which is consisting of Ambient music. On this split MARBLEBOG performs their usual minimalist, atmospheric and epic Black Metal. Needless to say that TOUR DE GARDE is very proud to present this release."

- New Scream Industry (also from Québec, Canada) will soon release the CD version of the MARBLEBOG/VORKUTA split EP which has already been released as a 7" vinyl by the US label Autopsy Kitchen Records and on tape through Brasilian record label Hammer of Damnation. The MCD will be sent to the press in a few weeks.

- Some more releases are to be done as well, and the band is starting rehearsals for the new MARBLEBOG full-length this Autumn in Germany. After the live appearances in Chicago and Colorado this June, the band plans to return to the US for a tour next year. More info later.
