Demilich

The compilation albums

They will come out, eventually, and hopefully this winter (2008/2009). The mailing list for notifying on them has over 1000 emails, so the 397 copies of the LP will definitely be sold only to those on the list. Okay?

Rarities

Two rehearsal tapes added to the Down section.

v34ish6ng/van2s1ing

The upcoming compilation CD and LP will be released this year (2007 now, in January it will be 2008). If you want to get more info, add your email address in the Prod section.

The final gig Final gig poster

The final Demilich gig is set to 2006-07-22, in Henry's Pub, Kuopio, Finland, with Deathbound supporting us. We'll play the whole Nespithe album, the new song, two songs for the first demo, and a the two unreleased tracks. Don't miss it, as we will never be back again. No tickets, but the age limit is 18.

MySpace

The Demilich MySpace page isn't run by the band, and the owner of it doesn't even publish the messages that tell about the fact. Also, the gig schedule there is an outdated mess. I don't really care about it, but still, remember that the most current info on the gigs can be found here and at the forum. And if you really need to use MySpace, head at my MySpace space.

The States (updated: 2006-05-02)

We're coming to play in your backyard (if you happen to have an US club there.) Here's what the current list of US gigs looks like:

After getting back to Finland, we'll play the last gig in Kuopio. The band will split up then.

v34ish6ng 0f emptiness / em9t2ness of van2s1ing

Demilich is not back, but we've been doing something behind your backs.

There will be a CD called "v34ish6ng 0f emptiness" and an LP called "em9t2ness of van2s1ing". They'll mainly consist of the familiar demos, but we've been practicing for the recordings of extra material. We'll record two rehearsal songs from 1992 (one for the CD, another one for the LP) and one completely new song (for the CD only).

The LP will be limited to 397 copies, each autographed and numbered, and no more copies will be pressed, ever. The CD has no such limits.

The release dates will be announced later. We're talking about spring 2006, though.

We've also practiced some of the old songs. Even if we're not going to start throwing gigs everywhere, we will have a couple of them. The dates and places will be announced when all's certain.

This won't last long. After a while, we'll leave the band and you alone, and go on with other projects. At least that's the plan. 99.9% sure, as I've said before.

In case you have questions, or if you want to tell us how much this all stank and will stink, go and write a message.

How and why

During last five years I've received propositions about releasing the demos, both on vinyl and CDs. I disliked the idea, but finally (and quit happily) gave up on one condition.

Since 1995, I've felt Demilich never came to an end. It simply floated away. I wanted to finalize it. Albums with mere demos wouldn't feel like a proper end, so I required that we get to record something old and something new to end it all up with. We couldn't have achieved a suitable end back in 90's, so we'll give it another try now.

Some people wanted us to come up with a new album, but that would be too much. I don't really want to mess up with the history that much. Some people wanted us to do nothing, but unfortunately that didn't fit in my views on what Demilich has to be in the end. Mr. Tr00 Kvlt Member, you can simply ignore these albums and imagine we never did anything new.

All in all, Demilich is not your project. It's ours. It's okay to like it, or dislike it, but you cannot dictate it. I'd hate myself if we went on doing material and touring for years, but I'd also hate myself if I didn't try this. It's either a good suicide or a bad suicide, and we'll find out about it soon.
